Hi! I'm Jackie and my blog is about helping people grow in order to find happiness in life. The reason I'm doing this is because I've had many struggles that were the cause of a lifetime of unhappiness. I've done a lot of therapy, read many books, and watched days and days of Oprah  and I finally have found happiness.

I thoroughly believe that starts with being honest with ourselves and each other. I'm sharing my life experiences (parenting, relationships, divorce, marriage, etc) and the things I've learned so people going through similar struggles feel they are not alone.

I realized that everyone has a story of triumph through perseverance so I wanted to open up my blog to those who have a story to share. I want to build a community of people that understand what it means to - not only survive, but thrive regardless of the conditions.

It's okay if you don't feel you're a good writer. I can help with that if you want me to, plus it's more about getting the message out, than it is about how it's written. We can work on that to make it a "good read".
