💻✨ Because healing is sacred—and Fridays are for freedom.

Welcome to our educational and healing-forward series dedicated to understanding, surviving, and transforming the impact of psychological abuse.

Whether you’re recovering from toxic relationships, family dysfunction, or simply trying to understand patterns that no longer serve you—this series is for you.

“Anchor in the Storm” is a reflection on stillness, safety, and the rare moments when the noise inside finally stops. Created from feeling, not thought—this piece invites you to pause, breathe, and just be.

This one is for Dr. Sammi!

Thank you for putting up with me every 11 days, letting your staff take a break to watch Nic during my appointments.. and most of all: being the only man in my life who doesn’t drive me crazy.

Were going on 5 years buddy… Happy Anniversary from the Overland Girls.

Each month, we honor a public figure who has lived through pain, addiction, grief, or illness—and chose to keep going. Or who has dedicated their life to humanitarian work, social justice, or simply being a light in the dark—for no reason other than the good of everyone else.

• These are not perfect people.

• They’re people who remind us that healing isn’t polished, and survival isn’t weakness.

• That recovery is not shameful.

That you can carry trauma, addiction, and unbearable loss—and still choose love. Kindness. Art. Sobriety. Life.

But here’s the truth:

• You don’t need a platform or a paycheck to be someone worth honoring.

• You don’t need followers, or fame, or even stability to be a good person.

• You can be rich.

• You can be broke.

• You can be homeless.

• You can have a 15-car garage and an espresso machine that tweets.

Or none of that. You can have a lucrative career… or be sick, struggling, messy, angry, grieving, and unsure— and still be worthy. There is no entrance fee to being human.

Emily Post—yes, the etiquette queen—says good manners rest on just three things: Honesty. Respect. Consideration. That’s it. Not wealth. Not class. Not perfection. It’s about how you move through the world—with intention, with compassion, and with humanity. We believe recovery is the same way.

So while we’re lifting up these icons, we want you to remember this: You don’t need to be anyone but you. You are still human.

And you are more than enough.

If you think someone should be recognized, email us and tell us why!

Walking through pain, staying sober in a sea of wine, good friends, love, laughter, and finding peace one small choice at a time.
