You didn't land here by accident.
Something brought you to this page today. Maybe you’re hurting. Maybe you’re lost. Maybe you just need someone to tell you the truth without wrapping it in toxic positivity and a bow.
Whatever it is — the universe has something for you.
The Universe Decides is a daily healing ritual unlike anything you’ve ever seen on a wellness site. It’s not a quiz. It’s not a horoscope. It’s not generic self-help dressed up in pretty fonts.
It’s your Soulicine — a daily dose of exactly what your soul needs today.
Here’s how it works:
- Close your eyes and take one slow breath
- Spin the wheel and let the universe do the rest
- Land on one of 11 elemental Soulicines — Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Aether, Shadow, Seed, Wake Up, Moon, Transformation, or Starseed
- Receive your reading — a raw emotional truth written just for where you are right now, a sacred ritual you can do today, a quote from Sam, and an affirmation to carry with you
- Come back tomorrow — your Soulicine changes daily
This was built by someone who survived addiction, incarceration, rock bottom, and the long quiet road back to herself. It was built for you — the one who feels too much, who has been through too much, and who is still somehow, stubbornly, showing up.

F.I.O.A. And Find Out
FOIA & Find Out explores the declassified files they never expected ordinary people to read—CIA consciousness experiments, psychological operations, hidden human potential, frequency research, and truths stranger than fiction. But this series isn’t about fear. It’s about taking what we uncover and using it to think deeper, heal harder, awaken fully, and become far more difficult to manipulate.

These are the best over-ear headphones I have ever owned. I am obsessed. I have never found anything that even comes close to these bad boys.
I got this for my son for his big 6th birthday, and I have got to tell you- it's pretty amazing. You can play with or without water. It has squirt guns! My kids would play for days if I let them. This is highly recommended. The best part is that I can get in on the fun because this thing is that fierce. Let me know if you decide to check it out, and if you do. Thank you, and you can thank me later.
This is THE best soap! It has an awesome little rope look, so you just hang it near your sink and rub your fingers over it. I get so many comments about it. Seriously, you will love it!
This is my go-to shampoo & conditioner set. I love everything about it and I only use the good stuff.
This set SAVED my shower. I had so many bottles and whatnot on the floor of my shower and I can't believe the difference these made and the price for the quality is unbeatable.
If you're like me and like to wear your grounding shoes or Hey Dudes, then these are the answer to your prayers. I can't praise them enough.
This is honestly one of my go-to's for gifts. I have purchased it for both of my neices, my sister, my friends, my mom and every single one of them raved about it.

My Story
I wasn’t supposed to end up here.
At least that’s what the statistics would have predicted.
I spent nearly twenty years battling addiction, cycling through jail cells, courtrooms, broken promises, and consequences. I watched people I loved lose their lives. I buried dreams, opportunities, and versions of myself I wasn’t sure I would ever get back. There were moments when hope felt impossibly far away.
Yet somehow, beneath all the chaos, a small part of me refused to die.
That small spark became a decision. That decision became a new direction. And over time, that direction became an entirely new life. Today, I am a mother, homeowner, coach, entrepreneur, writer, and advocate. More importantly, I am living proof that a person’s past does not determine their future.
Everything I create is built on one belief: progress matters more than perfection. Because transformation doesn’t happen all at once. It happens through thousands of small choices, made over and over again, until one day you look around and realize you’ve become someone you once only dreamed of being.
