About the Author
I used to think that when I turned 30 that I wouldn’t have much more to look forward to in life as I thought I had already hit my peak, but after completing my own 100 day challenge and writing this book I realized that my journey was just beginning. When I started writing this book, I had just graduated from the Human Services Counseling Program at Cal State University Fullerton in 2019 and transferred into my dream school at the University of Southern California. I had great professors who taught mindfulness in daily life, while also learning about chakras and energy from my best friend Kevin Larson. A great combination for a newly graduated counselor and transferring into USC for graduate school. This has been a long and challenging journey for me that I continue to learn from every day. I have taken my experiences of isolation and motivation from the Navy, the sudden loss of my best friend, working as a mental health counselor with my clients and all of the knowledge I have taken from both my counseling programs into account throughout this book. The hardest challenge for me was when Kevin had killed himself in January 2020, it was unexpected and for someone who was so full of life, quite tragic. Kevin would always talk about being present in the moment and letting concerns with others go as I would always come to him with the stress of my relationships. A quote that I tattooed on myself a year after his passing was something he would always say “treat people not as bad as they are, treat them as good as you are.” A wholesome reminder that we are in control of how we react when confronted with stress. It is a process though to be mindful of those actions and reactions, which will be looked at throughout this book. If you are reading this and ever feel like taking your own life, please call the suicide hotline at 800-273-8255. No matter what challenges you are facing and even though you may not feel like it at that moment in time, but you are loved and important.
