March 29, 2021 By madisontt

As we move farther from the start of the new year, the odds that we have stuck to these and the other resolutions we might have set drop rapidly.

November 7, 2019 By madisontt

When we’ve survived an extremely upsetting event, it can be painful to revisit the memory. Many of us would prefer not to talk about it, whether it was a car accident, fire, assault, medical emergency, or something else.
