About this listen

Discussing mental health, physical well being, spirituality, parenthood and life from an everyday human perspective. Reaching out to connect with others that struggle or just want to feel that connection knowing we are not alone. My hope is to inspire others to embrace their imperfections and talk freely about their everyday thoughts and challenges in life. We are part of a bigger pack in life but we also live as lone wolves. We can embrace our inner lone wolf to heal and connect to humanity as a whole. We are lone wolves but we are not alone. Stay blessed & one love ya'll!

  • Welcome Back!
    Jan 9 2026

    Welcome back to Lone Wolf Nation, this is season 2 & we are now in 2026!

    On this first episode we speak the ugly truth about healing & accountability. How have you healed or how do you start? Despite our challenges there is so much we can be grateful for & the blessing is not just in the lessons learned or battles won but also in the pain & trauma we endure.

    We also reflect on the power & presence of duality. What is duality? Can more than one truth exist within the same plane & realm of topics, conversations, connections & human experiences? How does the understanding of duality in our lives help us heal & grow?

    Come join Lone Wolf Nation this season to connect with others through the threads of emotions shared by all humans. If you have ever felt or experienced pain, stress, anxiety, loss, addiction, depression, anger, hopelessness, PTSD, triggers, suicidal thoughts & any challenges or heaviness in your life, you are not alone! You are part of life & the beauty of being human & imperfect. Our truth & authenticity is what connects us. You are not alone, stay blessed!

  • Episode 8 - The man on the street
    Aug 16 2024

    After over a month Lone Wolf Nation is back! My hesitation on releasing this episode and exposing my vulnerability is the very reason why I started this podcast. My experience is not unique in the sense that we are a community. We all struggle sometimes with being vulnerable. It's the spirit that longs for connection and the human that sometimes seeks to isolate. I share how a homeless man brings me back to my father and the power of letting go.
