Bridging the Gap: From Where You Are to Where You Want to Be

Friends, one of my greatest passions is helping others bridge the gap between where they are now and where they dream to be. This isn’t just a mission—it’s a journey I’ve been on myself. A journey of exploring pathways to peace, mental well-being, and self-discovery.


A Personal Journey

Over the years, I’ve immersed myself in the study of personal growth and mental health. Along the way, I’ve been fortunate to connect with supportive, like-minded individuals who share my passion for empowering others. But this journey hasn’t always been easy—it’s deeply personal.

I’ve experienced the heartbreak of losing loved ones to suicide and have faced my own struggles with mental health. These experiences have shaped me, fueling my determination to prevent such tragedies and create spaces where healing and connection are possible.


A Mission of Love and Acceptance 💖

Preventing these tragedies starts with a shift in mindset and open dialogue. We need to foster a culture of love, acceptance, and unwavering support—especially for our youth, who are the future of our communities.

This mission is why Authentic Perks Coffee Shop & Enrichment Center was created. What began in Newcastle, Oklahoma, has grown into a movement promoting mental health and healing through a variety of platforms:

  • Social Media
  • Podcasts
  • Articles
  • Coaching Sessions
  • Retreats
  • Community Discussions

Tackling Life’s Toughest Challenges

We address the topics that matter most—those often avoided but deeply impactful:

  • Mindset
  • Relationships
  • Parenting
  • Holistic Healing

We also dive into difficult areas like:

  • Abuse
  • Addiction
  • Grief

Our mission is to empower individuals to take charge of their lives, transform their perspectives, and find lasting peace.


Life Can Be Easier 💡

Here’s the truth: life doesn’t have to be as challenging as it feels. When we come together, support one another, and create safe spaces for healing, transformation becomes possible.

Together, we can build communities where:

  • Everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.
  • Tough conversations are embraced with compassion.
  • Individuals are empowered to take steps toward a better life.

The power to transform lives starts here—with you, with me, and with the conversations we’re brave enough to have. Let’s change the narrative, one step at a time.
