What To Do When You Hate Someone So Much What happens when someone you hate is constantly on your mind? This is a question I found online recently, and I thought about how to answer this. Because, I certainly had a great experience with this once or twice. The way to stop obsessing about people you […]

Upside Down

Someone asked me recently how much money I make blogging, podcasting… a weird question, right? I mean does anyone ask someone in a normal “job” how much money they make? But I am always glad to answer this question. Because the answer is ZERO. I don’t make a dime. I don’t sell ads. I don’t […]
