Started as an Introduction to "My Next Adventure" inviting people to follow me through my sons sr year, graduation and; me becoming an empty nester. Morphed into my review and my life as a Unicorn: bi-racial brown girl in suburban PA attending private catholic school, transitioning to a drinking in home room teen, drug using, tattoo getting college student, pregnant graduate school student all while maintaining 3.5 + GPA. Finally landing as a Catholic, bi-racial, conservative, republican, married mother of 3 in Iowa who is in local politics, a pro-life, mental health advocate & HR expert.
