I'm a medical doctor, but I had to leave the system to tell the truth.
Most of what you’re told about your health is incomplete or completely wrong.
You’re stuck in a system that profits from your symptoms, not your healing.
In my Substack, I write the truth I wasn’t allowed to say inside the system.
If you're exhausted, unwell, and unheard, say hi! 🙌

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

The Arrest of Mayor Ras Baraka: A Dangerous Precedent
On May 9, 2025, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested at the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility, a private prison operated by GEO Group. Baraka attempted to join a congressional delegation’s tour to inspect conditions at the facility, which reopened under a controversial $1 billion, 15-year contract with ICE. Federal authorities claimed Baraka ignored warnings to leave, charging him with misdemeanor trespassing. Baraka, however, maintains he …
Marketing isn’t all on your shoulders. More than 50% of all new free subscriptions and 25% of paid subscriptions come from within our network.
Networks must be more cautious when reporting Trump’s so-called “deals.” His announcements often follow a familiar, deceptive pattern: declare a major breakthrough, only for the details to later reveal that nothing has actually changed. In the meantime, he gets the headlines he wants, the press amplifies the illusion, and the markets react based on fiction—not fact.

Our children are so secure in their love. The three bigs all wrote about their mommy in these books I bought them to write in for Mother’s Day. The one common theme: mommy loves them, and is gentle and intentional in the way she loves them.
I’m not surprised at all. If you have ever met any of the Knapp kids, they are a delight. Each one …
“It’s a 6-hour flight — that’s nearly a whole Parisian working week — without a drink.”
This kind of honest read of the situation is why I read the Pillar.
This is appalling: The Pope is younger than I am! Not sure of the theological implications, but it just feels very wrong.
Every time I hear someone say they never heard of Cardinal Robert Prevost before the day he became Pope Leo XIV, I silently judge them for not being a reader of the . Their coverage was unparalleled, and so were their calls on who would likely emerge as pope. Chris and I each have a subscription, and we give them money on top of that to support their work. We think it is that important. If you are Catholic and want clear, unbiased, knowledgeable reporting on the Church, there is none better.
I never liked “figure out ways to get away from your children” as advice for the difficulties of motherhood.
