I’m always concerned when on of my clients sends me a text or DM that reads “there’s something I need to talk to you about. Are you busy?” I always drop everything to immediately respond to messages like this because I can feel their sense of urgency. I’m everyone’s mom. I’m always available to my […]

Sharing the day with Cindy and I was an investigative journalist, Ella. She was in for a wild ride of running from one prison to the next with the Texas Twins.  A day in my life is never boring. If you want to ride with me, you buckle up for adventure, laughs and a few […]

It’s been two weeks of running here, there and everywhere while fielding calls and being positive for one young lady in North Dakota who was swindled by a poison pen bearing inmate at TDCJ Ellis Unit playing her for his own gain.  In all honesty, I was hoping the other woman STILL actually planning to […]
