Change is never easy. Especially when it's unexpected, unwanted or uncalled for. Sometimes, it just flat out sucks and all we can do is deal with it. Other times, it's something you never wanted, yet, exactly what you never knew you needed. BY THE WAY...

Father's day this year was a little tough, but it brought about some important reflections I'd like to share. Here's a little bonus episode to remind you that I'm still here, still healing, and still grateful for it all.

It's been too long to go without a check in so....

Wrapping up the season with more joy than grief, and more love than loss.

It's my pleasure to introduce to you, the one, the only, half-hearted, Nate D-O-Double G
