I’m excited and deeply honored to share that I will be the keynote speaker for the 99th Conasauga Drug Court Graduation Ceremony on December 11th at the Whitfield County Courthouse.

These ceremonies are powerful celebrations of determination and transformation. Our recovery community in Whitfield and Murray counties is extraordinary—people here continually show up for one another, and it’s a privilege to stand alongside them as we honor the graduates’ hard work and perseverance.

My journey—from incarceration to recovery to leadership—has taught me that change is always possible when hope meets responsibility. Being able to share that message through Principles Over Passions Consultancy is one of the greatest gifts of my life’s work.

If you’re looking for a speaker or trainer for your agency, school, business, or community event—whether the focus is recovery, resilience, leadership, or lived-experience storytelling—I would love to partner with you.

Let’s continue building communities where transformation is possible and supported.

The Southeast Addiction Recovery Coalition is a regional alliance of recovery-focused organizations from across the Southeastern United States, united under the shared belief that recovery is possible for everyone, everywhere.

This was the first cohort of women residence of the Athens Clarke County Jail. Taking the PrinciplesOver Passions trauma-informed care journey with these women, watching them embrace pasts and draw power from their pain, has been just as much of an empowering experience for me as it was for them!
Thank hou you to Sheriff John Q Williams and Dep. Chief Frank Woods for having vision of expanding this program to the women, and to my team within the Programs Departments for a flawless ex*****on!

More photos and footage to come !
