Every January, we tell ourselves this is the year everything changes.

We’ll lose the weight.
Eat better.
Exercise more.
Fix our finances.
Quit smoking or drinking (or both).

The truth is, most New Year’s resolutions don’t fail due to lack of motivation. They fail because they’re unrealistic, unsupported, and built on an all-or-nothing mindset.

Our latest blog explores why up to 80% of New Year’s resolutions fail — and more importantly, how to change that. We share 8 realistic, proven ways to make New Year’s resolutions stick, including how to set sustainable goals, build habits gradually, and give yourself permission to progress instead of aiming for perfection.

What is “Mankeeping” — and why are some women opting out of dating?

Mankeeping is a new term used to describe the ongoing effort of managing a man’s happiness and well-being in a relationship — from emotional support and communication to appearance, motivation, and daily care.

Do you know how important it is for teenagers to get a good night’s sleep? Sleep is directly tied to their ability to focus, manage emotions, make decisions, and maintain strong mental health.

In this video, I share why sleep is so critical for teens’ well-being and how lack of it can impact their lives at home and at school.

We’re proud to have Katelyn Klein, LPC-A on our team, a licensed therapist who specializes in working with children and teens. Katelyn provides compassionate support to help young people navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, stress, and yes - even sleep struggles.

Because when teens get the rest they need, they gain the foundation to thrive.

Over the years, my work in hospitals, government agencies, and private practice has taught me that some of the most dangerous threats to our communities are the ones we don’t see—or don’t recognize. That’s why I’m proud to be presenting at the upcoming TAAP State Conference on Addiction Studies: "Hidden in Plain Sight: Identifying and Preventing Human Trafficking in Our Communities"

Human trafficking is often misunderstood and misidentified. In this presentation, I’ll break down exactly what it is—and what it isn’t. My goal is not just to raise awareness, but to equip you with the tools and knowledge to recognize the signs, intervene when possible, and help protect the most vulnerable in your community.

My presentation is one of many great experiences happening over this 3-day conference. To register, visit https://www.taapstateconference.org/

I hope you’ll join me for this vital conversation. Together, we can shine a light on what’s hidden in plain sight.
