There is no better teacher in life than experience. We all face adversity nearly every day. Most individuals are looking for ways to avoid it ... to get around it. But as the Shoebox Sherpa, I help others walk straight through it, sifting through their broken pieces to find the magic in their mess.

Loss knows no boundaries. And neither does grief. Pain loves to sit within you like an unwelcomed house guest. And shame and denial, well they are pain’s best friends. I know this because I’ve lived it. I’ve been there. I’ve carried these unwanted feelings within me for decades. I know how they love to live within scars. I know how they remind you of who you were even when you try to become who you want to be.
But I also know this. I know that power can be formed through pain. I know that purpose can be found within it. I know that change starts from within, but transformation requires you to revisit what is holding you back. I know that life is messy, but that messiness offers you opportunities. I know that your past doesn’t have to hold you prisoner; I know that you can be freed from it.
And I also know that the shoebox effect can save your life. It saved mine.
