🔹 Raised by a fiercely strong woman who lived and loved boldly before cancer took her too soon, I grew up knowing that obstacles are just challenges waiting to be conquered. As the eldest of four girls, I learned resilience, creativity, and the power of self-expression.
🔹 My artistic journey has taken me through pottery, painting, poetry, photography, sculpting, and beyond—because when words aren't enough, art speaks. And when cancer came knocking in 2013, I answered not with fear but with fierce determination.
🔹 Diagnosed with stage three breast cancer on Valentine's Day, I refused to let it define me. Instead, I transformed pain into poetry, illness into inspiration, and fear into fierce creativity.

Killer Stories - Conversations...

Brin Hodgskiss, Nicole Engelbrecht

'If you made me angry, to me, for that anger to go away, I have to get hold of you ... I have to do something to you.'
'I didn't feel myself. I felt numb, like a zombie, like a switch had been flicked and a light had gone off.'
These are the words of some of South Africa's most terrifying serial killers, who spoke to psychologist Brin Hodgskiss in the bowels of the country's most secure prisons.
Hodgskiss interviewed several of the most notorious serial killers and his recordings sat gathering dust until recently, when top true-crime podcaster Nicole Engelbrecht found his research online. The two connected and now they bring their love of storytelling to this highly readable book.
In Killer Stories, Hodgskiss combines his interviews with the tenets of narrative psychology to take the reader into the minds of the killers and shares with us the ways in which his own journey as a psychologist and human being contributed to his deeper understanding of them. The book intertwines the killers' versions of the truth and the true-crime stories behind them, re-telling their killing sprees in gripping detail.
Journey with the authors as they lay out how the stories these men told themselves about their lives contributed to where they ended up – and how those stories aren't that different from those we all tell ourselves.

Addison’s Antidote

Craig Beck

Millions of people around the world have been diagnosed with incurable autoimmune diseases like Addison’s. Debilitating conditions that make us tired, ill, and miserable. The only solution the medical industry offers are side-effect riddled maintenance drugs such as steroids and painkillers.Getting a formal diagnosis of Addison’s Disease is often a lengthy and challenging process. Many never get a medical confirmation of what is happening to their mind and body at all! Countless individuals live in constant pain and discomfort because they incorrectly assume all their health problems are the natural result of aging.Unfortunately, Craig Beck joined this ill-health demographic at the age of 48. After suffering months of severe symptoms, eventually, he too got handed the autoimmunity life sentence. However, rather than accept the hand as it was dealt. He remembered that the best medicine for a long and healthy life is found at the end of your fork, not the doctor's prescription pad. Craig decided to fall back on his research into natural medicine. He designed a diet and lifestyle that made inflammation the enemy and target. A process that would show amazing success at pushing Addison’s Disease firmly into near-permanent remission. In this special Addison’s addition of the Autoimmune Antidote, you will gain valuable insight into the new, natural approach that can help you prevent and maybe even reverse the life-limiting symptoms of Addison’s Disease and other inflammatory health problems. www.CraigBeck.com
