My Journey

Welcome — and thank you for being here.

I’m the voice behind Burned and Reborn: A Gambler’s Reckoning, a platform that rose from the ashes of a life shaped by addiction, trauma, and the silence I carried for far too long. For years, I hid behind a smile while gambling controlled my life and past wounds quietly shaped my every decision. I lost more than money — I lost trust, identity, and at times, hope.

But rock bottom became my turning point. And from that pain came a deeper truth: I wasn’t alone — and I didn’t have to stay stuck.

This space is a reflection of that truth. It’s where I share my journey with raw honesty — from a fractured childhood to the chaos of addiction, from toxic relationships to the slow, steady work of recovery. These stories are real. They’re not pretty, but they’re proof that healing is possible, even after deep hurt.

Burned and Reborn is for anyone navigating their own reckoning — whether it’s with addiction, shame, mental health, or the quiet ache of feeling like you don’t belong. You’ll find vulnerability here, but also strength. Messiness, but also hope.

My mission is simple: to create connection through truth. If something here makes you feel seen, less alone, or just a little more understood — then this journey is doing what it was meant to.

Thank you for being part of it.
