After a season of deep recalibration (and let’s be honest, some real grown-woman decision-making), I’m thrilled to officially share that I’ll be stepping into the role of 988 Manager at Carelon Behavioral Health. 📞🧠
This next chapter reflects the work I’ve always been committed to: trauma-informed leadership, mental health systems transformation, and equity-centered crisis care, and just now with even more alignment, structure, and impact. 💼✨
That said, you know I don’t do clean breaks…I do conscious transitions. I’ll continue honoring my advocacy work in the adult industry, including ongoing collaboration with Pineapple Support, the National Exotic Dancer Expo, and Exotic Dancer Magazine because supporting mental health across industries isn’t something I take lightly. 🍍💃🧠
This weekend’s Miami eXXXotica will be one of my final travel events for the time being, as I refocus on family, personal grounding, and fully stepping into this next professional chapter. 🌴✈️💗
And yes, I may still pop in now and then for the occasional immigration evaluation, because healing-centered storytelling is part of who I am, no matter the format. 📝💬
It’s not a goodbye. It’s a glow-up. 🌟
