The Story Behind Us

We are so grateful you found us! We hope that our stories will help you though your journey in finding mental wellness. -Julie and Nancy

In the darkest moments of our lives, sometimes, the most unexpected friendships can emerge as guiding lights. We both embarked on a journey of raising mentally ill children that would test our strength and  resilience but ultimately would bond us together in a life long friendship.

Our children’s lives were far from easy. They are our unsung heroes in our story. 

Our children have been through countless medications trials and error, some offering glimmers of hope, and others causing devastating side effects. We have fought through the education system for equal treatment and learned to navigate the confusing world of IEP’s. Our children’s story shares the heart-wrenching experiences of suicide attempts, numerous hospitalizations and residential treatment. Though it all we never gave up hope that one day our kids would find the stability and peace they deserved.

Our journey has been far from easy, and it continues to be filled with uncertainties. However, through it all, we have discovered the incredible power of resilience and the strength that comes from supporting one another. Our friendship has been a beacon of hope in the darkest of times, a reminder that even in the face of adversity, there is a light that can guide us forward.

Together, we have learned that love, understanding, and unwavering support can make all the difference in the world for our children and for ourselves. Our story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of friendship in the face of life’s most challenging trials.

Our hope is through our journey, we can offer you the light to guide you to never give up.
