The Moonstruck Wayfarer Podcast
In August of 2020, My son was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in Osaka, Japan where we lived. Long before this diagnosis, I was already struggling with serious addiction issues and mental illness. Moonstruck Wayfarer, a nickname that came to me during psychosis, began as an introspective blog on Instagram where I could anonymously write about my journey of recovery as I attempted to navigate a nightmare existence. My son passed in June of 2021. To this day, I keep fighting. On this podcast, I dive into the themes of recovery and mental health as an advocate to all who fight the same battles.
