Bittersweet and exciting… All at the same time.

I’ve temporarily closed my books.

If you’ve been following me for a while, you already know this business means everything to me, and this definitely isn’t goodbye.

There’s a lot happening behind the scenes, and I’m excited to finally take you along for what’s next.

Thank you to every woman, family, and Student, who has trusted me over the past few years. Your support has truly meant the world to me.

I’ll be sharing it more very soon ❤️

Took a trip to Colorado to train with one of the best… Who also happens to be my amazing friend Hannah Hannah | Competitive Shooter & Life Coach

two solid days of shooting, a little dancing, mild brass-related chaos, and me absolutely losing my s**t because I finally caught a round.
😝. Best time-worth every mile.

A weekend of solid training with 🤘

I flew out to Arizona to visit one of my most amazing friends, and we road tripped to Colorado together to get after it. I'm just beginning my competitive shooting journey and I couldn't ask for a better person to be on it with me.

Over 1k rounds. Sore hands. Blisters. Burns. A lot of laughs and most of all... Progress 💪💃

Ladies, I have a slight obsession with off body, Carry bags, and just sent me this Crossbody Flat Sac (Red).

And I have to say… I love this one 🩵

What stands out about this one is the size. It is quite literally a purse. It has multiple compartments, pull plenty of storage and enough room for all my things.

Note… as with many off body carry bags, it does come with a universal holster. I always remove these and replace it with my Eclipse Holsters Molly B holster.

I’m carrying my G***k 43X with an optic and it fits perfect perfectly with zero printing.

If you’ve been thinking about taking your first firearm course, the instructor makes all the difference.

The right instructor should prioritize safety, answer your questions, meet you where you’re at, and help you build confidence along the way.

being a great shooter and being a great instructor aren’t always the same thing.

Look for someone who knows how to teach.

I investigated crimes against children for years.

At times we picture danger as a stranger in a van. The reality is, it’s often very much less obvious.

It’s opportunity.
It’s distraction.
It’s a blind spot on the playground.
It’s a child who wanders off to the restroom alone.
It’s an adult whose behavior doesn’t quite make sense.

Here are five playground safety tips. I think every parent should know.

Which one surprised you the most?

Many online predators don’t start with threats or inappropriate messages. Grooming often begins through online gaming, social media, shared interest, and simple conversations designed to gain a child’s trust.

As parents, we need to know who our children are talking to, recognize changes and behavior, and have ongoing conversations about online safety.

The warning ⚠️ signs are often there. The challenge is knowing what to look for and being willing to have the conversation.

That’s one of the reasons I teach these topics today.

My go-to has always been the black belly band, but Sticky Holsters just released a n**e version and sent one my way.

I can definitely see this working under lighter colors!

Just a quick unboxing and outfit test. 😉
