Present Life

"Betrayal is a Blessing"

The bottom is a place of growth. My life no longer focuses on success nor a career but rather health and happiness. I drive a Bronco that seats my dogs who are the greatest therapists and most loyal companions.

My dogs and I love to go on adventures returning home where my cat adores our stories. My house is surrounded by nature where I spend my summers on the water indulging in outdoor yoga and meditation. My winters include long hikes and peaceful moments of writing and reflection.

I spend as much time as I can with my family because I'm blessed with the best! Although enduring my failure was a living hell, it's made me who I am today and without growth you're simply living to attain survival. If I could give advice to anyone who would listen, I would tell them not to fear failure but rather fear mediocracy as nothing grows from mediocracy.

"We all want things to stay the same. Settle for living in misery because we are afraid of change, of things crumbling to ruins. Ruin is a gift. Ruin is the road to transformation."

"What would you do if you knew you could not fail?"

My name is Cheryl MacKinnon. I have Borderline Personality Disorder and Anxiety-ADHD which I lived with untreated until several years ago. I am now a true believer in meditation and therapy. I entered the legal field in 2013 and quickly became one of the most successful Paralegals within my jurisdiction. I owned and operated a law office for six years which caused me to ignore my mental and physical health to stay at the top of my profession. Success was my top priority and I would do anything to maintain it. In 2018 I became the City Prosecutor and my drive for success continued while I became unhinged. Although I haven't practiced law since 2022 the media decided to end my career as a legal professional in a very public manner in 2023. I've now created this space to control my narrative and tell you my side of this story. My book release date is to be determined, so stay tuned!
