Time to take back your emotional power. Stop letting others behaviors affect you - it’s YOUR life- own it! 🙌🩷

Every day that you don’t write, finish and self-publish your book is another day that somebody who needs your book will not have it.

We’ve got to stop saying people make us feel a certain way… because they don’t.

They trigger what’s already there.

That reaction? That emotional spike? That’s subconscious programming firing off before we’re even aware of it. And the moment we blame someone else for how we feel, we hand our emotional power right over to them.

Triggers aren’t proof someone else is wrong… they’re data showing us what’s still unhealed, misaligned, or running on autopilot inside of us.

That’s where real freedom begins — when we stop pointing fingers and start reclaiming ownership of our emotional responses.

If you’re ready to understand the deeper psychology behind blame, triggers, and emotional power, that’s exactly what I break down in THE BLAME GAME (Heidi Ferguson).

Because the moment you stop blaming… you start becoming powerful‼️💯🙌🩷

Finally… The Happy Journal has arrived‼️💛🦋

I’m so excited to start sharing different videos and creative ways to use it — whether that’s journaling, scrapbooking, junk journaling, vision-boarding… or however you want to create your version of happy.

The whole heart behind The Happy Journal is using the prompt pages to fill your book with visual pieces of joy — photos, magazine cutouts, stickers, quotes, memories — anything that lights you up personally. It becomes a space you can visit every day to reconnect, realign, and remind yourself what happiness feels like for you.

Because happy isn’t one-size-fits-all… it’s personal. 💫

The Happy Journal is now available on Amazon: https://a.co/03pXJakC

More inspiration and flip-through videos coming soon. I can’t wait to show you all the ways you can make this journal your own. 🦋

BARBIE THE ZOMBIE
Preorder on Amazon: https://a.co/d/0bZ0p7tE

My name is Barbara.
I go by B.
The world calls me Barbie the Zombie, and honestly, that’s not even the strangest part.

This is my side of the story.

It starts with a wrinkle. Just one. The kind you notice under the wrong lighting and pretend isn’t there. Unfortunately for me, my mother runs a beauty empire. Unfortunately for everyone else, I knew about the top-secret formula her company was developing, but didn't know it wasn't ready for consumption.

I drank it.
I died.
I was buried.
And then I woke up.

Breaking out of your own grave really puts things into perspective.

Now I’m undead. An indestructible debutante who gets triggered into full zombie mode by one very specific thing: stupid people. I don’t hunt. I don’t kill. I just chomp at the brain a little, but only when provoked.

This book is my account of how it all happened. The boyfriend who turned on me, the besties who didn’t, my public enemy number one, Daddy & Mother, the panic, the media nonsense, and that monumental moment I took a brain chomp out of the President’s brain. (That part really complicated things.)

And oh yes, let's unravel why I'm triggered by stupid and how some people should really know better.

These days, I’m technically under house arrest in Daddy’s mansion. Mutual agreement. When nothing can kill you, people get a little fear-crazy. Especially the many who have tried coming at me with pitchforks, fire, profanity-filled threats, various weapons, and shame-based psycho babble. None of it hurts me, physically or emotionally.

So this is me, setting the record straight.
What I am.
What I’m not.
What actually happened.

Also, I'm not the one to fear. After all, stupid is dangerous, with or without me.

𝑳𝑬𝑻𝑻𝑬𝑹𝑺 𝑭𝑹𝑶𝑴 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑳𝑶𝑶𝑵𝑬𝒀 𝑩𝑰𝑵 𝒊𝒔 𝒂 #1 𝑨𝒎𝒂𝒛𝒐𝒏 𝑩𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒓! Amazon Kindle/KU, Audio & Paperback: https://a.co/d/0inUMMWy

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐯𝐨𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐬𝐲𝐥𝐮𝐦 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬?

In the late 1970s, the Emerson Rose Asylum emptied in a single breath—patients, doctors, orderlies—all gone. No bodies. No evidence. No answers.

Decades later, before the demolition of the asylum, a bundled stack of letters is found—every one addressed to the mysterious pseudonym Dr. Quill.
What spills out is a chilling collection of confessions and pleas penned by the forgotten, each voice carrying its own fracture and fire. As the patients recount childhood wounds and quiet mercies, a darker pattern presses at the edges—strange experiments, vanishing names, and a plan whispered through the vents.

Piece by piece, their notes map the asylum’s final months. Haunting yet human, grim yet hope-lit, these letters usher you room by room toward the night Emerson Rose went silent. What remains untouched is the raw pulse of their human spirit—challenge, corruption, salvation—and the dangerous tenderness of believing escape is possible.

Their journey will become your journey as the patients chronicle their final months in these, Letters from the Looney Bin.

Note to self 📝 😆🐧

02/04/2026

Hello everyone, just wanted to post that I am slowly stepping away from my training role and moving back into something that’s always been part of me: 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠. 𝐖𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠. 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠. 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬, 𝐣𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐟𝐢𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐧𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐥 𝐛𝐨𝐱.

That’s where 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 comes in. It’s my independent publishing home for all the things my brain loves to create—fiction, nonfiction, journals, humor, dark, heartfelt, weird, and everything in between. I currently have 15 books (and counting), across a lot of different genres… which is exactly why my logo is a squirrel. 🐿️

I finally realized: my brain isn’t scattered—it’s curious. And instead of trying to make it sit still, I built a little “house” where my squirrel brain can run free and stay focused enough to actually finish books.

Going forward, I’ll be sharing more about my books, the behind-the-scenes of self-publishing on Amazon, and content for anyone who’s curious about writing, creating, or publishing their own work. Not as a guru—just as someone who’s been doing this for over 10 years and wants to share what I’ve learned.

This feels like coming home to myself creatively. 💛

Thanks for being here while I build this next chapter.🙌
