Total transparency time...I started this blog for a reason and that reason was to create a space to share not only my battle through mental illness but reach others in need, spread awareness, and end the stigma that exists around mental illness, one blog post at a time! I have definitely taken a turn. We will say a little swerve. I haven't put enough time into why I am here, why I started this blog, and what my mission and goals are.

The Lutzie 43 Foundation was established in loving memory of Philip Lutzenkirchen, shortly after his death in 2014. The objective of the foundation is to inspire people to make better decisions as drivers and friends, using Philip’s life and legacy to inspire change. The foundation’s motto for drivers is to “Live like Lutz, Love like Lutz, and Learn from Lutz.”
