Sitting with the warm sun on my face, a breeze brushes the hair into my eyes, and suddenly a crow calls in the yard next door. I love to connect with the experiences I’m having as I take a few moments to get present in the energy of the upcoming full solar eclipse. This eclipse […]
How a single red leaf changed my life
The autumn sun felt warm on my face. I was six years old and out to dinner with my family. My cousin, who was just months older than me, came with us. When we arrived at the restaurant, I saw a beautiful bush with bright red leaves. I had never seen anything so beautiful in […]
The Journey Begins

When I finished the project and called the book […]
Caring for the Caregiver
Caring for the needs of a loved one is often incredibly rewarding.

Out the Other Side of Crisis
I decided to switch things up a little on the blog today and share a little bit more about the work that I get to do each day; though often it doesn’t feel like “work”. This is work that I love and believe me there have been many times along my career path when I […]
