Let's talk about it!! September is back to school month for many, and it's also Alopecia and Suicide Awareness months. I'm a big champion for the power of conversations! It's amazing the things we make up in our head -- which turns out isn't always a safe place to hang out. There are some major moments I made things up that weren't true that made my life wildly more difficult. At age 11, when I lost all my hair, I told myself there was something wrong with me, that I'd never have any friends, or be able to do the things I loved to do. That wasn't the truth -- but I said it to myself enough that I believed...
What a magnificent way to celebrate Pride Disability Month -- that's Awesome Emma in the picture with me! We met at the Cushing Marketplace's Ice Cream Social - she's a book lover and a new friend! My author heart, when she shared that she'd made our picture her screen saver!
Happy Birthday to ME! I was born on the night of a full moon at three minutes past midnight 54 years ago today -- something good was brewing from the beginning! "WHO KNEW?!" as my dad is fond of saying, the unexpected twists and turns my life would take to lead me to where I am now.

You have heard me share about the Children's Alopecia Project which I am a BIG FAN of and a mentor for, and they have upcoming camps available all year! Though it's been...

I did this for years and then stopped - it's important to notice when something becomes a chore versus an opportunity! This year I jumped back in and we're on Day 174-ish of the year. It's a great way to presence all the goodness we have in our life and help keep our vibration high. If you're interested in following along on my adventures friend or follow me on Facebook and Instagram - though for now those daily posts are...
Happy June All! There is still a whole lot going on in our world and we sometimes need a reminder that it's not only okay to feel good, but that joy, happiness, gratitude, compassion, enthusiasm are high vibe-ing feelings, and help to lift not only our spirits, but the spirits of those around us! The world truly could use MORE JOY, MORE LIGHT and MORE LOVE! It's my sincerest wish that asap laws for gun reform are passed, and that we can't imagine what took us so long to collectively agree to their importance. It is a crucial step, though I also believe it's important to realize it's only a piece of the puzzle in the healing and/or transformation of...
