As an overachiever, I’ve spent years trying to control outcomes, speed up timelines, and attempt to avoid uncertainty at all costs. But the…

Finding Joy Again

For those of you who have followed my journey, you know that losing my dog, Blaze, was one of the hardest things I’ve been through in recent years.  For 12 years, he was my shadow and my best friend. And for three months after his passing, the house felt emptier than ever. When one of…

Change Isn’t Always A Bad Thing

If there’s one thing I’ve learned (and keep learning), it’s that life rarely stays the same. One season ends, another begins. Doors close, windows open, and sometimes, it’s just the breeze reminding us that the world keeps turning At the start of a new year, change can feel exciting—or daunting. Maybe you’re hoping for something…

What Are You Looking Forward To?

As everyone settles back into their post-holiday routines–getting the kids back to school, returning to work, or adjusting to regular life, there can be a post-holiday letdown. Several friends and clients have told me, “Now that the holidays are over, I need something to look forward to.” January is the middle of winter, and whether you…

Every Year Is A New Beginning

Happy New Year!

Here we are on the first day of 2025! Let the New Year’s resolutions begin.  Most of us will be detoxing from the usual overindulgence of the holiday season: overeating, overdrinking, and/or overspending. I will be taking a much-needed break from the endless parade of baked goods that have darkened my doorstep for the last few…

My One Regret…

Writing and publishing my first book, The Overthinker’s Guide to Joy, has been a dream come true—and one of my proudest accomplishments this year. But I do have one tiny regret, which I suspect I will hear about for the rest of my life. Whenever I’m stressed, can’t sleep, or feel a little out of…

Wins, Losses & Life

Life can often be an emotional rollercoaster.  Celebrations on one shelf. Grief on another. But every so often, they share the same space.  As I watched the trade winds bring in the rain this morning, I was reminded that without both sunshine and rain, there would be no rainbows. It’s been that kind of month for me. My…

We Sold Out!

So, yesterday, I had my very first book signing! I admit that I was ridiculously nervous and barely slept the night before.  When it was time to get ready, I found myself doing “other things,” like folding laundry and reorganizing the kitchen pantry, and I thought it might be a good time to wash my car. …
