You can’t pour from an empty cup. Travis has been home for nearly five months. Time is intangible, it seems like he’s been home for merely weeks and that he never actually left all at the same time. Relationships work really well when you both are able to pour into it rather than need something […]

Winter Is Coming!
I know, it’s finally spring!!! The birds, the sun, the fresh air, the rain showers, green grass, flower blossoms! All of the physical signs of growth, renewal, and flourishing…it’s a BEAUTIFUL playground of deliciousness outside! While the season of winter–the one containing snow, ice, plummeting temperatures, and dormant plants–is behind us, we’re talking about winter […]
Worry Less, Live More
It’s 2:00 AM & I snap out of a deep sleep in an instant… Heart racing, sweating, laying on the floor with my feet propped up on the side of the bed attempting to keep from fainting. At just 21 years old. Had the years of an eating disorder finally taken a toll on my […]

Second Nature Yet Foreign
Hand in hand, just as we departed ways 11 months earlier, we reconnected. Travis has been home for nearly six weeks! We celebrated our anniversary TOGETHER and shared Christmas with family. Seeing my family reconnect and embrace him was purely bliss! But getting to our family’s reunification was a long and tumultuous path. I never […]
The Law of Divine Oneness
It took me too many years to come to learn about universal laws. Forty-too-many years if I’m being honest! These laws are based upon nature and allow us to live in harmony with the world around us. Once I learned these laws and deeply engrained them into my belief system, things in my life began […]
The Key to Personal Interactions
