Give to Gain: The Power of Sustainable Giving

Celebrating International Women’s Day Tuesday, I had the honor of speaking at a company in Tolland, CT, that was celebrating its female employees for International Women’s Day.

Do you have demon hunters in your midst?

Facing our inner demons (and finding peace anyway) This weekend, all four of my grandkids slept over at our house. As you can imagine it was quite lively! At one point, I walked into our new family room and found them watching K-Pop Demon Hunters. If you are not familiar, it’s a movie with high-energy music, […]

The Place Between Retreat and Real Life

Life doesn’t often move in neat, predictable chapters. Sometimes it feels more like stepping from one season into another without much warning — caregiver, speaker, leader, daughter, teacher — all within a matter of days. I actually love my life this way. It’s an adventure. And sometimes it’s exhausting if I haven’t filled my cup. […]

Give to Gain but Self-Care First

V-Day Prep As Valentine’s Day approaches, I find myself thinking less about cards and candy—and more about the quiet, meaningful ways that we love, give, and show up for others in our lives. This past weekend, I spent three hours with the kiddos watching them make Valentine cards for one another. Construction paper, markers, stickers, […]

What I learned from My Fair Lady

Stress Relief There was a day last week when I was feeling really stressed out. Too many technical glitches were happening, and I was feeling overwhelmed. Paul was out doing his group at the prison for the evening, so I began scrolling through movies to watch, and when I saw it, I knew I had […]

Keep the dream alive

Injustice I wrote this on Monday, reflecting on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and that morning my friend sent me a reading that hit home in my heart. It was a quote about dreams. “Even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.“~ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. That […]

Some stress is good for you

A First Time Experience Last week, I did something that challenged me—physically, mentally, and spiritually. I completed a three-day water fast. Yup. I did that. Not something I’ve ever even wanted to attempt in the past – mostly due to fear. Here’s Why As we age, our values evolve. Our beliefs shift as life teaches […]

Happy New Year!

As 2025 comes to a close, this quiet space between “what was” and “what’s next” invites reflection. Not the harsh kind. The honest kind. The kind that asks: What am I still carrying that no longer serves me? Letting go doesn’t mean forgetting, denying, or dismissing what mattered. It means loosening your grip on what weighs […]
