My apartment is a disaster because I'm halfway through taking down the Christmas decorations. I have a second bedroom to organize & clean out {went from a 4 bedroom house to a small 2 bedroom apartment}. I have a bunch of food to meal prep for my week and I need to write. I've been … Continue reading The First Step Toward Change
I don't know about you - but I don't feel super motivated today. Or since things started to get rougher last week. This COVID-19 situation is discouraging, right? It's having an impact on all of us - though I know some are feeling it more than others. I started telework today. But being that it's … Continue reading It’s Going to be Okay
I’ve been learning the art of giving myself some grace. The process of becoming a butterfly isn’t exactly pretty. They start as this ugly, squirmy thing and then they’re wrapped up in an even uglier cocoon for anywhere from 5 days to 21 days! I’m not where I want to be - but I will … Continue reading Butterfly – Monday Motivation
Happy Monday! This is a slightly different Monday Motivation post. I saw this art work & had to track down the artist. She's a new favorite. You can find her, here or here or, here!

When I was growing up, Disneyland was such an inspiration to the creative dreamer in me. My … Continue reading Dreamers & Risk Takers
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on … Continue reading New Year. Not New You?
That's me. I'm an author. I'm a dream chaser. There are some nay-sayers out there that wonder about all this "dream" talk. I get it. I really do. But let's look at this another way.

You can't make everyone happy so don't even bother trying . . .
I love this reminder that you can start where you are. So often we feel like we have to have it all together before we accomplish that goal or fulfill that dream.
