I am no expert, but I want to share my cancer battles and my mental health journey with you, some stress reduction ideas for your life, and hopefully some fun things along the way. Plus strategies I have found successful for me and give you tools for success with your health and life. Life can knock us down through health or life challenges but that doesn't need to stop us. Welcome friends, I am so glad you are here and that you learn something helpful along the way!
Red light therapy. Right now it feels like a trend that's really taking off. I've known about it for quite a while, but now it seems like I'm seeing it everywhere. Including those scary masks you might have noticed also. Different kinds of light therapy have been around for years and years. Not just red. …
1906 That is the year my family farm officially began. Hard to believe it's been that long. While I definitely wasn't around for the early years, I have been around for enough of the later years to appreciate the legacy of what my family has built. I so greatly appreciate all the work, hardship and …
Do you know someone who you just speak with for a short time and you feel like you know them really well? Or maybe you are someone who easily shares a lot of things about yourself with people you have just met. Honestly some people are just like an open book and it doesn't take …
It's ok you can admit it. Admit that at least at some point in your life you have worn a mask. No, not a physical mask like for a costume. But a mask to cover who you are. Masks can look different for different people. A mask for one person might be one that attracts …

I thought I might as well get it over with right from the start. Instead of keeping you waiting in anticipation to see if I was going to mention making personal choices again, I decided to just come right out and put it in the title. Don’t you just feel better about it all now? …
Seattle Christmas Market beside the Space Needle Oh no! Those were the words that ran through my mind numerous times just a few weeks ago. Very recently I got back from a trip I had been planning for almost 6 months. It was a unique trip. One I won't have the chance to go on …
Just saying, try it you might like it, could mean anything. Give me a minute and I’ll explain. Over the years there have been many circumstances or opportunities I have had to do something on my own. Alone, ugh gasp ALONE! Yes alone. 😬 For some of you that sounds like a horror show and …
A personal story. You have one, I have one. Crazy how that works, right? I recently was asked to share my health journey with a group of people in a webinar. Not really sure now many people were on the call. Probably between 60-70. Every time I share my story with anyone whether it's one …
Cancer. I call it The Big C. But I am sure it goes by many names, some not so nice either. It first directly entered my life at the age of 16. And since then, it's been constantly in the background. Sometimes taking centre stage, and other times shifting more to the back seat. But …
