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!
Let’s talk about this. Do you want to be a waterfall or a well? Don’t worry I’m going to explain it more! I know eventually all metaphors unravel but stick with me on this one as long as you can. This relates to who you are to other people and when you are around other …

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.

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 …
