Share Your Story

Sometimes, we’re reticent to share our truths, because we fear people will judge us, ignore us, or even laugh. But if we keep our story bottled up—our voice clipped—we can’t move forward; we can’t heal.

December Digest

Many of you aren’t on social media or you’re trying to cut back. I support these efforts. Still, I want my Facebook posts—shorter messages —to be accessible to everyone. Each month, I’ll create a digest. Take your time. Let yourself rest in these photographs and words.

What Matters Most?

I volunteer each Monday in prison, teaching mindfulness and meditation. The work is heartbreaking, meaningful, and inspiring. I see suffering and I also see transformation.

Digest of Everyday Insights

This blog post is a digest of my recent Facebook offerings. Interestingly, to reach more people, I created a social-media page for my business, but now I’m finding that people seek space and respite, which you can find here on my blog.
