I've seen so many lives turn around from the impossible. I have come to embrace the idea that even the simplest act of understanding, love, and attention can produce the biggest results.
If I know everything around the situation, all the facts, I feel like I can handle just about anything.
Quiet moments recharge me.
I'm having an unbelievable time on the road. I am taking the time to explore each new city in a way I never have before.
I've always expressed myself best through writing. I've gotten out all of my deepest feelings that way for as long as I can remember.
When I really need it, talking is the best way to deal with emotional pain.
Love is giving of yourself in a way that is free of fear.
I believe if you can find something to give back to, your soul will feel fulfilled in a very powerful way.
I'm very blessed to have a phenomenal husband, son, and beautiful family and friends around me.
Writing in my journal keeps me focused on my spirit and what I need or feel.
Listening to great music and art inspires me and recharges me.
I'm in constant pursuit of growing and evolving.
I'm inspired by many of my friends, colleagues, and the extraordinary people I've been fortunate enough to meet along the way.
You could have all the riches in the world, but it doesn't mean much without family.
