What I Do
It’s said that we teach what we most need to learn.
For years now, I’ve been exploring what it means to live and write from my heart. What it means to be true to myself, and how to express that in words.
Through my writing and my online programs, I share what I’ve learned about the transformative power of finding the truth and telling our stories.
