I walked out of the doctor’s office with a huge smile on my face, waving goodbye to the staff who now all knew me by first name. Understandable, since I’d been in and out of their office for the past seven months. And not just my general practitioner’s office, but also the four other specialists’… Read more »
Ever said this to yourself, “I’m afraid to make this commitment because I’m worried I’ll feel trapped, I won’t like it, I’ll be unhappy, and I’ll be wasting my time”?

Hi There! Recently I had a deep and meaningful conversation with a friend of mine. I opened up about how difficult this past year has been as a single mom building a business I’m passionate about while trying to rebuild my life after loss. Her response truly caught me off guard. She said she had… Read more »
Hi There! I’m writing to you with an extremely grateful heart because on Tuesday afternoon I found out my biopsy was benign (not cancer) and my CT scans were clear.
