It is my greatest desire to help others and to show you ways to find peace in your personal journey.

 

Before I found these ideas I grew very numb in my life’s experiences and very literally stopped dreaming.  Then, despair, anxiety and debilitating depression seemed to naturally take over.

​

If you’ve ever felt like you just seem to go from one trial after another without a breath, I understand.  You see, 3 weeks after delivering my first baby, my husband, an accomplished rock climber, fell 75 feet. After 6 weeks in a coma, and 3 months in the hospital, he was a completely different person. Among his many injuries, which included severely broken ankles to the point they weren’t sure he would ever walk again, he suffered a traumatic brain injury in which his right frontal and temporal lobe‘s of his brain were completely destroyed. He was no longer the same person.  However, I felt I should endure, and did my best to survive this near impossible situation. After 17 more years and 3 more kids, I realized that I & my kids might not survive the mental, emotional and physical abuse and we divorced.  There is simply no way to accurately express the situation that I and my kids lived in for so long with him unless you’ve experienced someone with a severe TBI. (check out my book, Defining Moments--coming soon!)

 

Then, at 17, my oldest daughter began dating a boy with cancer that was in remission. When the cancer returned, and he was given 3 months to live, I met his dad through his passing. I knew our meeting was divine, I felt I knew him and was drawn to him. We married and together we raised our combined six kids.

​

In the beginning I believed I was living my fairytale, and in many ways I was, but as the years passed, his choices led him away from me and he desired not to continue our relationship. I never dreamed I would ever be divorced again.

​

However!  The lessons I have learned from these experiences have been invaluable to me.

And I have learned how to feel joy in my sadness, peace in my pain, and love for myself even when my heart was broken. I have learned that even in our struggles and our trials we can find peace and joy and recognize there is a bigger purpose for our lives.
