I spent most of my life trying to please others—with little to no success. I was devastated when my husband of only eight months left me. Clearly, all my effort to make him happy wasn’t working. So I quit my job, put all my “stuff” in storage, packed my car, and headed to Florida with $500 in my pocket.

I had tried so hard to do everything right, but I was exhausted from being “me.”

I thought I could escape—start fresh, be someone new and exciting, maybe even a little wild. But I quickly realized: no matter where you go, you can’t run from yourself.

That journey taught me priceless lessons:

• I scratched the surface of what it must feel like to be homeless, unsure where I’d sleep or end up each day.

• It’s hard to get a job without a phone number or address (this was pre-cell phones).

• Connections matter—I met a woman on the beach who helped me get hired.

• Help is always there if you keep asking.

• Most importantly, I learned I couldn’t outrun my feelings.

Years later, from the outside, it looked like I had it all—the house, the car, the job, the kids, and the man. I was happy enough, but something still felt missing.

Then Spirit got my attention.

In August 1999, I was in a hit-and-run accident. Thrown over 40 feet in the air, I was left in physical pain that lingered for years. That pain became a mirror for the emotional pain I’d been storing for decades—rejection, unworthiness, and a deep sense of not being loved.

The “stuff” I had put in storage during that trip to Florida? It became a metaphor for all the emotional baggage I had buried inside me.

While healing physically, I began to heal emotionally and spiritually. I devoured every self-help book I could find. I trained in healing modalities, coaching, meditation, shamanism—you name it.

That accident, as traumatic as it was, turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.

As I spun through the air that day, I had a profound realization: I am not my body. Even if my body didn’t survive, I would go on. I felt a peace and love beyond words—and it was inside me all along.

That moment awakened something I could never forget. Since then, I’ve been on a mission to live in connection with that Love and help others find it too.

When I work with clients, speak to groups, lead workshops, or write—I’m simply a vessel. I believe Spirit is the highest expression of Self within all of us, and that we are deeply connected.

Spirit brought you here—for a reason.

Whether we connect for a moment or a lifetime, I want you to know this:

You are nothing less than a magnificent, amazing manifestation of Love.

It’s yours to own.

I’d be honored to light the way with you into a world of unlimited possibilities.

With blessings and love,
