I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here! Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me.

Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space.

Seriously, this is one STUNNING woman! But it’s not just her outward appearance that makes her beautiful. […]
When I was asked if I’d be interested in going up to Denali (or Mt. McKinley)’s base camp, I don’t even think I stopped to think about it. I mean seriously…what was there to think about?? Visiting the highest peak in North America and capturing it’s beauty?? Ummmm…yes please!! I had no idea what to […]
