To feel good and get yourself out of rut, do something for someone else. There will be an automatic shift, perhaps for all involved.  Service to others is an amazing healing mechanism.

Woke up this morning with mind chatter…you know, the kind of mind chatter that kills joy. With the passing of two people recently, I realize there are no guarantees. No one is invincible, and none of us are getting out of here alive.

I am excited to announce I have a new book coming out. I am in the editing phase and I am excited.
