10/29/25 Greetings, fellow wild-hearted wanderers, meaning-makers, hope-dealers, light-bringers, and bridge-builders. A song popped into my orbit yesterday. I didn’t realize its full magnitude until I paused with the feeling it stirred in me — a feeling that asked me to linger… listen… breathe… and feel.That quiet, certain knowing: something real is happening here. I had just uploaded my latest mountain stream reel to my Facebook page. When creating a reel, one of the options is to choose...

10/23/25 Hey there, quiet alchemists, truth-tenders, and rememberers of what matters! quintessence This fascinating term dropped back into my orbit this week. I love being reminded of things I once deeply pondered and now carry within my being. And when I’m reminded of them...is like a spark or a bolt of lighting...a reverberating AHAH moment! This word comes from the Latin words quinta essentia. Quinta being “fifth” and Essentia being “essence”. But what is quintessence? “Ancient and...

10/17/25 Greetings, brave feelers and quiet seekers….travelers of both the outer world and the inner one. If you were to go to my blog and read the entry I wrote on September 8th, 2024 here is what you would find…. Change Working in the outdoors I've had the pleasure of being witness to change each and every day. How the light hits the river water in the morning, the sounds of insects and birds and the rippling water over rocks. It's easy to notice change when you're in awareness of your...

10/01/25 Greetings, fellow wanderers, wild-idea dreamers, meaning makers, and seekers of clarity, courage, and quiet joy! I see you. Because I am you… and you are me. “Wherever we insist on pushing our differences on others, we feel separation. We name this separation resistance, laziness, loneliness, depression, anxiety, or some kind of lack in ourselves. Then we claim these as ‘who we are’—I am resistant, I am lazy, I am lonely, I am anxious, I am stupid, I am unappreciated, I am unworthy,...

9/25/25 Greetings, fellow wanderers, wild-idea dreamers, and seekers of clarity, courage, and quiet joy! “What are you cultivating? What are we nurturing in our life? What are we giving our energy, resources, and attention to? Because whatever we are experiencing now is what we have been cultivating up until now.” (excerpt from The Zero Point Agreement—How to be who you already are by Julie Tallard Johnson) This shifts the narrative, doesn’t it? It brings the focus home and shines light on...

9/17/25 Welcome, edge-dwellers, light-bringers, and keepers of the key. Think back to a moment in your life when you were handed “the key to the kingdom,” so to speak—when you realized you were free to make your own choices…and equally responsible for your own mistakes. One of those moments for me came in the summer of 1993, stepping off a plane in Louisville, Kentucky, and onto a bus bound for Fort Knox. I was headed to the Army ROTC basic training course. I couldn’t have known how those...

09/10/25 Hey there, fellow cliff-leapers, edge-walkers, and wonder-seekers! Leap of Faith.Jumping toward the edges of your comfort zone. So I did a thing this past Saturday. Mind you—I’d done this thing before. But I also knew just how completely epic it is…and how it stretches every edge of my comfort zone every single time. Which is exactly why I said yes again. Because only in spaces like this one can moments arise that discombobulate every fiber of your beingness. Seven dear friends and I...

9/03/25 Greetings, seekers of light, resonance, and what whispers to your soul. What would happen if you intentionally designed a space for curiosity, magic, and awe? This past week, I helped someone install a 150-foot zipline—a new one to complement another already on their property. And yes… this one was long, fast, and high. (For clarification: this someone was vying for “Nana of the Year!” I loved this energy—someone willing to create spaces that instill physical challenge, excitement,...

8/27/25 Greetings, fellow wanderers and seekers of what’s real, hopeful, loving, and true. For some time, I’ve felt the pull to host a circle with wild-hearted folks like you. A space not just for personal reflection, but for the kind of resonance only found when we come together. There’s a unique power in twos and threes — and even more when hearts gather in one place. I’m thrilled to share that it’s finally happening!On Sunday, September 7th (2–4 pm), I’ll be hosting an in-person soul...
