Ready to take a
Deeper Dive?
Think it’s time to start breaking down some thought paradigms?
Inspired by fresh ideas, mindful reflections, and a touch of soulful magic?
You’re in the right place! Whether I’m writing about the soul, the culture at large, midlife (which I am smack dab inside), parenting, or our political landscape, the underlying themes are always about:

You can also find my work scattered about the web. The Urban Howl, Elephant Journal, The Edge Magazine, The Good Men Project, Grown and Flown, Rebelle Society and others.
