The three of us at our table each presented a "hook". Mine was chosen to go in front of the group...

(it's better with the sound on) I'd love to hear your response to this is. A good opener? What do you think the "answer" is? I did get some laughs, which is what I was going for!!

I should have ditched the notebook, but I had like 30 seconds to prepare...notes are my biggest crutch...but practice makes perfect, and I'm excited to be part of something amazing.

We started even though we weren't sure about the weather. Glad we did. Start the hike in drizzle. Finished in the sun. Drove back to the hotel in the rain.

I love homemade squash soup, and super easy to make.

1. Cut squash in half. Clean out the cavity.
2. Fill the cavity with apple, a little honey (or skip) and spices
3. Bake until done.
4. Once cooled, peel the skin off.
5. Add the squash to a blender.
6. Blend with some bone broth and coconut milk.
7. Add more spices to fit your taste.
8. EAT UP!!! YUMM!!

Being outside is so good for the soul.

The quote in the image I am sharing stopped me in my tracks today.

Since the release of my book, 6 Million Reasons to…Hope, I have had so many wonderful conversations where people have begun sharing their stories with me. But not every conversation has been easy.

Not long ago, someone opened a conversation with me by saying, "You need to get over your childhood. You need to move on. I hope telling your story will help you get over things."

My first instinct was to be defensive, but I didn't. I did get emotional though, and in the end, I thanked her for her honesty — not because I learned something new about myself, but because I learned a great deal about her.

Telling my story was never about not being "over" my childhood. It is about having lived through trauma as a child and the hurt that happens with life. Through sharing my story, I am sharing how I overcome the hurt with growth. It is about learning who I am, what I'm feeling and why — and choosing to embrace all of it rather than run from it. And if someone learns from my story, connects to my story, or is inspired by my story, then I will keep telling it!

Here is what I know to be true. When something has genuinely hurt you, you do not just get over it. What you CAN do is create awareness around your beliefs and the stories you tell yourself. You learn to forgive — yourself and others. You begin to recognize your triggers and your response to them.

It is through conversations and sharing our stories, even the difficult ones, that we truly connect, and that is what is important to me - heartfelt connections.

So keep sharing. Keep showing up. Your story matters more than you know.

I know September 24th might feel like it's far away — but trust me, it will be here before we know it!

This is my first book, and I am still pinching myself. I cannot even begin to describe what it means to have finally gotten it out into the world. This has been years in the making — years of learning, growing, failing, trying again, self doubt, breakthroughs, and a whole lot of heart — and somehow, I finally found a way to put it all into words. Completing it is one of the things I am most proud of, and I could not be more excited to share it with you in person.

Come grab a copy, celebrate with me, and let's talk all things hurt, hope, perseverance, resilience, and everything in between.
