Thanks for stopping by and getting to know me!

I'm a 33 year old single mom of one. I enjoy a simple but wonderful life in my country home - a major fixer upper. I am an always aspiring writer and I also do freelance web design and content writing in my spare time. I am passionate about all kinds of writing and my dream is to get my manuscripts published.

My specialty is writing non-fiction articles and columns of an inspirational/motivational nature. I publish a daily column called "Daily Power Words" which features my insights and inspirations as well as healing exercises I have done myself. My website is built around this column which has enjoyed a lot of word of mouth success and was chosen as a Yahoo Editor's Pick at one point as well.

What are the Daily Power Words exactly?

In short, The power words are one word "mantras" designed to provoke thought and lead the reader to explore his/her own thoughts and feelings.

It started off as a personal journaling exercise where I would come up with a simple concept and elaborate on it by expressing thoughts, emotions, and symbolism that came to me. As I did this, I began to notice things about myself, my thought patterns, habits, beliefs and behaviors. I found the process to be very enlightening and healing. It helped me discover new strengths and talents while simultaneously shedding light on many of the challenges I was facing.

Eventually, I narrowed it down to starting with one word, a daily "mantra", bringing out all of the positive connotations of the word - it's "power". I used that to develop visualizations, more journal entries, or whatever I needed to keep myself motivated on my quest for healing and wholeness. I learned so much in the process, and it was so healing to me, that I decided to start sharing some of them with others through free daily mailings. It has been a wonderful journey, one that I am growing into a comprehensive "whole being wellness" seminar/book.

I am in the process now of publishing a book which features the whole collection of Power Words as well as bonus material. You can subscribe to get a free PowerWord article and exercise daily through my mailing list.

Other Hobbies/Interests


I am also studying Alternative Health and Herbalism. I enjoy fitness, hiking, natural living, frugal living or simple abundance. I own my own part-time house cleaning business and I enjoy good physical work too. My housecleaning business is a specialty niche as well as I make my own all-natural cleaners to use in my clients homes. When I'm not working I enjoy gardening, hiking, making soaps and lotion and other hands-on and natural crafts. I also love Tarot, Astrology, and other Metaphysical subjects as well and I own/operate a successful Tarot website that focuses on getting rid of the "fortune telling" myth and how to use the cards as personal tools for transformation as well.
