How Saying “Yes, And” Changed My Life
In my very first post on this blog, I shared a story about the very first time someone told me to "find your voice." (Missed it?

I tend to be a pretty analytical … Continue reading Belief + Faith = Freedom

You’re walking around, completely at peace, don’t have to worry about what you’re going to wear, you’ve got a hot husband, and you’re in the presence of God! Amazing right? Now, imagine yourself as Eve as she and Adam realize the mistake they’ve made by eating … Continue reading Breaking Up With Shame
