I have been in conversations lately with multiple people who like me are beginning realise that that is how we… Continue reading Be You! Sparkle & Shine
What Really Matters to you?
Today’s Daily Prompt made me smile.. “Zoo”.. and my first thought was how sometimes people say that life can be a zoo. What does that even mean for you?

I never really thought that shame was such a big deal in… Continue reading Shame.. Not Good Enough
Journeying Into Vulnerability
