Big Girls Do Cry
Can we talk about mental health for a minute? I know, it isn’t “mental health day” or “mental health month”, but do we really need a day or a month to talk about something that in a normal year affects each and every one of us? Not to mention we’re not living in a...
Metamorphosis
A change of the form or nature of a thing or person into a completely different one. I’ve found the journey of a butterfly resonating so strongly with me this year. And no, not in a cheesy I’m going to tattoo a butterfly on my ankle kind of way. This year has had a...

How Many Summers?
