About Me

I’m a simple woman on a journey aiming to improve myself each and every day while helping and connecting with whoever I can along the way.  I hope that by reading my blog, readers can:

  • Take away something reading about my experiences and gain a new perspective on topics I discuss.
  • Relate to personal struggles we may share.
  • Most importantly, I hope readers will share any related experiences or personal stories with me as well, so that I may gain new perspectives and knowledge about the world from you, too.

I hope that by opening up and sharing my experiences with you, I can connect with and relate to people from all different backgrounds.  I hope that we can listen to each other earnestly and respect our differences.
