Writing 

"Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body."  - Proverbs 16:24

I love interviewing people and writing their inspirational stories. Through my work with Guideposts, and some of the books I've written, I've had the honor of listening to amazing people, hearing their stories and then using my writing experience to help tell their stories to encourage others. 

In my years of writing I've been published in numerous magazines such as Today's Christian Woman, Guideposts, MomSense, Thriving Family and more. I also managed and wrote a weekly blog for Flatirons Community Church in Colorado. I had the honor of working with many talented writers who volunteer their gifts to serve this community. Read my most recent blog here.

I've written four books of my own and worked with numerous authors, publishers and agents on more than 25 books.

Journal writing Workshops

I’ve created an interactive journaling workshop called The Journal Experience, Journaling for a Healthy Soul, that takes people on a journaling adventure, helping them discover spiritual and personal transformation.

This experiential workshop features a series of journal writing techniques and exercises. Each person will discover what journaling tools work best for them. Whether someone wants to work on a relationship, write creatively about a special moment, organize time or brainstorm solutions, this workshop will inspire the writer.
