The Becoming Within
When we think it’s over, something new is already growing quietly inside us. I look out upon this tree daily–one strong, established trunk with another tree growing from within it. At first glance, I thought, How unusual. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. But the longer I look at this beauty, the…

What have I done?
Last year I left the USA. I bought a ticket to the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. Since my departure from South Florida I have had to make “slight” adjustments to my attire…LOLOL I now wear a hat, coat, scarf and gloves when exiting the front door. And now… These gems arrived yesterday from…

Mindful Moments: A Tranquil Transformation
Today, I’m sharing a slice of tranquility from my workday—a view that never fails to ground me. From my living room, I gaze out at the serene Belfast Lough, a constant reminder to pause and breathe.

The Shift That Changed Everything: How I Reimagined My Life Through Simplicity
Many Years Ago, I Figured It Out (For Me)… I was exhausted. Overwhelmed. Stressed to the max. Running from pillar to post, achieving next to nothing—except racking up miles as a real estate agent.

Your Knight in shining armour has missed his exit
About three years ago, I woke up in the middle of the night, wandered into the bathroom, and caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. And I said out loud—clear as day: “I don’t want to die here.” My life felt stuck. I was like a mouse on a wheel, running in circles but…

Wardrobe Simplification: How a Daily Uniform Can Bring Freedom and Confidence 🙂
I have a confession: As a Realtor in a previous life walking into overstuffed closets made me physically uncomfortable. Stinky. The ones – bursting with clothes, yet somehow their owners still feel they have “nothing to wear.” After years of experimenting, I’ve discovered the joy of a daily uniform, and I’d love to share my…

A Sacret Wall Within
Centering myself has become my truth through simply witnessing how magnificently life unfolds. In those moments of pure marvel, I’ve discovered who I truly am. I often reflect on the concept of having my very own wall—but what I’ve found is far more profound. My foundation isn’t built of brick and mortar, but of an…

The Great Snow Standoff of Saturday Morning
Ok, call me a wimp, a woose, out of touch… go on, I can take it. I’m a big girl. But on Saturday morning, I threw on my gym clothes, grabbed my keys, and opened the front door, ready to conquer the day. And then… I froze. There it was. Covering my car. Covering the…
