Why I Write
I’m just me, in a tiny corner of a great big world, loving my family and finding rich beauty in the little pieces of life, that make up the whole story.
Whole Life Richness comes from a heart longing to provide education on a natural lifestyle that helps bodies be at their optimal best, as well as inspire others to live life to the fullest, by learning to see the beauty and richness that can exist in the every-day, mundane.

My Thoughts for You
Life has many dimensions, be it spiritual, physical, mental or emotional. It involves all aspects like health and sickness, creativity and picking up the pieces. It is about relationships, broken hearts, joy that awes us and sorrows that drop us to our knees.
In the middle of it all, if one will #learntosee, beauty can be found. Even in the messy and the painful and the everyday mundane.
You must understand the whole of life,
Not just a little part of it.
That is why you must read,
That is why you must look to the skies,
That is why you must sing and dance,
And write poems
And suffer,
And understand,
For all of that, is life.”

Career
A former Board Certified Counselor with a Master of Arts in Counseling, I became a full-time, stay-at-home Mom in 2011. In 2014 we began foster parenting, which allowed me to utilize my former career in more ways than one. Prior to quitting my professional career, I worked with children, teens, and their families with a focus on trauma from childhood abuse, eating disorders, and depression and anxiety.
In addition to my prior education, I am now a Level 1 Certified Aromatherapist. I am also currently working on a Master of Science In Integrative Health, while simultaneously pursuing further qualifications for Level 2 Clinical Aromatherapist.
Raising Monarchs
One of our niche hobbies is raising monarchs every summer, in hopes to help restore the dwindling population.
