Welcome! I am so glad you are here.

In these pages, I explore the landscape of surrender, hope, and grief. I found freedom in consenting to many paths I did not choose. An unwelcome divorce, hidden sexual abuse, and the death of my beloved son each led me on a journey of healing, transformation, and restoration. I never expected to find beauty and freedom in living with a heart broken open, but in faith, grief led me to my truest, most beloved self. I pray my story shares something meaningful for your own heart and healing. I pray you will join me on the

Journey of the Beloved.

May it all be for the glory of God.

Let Yourself Be Loved!
