Planting Seeds

Over the weekend, I was going through the arsenal of books I have collected through the years, searching out just the right one to kick off the Coffee Loves Wine book club. It is an idea I have been toying with for months but moving, life, and settling in stalled...
Get Out of the Way

Get Out of the Way

“I don’t know if I can do this.” How many times have you said this to yourself? How many times have we all guided a friend or loved one through a situation where they have said these words? Fear is the single most common threat to our happiness and well-being, the...

Kids, Equality, & Peeing on Trees
