Thinking, and working, through grief is the most difficult part of loss. Often, you don’t know what your thinking {or even IF you’re thinking}… The best way, I’ve found, to actively think through your thoughts is by writing them down. Once written, you can revisit, review, and rewrite over and over again.Remember, you’re not writing […]
Phew! I made it through…it was an absolute mad dash at the ‘end’ to get everything done, set up, and pretty. But, I think things turned out OK 🙂Sharing Solace hosted our very first event at the Just for Her Expo in Kansas City last weekend. It was totally exhausting {…emotionally, physically, mentally…} and worth […]
Maybe I’m too naive and trusting. Maybe I just want to like everyone. Either way, last week I had a chance encounter with complete strangers – and it was wonderful!I originally ‘met’ @OurClassCeeLife on Instagram. I read about her story and saw she was coming through Kansas City. So, of course, I reached out and asked […]
Wow! It’s been an emotional weekend! For a LOT of reasons…mostly because I put my heart and soul on the line and officially www.SharingSolace.com out there to the world!If you’re reading this post then you found it! Yea! I hope you’ll spend a few minutes watching the video above and taking a look at my […]
I feel so official {and a little more adult-y than I would like}. I wrote my first press release. There’s just something so professional about a press release that’s a little intimidating, but it’s done now!{** ‘I’ meaning myself and several rounds of revisions for a professional journalist…so really only about 20% of it I wrote, but […]
I CANNOT TELL you how excited I am!I have three {YES! THREE!!} big announcements to share with you #1 WE ARE PATENT-PENDING!Yup, you read that right. After months and months {and MONTHS!} of being elusive and cryptic with exactly what Sharing Solace is all about – I can now share our mission and exactly how we […]
It’s been a bit of a tough week…I wouldn’t go so far as to say ‘tough’ in the traditional sense, maybe just really emotional. This week was full of ‘new firsts’ that took me out of my comfort zone…like WAY out of my comfort zone. And the picture above sums it all up.I did the unthinkable. […]
How cool is this!??! I’m an ‘expert’… Although it’s not really something that anyone wants to be an expert at. Oh well, I’ll take it…It was wonderful chatting with Sarah from Messy Roads to Motherhood. And it’s been such a long time since I’ve shared my entire ‘mommyhood’ story. And, there is something very freeing about sharing […]
So, here I am, Day #1 of my once in a lifetime trip to India. Twenty-nine hours on 3 planes (with an extra landing thrown in). I did it all by myself too. I didn’t freak out when my flight to Frankfurt wasn’t on the board, or when I went to the wrong gate even […]
I love…d… holidays. All of them but Halloween was my favorite. It was fun to dress up as someone {or something} else, walk around the neighborhood with all your friends, and have strangers give you candy {Remember this was the 80’s and 90’s when as long as there weren’t any razor blades in your candy […]
