About
Welcome!
I am so glad you are here. Get comfy and let’s get to know each other. I am a mom, a wife, a photographer, and a writer. I am an incurable bookworm, an introvert, and I’m passionate about connecting with people through sharing our truth. I believe that you and I have a lot in common. No matter how our lives look on the surface, underneath we are both trying to figure out how to navigate this world. We struggle, more than we want to admit sometimes, and in areas where we think we shouldn’t struggle. We want connection. We want to feel like we are thriving in our lives. We laugh at the absurdities of life. And we want to be seen and accepted as ourselves. We can get there, together, and it starts with telling each other the truth about ourselves.
You can read some of my truths here, connect with me on Instagram, and join me in improving our wellness together in my newsletter.
Be A Finder
The Be A Finder Project really started over 20 years ago, when I went through a very difficult and scary experience that caused me to develop Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have since dealt with many mental health challenges as a result of that period in my life, including anxiety, panic attacks, and depression, as well as the permanent effects of PTSD. I struggled to let people around me know what I was going through, and what I was needing. I know that I am not alone in this. People in significant amounts of pain often have a hard time reaching out for help, and even when they do try their loved ones often don't recognize their cries for help. So I created the Be A Finder Project to give people with mental illness a voice, and to educate people on how to find and help the people in their lives who desperately need to be found.
If you would like to join our community, we would love to see you inside our Facebook group.
