Much of my inspiration comes from nature. My early love for the ocean, found on the South Shore of Massachusetts, has transitioned into a deep passion for the mountains here in New Hampshire, and I wanted to share that with my first book.

And what happens if tomorrow never comes? If you never get your life back the way it used to be? Never get your health back. Your wealth back. Your love back. Whatever it is you lost back. What then? Can you let go of what was and accept your new reality? Finding My Way to…

The Singular Mission

The Beauty of The Singular Mission

Posted on October 25, 2021October 1, 2025

Regular life has a lot of shit going on, doesn’t it? Too much really. And having a job and paying the bills is more than enough to deal with, but trying to parent in this digital age is an added burden I didn’t anticipate when I signed up for this whole parenting thing. Trying to…
