Learning to Rest in a World That Won’t Slow Down (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This morning began with the perfect conditions for a day of rest: gloomy, moody skies and rain pattering against the windowsills. The house was warm. The kitty was snoring.

But before I began, I decided to take one, super duper, quick peek at my inbox.Doom. Gloom. Va-va-voom went my afternoon…One quick peek, turned into five hours later!!

The Discomfort of the In-Between (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve written and rewritten this article several times over the past couple of days. Trying to find the right words to share, but also dealing with vulnerability fatigue.As a writer, your life becomes the raw material for your work. That is certainly the case here.
