“But what if she can barely whisper?”
That phrase found its way to my journal one night as I wrote through the darkest time of my life. Facing divorce from my marriage and evangelical Christian faith during a global pandemic, writing quickly became a source of deep introspection, solace, and healing.
The light slowly returned as I began to believe my hero could be found within. All I had to do was give her space to step forward.
Gradually, as I wrote, I healed and she became stronger, eventually turning into a roar.
I know writing isn’t for everyone, but for some, it is everything.

About Me:
I’m a poet, writer, and remote piano teacher. My first poetry memoir, Barely a Whisper: Poems from the Heart of a Woman Re-becoming was a #1 Top Seller of Religious and Spiritual Poetry. I am on a mission to empower women on their journeys of self-discovery and transformation by offering poetry and prose that gives voice to their struggles, celebrates their strength, and ignites their belief in their worth. Outside of writing and teaching, I enjoy nature, practicing yoga, and spending time with my 6 children.
Join us as we explore what it means to become, un-become, and re-become through the transformative power of writing.
My first poetry memoir, Barely a Whisper: Poems from the Heart of a Woman Re-becoming is available now!
