I used to live life shackled by fear, doubt, and worry. I put on a happy face while navigating my day-to-day duties, but I was emotionally drained, stressed, and unhappy. When I hit rock bottom, and was diagnosed with depression and anxiety, I was determined to live life differently. I knew there had to be another way. Out of that determination, and guidance from Spirit, the "Living in the Light" blog was born. It documents my spiritual journey out of the darkness and into the Light. After nine months of publicly sharing my journey, and consciously releasing my attachment to the ego, I experienced a powerful spiritual awakening. I went from living in fear, doubt, worry, and stress to complete inner peace. My greatest passion has become assisting others on their own journey to inner peace.

Click the tabs at the top of the page to learn more about the From Stress to Peace 21-Day Challenge, Living in the Light Retreats, 1:1 sessions, and the Living in the Light Community - all of which are designed to support your journey to inner peace. I appreciate you taking the time to visit the blog and look forward to supporting you in any way I can!
Living in the Overflow
On Sunday, we attended church service and the topic was “Interconnectedness”. It was a great message and was a great reminder that we are not separate from one another…we are all one in Spirit. One of the things the minister said that really struck a chord with me and, in particular, my husband was “we can […]
We Are More Than Flesh
On Saturday, my lesson in the A Course in Miracles workbook was “I am Spirit”. I read it right after meditation, like I typically do, and this time I pushed myself to really practice the lesson for 5 minutes every hour as the workbook stated. I was to repeat this statement as I practiced each hour: Spirit […]
A Poem: Finding the Light Within
It’s been a long time (maybe 10 years) since I wrote a poem. This one just came to me as I was driving my boys to the playground on Saturday. I had to pull over to write it down. I finally have an internet connection at home (we lost our cable due to the bad […]
From Darkness to Light
This week is the last of my 12-week Foundations of Spiritual Living course. I just completed my final project, and thought I would share it with you all. It’s a visual representation of how the course, and other spiritual development work I’m made a priority over the last 6 months, has impacted my life. The “before” […]
Perfect Storm
This weekend was truly a roller coaster ride…thrilling…scary…heart-pounding…and definitely had lots of ups and downs! Here’s the rundown of events and the lessons I learned from it all. Enjoy! In preparation for my husband being away for a week-long business trip, I went “big” grocery shopping on Friday so that I would have enough food for […]
Eternal Life, Part 2: My Path to Inner Peace
Earlier this week I shared my recent thoughts about immortality in a blog entitled “Eternal Life, Part 1“. I also mentioned I would follow up with “part 2” and share the ways in which I am reminding myself of our real home (Heaven) so that I don’t get caught up in what I see “in the world” on a daily […]
Eternal Life, Part 1
I’m taking a 12-week course entitiled “Foundations for Spiritual Living” and last week’s teachings were on Immortality. We read some really interesting passages and shared our own visions of what happens after we leave our bodies. Everyone had a unique vision of what happens next and how the transition takes place, but one thing was […]
Let It Go
I have been super excited this week for a number of reasons, but one of the big ones has been that I have an AMAZING vision in mind that ignites my true passions and will take me in new directions. I talked about this a little bit in last week’s “Dreams are our Guideposts” blog, but now I’ve had another […]
Being the Light
I feel SO good today! You know why? I am SO grateful for the greatest gift in the world…feeling perfect peace and love. I feel like I have new eyes, new ears, and a new mind (although I know that I have just uncovered what was there already, but was hidden behind my clouded perspective). It […]
Dreams are our Guideposts
My husband just got back from a week-long trip to Sweden for work and he brought me back the most thoughtful gift (pictured above) – perfect for where I am on my spiritual journey. The ring says “dreams are our guideposts” and the small roll of paper is to write your dream, the container is […]
