Give Me Shelter
I don’t know why I’m here. I keep coming back. It calls to me in the middle of the night, luring me from the deepest depths of dreamworld.

It's a Good Day for Worms.
They still tell stories about the time before, when we all lived Above. On top of the massive pieces of land that dot the face of our planet. The seven continents that are spread across the hemispheres of Earth. Some people still live up there, but most of us survive much closer to the core of our Earth. Down at the bottom of the oceans that have long since dried up to be little more than a system of salt-water rivers and lakes. The remnants of what was once an aquatic kingdom. Majesty to be beheld.

Facing Existential Fear on the Freeway
I've always been a confident driver. When I first started driving, you could even say I was over confident. I learned to drive on snowy, icy roads during a classic Canadian winter. I drove on city roads, on rural roads, on large highways, I even pulled a trailer of horses behind my family's GMC Sierra 2500. All by the time I was 17.

The Mystery of the Bog Body
On May 8, 1950, a mysterious discovery was made in the bogs of the Jutland Peninsula, Denmark. A group of peat moss cutters, among them a boy of only 11 years old, unearthed a chilling find in the cold mud of the barren boglands. They had uncovered the body of a middle-aged man, stark naked but for a small cap on his head and a leather braid around his neck. The local homicide unit was called in and the unidentified man was taken to the police station to be autopsied.

Spark Joy in Your Life with a Vision Board
I’ve always been a daydreamer. When I was a little girl, I was someone you could've described as having their head in the clouds. Constantly traveling to faraway lands in my mind, imagining all of the different adventures I would have and all of the exciting people I would meet. It’s funny how all of that daydreaming has manifested itself as a powerful tool to lead the kind of life I used to dream of.

Boss. It's More Than a Title, it's a State of Mind.
Let's get our facts straight. Moms are bad a** bosses. Each mom out there hustles, day-in and day-out to give their children the life that they deserve. It looks different in each mom's circumstance, and every mom has their own special brand of boss mom magic. They use their powers to teach us extraordinary life lessons. From self-care, to love advice, to moral guidance. Moms provide us with the foundation for our future, and we are lucky to have these boss ladies in our lives.

An Open Letter to my Gemini Husband
Dear Gemini, You are amazing. Your natural curiosity, thoughtful nature and adaptable personality, inspire me on the daily. Others might know you for your intelligence, and ability to carry a good conversation, but those who are lucky to know you well, are privy to the secret life of the Gemini. I say secret, because you truly are an enigma. Some might say “two-faced” but the reality is that you are so multi-faceted. You’re truly able to meld into different personas depending on your environment. Those who know the real you, know that you are deeply reflective, analytical and empathetic.
