It was so much FUN to meet Annie F Downs and get to be a part of the See Hear Love viewer question segment! I have been working on See Hear Love since episode 1 and it felt so cool to be in front of the camera! I was first introduced to Annie when a…

If you’ve ever made a pro/con list in the middle of the night, chances are you understand the power of an unmade decision. One reason why decisions can be so overwhelming is because we’re afraid we’ll make the wrong choice.  Unmade decisions hold a lot of power to either close us up in fear or…

I asked my mom what her favourite Bible verse was, and it came by no surprise which one she chose.   Proverbs 3:5-6 // “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.”   I’ve heard…

A tribute to my Mother who has given her all. All her time, surrendered all her desires, all her love, given all of herself for her family. “Where do I belong?” she asked as she boarded a plane that took her on a voyage quite literally into the unknown. At sixteen years old my mother…
