“Suffering is a great unifier, because all of us experience it and it puts all of us on the same ground. It’s also the great divider because it forces us to choose. We cannot stay neutral when dealing with suffering. We either have to believe i
“I’m staaaaaarving.” Anyone else’s kiddos claim this on a regular basis?In July of 2011, we received a phone call that would change our lives forever. Three little kids, whose mama couldn’t care for them anymore, needed a home. Twenty-four hou
Have you ever walked into a room and felt completely out of place? Like somehow there was something inherently flawed about you? That for some reason you just did not belong? Perhaps it’s happened to you from within a room you were even invited
I love math. Always have. Just today, I felt a small thrill when my kids returned from school (AKA their computers in the kitchen, thankyouCovid) with a math problem they needed my assistance with. The reason? An equation is straightforward, so

“Is there more than just shame at the end of this rope?”It had been an exceptionally hard day, and coming from someone battling Cancer for the third time, that was really saying something. Treatment had been especially brutal, and I was in des
I thought they’d come to offer compassion and support. Instead, they’d come to criticize and correct.I was desperate for comfort, maybe some wisdom or guidance. What I received was something quite different. When I look back on that day, the m
I remember it like it was yesterday…Certain memories seem to play in technicolor. These are the ones you can see, smell, feel for years. Where the terror hangs heavy and every hair on your body stands at attention. Physical trauma has a way of
Confession: I am far crueler to myself in my own head than I would ever dare be to a friend.Anyone else?Who are you to lead anyone else when you can barely lead your own family?Who are you to speak up when someone else could say it better?W
Wouldn’t it be nice if all of our shared experiences were about how much we all loveIce cream? Aisle 7…Or Pop-Tarts? Aisle 3…Or puppies? Wrong store… If the only things to relate over included the words sunshine or sandy beaches or mountain
There it was again. That phrase. The one intended to bring comfort in a time of chaos.“Everything happens for a reason.”They mean well, I tell myself again.  Sometimes our pain proves too heavy for loved ones to hold; so they shift under the
How many times have you heard the words fall from your mouth? “…I’m fine.”Even just today? As the crack splinters a little further through the chambers of your breaking heart, threatening its very foundation. As the next breath threatens not t
Have you ever found yourself buried by darkness? Sitting on the floor weighted down by a darkness you can feel, arms wrapped tightly around your knees, wondering how much longer you have before all the oxygen is siphoned from the room?Do you k
 We all have those moments. We get the text, the email, the Facebook message with someone who shares their unsolicited advice, criticism and opinions.It hurts. It exposes. It doesn't feel good.But then we have a choice. We can choose WHAT w
We all need to learn how to listen better. I've never met someone who has perfected the art of listening to everyone in their life. Usually we do well with some people and fail with others. Learn with me today as I share the five  necessary ski
From all my experiences and research, today I share the single most important strategy to help you diffuse a charged situation (which you will probably be able to use today). 
 Today I talk about a newer tradition and perspective for me involving Ash Wednesday, Lent and savoring the divine. 
Listen in as I discuss how to deal with fear and the five steps to get you through.Friend, whatever led you to land here, I need you to know something before you go:  ONE, you’re not alone. Not even close. You don’t need to clean up, buck up,
Whatever led you to land here, I need you to know something before you go:  ONE, you’re not alone. Not even close. You don’t need to clean up, buck up, or pull yourself together. We’re a bunch of in-progress people doing our best to find meanin
 Although some view Kindness as meek or weak, practicing kindness—especially with those you don't deserve it—can be some of the hardest and most rewarding work you do. Rather than say something about the recipient, kindness reveals the characte
