Published Works

I have been fortunate to have my writing on loss, resilience and living well published in an ongoing, monthly column entitled "Happy Tears."  While these articles have all been inspired in some way by my journey through grief, the topics in each column are wide-ranging and varied.  "Happy Tears" topics include: grief as a catalyst for personal growth; coping with the intensity of loss; self-care as a tool for healing and wellness; finding community in one's time of bereavement; how giving to others uplifts both giver and receiver; staying open to change; and so on.  My writing on looking for love after loss was also featured as the cover story in one of the last issues of the online publication, The Insider.
 

Please continue to visit this page to look for new content as it will be updated regularly. I hope that you will find meaning in these pieces but also hope that you might be inspired to tell your own story as you learn more of mine.
