I know I haven’t been posting much lately, and I want to share why. My parents’ health and living situation has required a lot of my time and energy these past few months. It has felt both tender and hard, and I’ve been giving myself permission to step back when I need to. At the same time, something important has been moving forward in the background. I’ve made a decision about my book. After exploring every option, I’ve chosen to self-publish An Invitation to Shine and to bring a publicist on board. This path gives me full creative freedom while also making sure the book has the support it needs to truly reach people. So while I may not have been as present here, please know I’m still deeply committed to this community. I’ll be sharing more behind the scenes of the publishing process and what I’m learning along the way. My hope is that by sharing, it not only brings you closer into the journey but also reminds you that even in the middle of life’s messiness, we can keep choosing what feels most aligned.
