Magazine Mojo–My Celeb + Green Articles
Books are my thing. But for six years, I was the West Coast Features Editor at Balance magazine. Here are the hot mamas I was blessed to interview & write about. (Click on covers to read.) I never did figure out how to post my environmental articles for the Green Scene Dept. at the now defunct Delta’s Sky magazine (love them!), but crafting those pieces was an honor I will forever cherish.

Your book was the best 'retreat from my retreat' 🥰 I'm trying to pace myself through it so it doesn't end but it's hard! It’s so beautifully written.

Thanks to all of our amazing guests over the years! 💜And thanks to you, our beloved listeners! 💙Can you believe it’s been 9 years already since @DanielleLaPorte and I kicked off our first group of shows? I LOVED recording the episodes then as a team, and I now love flying solo…
I’m a weepy ball of emotions since Sunday’s announcement of my indefinite pause from my writing retreats. How is it that I’d make such a decision two days before starting a group with some of the most talented, heartfelt, enjoyable writers EVER?! Ah, the universe has such a sense…
🗞️News about my beloved writing retreats: I am pausing them indefinitely after 15 years and around 100 groups. 🫶🏻 Mama’s got a lot of exciting things going on and needs her energy for them. ✨ We’ve still got ways to stay connected!
