Spiritual writing for the hardest questions in life…
In writing, podcasting, and speaking, I seek to bridge the hope and meaning of faith with the reality of suffering and grief.

TIME AND DESPONDENCY
When I was seven, my dad turned forty, prompting within me an existential crisis over the brevity of life. Thus began a life-long fascination and horror with time and mortality that stil compells my writing decades later.

INFERTILITY
My husband and I are one of the 10-15% of couples who suffer from infertility. A growing portion of my writing is devoted to finding meaning and marital satisfaction in the turmoil of infertility grief.
