Recently I met Natasha Evans on Instagram. She is the producer of The Planted Mindset Podcast. I was honored to be a guest on her podcast last week and had a wonderful time! If you’d like to listen here is the link.

One year ago today, I took a leap.

The leap into the unknown. It was scary and exciting all at the same time. No one really knew I was going to do it except my husband and two friends.

The lessons I have learned from what I did:

🤜Don’t wait to do something you love.

🤜Believe in yourself. AND stopping listening to that little girl in your mind wearing the FEAR shirt. (please get her out of the driver’s seat)

🤜Your job is to put your art/gifts into the world. Your job is NOT to judge them, but to set them free. They will resonate with who they are supposed to.

🤜The more you “ship” your work/talents the easier it gets.

I am thankful that one year ago I published my first novel Queen Anne’s Lace. The paper manuscript of that novel sat for 12 years on my bookshelf. Finally, after encouragement from my friends and a lot of work to get past self doubt, I published. I highly recommend Seth Godin’s book Leap First.

Just like finding a old friend again, Writing and I have become the best of friends again. I am now writing my 4th full length novel and will publish more books in 2021 and continued to publish for the rest of my life. I thank everyone that has supported me through this journey.

BUT- I want YOU to know don’t wait on doing what you want to do, what you are called to do, and what you love to do — please DO IT!!!!
