When I was hit by an SUV, my second life began.

 

After 25 broken bones including a shattered femur, two brain bleeds, punctured lungs, nine blood transfusions , a month hospitalized and away from my then-three-year-old son, and multiple surgeries over the next year, I discovered a new understanding of myself and the world. I was incredibly lucky to have survived.

​

A lifetime of pain, a limp, physical therapy and my new life are now the "new normal". Part of this life-long journey includes many out-of-pocket expenses, and I'm grateful for any help.

​

Despite pain and suffering, I choose to heal from physical and emotional trauma as best I can. My post-accident life proves to be healthier, happier, and more well-balanced than I imagined. I realize life is for living, and each moment, we discover gratitude and love within ourselves - regardless of challenges with which we are faced.

​

Being a single mom with physical disability comes with a beautiful silver-lining: my increased appreciation of living in the now. This manifests in a number of ways, including daily meditation, practicing mindfulness, breath-work exercises, practicing parenting with understanding, journaling, healing in nature, daily exercise, and of course - starting my baking business. I also write space-themed children's books, available for purchase on amazon!

​

I've elevated my passion for baking and sharing decadent desserts, as shown on Instagram. When you're ready to indulge in dessert, please consider ordering from me. Everything is fresh and delicious.

​

My vision is to offer inspiration, motivation, and comfort to anyone experiencing pain or suffering. Hopefully some of the tools I offer on this website will help others find peace of mind while understanding the profundity and beauty in the nature of now.
