Child Life Specialist work closely with pediatric patients and their families helping them cope with hospitalizations, illness, trauma, loss and bereavement. With an integration of her gifts, she listened to her calling to create The Fox and the Feather. The intention of this book is to enhance conversations of remembrance, in the hopes to give peace to the grieving heart in knowing that their loved one is still with them.
Through her personal yoga journey, she found a deep connection to her spiritual path, allowing the space for self-care, healing, intention setting and vision seeking. She listens to the signs and messages from spirit and continues to create through them. She is currently working on several children’s books that open conversations to address difficult topics, while strengthen emotional and spiritual intelligence. Parent resources and activities are at the end of each book and on her website.
