I grew up during the ‘50’s, in Colorado Springs, Colorado, part of a large, loving family. We spent our time together hiking, camping and skiing in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. I was a sensitive child, the youngest in a family of five. I have always cared a great deal about others, especially those who seemed troubled. I was the kid on the bus sitting next to a stranger who shared their current challenge. At parties, the person who needed to unburden themselves would find me a willing listener. True stories of life struggles and triumphs fascinated me from an early age. I know I learn best from others sharing their own experience with me, so I decided to share mine. I hope you find it helpful as you face some of your big life challenges. Now I am happily retired. I live in a small community with my husband, near our children and grandchildren. I would love to hear from you, so please drop me a line!
