one step, one choice, one decision. ©
Welcome! and thank you, humbly, for stopping by.
With you in mind, I hope to: encourage digging deeper for personal meaning, motivation, and self-understanding; serve as a culture change catalyst to empower you on your own journey; and inspire you to evolve as you identify and (re)connect with purpose (your why).
Leveraging the art of storytelling and poetry, I hope to encourage courageous behaviors and the practice of active mindfulness as, together, we reimagine effective communication — it is the beauty of art & science that makes communication complex, yet alluring.

Featured Poem:
from recently published book ~
Dare? to be Free
Communicate.
A wistful listen to melodic meadow brook rhymes,
singling out the rivers that run through it. It’s divine.
But the silence is deafening.
Can you hear the movement of the bristles or the wind?
Rhythmic whims and forest trims,
a deceptive charm where the only goal is to win.
Communicate, communicate…does it resonate?
Yes.
Still, no one listens.

Living a courageous life with intention has been a key theme, both personally and professionally, ensuring to cultivate personal cultures conducive for well-being. Verum – The Unspoken is founded on three pillars of truth: impact, courage, and self-leadership.
Good intentions don’t create positive impact.
Cultivate your anticipated harvest as leading oneself, as well as others, effectively, with courage requires intentional action!
— Life is all about small actions and decisions that when you look back, make up the sum of our lives. When you focus on you, your healing, your growth…all else will align.
Courageously move forward despite.
Lead through uncertainty as the definition of success is relative & indefinite, while recognizing that without authentic self-awareness, there is no growth.
— It takes much courage and great strength to confront realities!! and a great deal of discipline, commitment, and purpose to withstand. However, know your impact and resilience to overcome is your greatest reward.
Self-leadership is courage in action !
Authentic leadership is embodied with love, kindness, and mindful communication, forcing one to take an honest self-inventory while holding oneself accountable and responsible for action.
— A true leader is one even when no one is looking. Recognizing that intentional/unintentional behaviors impact the whole, shifting cultures starts with how you lead you.
To that end, what will your personal brand and legacy be?
