In 2010 I was in my mid 40’s, at the height of my career as an Executive Manager in a major bank. In April of 2010, I was getting ready to take 6 weeks long service leave to spend some quality time with my beautiful husband. We were going on a road trip, through South … Continue reading My Story
Whatever your chronic disease or circumstances, don't let your happiness be defined by what has been taken away from you. Think upon the things that make you smile.
Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what day it is.It matters that I make the most of every single day and make the moments within the day count. It matters that I don’t waste time being discontent about my circumstances.

Hi Everyone, I know not all my blog followers are podcast fans, but I wanted to share my latest episode with you as it is an extension of my previous blog post, "Pausing to Ponder." In this latest podcast episode, I share my recent complex health update with details not in my blog post.
