Help Fulfill a Lifelong Dream of Authorship

Help me make my dream come true!

I am raising $4500 for an opportunity to be part of a collaborative, international best selling book called, “Discover the Gift of Joy: Experiencing Joy in Life, Work and Relationships.” This funding will not only provide me my own chapter in the book, it will also provide 1:1 coaching sessions with 2 international best selling authors and coaches, along with Masterminds & Masterclasses that will help catapult my writing to a new level. The book itself will be available on Amazon and in Barnes & Noble! At the book launch, I will have the opportunity to speak on stage, in the presence of other authors and spiritual leaders, many of whom I have considered mentors for years. Every item, every action, every goal that is included in this package of amazingness, has been on my vision board for most of my adult life…some since I was a teenager! Help me make this happen!

For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to write a book. To see my name on the cover of a best seller in a bookstore…dream come true! The vision has always been there and when I turned 50 on the edge of 2025, I decided it was time my voice was heard. I was finally ready to step outside my comfort zone and fears and I started saying “YES” to those opportunities when they came up. A few weeks ago, a woman I have admired and followed on social media for years (who also is the author of the original Discover the Gift) shared that she and another woman have a boutique publishing company through Victory Publishing and are looking for authors interested in sharing heartfelt stories of joy, happiness and positivity. We started chatting about my writing and I knew I was receiving guidance from my Mom and the Universe to do this and I absolutely said “YES!”

I am asking for your help because I just started working again a few months ago. As some know, I took a sabbatical the beginning of 2022 to help my Dad care for my Mom as she progressed with Alzheimer’s Disease. Being by her side those 2 1/2 years are moments I will treasure forever and as many on my social media pages know, inspired some of my most heartfelt writings. I was also able to support my amazing partner and together, he and I gained custody of his severely disabled daughter over the course of 6 difficult hearings. It has been a journey and I have no regrets of any of the work I’ve done during this time because it has taught me a new way of living, a new way of seeing others and a joy in life that even I have a hard time describing. It has also left me with a limited bank account. These experiences have fueled my heart with a desire to share those heartbreakingly, joyous moments and insights with the words I love so much.

If you have ever felt moved or inspired by words I’ve shared on social media (Wednesday Date Nights are still my most treasured) or you’ve read my blogs and thought, “she should write a book!” please help me fulfill this dream and help me share my voice with the world. Every little bit will help and anything received above my goal will go towards my own book that I will be working on next!
