Reawaken Your Heart
My purpose is to inspire the fire that burns within you and reawaken your heart for life and love. To inspire means to breathe life into…. The ‘fire within’ is the healing power of love. When we open our hearts to bring love to life, we can then embrace the beauty of life, the wonder of living and share creativity, intelligence, and unlimited potential with all of humanity.
The hospice patients I served often spoke of the simple pleasures as being the best.
• To listen with the heart and be heard deeply.
• To touch with care and to be held by love.
• To notice the stars on the sky and the smell of the earth.
• To give something back to humanity.
• To reflect all these miracles back to the Universe with a grateful heart.
These are the things that give life meaning.
As a professional speaker, life transition coach, and former hospice chaplain, I’d be honored to assist you in reclaiming joy, passion, and meaning in your life or in the life of your organization.

See with Love
The one I seek is within me.
Give me new eyes so I can see the love inside myself.
Give me new eyes so I can see the love inside others.
May I rise into love with all that is.
May I see all as sacred.
May I see with love.
