The Symmetry and Necessity of Fire: Nature’s Purge, Business’s Renewal
Fire is often seen as a force of destruction—a primal, consuming energy that leaves nothing but ash in its wake. Yet, look closer, and you’ll find that fire is not merely an end, but a beginning. In nature, fire is a paradoxical architect: it devastates, yes, but it also rejuvenates. The forests and grasslands that burn are not lost; they are transformed, made fertile for new life. This profound symmetry between destruction and renewal is not limited to the wild places of our world. It echoes, too, in the realm of business, where the necessity of a fiery purge can clear the way for fresh ideas and sustained growth. Fire…

Hey Entreprenuer’s, It’s time for a Refresh!!!
Did you know your business can thrive like a lush forest, but only if you prioritize self-care and rejuvenation? Think about it: a forest needs sunlight, water, and fertile soil to flourish. Similarly, YOU need mindful moments to recharge and grow! Without them, burnout creeps in, creativity wanes, and your business feels the strain. Just as a forest benefits from periods of rest and renewal, so do you! So take a break from the hustle, step away from the screen, and reconnect with yourself. Whether it’s a walk in nature, a meditation session, or simply enjoying a cup of tea, these moments of self-care are not a luxury—they’re essential for…

Hello Beautiful. Nature’s Bounty!!!
Earth. Appreciating our amazing planet. Some days if you ever feel stuck in a rut or at a loss for creativity and excitement, just put on your walking shoes and head outside! So much splendor and visual inspiration surround us every day. From the swaying moss on the trees to the statuesque crane full of dignity and grace. Stop to inhale the scent of a magnolia tree, rosebush oven freshly cut grass. Take in the serenity of your local pond. Notice how everything has its calm presence and flowers gently with the slight breeze, creating a symphony of nature’s sounds. The ducks, birds, squirrels, and other inhabitants of the watering…

Let It Snow!!!
A few cool fun facts and benefits of the fluffy white stuff.. Okay, so most of you know I would much rather lounge on a sandy beach any day rather than be pelted with a snowball. And Although Hawai’i will always be home in our hearts, we have been able to appreciate the beautiful mountains and snowfalls in Denver and Boise. Being born and raised in the Great Lake State of Michigan, I have seen my fair share of icy cold winters and blistering winds but there are also some amazing joys that the snow brings as well. Aside from making snowmen, snowangels and igloos, a beautiful crisp white snowfall…

Oh what a time we had in Breckendridge Colorado!
Tis the season to be Jolly, I wish I had the proper words to describe the pristine beauty sitting atop the Colorado rockies. The mountains were exploding with pops of vibrant green through the pillow of white cloudy puffy snow! Sprinkles of sunshine danced off of the leaves and snowflakes creating an absolute marvel of a sight and experience! We recently had the pleasure of celebrating Colin’s birthday at the Grand Lodge at peak 7 in Breckenridge and it was a ski lover’s dream! Or better yet a winter vacation lovers dream as I did not ski. But there was so much more than shredding to do in order to…

Falling for Fall!
Okay, I have to say that I am becoming a fall and winter convert. Yes, although I believe myself to be a true creature of the sun and humidity, I am coming around to the lure of the two seasons following spring and summer. I used to dread the first frost, chilly wind gusts and changing leaf color, and now I am beginning to embrace the beauty of fall and its many wonders. The color splash of beauty is at the very top of my fall fav list. There is something about grabbing a look at the vibrant colors of leaves, grass, and sunkissed sky that leaves particular warming of…

Nature’s Refuge
Simplicity in a time of chaos. In today’s times it is so abundantly clear that there are not enough hours in the day to accomplish all of the items on our to-do lists. Everyone seems to be racing at light speed to get here or there, shuttling kids to one gathering to another, impressing clients, or bosses to climb up the corporate ladder. While hurling through life at warp speed to reach goals and milestones, everyone seems to just be getting their actual life spoon fed to them by means of social media, phone messages and endless texts. Everything rushed, nothing truly appreciated. I enjoy and need my time walking,…
