Life is always in a state of flow, and we don’t always know where the flow is taking us. Sometimes it all seems mundane and predictable. Then life throws a curveball – for better or for worse.
With my move to the Midwest in January, there’s been a lot of change recently. Much of it has been amazing. I’m enjoying life in downtown Indianapolis. Joe and I … Read More

I’m addicted to this song by Grace. It’s not a new song, in fact, it’s a remix of the classic by Lesley Gore, “You Don’t Own Me.”
Wherever you look, women are sharing that message.

“WHY would you write about that?”
That’s a message I got in response to my last She Buzz column. The one where I shared a dark story from my past – a story too many women have experienced, in one form or another.

I turned on the Ted Talk channel and watched the amazing offering by Brené Brown on … Read More

I wanted to enjoy the red carpet at the Golden Globes – really, I did!
In the past, it’s been one of my favorites.
The Star Power!
The Couture Dresses!
The Mani-Cam!
The red carpet “pre-game show” has become its own industry, complete with dedicated TV programs before, during and after the (supposed) main event.
This year, though, I couldn’t quite get into the spirit of enjoying … Read More
