This month, I published what is my 10th poetry collection. Best of Me: New & Selected Poetry marks the occasion by beginning with about 100 new poems and then picks up in part two with the best poetry from the past 20+ years.

Rhyme & Reason
Last month, in the hectic holiday fun of planning and celebrating Christmas and my second wedding anniversary, as well as a fun trip, I published my 9th poetry book. Yes, my 9th! I’m excited about this book. I feel like I stretched myself a bit as a writer. I went outside my box a littleContinue reading “Rhyme & Reason”
40 Days on Keto
I’ve always been someone who “starts today.” I don’t wait for tomorrow morning, Monday or New Year’s Day to implement a course correction. I do it the moment it becomes evident to me. My mom says I was even like this as a little girl (and fun fact, my husband says this quality is “hot”Continue reading “40 Days on Keto”
Normalizing The Lifestyle We Want
When I first got into lifting, and started realizing many of things I’d have to start doing to be effective, I felt a bit isolated. Prioritizing protein, going to bed early, supplementing certain things, being super disciplined, I either felt like a weirdo or a superhero, and neither was very healthy! So I began fillingContinue reading “Normalizing The Lifestyle We Want”
Secret of Life
2023 has already been a wonderful year for me. I rang in the new year by getting remarried, to the love of my life. Nothing else this year or any year will top this. But also, I have published my 7th book, a collection of poetry called Secret of Life. I’m especially proud of thisContinue reading “Secret of Life”
Zestt Wellness is LIVE in America!

Co-founder, Darcy Schack began his journey to natural wellnessContinue reading “Zestt Wellness is LIVE in America!”
Poem: A New Season
Just sharing a poem today, feeling grateful for love. Available in my newest book, Unbroken, available on Amazon.
The Right of Life
Everyone is discussing the recent reversal of Roe v. Wade here in the United States. However, I’ve noticed a few things missing from the debates. I start by saying I’m unapologetically prolife. I subscribe to Ron Paul’s libertarian definition of being a prolife libertarian. I support freedom, including the freedom of the unborn to theirContinue reading “The Right of Life”
Not of This World
The Great Awakening – humanity’s response to the Great Reset – has been a powerful wave of truth, faith and love. It has brought people together, it has created a vision of what is needed to prevent a globalist takeover. But it comes at a cost. I’ve lost some joy with certain worldly things. ThereContinue reading “Not of This World”
Twenty Years Ago Today
It was cold in Edmonton, Alberta – my hometown in Canada – it was snowing. But it was warm in Houston, humid. We got off the plane, my family and I, arriving finally at our new home. That was twenty years ago today. My childhood dream had always been to move to America, to Texas.Continue reading “Twenty Years Ago Today”
