Thank you for stopping by!

I'm a born and bred NuYoRican from the Lower East Side now living in the Sunshine State in Miramar, FL. I've worked most of my life in the nonprofit, education and ministry worlds. I'm a mom of two very different boys (Sam and DJ-my special needs angel) and a wife of 30 years to a most fabulously supportive husband, Hiram. I am always seeking to learn and love to share it with anyone who would listen.

I have a passion for many things but my top are anything related to the Church, leadership, biblical justice and women.  This site represents those passions in my writing. It's my personal site where I share my heart and my research but mostly where I share about living a life of faith and doing all you can to bounce back and rise up when life hits you hard. I can talk about it because I've done it. A few times over.

My hope is that I can inspire you to action and to rise "like the Lotus" in life, love, leadership and ministry to add beauty to your world.
