About the author
I am fueled by helping people to improve their lives and find more joy that aligns with what sparks them. Nature has this sparking impact on me. I love photography and imbedding myself right in the thick of Mother Nature, the colors, smells, and beauty of it all. This leads to the great joy I find in canoeing with my husband in the wilderness, taking in the animals and bounty of Minnesota’s 10,000+ lakes. I am a life-long student of philosophy and enjoy writing and listening to all types of music. I have a long-term career in marketing and a B.S. degree and Masters work in business.
