Sexual Assault Awareness Month


    The older I get the more I'm becoming comfortable with speaking out about my truth and doing work to help our most vulnerable people...children. I do not want any child to go through the kind of abuse I experienced as a child but if they do, I want them to have a place they can go to get help and justice.

    Helping children has become a huge priority to me, which is why I donate 100% of the proceeds from my books to organizations that help children be safe from all kinds of abuse, especially sexual abuse. 

    Today, I was blessed to go on my second television interview to talk about Erin's Law, my books, and my story. Today was my interview on Living Local and two weeks ago I was on Paula Sands Live. Click on the videos below to see the interviews.

I thought about all the people in my life. I've known many couples who ...

A New Book Coming April 2023

Dear Readers -  I know it's been awhile since I've written but please allow me this space to share with you what has been going on.  2022 was a bit of a roller coaster of a year. The school year ended with its many challenges and I resigned my position as a teacher and found my home working for my parish as the Director of Religious Education and school, teaching music two days a week. The year also brought the death of my mother, which also provided me an opportunity to continue my journey of healing through forgiveness and being at my mother's bedside in her final hours here on earth.  The beginning of 2023 was not as smooth as the end of 2022. It found me dealing with some health issues, postponing my three week trip to Italy. I spent four days in the hospital. However, these health issues gave me a new perspective on what it truly means to have faith and trust in God.  At the end of February I visited a priest friend of mine. As I was listening to his homily duri...
