My three amazing and incredibly precocious kids keep me on my toes 24/7. They have taught me so much about parenting and about surfing the waves of Type 1 Diabetes, depression, anxiety, burnout, attention deficit disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (among many other things). I am a single mom who gratefully co-parents with their dad.
Parenting is H-A-R-D. I've learned that we all need a CheerTeam around us - especially when dealing with the stormier aspects of life.
As Chief Navigator of Stormy Seas I have personal and lived experience with neurodivergance, intergenerational trauma, abuse, violence, post-traumatic stress disorder, multiple chronic physical and mental illnesses, divorce, and currently long covid. Thankfully I also have as much, if not more, experience in resilience, gratitude, optimism, perseverance, tenacity, and humour. Omg humour is so key!
As a trained sociologist and aspiring psychology student I love understanding how and why things and people work the way that they do. I'm fascinated by the ways in which humans continue to create our realities - and then act as if our realities are fixed and unchangeable.
My professional experience includes three decades of strategic planning, policy analysis, workshop development and teaching.
