I am a first time memoirist. Mostly, I am professional speaker, health coach, physical therapist, and nutritionist. I was compelled to write my memoir while working with my therapist and 12 step program for children of alcoholics. Sharing with the world that I was not, like I pretended to be, perfect, was something I never thought I'd do, or benefit from. I'm glad I have shared my challenges. They have connected to me to others in authenitc ways.
