I struggle with September being Suicide Prevention Month and participating in it because our children who go Home by their own hand are NOT suicide. They are who they were before their passing. Ruby is not suicide. Ruby is Ruby. She said that she hoped she would be remembered as the person she was and…

For a long time, I believed that saying yes made me a good person. If someone needed help, I wanted to be there. If someone asked for my time, I would find a way to make it work. If saying yes meant someone else was happy, then yes seemed like the right answer. The problem…

Isn’t it interesting how the loudest voice we hear is often our own? And sometimes, if we are honest, it is not always the kindest voice. Recently, I travelled to the UK with my sister, Arlene Mills, to take part in an intensive mediumship training called The Confident Medium with Lynn Probert. The week was both exhilarating and exhausting,…

I have been wanting to write about something for quite a while, but I needed time to formulate it in my mind. Even so, it has always been very close to my heart. We as a society tend to try to fix things. It is incredibly uncomfortable to see people hurting, not only physically but…

We have entered a New Year and I’ve been sitting in it with a massive mix of emotions: Love and pain. Hope and yearning. Sadness and joy. They all seem to exist together for me now. None cancel the other out. They just live side by side. But my family—they make it easier. They always…

Sometimes all we have to hold onto is Hope. Hope that our loved ones are wrapped in peace…Hope that they are pain-free…Hope that they are held in love and eternal light… Some days, that Hope feels like the only thing that keeps us putting one foot in front of the other. Hope that this isn’t…

December carries its own kind of magic: soft lights, familiar songs that ignite memories, the feeling of something special about these days. But it can also be heavy, busy, expensive and emotional.A month where our hearts try to keep up with our calendars… and often, we feel like we fall behind. So this year, I invite…

There is a very beautiful quote I refer to when I am struggling; it’s by Marianne Williamson and she says:  “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am…

We’ve made it to the end of September. September is Suicide Awareness Month, and I have seen so many amazing posts—people being brave, sharing their journeys, their paths, and their pain. But there’s one message I keep seeing that hits me hard: “If you’re struggling, reach out.” Let me explain. No one signs up for…
