Stories From the Heart

From the Latin "Coeur"

Cor, meaning heart, is the root of courage. From the Latin “Coeur” will continue as a blog complemented by Stories From the Heart: small writings delivered right to your inbox, like a letter from me to you.

Connection and Inspiration

A breath of fresh air in a world of toxic online spaces. Stories From the Heart never distorts with a filter.  Empower and connect through vulnerably real stories about mental health, stigma, and the trenches of life.

"Stained Glass" Fiction

Fiction reveals truths of the human condition through the perspective of story, like a stained glass window, letting light through in its own unique patterns and colors. Stories From the Heart includes original short fiction delivered quarterly.

In Stories From the Heart, delivered every other Tuesday, I share resources, original work, and inspiration focused on mental wellness and connection. My original work may be fictional, but it reveals truths of the human condition through the perspective of story, like a stained glass window, letting light through in its own unique patterns and colors.
