Thoughts on using "and" instead of "but"
Lately, I've been realizing how much isolation has made me overthink. I've started replacing “but” with “and” in my thoughts, like “I am happy and struggling.” This shift feels empowering and helps me connect better with others. It inspires me to embrace life’s complexities instead of simplifying them.

Recently, I received heartfelt messages from readers of my art journal, The Hospice Doctor’s Widow: A Journal. One caregiver shared how my book inspired her to connect with her partner emotionally. I’m excited to announce a virtual program this Saturday with the Six Bridges Book Festival to discuss the book and art journaling!
