Small-town Midwestern girl checking in.

I’ve come to believe that travel is more than movement through space—it’s an invitation for the soul to stretch. When we step beyond the familiar, we meet parts of ourselves that could only awaken elsewhere. New places carry new energy, new rhythms, and new ways of seeing, and each experience gently loosens the edges of who we thought we were.

👉 Traveling reminds us that the world is vast, interconnected, and alive with wisdom far beyond our own lived experience.

Staying in one place for a lifetime can offer comfort, roots, and belonging. Yet when staying becomes a way to avoid change, uncertainty, or inner growth, the spirit can grow quiet. The soul longs for expansion, and without new experiences to reflect ourselves back to us, our understanding of life can remain narrow.

Growth is rarely loud—it often arrives as a soft calling to explore, to question, and to open. When we answer that call, whether through travel or other forms of exploration, we allow ourselves to evolve, deepen, and remember how vast we truly are.

You are invited to a in-person guided meditation for grief and angelic connection, held in a sacred, supportive space and accompanied by live harp.

These offerings are a heartfelt collaboration with Ruth, a music-thanatologist working with hospice patients at Froedtert, whose background in social work brings deep compassion and reverence to this work.

Together, we’ve created a journey that honors grief as a spiritual experience—one that connects us to love beyond loss.

Through gentle guided meditation and the angelic resonance of harp, we invite you to connect with divine presence and the angelic support available to you in your own life.

Grief touches every human heart. You don’t have to carry it alone.
✨ Come be held in sound
✨ Come be supported in community
✨ Come open to angelic connection and healing

Space is limited. Reserve your spot now and join us in these sacred gatherings.

A Sacred Grief Journey for Life’s Losses Guided by Angelic Meditations and Harp Loss is an inescapable part of being alive. Grief—our natural response to loss—can quietly shift us onto a life path different from the one we anticipated or desired. It may arise through the death of a loved one, ...

I remember walking into Menards during one of the darkest seasons of my life.
I was supposed to be there for supplies—for the people who were coming to my house, for a life I was somehow still expected to keep moving.

Why Menards? I honestly couldn’t tell you. Maybe Anthony sent me, he had wanted to work there and the address is 6800….
Maybe I was just following directions because thinking for myself felt impossible.

I remember standing there, looking at all these people casually moving through their day.

Shopping. Laughing. Existing.

And all I could think was:
How can they just go on like nothing happened?
Don’t they know my world just ended?
Can’t they feel the darkness pressing in?

It felt like betrayal—not by a person, but by the world itself. Like life had the audacity to keep going when mine had shattered.

I was overwhelmed. I don’t think I accomplished a single thing I went there for. But what I did gain was something unexpected: a core memory in this grief journey.

One I can return to easily.
One that reminds me how isolating grief can feel.
One that holds the truth that sometimes the world keeps spinning while your soul is barely breathing.

And maybe that’s part of the journey—learning how to exist in a world that doesn’t pause, while honoring the depth of what you’ve lost.

Grief changes how you see everything.
And some moments mark you forever.

Learning to live with all of this is a monumental accomplishment, even when it feels like failure or betrayal. You are doing it. And that is all that matters.

Sending love and peace and warmth 🫶🏻 Kate

Grief touches us at the deepest level of our being. It reshapes us—cell by cell, breath by breath. It shifts our mindset, our energy, and the way we give and receive love. Because of this, it’s natural that our relationships change too.
And that is not something to fear. There is a quiet divinity in the timing of it all—the people who come into our lives, the ones who leave, and the connections that transform. The relationship that once defined you may no longer look the same. It may evolve into something new, or it may gently fall away. Either way, it carries meaning.
What I know to be true is this: it is okay that nothing is the same anymore. Even the relationships that once shaped your identity are allowed to shift. In that shifting, there is wisdom, alignment, and a deeper invitation to become who you are now.
Sending love for the weekend. Stay warm. Stay blessed.

Healing isn’t about fixing everything at once.
It’s about letting the feelings come,
giving them space to move through you,
and trusting that release creates room for peace.

Just like water finds its way forward,
so do you — when you stop fighting the current
and start honoring what you feel.

When we make a mistake and become aware of it, several things unfold almost instantly.

First, the body responds before the mind has time to interpret what happened. A surge of emotion arises as neurotransmitters activate and chemicals like dopamine move through the brain. This happens in fractions of a second—sometimes even before the mistake fully registers in conscious awareness. The body is fast. The science is fascinating.

This reaction isn’t a flaw; it’s purposeful. In humans, this physiological response creates the conditions for reflection and change if our mindset is grounded in neutrality or flow. When we’re able to stay present, the signal becomes information. When we’re not, that same surge of emotion can pull us into an ego response—defensiveness, shame, or self-attack.

What follows depends on our mindset. From a regulated, mindful place, we may respond with accountability, curiosity, learning, and correction. From a dysregulated place, the response may look like denial, frustration, anger, guilt, or a sense of loss.

Mindfulness allows us to pause and see mistakes not as personal failures, but as opportunities our human nature offers us to do better next time. When we shift attention from self-judgment to understanding, we create space for growth—both individually and collectively.

Mistakes are not life sentences of shame. They were never meant to be. Moving beyond that belief is part of our evolution as people and as a society.

So we practice forgiveness—of ourselves, and of those who have caused harm.

That last idea probably sounds familiar.
