For the times they are a-changin'. "
I'm an open book. I don't like to cover up times of struggle, sacrifice or celebration. This thing called life is a long, long road - with curves and unexpected cliffs that we all must face. I have chosen to face the latest hurdle with integrity, transparency and love. The past few months have undergone many changes, personally and professionally, and I've decided MY 2013 is a year of renewal and rebirth. Figgy and I have moved to a lovely home near a vast lake, JVP Media is as strong as ever with the opportunity to work on many high-profile fashion & lifestyle accounts (thanks to Beverly Hills-based PR firm, P3R!) and the outpouring of love and friendship encompassing my life never ceases to amaze me.
Thank you for continuing to follow my journey.

This past weekend, I went through a deeply personal and transformative three day period. I am inspired by myself and the other women who shared the experience with me. It brings a lot of clarity to my life. Below is a quote that sums up, for me, a greater purpose. A big thank you to Whitney, Beroz and the 11 other enlightened spirits that showed tremendous strength and resiliency among strangers.
