My Story

In 2014, I was at a crossroads. I was recently divorced, with 3 children in college, and 1 still with me, my daughter Mayzie, who was 8 years old. I had left my 25 year career in running a special events company, and was ready to focus on
"What's Next".

What's next for me? What do I want to do? What is my Purpose? What do I want my Legacy to be? What mark do I want to leave on the world? How can I be of service?

I decided that it would be wonderful to take that journey of reflection and self-discovery someplace different. Different people, different language, different culture -- to have a completely immersive cultural experience -- and figure some things out!

And so I did! In a little town south of Barcelona, called Sitges.

Mayzie and I moved there together. We didn't know a single soul. And we explored, and we figured out how to take the train, and which ATM gave the best exchange rate, and which spot had the best ice cream ... and where all the best coffee shops were!

We made friends with the guy who sold fruit in the shop in town. We made friends with the waitress at our favorite pizza place. We bought a little grocery cart -- because we had no car! And had to carry all our groceries home. We found the local farmer's market, with fresh olives and homemade cheeses!

And we traveled! A fabulous weekend in Belgium! Valencia! Madrid! Amsterdam! Paris!

And I want to help other women -- women who are at that crossroads -- trying to figure out “What's Next” -- have that same rich, beautiful and exciting experience!
Because this was one of the BEST things I ever did in my life.
