My life was quite difficult until age thirty. At that time I learned about self-talk or the internal dialogue people have with themselves.  I realized that most of the silent words that I said about myself and the world were negative. Through monitoring and changing these words my life turned completely around.  The world became joyful and magical and has been ever since.

​

My Passion is that children learn about positive self-talk at an early age.  The book Happy Thoughts does just that. It introduces young people to the power of positive words.

 

I have a Master's Degree in Counseling from Idaho State University.  I currently enjoy living in the Lake of the Ozarks area in Missouri, USA.
