As I launch into planning a new “season,” if you will, of withHEART, I want to hear the thoughts of those who make this page and youtube channel possible– you.  I know I’ve said it before and it can sound a bit cliche, but I am truly so grateful for each of you who click, […]

Lately I’ve been feeling a little run down– torn in too many directions.  Balance is constantly a battle for me.  Between raising Ruby, making sure she is my focus during the day, blogging, shooting and producing videos, renovating, following other opportunities and Jon working like mad basically since November, I find little time for simple […]

We all face challenges– trials and hardships that rock us to our core.  Few people have dealt with more health challenges than a friend I met several years ago while running, Dov Siporin.  And even fewer can go through all he does every day, and still exude pure love, positivity, and inspiration.  You can’t meet […]
