Our Amazing Brains!
I spend a lot of time in awe and amazement thinking about our amazing human body: the physical component of our human body, and the emotional and spiritual side. I love the body so much I earned my B.S. in nutrition and Ph.D. in molecular biology so I could understand it better. What [...]

Random Acts of Kick Arse: Gratitude
This month flowed with gratitude.
And when I say flowed, I mean like Niagara Falls!
Sami’s awesome RAOKA leadership has resulted in something special for me—almost like a cosmic shift. I have noticed repeatedly in my world that if one looks for something, one will find it.

I’ve built this blog slowly, earnestly, and with my best intentions.
My goals for my blog are few:
1) A vehicle to connect with others

As you all know, I host a weekend series here at Jane Be Nimble called Front Porch with a focus on people’s stories (spanning comedy to tragedy)—to steep us in the human experience. Many of life’s best stories are told on front porches, in break rooms, and in back yards; that’s what [...]

Front Porch: A New Series at Jane Be Nimble

Find a Passion for Writing
OK, I know, I am preaching to the choir. I get the feeling that most of the visitors to Jane Be Nimble are fellow bloggers, so if you are, you’re writing often. But, hey, if you’re not a fellow blogger, email me to say hello or comment here, I’d love to meet you, and why [...]
Writing Right
I love to write. I love to read. I love the paragraph that makes me pause and compels me to read it again, letting it wash over me while its tone and rhythm captivate me. The structure of the paragraph reminds me of open-water swimming in the Pacific (my favorite spot is shown above). You [...]
