Hoping to make a difference
A while back, when I was griping about writing too many articles that I just wasn’t fully invested in, someone told me something that truly resonated with me. She said “write about the things you’re passionate about.”
Ever since I listened to that sage advice the work I’ve been doing has been so much more gratifying.
With that said, I thought I’d do a recap/summary of sorts of just those articles I’m referring to.
I’ve loved writing them because they are heartwarming human interest stories that I’m hoping have made a difference to better someone’s life or organization in some way.
Here they are:

Naked Angels cold reading series:
Ok ok, I’ll admit, that last one about Naked Angels I snuck in because I wanted to give them publicity. I LOVE being part of that program, it’s allowed me to flex whatever acting muscles I think I might have. And they’re just so supportive and fun!
I wanted to share these because I’m so proud of them and they remind me that it was smart to listen to that advice, thanks Amber!
