Creating to connect  

Welcome! I’m so glad you stopped by.

​Writing and painting make me happy. What makes me even happier is sharing them with others—because connecting with people is what I care about most.

That said, nothing is more devastating than when a cherished relationship comes to an end. Losing both my parents a few years ago meant not only the end of my relationship with them, but the end of status quo in our family dynamic in ways I'm still working to understand.

If you're walking through your parents' later years, know that you're not alone. I am currently writing a book designed to support hurting hearts and lighten the burden of relational regret during their parents' last years.  Message me if you're in that season or supporting someone who is and I'll make sure to send you resources to help.  

Please subscribe to my newsletter.  As a thank you, I'll mail you a photocard of one of my paintings: just put your physical address in the message box. (U.S. residents only.)  You can also connect with me via email, Facebook or Instagram.

Everything is better shared. Sending my love to you, ​

Leslie
