Disconnect to Reconnect. Navigating life and switching gears on our personal roads. My channel is intended to share some of my journey with you and my current rural life figuring it out as I go. Do you ever say if "If I could, I would..."? That phrase occupied my mind for many years until I finally listened. I am now a certified Forest Therapy guide and figuring out how to live life closer to nature in rural Tennessee. I used to be a graphic design professor (more than 2 decades) and walked away from the hamster wheel in a toxic work place to pursue this unpaved path.

I'm here to encourage you to listen to your inner child, make that break to move forward, figure out how to bring your passions off the back burner, and slow down with nature immersion. Sometimes we just need a short break, a dose of joy or calm in our days. I'm also sharing my love of travel especially to Japan. Highlights here are cats and donkeys.

Sometimes we need a cheerleader, a guide, and /or a coach. That's me!
