When I first saw this post, I was filled with such pride that my writing was really being read and LIKED by fellow writers. My heart was so full. A much needed reminder for me to get back to it.

Brazen She

It’s funny how putting yourself out there is a great way to meet people.

Along my journey at Brazen She I have met some really cool people. I want to give back to this great community.

Here are my top 5 favorite woman bloggers who I’ve met during my time here. They are a diverse group of voices each of whom enriches the world using her unique perspective. These ladies are brazenly themselves.

Daily Musings 102 “thoughtfulness”

Posted on by 12raisins

A dear friend who I don’t think I’ve seen all year long just dropped off a Christmas gift for me. In the gift was a handwritten note that warmed my heart. Despite the chaos of the year, thoughtful actions and gestures keep making their way to me. On this 3rd last day of 2020 I give thanks for thoughtful gifts. I’ve received all year long and I’m grateful.
