Laughter and Libations
Laughter and Libations is about the intentional pursuit of joy. I'm challenging myself to be courageous and share my stories as I shake, stir, strain, steep, brew, and mix up my favorite libations and laugh my way into a more joyful life. I’ll share experiences with a focus on self-care and self-discovery. Come join me on this journey.

Spring is the perfect time to let go of things you don't need anymore. What are you ready to let go of right now? Is it something tangible or intangible? Will you do it quickly or will you need a lengthy process?
I decided to focus on something easy, and I reached out for a little help from mom. I thought I was ready. I wasn't! Who knew that decluttering with mom would be so brutal, funny, and effective?
If you love gin, you're in luck. You must try this month's libation!

- Laughing Matters features the end-of-the-month highlights and usually includes four segments: celebrations, libation of the month, rants, and questions and answers.
- Celebrations are about intentionally forming a habit of noticing and acknowledging the good within and around you.
- Libation of the month is based on whatever I fancy or feel inspired by at the time. I share step-by-step instructions and you can mix right along with me.
- Rants or stories are about anything I find funny and want to share.
- Ask me a question. It might be featured in a future episode.
