Dear Soul Tender,

Welcome! I’m so glad you are here.

This newsletter is all about being whole-in-soul, together. Here we’ll explore restorative & heart centered (re)parenting, loving out loud, and a lovely assortment of life-changing topics related to motherhood, caregiving, pain, identity, and faith. Every conversation is supportive of how we might fully occupy love, regardless of circumstance.

It is my belief that it is in this space we might just find peace.

Love as place

What place is this
we finally occupy
that love always
does exist

I ask my body this
my life
feel it answer
love

At the end of every day I want to know that I have landed in love over and over again. Find that love is where my feet met the Earth. Let it be where I sew roots.

How about you?

I’ll be honest with you. My life is what I call complicated. I’m a disability-adjacent woman who lives with multiple complex disease processes in her precious bod; I’m a student contemplative spirituality; and, I’m the parent of a child with significant mental health needs. (I’ll throw in the mix that I have a lengthy trauma history: relational, medical, religious, etc.) I’m human. It would be easy to get stuck. Yet right here, I have grown; my compassion for all of us expanding tenfold daily. It continues to expand. When we learn to love ourselves - we learn to love the world better, too. I’m sure of it.

This is where I want to meet you.

Because it’s a long road coming home to ourselves, darling soul.

(And, I still believe we can.)

About me

I’m Jennifer - author of Bliss & Blue, memoist, soulful companion for caregivers in birth work, motherhood, parenting and pastoral care; and an authority on both occupying & honoring our complex bodies, minds and lives with compassion & love.

As a writer, I get to speak life into companions and caregivers of all kinds. If I might say so, our evolution is this most beautiful thing I’ve witnessed to date. The way we keep showing up for ourselves and the world, an act of good and God. With personal experience of the chaos and complexity to exist throughout the caregiving years, my ongoing work is that humanity knows peace. The kind that begins within and echoes throughout generations to come.

We are better together, beloved.

With you as we manifest Heaven here.

I love you, I love you, I love you,

J. 🌻
