My Journey from Writer to Editor and Podcaster

With the publication that gave me purpose.

Once I discovered my purpose, my life took off. However, finding my purpose took decades. But when I stepped on the path, I hit the ground running, not with my feet but with my fingers.

I haven’t looked back!

My purpose manifested in three ways: I became a Ninja Writer, creator and editor of Middle-Pause publication, and the host of the podcast STOMP! (Stronger Together On Middle-Pause). You may be confused, so let me begin with the beginning.

Attention

I’ve known forever I had a purpose. But what, when, where, and how to fulfill my purpose escaped me. I searched for it but if you're like me; life got in the way.

You know, family, work, relationships, all the stuff that stood in my path. My time and talents were needed elsewhere. However, more often, I was getting in my own way.

The event that got my attention, though, was a health crisis that put me flat on my back. I was bedridden at fifty-five years old from an advanced case of crippling osteoarthritis and sciatica.

Chronic pain parked on my doorstep and gained entry more times than I care to remember.
