Following each calamity, we get caught in a tumultuous wave of emotions: denial, anger, bargaining, melancholy, and isolation, adding to our baggage before finally accepting the new reality. Only to wind up anchored in a sea of stagnation. But it’s time to unpack, unmoor and cast off on a new adventure.

So, join me on the Calamity Express for a sneak peek at my too many madcap misadventures and how I find humor in each adversity. If I can do it, you can too!!!

How do I remain resilient? I mix triple shots of gratitude and a chaser of laughter to help Leap Outta Loss, bounce back into life, and celebrate with a toast to the end of every disaster.
