Thank you Rita for being on the People On Dating Podcast.
I have written Canyons & Fireworks which details my life long journey of healing from an extreme avoidant attachment style.
Through encounters with God, faith, family, Christian community, reading books, and years of counseling I have learned to truly open up and enjoy loving relationships. From this place of healing and love I have been able to enjoy the abundant life of the Bible.
In Canyons & Fireworks, I am honest about the cause, confusion, victories, setbacks, and time full recovery takes.
Although I am not a doctor, my goal is to help others identify and tear down the walls that block love so that true intimacy, identity, and purpose can flourish.
I am happily married to my best friend, Rob, and I love being a stepmom. We live in a suburb of Charlotte, NC where we enjoy the outdoors together. I like to bike ride at my local parks and paint on my back patio.
