One of the things I love most about children is how naturally they believe in possibility.
They rarely begin with
“What if I can’t?”
More often, they start with
“What if I could?”
Somewhere along the way, many of us learn hesitation, doubt, and overthinking.
Perhaps courage is not something we acquire —
but something we remember.

Although I Can Do It Afraid is written as a children’s story, it was never meant only for children.
Over time, I’ve shared this story with high school students, women rebuilding their lives, individuals in recovery, and even seniors.
The conversations are always different — yet the theme somehow remains the same.
Fear, courage, and the quiet question of what we believe is possible for ourselves are not bound by age.
Growth takes courage.
Change is scary.
There is a butterfly in all of us.
And the voice you choose matters.

One of the most magical parts of my book, I Can Do It Afraid, is that the butterfly’s journey is real.
Butterflies really do travel up to 3,000 miles from Canada to reach Mexico.
But the butterfly in my story has one very human trait — she can think.
And sometimes, our thoughts are the very things that tell us something is impossible.
Nature does not doubt. Humans often do.

People often ask what inspired my books. The truth is, it began during one of the hardest seasons of my life.

Napoleon Hill once wrote, “Every adversity, every heartache, every failure carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit.”

Loss has a way of reshaping how we see everything.

I didn’t fully understand those words until 2017, when my youngest brother passed away after struggling with his mental health.

In the quiet that followed, I found myself asking deeper questions about grief, fear, and the stories we tell ourselves.

Which inner voices are we choosing to believe?

Those reflections became the foundation of my children’s books, What If You Could? and my upcoming release, I Can Do It Afraid.

At the heart of both stories is something we all experience — the voice of fear that holds us back, and the quieter voice that invites courage and resilience.

Courage doesn’t mean we aren’t afraid.
It means we move forward anyway.

I Can Do It Afraid will be released in mid-April.

Today feels like the perfect day to share this. 🤍
I’m so excited to reveal the cover for my upcoming book, I Can Do It Afraid, releasing in April, 2026.

This story was shaped through years of coaching, witnessing moments when someone stands at the edge of change and that inner voice grows loud. It’s rooted in one simple truth: courage isn’t the absence of fear—it’s moving forward with it.

I am most grateful to Creative Saskatchewan and Nickels Worth Publishing (YNWP) for supporting this dream. 🦋

The caterpillar enters the chrysalis without a plan.
It doesn’t strategize becoming a butterfly.
Much of what it once was dissolves.
It rests.
It waits.
Spiritual growth often happens this way too — not through effort or self-improvement, but through surrender.

I’ve been working on a story for quite some time — one that keeps finding its way into conversations with educators, therapists, and caregivers.

At its core, it’s a story about courage, fear, and learning to trust yourself.

Not in a motivational sense — but in a very human one.

It explores what happens when we’re asked to move forward without certainty.
When growth feels uncomfortable.
When the next step isn’t clear, but staying still no longer feels right.

What’s surprised me most is how naturally this story aligns with the work so many of you do — supporting emotional resilience, normalizing fear, and helping people move through uncertainty with compassion.

I’ll be sharing more as it continues to take shape.

Lately I’ve been thinking about how often we wait to feel “ready” before we move forward.

Ready enough.
Brave enough.
Certain enough.

But the truth is, most meaningful things in life don’t begin with confidence.
They begin with a quiet knowing — and a lot of uncertainty.

That’s what my upcoming story explores.

It’s about learning to trust yourself even when the path isn’t clear.
About taking the next step without needing the whole plan.

And maybe most of all, it’s about remembering that courage doesn’t mean the absence of fear…
it means choosing to move anyway.

This story has been with me for a long time.
And it’s slowly, gently finding its way into the world....More soon.

A story I’ve been working on for some time…

It’s a story about courage, fear, and learning to trust yourself.
About what it means to listen when something inside you says, “It’s time,” even when you don’t know what comes next.

At its heart, it follows a monarch butterfly who feels called to begin a journey she’s never taken before — without certainty, without a map, and without knowing how far she’ll have to go.

And in that way, it’s really a story about us.

About moving forward while still afraid.
About learning that fear doesn’t mean stop — it often means growth.
About trusting the quiet inner voice that keeps nudging us toward change.

This is a story that’s been with me for a long time, and it’s finally beginning to make its way into the world. More soon. 🦋

I’ve been spending time by the ocean almost daily.
Not looking for answers.
Not trying to work anything out.

Just being there.
And I realized something simple.

The ocean doesn’t need to teach a lesson.
It can just be the place where the realization happens.

That’s starting to feel true of courage, too.

Doing it afraid isn’t about pushing through or figuring everything out.
It’s about staying present long enough to notice what’s actually true.

Sometimes clarity comes from movement.
Sometimes it comes from stillness.

Both ask for trust.

I noticed something this week.

I was waiting for clarity —
the kind that usually comes with a plan, a next step, a sense of certainty.

And when it didn’t arrive, I felt that familiar urge to push.

But instead, I relaxed.

Nothing dramatic happened.
No lightning bolt.

But something softened.

And I realized:
sometimes listening doesn’t give you an answer —
it gives you permission to stop forcing one.

I’m learning that this, too, is courage.
Not the kind that charges forward,
but the kind that trusts what’s quietly unfolding.
