Kim is a wise, sassy, life-embracing human who has an incredible story to tell of coming THROUGH stage-3 metastatic breast cancer. Her journey is not just about the fight against cancer, but what was required to heal her life in multiple layers. Kim shares her fiercely won wisdom on the importance of community, what it means to be your own best advocate, when to ask questions and when to rest.

I am partnering up with our amazing NCW Libraries to bring a 3-session Wellness Series! Online & Free🥳

✨ A fresh start for 2026 ✨

As we welcome the new year, it’s a perfect time to pause, reset, and gently turn our attention inward. We’re excited to partner with Meditate Wenatchee on a Reboot & Refresh Mindfulness Series designed to help you begin the year with intention and care.

Through mindfulness, we’ll practice turning our attention inward—without judgment—to meet the ever-changing state of our bodies, minds, and emotions. Together, we’ll cultivate self-awareness and mental focus to help you pause in daily life, get curious, allow what is, and care for the whole of you and your life.

🧘‍♀️ Virtual Series Dates:
• Jan 20 – Pause & Connect
• Jan 27 – Practice Curiosity
• Feb 3 – Allow & Care

All sessions are virtual, making it easy to join from wherever you are. Whether mindfulness is brand new to you or a familiar practice, this series offers a supportive space to start the year grounded and refreshed.

🌱 Join us and begin 2026 with intention.

Ep-11 "Cultivando Mis Raíces - Cultivating My Roots" of Wenatchee Valley's, "Live Well. Be Wise" podcast! Meet Briseldy Hernandez Ramos and hear about how growing up Latina in a white world had her constantly wondering what it meant to belong.

Facing the challenges of growing up in a migrant farm-working family, moving from school to school, in environments of racial bias and prejudice, she struggled to see herself in the spaces she found herself in. After years using heavy cosmetics to lighten her dark skin she says, “I had to learn what it was to really be me.”

Be inspired by this young woman. She models with grace and vulnerability, how we can all choose to grow through hardship on purpose. She plans to fight for social, racial and economic justice.

Ep-10 "We Will Know a Tree by its Fruits" of Wenatchee Valley's, "Live Well. Be Wise" podcast! Meet Zoe Jaspers and hear about how he walked into the Christian faith and how it became the safe and supportive community that allowed him to explore his faithful journey across gender!

LISTEN NOW: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2261618/episodes/18254164

If there is someone out there who can humbly be in service to connecting the people inside the trans experience and those outside of it--it is Zoe Jaspers. With curiosity and vulnerability Zoe teaches us how to have hard conversations when someone appears to be different than us.

Zoe walks us through multiple pathways to understanding: in terms of Christian scripture and theology, as well as simply through his lived experience. He unpacks concepts around co-creation, resurrection, “knowing a tree by its fruits,” and more

Please join us friends and neighbors, as we cross this bridge of understanding with compassion and curiosity —together. You don't want to miss meeting this neighbor🤩💙

What a beautiful offering for our community! Thank you☺️

It’s been an intention of mine since I lived in Ohio and attended my first Death Cafe to launch one here in Wenatchee. Along with the synchronicity of fellow kindred spirits, it’s finally happening ☠️🙏🏼🖤

The first Death Cafe Wenatchee will be on Wednesday, November 5th from 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm at the Vet’s Hall in downtown Wenatchee.

Death Cafe’s are a world-wide movement to create intentional gatherings in which to discuss all things death and dying. It is not a support group nor a therapy group. It is a peer-to-peer gathering to talk about the common experience we will all have at some point - the death of our own self and/or the death of others in our lives.

If you or someone you know might benefit from being in a safe, supportive environment and get something (many things??) off your chest about death and dying or just listen to others, please join us.

All are welcome.
