about

I am 48 years old (yes that's old compared to some of you).


I have worked in nursing and/or healthcare management positions for 24 years. Primarily OB, Neonatal, Mental Health, Occupational Health and Geriatrics. In Jan 2008 I started my own business to board horses and do equine/human education. I am also a certified dog trainer.


I've been around the block so to speak and seem to be always helping others. I've been told that the reason people seek me out for advice is that I am approachable and caring. But on the same token even though I consider the person's feelings. I tell it like I see it. I've dealt with people in trouble with the law, dysfunctional families such as those with abuse & marriage problems. Not to mention problems with employees and employers.


I don't ever claim to know it all, and always keep an open mind.

what are 3 ways to cope with stress?
help is appreciated

Well, I have two ways that have always worked for me. The first one is to decorate a shoe box, called a "worry box" write down everything you are stressing about, put the paper in the box, and you have just sealed all your worries away. The second way is to find a little rock--a stone with one flat surface, keep the rock in your pocket. When you feel stressed, take the rock out and rub it with your thumb and think of the things that stress you. Then put the rock back in your pocket. This rock is called a "worry stone" Once it's in your pocket, think of something else and remember your worries have been put away!
