ABOUT ME

Welcome!

Hi, my name is Teresa, nice to meet you!
 
Like you, I wear a lot of hats: wife, mom, dog/cat mom, teacher, photographer, spiritual director, daughter, sister, aunt.

I hope this site helps you find some inspiration and learn a bit of what it is like to try and live an Ignatian lifestyle in today’s busy world.

I’m also beginning my journey as a spiritual director, so if you are looking for someone to accompany you on your faith journey, reach out! I can connect you with Ignatius House, where I am getting my training.

I hope this page offers you some hope that you are not alone in your question to improve yourself and your faith life!

FIND BALANCE IN YOUR EVERYDAY

I’m looking for that, too! Hopefully, I can help you from what I am learning.

Read my blog

I would love for you to read what I’m writing! I have a few books that I am writing, too, so more info on that will be shared here when they are ready.

    One of the most significant changes in me from my five-day silent retreat is the new awareness I have about my use of technology and its affect on my brain and body.  While I know I should have just turned my phone off completely, I didn’t do that. I think…
