-You are a dream machine. So many good ideas, so little time. This is a place to name and sort all your great ideas.
-You wish you were a better communicator. Good communication is something we learn, not something we are born with. Start by communicating better with yourself.
-You find yourself thinking about the same things over and over. Learn how to reflect and learn from your past to build a better future.
Spaghetti on the Wall is a journal designed for you.

As a therapist, I have done tons of training in human development. Kristan stands out for her genuine empathy and interest in all that makes you who you are. Above all, she is witty, just laugh out loud funny. She lights up the room.

See a penny, pick it up. The rest of the day you’ll have good luck. I always pick up money. Just yesterday, I stopped traffic struggling with my short fingernails to grab the shiny penny off the pavement. I found two quarters on the sidewalk the...
The past couple of weeks I didn’t write. Okay, that is not completely true. I would sit down and type out a few sentences then I would abandon the computer full of self-doubt and find my way back to one of the three books I am reading. I find...
Jenny grabs my hand and doesn’t let go. We end up walking and talking, holding hands. The first time she held my hand, it was a surprise. We didn’t really know each other well. Our friendship began as social acquaintances. We met through a mutually...
