I am a Midwest born and raised small town gal, Enneagram 2w1, with a hunger to always be learning & growing. Lover of books, avid consumer of audiobooks & podcasts. I adore slow mornings on the front porch with a warm drink in my hand. I haven't met a flower I don't like, and in the warm months you are likely to find me in my flower beds dreaming about what flowers to add next {and maybe pulling a weed or two}.
