Hello

Someone once told me: “Stacy, one thing you do beautifully is that you’re not afraid to step into the yuck of life.”

I never expected my life to be filled with so much yuck. But the yuck was hand-delivered to us nearly 10 years ago via my husband's diagnosis and my choices were clear: run from it (denial), stuff it (unhealthy coping) or step into it and try to navigate it as best as I could. So this little corner of the web is where I'm trying to do exactly that. I'm stepping into the yuck, sharing what I'm learning along the way and offering a bit of solace that even on the messiest and most gut-wrenching of days, grace can be found.

When I'm not navigating life with a diagnosis and my role as a caregiver, I spend my time raising three growing kids, collaborating with other creatives on a marketing team, baking cookies and debating if I can sneak in just a few minutes of reading from the tall stack of books calling my name.
