The Power of Inner Sparkle

Virginia Taft’s The Beauty in Catastrophe

Virgina adds her voice to this inspiring anthology and international best seller with her story of The Beauty in Catastrophe. In this deeply moving essay, Virginia Taft takes us through heartbreak, loss, and the quiet strength it takes to begin again. From the unraveling of love to the journey of reclaiming her voice, her story is one of courage, resilience, and the fierce power of a woman choosing herself.

It’s a reminder that even in the darkest moments, beauty can still be found—and we can still choose to keep writing the story of our lives.

The Memory Box Journey

Capturing a Life Story

We all have people that profoundly affected our lives. Sometimes it’s a parent or friend; maybe it’s sibling or mentor. This memoir is about a promise kept and a tribute to a special person. It is a travelogue of a trip to the past, inspired reflections and self-discovery – designed to share hope and motivate your own memory legacy.

“Memories are important . . .  The book stimulated my memories. It was fun, entertaining and informational.”

A Little bit of Blue

Humor, Heart & Hope in the Journey of Aging

These shared stories acknowledge the challenges of aging and caregiving, but also the humor, insights and the path to finding strength, peace and joy in the process. 

 “Mom would look at a flat, gray sky and say excitedly “I see a little bit of blue!” Sometimes cynical, I would respond “It’s just a lighter shade of gray.”  However, optimism served her well and was a gift she shared with others.  Caregiving is an honor, yet it can be challenging, frustrating and exhausting. It can also be a time of beauty. I want caregivers to know they’re not alone.”

Launching in Fall 2025!

The clouds today 

Are flat and gray.

Are they here to stay?

Will it always be this way?

Beyond that deep, dark , foreboding hue

Clear skies beckon you

Yes! Yes!

I see it!

A little bit

Of blue.
