about

Planning is good. Organization is helpful. But life is often random. Surprising turns take us down roads of great adventure. One thing leads to another...a willingness to take risks mixed with unexpected opportunities brings us to places we never imagined. A whisper inside invites us to improvise new melodies.

As you listen we hope you will be reminded of the spontaneous possibilities of life––that your eyes would open up to the unexpected gifts all around you. Who knows? Your life might be on the verge of something incredible right now.
