Welcome to My Journey

My name is Tom, and this website exists in loving memory of my wife, Grace.

Grace was my wife, my best friend, and my business partner. She changed my life in more ways than I could ever describe. When I lost her, I felt like I lost myself, too.

For years, I wasn’t really living. I was just surviving. I stopped taking care of myself. I stopped exercising. I ate whatever was easiest, and I spent far too much time sitting in my recliner while the rest of the world moved on without me.

I always wanted to build this website for Grace. In fact, years ago, I even bought a camera to begin telling her story. But I couldn’t. Grief had taken more from me than I realized.

Then, one day, I made a decision. This website was going to exist. Not because I was finished grieving, but because Grace deserved to be remembered.

That single decision changed something deep inside me. It gave me a purpose again. A reason to get up. A reason to learn. Suddenly, I had a reason to cook healthier meals, exercise, create videos, organize decades of photographs, and keep moving forward.

Everything you’ll find here is a piece of that journey.

What You'll Find Here

As I work to rebuild my life, I'm sharing the things that are helping me heal. I hope they might help you, too. Explore the site for:

• Recipes & Healthy Cooking: Fueling the body to help heal the mind.

• Photography & Videos: Capturing the beauty in everyday life, right outside the front door.

• Product Reviews & Lessons: Honest thoughts on the tools and routines helping me move forward.

Most of all, I hope you’ll come to know Grace. Not because she was famous, but because she was a wonderful, brilliant woman who deserves to be remembered.

If something you find here helps you take even one step toward a healthier, more hopeful life, then this website has fulfilled its purpose.

Thank you for visiting. And thank you for allowing me to introduce you to Grace.
