ABOUT ME

Hi there — I’m Cynthia.

I’m a Gen X writer and former journalist. Cinderella had a fairy godmother. I write. Writing is my superpower.

It took me a long time to realize that I didn’t choose writing — it chose me. Writing is how I process life, gain clarity, find comfort, and contribute a shred of good to the world. A book will happen at some point, and you can read more about my writing journey here.

Over the past few years I’ve been navigating a major life transition and unprecedented personal challenges, including navigating care and support for an elderly mother with vascular dementia. It’s been painful, but the best outcome so far is that I restarted my blog and, at the end of 2024, I completed my bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts with an emphasis in writing and communication. Right now I am also working on getting my real estate license.

I’m not big on niches — at least not right now. If one emerges organically, I’ll run with it. For now, I share reflections on truth, beauty, healthy(ish) living, transitioning into a new season, simplifying, clarifying values, and focusing on what works. In this space, I write from the heart with minimal overthinking or editing — typos and imperfect syntax included at no extra charge.

Work With Me

If you like what you’ve seen and read here, feel free to reach out to see if working together would be mutually enjoyable and beneficial. I’m open to considering the right opportunities.

I do my best to live authentically, proactively, and joyfully — and I bring that same intentionality to the work I do with others.
