About this site

Welcome to Steps, Stones, and Soul, a space where movement meets meaning, and soulful living is both the path and the destination.

This is place for seekers, reflectors, and those at the threshold of change.

This is a place for those navigating transitions, seeking depth, or simply feeling the call to evolve not through massive upheaval, but through small, intentional moves. Here, I explore the layered terrain of psychology, spirituality, wisdom, aging, intuition, and purpose, using metaphors, stories, and pictures to illuminate the journey; along with  practical suggestions for moving forward on your journey.

  • Steps represent the actions we take, often uncertain, often imperfect, that keep us moving forward.
  • Stones are the lessons, symbols, and truths we collect and carry along the way; grounding us, guiding us, sometimes challenging us.
  • Soul is the thread that connects it all. The deep-self that whispers when we’re still enough to listen. The evolving self that is becoming with each choice and move we make inside ourselves and in our world.

What you’ll find here are reflections, trail notes, and wisdom-infused essays on how we grow, how we age well, and how we stay aligned with what matters most, even when the trail disappears for a while.

Movement is life’s invitation to engage and evolve.

This site is less about arriving and more about exploring. Mapping your own journey through soulful shifts, embodied insight, and the beautiful becoming that happens when you choose a direction.

So whether you’re here for inspiration, transformation, reflection, or just a pause along the trail, welcome.

Let’s just move. Together.
