About this site - Steps, Stones, and Soul:

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

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, and moves when we remember that movement itself is a kind of medicine.

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.

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, reflection, or just a pause along the trail — welcome.

Let’s just move. Together.
