In 2022, I am applying GRACE to different topics and publishing these discoveries on the 10th, 20th, and 30th of every month.

Welcome to Post 2 on my discoveries into grace, my word for 2022. I’ve been thinking about where grace comes from. I’m currently defining “grace” as giving awareness to space and time, thinking and feeling. This definition is slightly different from my first grace post, where I announced grace as my word for the year….
I am SO glad I’ve crafted this space online to create a workflow and a living, breathing journal of my work and words. When I launched this website in 2019, I had many goals before “settling” on my name, from “Introvert Guide to Life” to “Word Nerd.” I am happy to share that different webpages…
