Welcome to Heart Gone Rogue!
I’m so glad we’ve found one another.
At Heart Gone Rogue we refuse to become hardened. Even as we address:
The Rot: Human trafficking. Detention centers. Systems designed to keep us small.
And focus on:
The Resistance: How to fight back without losing your soul, nor your sense of humor, nor your love for humanity.
And prioritize the sacred:
The Redemption: Raising children who see the cracks in the world—and still embrace the light.
I’m a mom, writer, widow, percussionist, and someone who gives a damn about injustice. Heart Gone Rogue is an ongoing conversation with this question at its core: What if tenderness is our most radical act?
