In the Neighborhood: Changes These Women are Making Physically, Spiritually, and Mentally

[et_pb_section admin_label="section"] [et_pb_row admin_label="row"] [et_pb_column type="4_4"][et_pb_text admin_label="Text"] Story and photos by Brigid Morrissey Melinda Lusk Sometimes it’s hard to open up to a friend or family member, let alone a complete stranger. The women who braved the gusty winds on a cold April day along the Big Four Bridge could’ve chosen to be as cold as it was outside. Instead, I was welcomed into their stories. I listened as they shared tales of hurt, triumph, and beautiful chaos. The congruent posture of these women was a refined contentment, at peace with their circumstances and inspiring [...]

Just Ask Joyce: My Ex is Demanding to Keep the Dog, and Our Kids are Broken Hearted

[et_pb_section admin_label="section"] [et_pb_row admin_label="row"] [et_pb_column type="4_4"][et_pb_text admin_label="Text"]By Joyce Oglesby “I’ve been divorced for a year. My ex located close by in order to be near the kids. Now, I’m remarrying and will be moving several counties away. Our family dog was his idea a few years ago. I didn’t want nor need the responsibility of caring for anything else, and I knew it would fall upon my shoulders. It did.
