Read MoreLately, there have been moments when I question my own value. I’m not doing it on purpose but it just kind of arises on its own from who knows where and it’s a very painful feeling to wrangle with. It may be triggered by a fear of being seen, really seen. If I’m about to […]
Read MoreRegretfully Winterbloom Shows Cancelled: Every year at this time, I head to Boston, one of my happy places, for the coffee, for the bustling squares and for the love of music & song that I’ve yet to experience anywhere else.

Read MoreA few years ago, I wanted to write a letter to the Afghan man who had lost 11 members of his family (8 of them children) at the hands of a US Army sergeant who broke into innocent civilians’ homes at night and killed them. I felt I had to do something. I wanted to tell […]
Read MoreI love this time of year. Like clockwork, my body remembers. As a kid, I’d get out of school, find and my brothers and I would go straight to my Grandma Rosemary’s house in Ottawa, Illinois. We’d run in the sprinkler, go to Pitstix pond, eat ice cream and just hang out. When we returned […]
Read MoreHow do you get back up on the horse? It’s a funny expression since most of us don’t ride horses as part of our daily lives, but a question I ask myself a lot as an artist and entrepreneur. When life calls me away from my work in the world (as my 5-year old daughter’s […]
