Getting Inspired with Kathie Donovan

If you’ve been with me from the start, you’ll know that much of what I aim to do with this blog is to help people to know that they are not alone. Sharing our stories takes courage, but it is so freeing when we share ourselves with others. I am so grateful that Kathie Donovan…
