Can flowers heal us? Can nature help us rediscover who we really are?

In my recent interview with Stephanie Khoury of Peaceful Petals Flower Farm Marengo, Illinois, we spend the day uncovering all the ways nature, flowers, and slowing down can heal your soul.

Stephanie Khoury, courageously left a successful corporate marketing career to follow a calling that transformed her life planting and sharing the joy of flowers.

Together, we explore how slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and trusting the seasons of life can lead us back to purpose, joy, and true well-being.

I hope this episode brings you as much joy as it has brought me. ✨

You can watch the video cast on YouTube or listen to Nourish Me anywhere you listen to podcasts. Link in comments.

Stay tuned for a day of nourishment and renewal hosted by Stephanie and I among the flowers at the farm
Saturday, September 19th, 2026 when you can
Let Your Soul Bloom!

Every July, we celebrate our freedom in the United States 🇺🇸
But this year, let’s also celebrate…

The freedom to think our own thoughts 😀

The freedom to create before we consume 🎨

The freedom to sit in silence 🧘‍♀️

The freedom to trust our intuition ✨

The freedom to let our unique imagination run wild 🐎

The freedom to be fully present with the people we love.❤️

This month’s edition of The Human Advantage explores why protecting our human qualities in a world driven by AI may be one of the most important acts of independence we can practice.

What does “the freedom to be human” mean to you?

Every natural disaster happened to me mentally.
🌋Eruptive conversations, 🌪️head spinning events, ⚡️electric encounters- all exciting and overwhelming at the same time!

I love to Integrate Wellness! - and this year two of my favorite organizations got together to elevate wellness at Girls on the Run NW Illinois 5K race Sunday. Northern Illinois Tennis Association and Gina Jasovic were proud sponsors of GOTR 5K this year. 🎉

Lisa Kaptur Puma and Gina collaborated on integrating Red Ball tennis at this special event. There was awesome USTA swag give aways and even some really slick rackets!

As a USTA Ambassador and GOTR COACH I was able to enjoy Tennis, Running, and community collaboration at its best!

Another fun filled evening of tennis and wellness in the books at The Racket Club!

Last Friday’s RALLY and RESTORE: Ladies Evening of Tennis and Wellness reminded me of something important:

Ladies are craving space where they can move, breathe, recover, laugh, connect, and socialize!

Not at a bar, but on the courts!

We spent the evening with an amazing cardio tennis routine with USTA Midwest Executive Director and Coach Gina Jasovic! And Schrama, assisting in making us sweat till we bled! 🎵

We stretched and relaxed, shared food, cocktails and conversation, and a few even took home fantastic raffle gifts thanks to Vulcan Room, Shelby Nariss Younge of Glow de Vivre, and Herbert’s Saltbox Bakery.

Thanks to Lynille Steffenhagen who provided relaxing Massage Therapy treaments and to Smith Physical Therapy+ and April Flood, PT who released tension with Dry Needling technique and soft tissue therapy!

Thanks to the awesome Rob Laue of The Racket Club! Who always accommodates us at the highest level.

Thank you to everyone who came, collaborated, supported, and helped create such a meaningful experience.

More to come!✨
