Living Your Legacy · How a Home Care Nurse Broke Generational Curses · 8 Jul 2026 podcast

That's a great question.

So when I was younger, I felt like I didn't have a voice.

I was always trying to find my voice, I guess, find my place in home.

And when I was at home, I didn't feel that I had that place at home.

So I searched it.

I found that writing was a great avenue for me to find my voice.

And I've been writing since I was nine years old.

The first poem I wrote ran honorary mention.

And from there, I just kept writing.

and I feel like I just kept going through life.

My parents fought a lot.

The environment was not the best, and I didn't want that to stop me.

I didn't want to continue the generational curses.

My father had ALS, diagnosed when I was 15 years old, and from there, that was my introduction to home care, having hospice come in the home, having just any health care coming to the home setting, and that would change the trajectory of my life forever.

Mm-hmm.

And went to college, went to nursing school, met my husband.

And I found someone else who shared a vision, who wanted a partnership, who wanted to grow with me.

And that's a blessing, because not everybody has that.

So from there, I kept going, finished graduate nursing school, had my family.

And I lived down in central Illinois, away from home, because of how my upbringing was.
