One spring day in 1976, a family welcomed a new bundle of joy into the world. Jamie’s life was fairly normal with two working parents and an older brother who always watched over his little sister; latchkey kids in a nice home in an upcoming suburb of San Francisco. Eventually, though, her “normal” included a father struggling with addiction, divorced parents, and a strong desire to be fiercely independent. Her heart and soul longed to help and listen to others, to fight for what was right, but she was also looking for answers to some really big questions like “what exactly am I supposed to be doing with this life?!”, “what is my purpose?!” and, “are you there, God? It’s me, Jamie.”

As Jamie grew up, she became a responsible adult, got married, had some kids, added some fur babies to the family, established a career, and once again, had a normal life. But, those big questions kept haunting her, especially as loved ones around her started to die. Her new reality was “Life is too short, what are you waiting for?!” She didn’t need to change her normal life to find her purpose, or God. Instead, she discovered that she needs to open her soul and take a deep dive into the vast universe around her. To keep driving to find her soul’s purpose outside of being a mom, a wife, a daughter, a sister or a friend.

So here she is, knee deep in the unknown of the universe, the Other Side, her emotions, unanswered life long questions and battles, trying to be as raw and open not only for herself, but for her community. Jamie continually stands before the world each day trying to be better, do better, and accept herself. And even though she feels she has a shit ton to learn (don’t we all), Jamie longs to learn and explore as she works on her spiritual journey. She may stumble a lot, but she NEVER stays down! To her, the journey can be beautifully trivial sometimes, but damn good with the effort! Enjoy the ride!
