“Whispers & Hugs: True Stories of Signs, Synchronicities, and Messages from Beyond” — A Book in Progress
You might have heard my story about the flash flood and how a quiet nudge from the Universe kept me safe. Or how a wave slapped me across my face when I was feeling all alone and a voice distinctly said, “No your’e not!” Moments like that remind me how deeply connected we all are to signs, guidance, and the gentle whispers that shape our lives.
In a world that can feel so noisy with confusion and doubt, these moments of connection matter more than ever. They remind us that we’re not alone, that love shows up in surprising ways, and that the Universe still knows how to get our attention when we need it most.
That’s why I've decided to compile true stories into a book to inspire, comfort, and guide others. And I'd love for your story to be part of it. “Whispers & Hugs: True Stories of Signs, Synchronicities, and Messages from Beyond” (working title).
Have you ever:
Received a dream or sudden thought that changed your path?
Felt nudged to do—or not do—something, and it made all the difference?
Seen repeated signs, symbols, or animals carrying meaning?
Been comforted by a loved one in spirit in a way that left no doubt?
Your experience could be the very message someone else is waiting to hear….
Deadline for submissions: Nov 1, 2025
A few important details: Contributions are voluntary, and there is no compensation (monetary or otherwise) for stories included in the book. Additionally, there is no fee to participate. I’ll contact you if your story is selected for inclusion. Your name will be included, or you can remain anonymous.
The book will be published and sold (ebook and/or hardcopy), featuring real stories from people like you to inspire and uplift readers. I may also share your story on my podcast, social media, or other media outlets.
Stories may be lightly edited for clarity while keeping your voice and essence intact. These are short stories (probably around 500-1000 words), so don't feel you have to write a lengthy or perfect piece to be considered. I'm looking for authenticity and heart.
Here’s two of my own true stories as samples of what I plan to include in the book. Although I don’t plan to include photos, I thought this first story was a beautiful example of signs and synchronicities. In addition to each story, I’ll be adding a reflection and action prompt.
The Window of Light (a sample story)
During a Zoom call with my wonderful friend and spiritual mentor, Michelle Sorro, we were brainstorming ideas for my work as an intuitive guide. As we talked, a beautiful light began streaming through her window, growing brighter and brighter. It felt like the Universe itself was saying: “Yes! That’s it!”
The timing was perfect. We were discussing new ways I could step more fully into my gifts, bringing love and light into the lives of others. The light wasn’t just illumination—it was a tangible nod from the universe, a confirmation that alignment feels joyful, expansive, and supported.
The Wave That Whispered (another sample story)
The day after my husband’s funeral I went to the beach to clear my thoughts and comfort my heart. I remember wandering into the surf, standing in the salt-bright water with tears tracking down my face. In a small, hollow voice I said, “Well, I guess I’m all alone now.”
The ocean answered—literally. A huge wave slapped my face. In that moment I distinctly heard, not with ears but with the soft certainty of something true: “No. You are not. You are not alone.”
That was the first of many days when the world around me began to speak back. Whispered voices, intuitive nudges, pennies on the pavement—proofs that a guiding force was watching over me. That first message didn’t fix the brokenness, but it gave me a place to rest: a small, steady knowing that comfort would come again.
I look forward to hearing your story!
