I&#8217;m Veronica, it&#8217;s nice to meet you. This is the very first post on this brand new site!\u00a0 The Wholeness Shift is an intentional living and spirituality blog.\u00a0\u00a0It is also about personal growth, spirituality, and living a balanced, productive life.\u00a0\u00a0I thought I would take a few moments to introduce myself and to talk about my intention is for this new project.<\/p>\n<h2>Let me introduce myself&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been a blogger for nearly fifteen years, and so I have a lot of experience with it. However, my other blog is a place that is more of a life chronicle or journal. It was very much me-centered. I&#8217;m at the point in life now that I&#8217;m much more interested in creating a space that is about connection, community, and service. I have a passion for seeing people live their best lives and I believe I can help you with that. So, who am I and what makes me qualified to help, you may ask.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>By profession I am a Registered Nurse. I have been a nurse for nearly twenty years now (time flies!) and I currently work for a renowned healthcare system here in Ohio. Not only have I been the nurse, but I have also been a patient.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>I have lupus and have dealt with that, as well as a few other chronic illnesses for nearly thirty years now. I know what it\u2019s like to not feel good, but have to keep on going. I know how hard it is to have to cook dinner for your hungry kids because kids get hungry whether you are sick or not. I\u2019ve been there.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>For most of their lives, I was the single mother to four children. Parenting is hard under perfect circumstances, but it is SO hard when you\u2019re doing it on your own! I put myself through college (twice) and worked a full-time job. So I have plenty of experience when it comes to that.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>My kids are all grown now and I have yummy little grandbabies to love on. Which means that I also have experience with knowing what it\u2019s like to face middle-age and all that comes with it. Changing home life, changing body, changing emotions\u2026it can be hard and scary. Not to mention the insecurities that can come with changing looks.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>What is most exciting for me to talk about is that a few years ago, I went through a major spiritual awakening! I learned SO much and am still learning every day! I want to share with you all the wisdom I have gained! Perhaps you are going through the same thing. Perhaps you have always been curious about spirituality but aren\u2019t sure where to start. Well then it is no accident that you are here. Trust that you are in the right place and let me share with you all that I have learned.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is this\u2026if there is a situation or a struggle that you are facing, I have most likely faced it too. I struggled for many years and wish I had someone who had already been through it that was willing to be my friend and mentor me or to share the wisdom they had gathered. Let me be that friend for you!<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>I have built a life that is peaceful, balanced, centered and grounded. Sure I have moments that are difficult, but they are just moments. I can honestly say that I love my life and I feel happy and fulfilled every single day of it. The key is living an intentional life (we will talk more about that soon!) which will lead to living the life of your dreams. Stick around and go on this journey with me and I will help you navigate the path.\u00a0 Often all it takes is a small shift in your life&#8230;in your perspective or behavior&#8230;to reap big benefits.\u00a0 Are you ready?\u00a0 Lets begin.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>xoxo,<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Veronica<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello and welcome to The Wholeness Shift.
