For years, I've been helping people make a way—even when it felt like there wasn't one. As a therapist, author, and dream consultant, my mission is simple: to remind people that it's never too late to begin again. 

Your dreams are not behind you. They're waiting for you. I wrote In the Meantime because I see firsthand how heavy life feels for so many of us right now. 

People are tired. Overwhelmed. Disconnected. I hear it from my clients. I see it in my community. And I feel it in my own bones on trying days. 

 This book won't fix everything but it will help you get through it. It will help you breathe when it's hard to. It will help you stay connected to yourself when the world feels like too much. In the Meantime is here to remind you that you're not crazy, you're not alone, and you're not broken. 

You're living through hard things—and still finding a way. This moment isn't the end of you. It's the messy, in-between part—the part where strength is built and hope is tested. But you're still here. And there's still something beautiful ahead. Let's heal together, in the meantime.
