I just love that women are so brave and willing to share these stories. Thank you for reading.

Me too. Their stories are my survival guide (paraphrasing a quote — forget who said it). ♥

Yes - agree. If you find the quote, please share. I’d like to use it in the future :-)

I love this story and almost thought it was Kamala's. Isn't it wonderful that we all have stories and never know where our story will impact another!!

Oh yes, Alexis.

Although Buttons and Bows Boutique is not a brick and mortar store, all of the fashion and each of the stories told there is real - is based on a story shared with me by someone I know. It's my way of adding to our collective puzzle :-) I'm so glad you are enjoying.

I love dolphins. I love their wisdom, the poetry and prose of their chatter, and their deep and spiritual nature. And I love your story, as always, Jena.

Thank you, Audrey. I'm tickled you liked it. Quick question. Did you like having the narration or was it a distraction?

I haven't listened to the narration. I'm more of a reader than a listener--my ADHD gets in the way of listening!

Thank you,, Diane. May I ask, did you find the audio helpful or distracting? And was it easy to access the store? I'm still working out bugs trying to find the best way to reach people.

I prefer to read unless I’m walking listening to a podcast or music. Everyone is so different.
