I have a big box in my garage filled with journals I’ve kept since I was in my 20’s. It’s been my nature to get in touch with my thoughts through writing. It’s helped me to make sense of how I respond to life as it presents itself.
Since 2007 I’ve shifted much of what I focus on in my personal journaling to my blog here. I figure that we’re all in this together, and that none of us have been provided with a tutorial for life. I’m hoping you might benefit from a glimpse of life that I share, just as I’d benefit from hearing your perspectives.
Other effort towards sharing inspiration include my two self-published books about career change, Inner Architect: How to Build the Life You Were Designed to Live and Unleashing Your Soul.
I am always looking for an understanding of the reason behind something that just happened.
My day job is running a small and growing marketing agency in the San Francisco Bay Area. When I’m not at the office ,I’m probably working out, gardening, or experimenting with a new healthy recipe.
Thank you for stopping by. I would love to hear from you.
Best,
Susan Hanshaw
Digging for Meaning 
Thanks to Face Book I found your site. I’ve been unemployed for several months after being in the same career path for 20 years, made a major move 3,000 miles to find work, ended a 12 year relationship with a man that wasn’t good for me and I have financial trouble. I am adventuring into unknown new territories. Your inspiring advice wil help me move forward with faith. Thank You!

I came across your Blog when doing a word search on a particular idea I was working on for a sermon. I want to express to you my thanks for insights and wisdom. Reading through a few of your writings has been a blessing to me and I look forward to reading more at a later date as I have the time. I also intend to purchase your book “Unleashing Your Soul.”
The Lord has given you a gift and you are responding well in using that gift for His glory.
God bless you and again, thank you.
