—But Who You Are Becoming

What If the Past Isn’t Over? It’s Just Getting Started!

On Memory Pond is a heartfelt journey into the power of memories—how they shape, connect, and guide us forward.

What if your past wasn't something to get lost in but a place to find strength, wisdom, and joy? Through engaging stories, humor, and deep reflection, On Memory Pond helps you embrace your memories without fear, using them as a source of comfort, growth, and inspiration.

Whether you long to reconnect with cherished moments or uncover the hidden lessons in your past, On Memory Pond invites you to wade in, reflect, and discover the beauty of your story.

Your Painful Memories Aren't Holding You Back—They're Calling You Forward

Move from struggle to meaningful reflection.
Move from hiding the past to honoring it.

Six transformations emerge

after reading this book...

1. This Book Will Help You Revisit Your Past

Remember without regrets:

from overwhelmed to

in control.

Some memories sting. Others surprise. However, we should understand all of them, rather than avoiding them. You don't need to move on from your past—you can learn to move with it. With On Memory Pond, you can escape emotional quicksand and enter soothing waters. You don't have to stay stuck in the past. You can transform your story. This time, make it clear, calm, and kind.

2. You Will Balance the Past, Present and Future

Memories are not only in the past - it's how you carry them forward.

You don't need to let go of the past to embrace the present. On Memory Pond shows you how to live in the present. It also honors everything that brought you here. You create moments today by allowing your past to help you rather than hold you back. These moments can grow into meaningful memories tomorrow.

3. You Will Transform Your Memories Into Growth

Your past isn't a weight - it's the fuel that motivates.

The moments that shaped you—losses, wins, lessons, and love—don't have to hold you back. In On Memory Pond, reflection becomes momentum. Emotional burdens transform into strength. You're not meant to survive what's behind you—you're meant to rise because of it. Now's the time to grow through what you've lived.

4. You Will Celebrate Relationships - Quirks and All

Your messy, beautiful relationships deserve a second chance.

Unspoken words, awkward laughter, and lingering pauses are real and not broken. On Memory Pond helps you transform memories into a nurturing foundation. This soil grows compassion and deeper connections. These relationships shape your memories and expand your heart.

5. You Will Embrace the Full Emotional Spectrum

Feel it all - That's where transformation begins.

Real change happens when we stop pushing emotions away. On Memory Pond, you can laugh, cry, reflect, and rise—without shame. This journey honors your entire emotional landscape. We should not try to fix being human, but rather experience it.

6. You Will Create a Living Legacy through Storytelling

Your stories matter - now and for future generations.

The stories you carry connect you to the people you love—past, present, and future. On Memory Pond helps you create a lasting legacy. It crafts stories that celebrate and bring people together. The most powerful stories are those that bring people closer together.

On Memory Pond Changed How I See My Past . . . And it Might Just Change Yours, As Well...

As Our Story Circle Grows — Every Memory Matters

Welcome to On Memory Pond! I'm so happy you're here!

I remember sitting with my mom and going through old photo albums. We laughed at outdated hairstyles from the 1980s, paused at faded expressions, and looked for images of people we once knew, now strangers.

The silence between us said what words never could. On Memory Pond was born in those quiet moments. This book aims to help you cherish your moments, just as I loved those fleeting hours with my mom.

Memories return to us at unexpected times, inviting us to pause, reflect, and sometimes smile.

Maybe your memories feel:
- Scattered
- Bittersweet

- A little heavy

Or maybe they shimmer like dragonflies over still water.

Either way, they matter. They're whispering something sacred.

That's why I'm doing something a little wild.

I'm Giving My Book Away for Free.

There are no hidden costs or obligations. You cover the cost of printing and shipping, and I'll send you your copy.

Why?

I wrote On Memory Pond after years of spending time with my mom, who had Parkinson's and dementia. As time passed, I became her "Memory Girl." I helped her remember songs, faces, and memorable moments from her past. What started as a way to stay close became a way to help others reconnect.

On Memory Pond can help you explore your past. You don't have to stay stuck there. Instead, it offers strength, healing, and unexpected joy. You'll find stories like mine — heartfelt, with a touch of light humor and tender reflections. It provides gentle prompts that connect with you during your lifetime.

If you've ever:

- Paused over an old photo and felt your chest tighten

- Wondered what to do with the stories you've carried for years

- Needed a reminder that the past still has something beautiful to offer

Then this book is for you!

On Memory Pond also offers gentle questions that connect with you at any stage of life. It's not a self-help book that tells you how to fix yourself. It's a companion that gently reminds you—you're human and already whole.

This free offer isn't just about a book. Join us as a Memory Looper, and you'll connect with a community of caring people.

When you request a copy, you will receive a customized invitation to our Memory Loopers Community Monthly Newsletter. It is a place where people connect, get inspired, and share stories.

We have a limited supply of On Memory Pond books available. Don't wait—order your copy today and join us on this journey of rediscovery, remembering, and getting to know each other.

With warmth and wonder,

"Where Every Lily Pad Leads to Another Story."
