Favorite quote:
“Perhaps this is the moment for which you have been created.” Esther 4:14
When Julia White is not uphill cycling, breathing in music while navigating twisting roads, or running to glimpse a rainbow in a storm, she searches for words that help others drink in the spirit of life. Coming from a long line of story tellers, Julia has a passion for connecting others through sharing tales of the heart. She loves seeing glimmers of the divine in everyday life and her joy is to share those experiences.
Similar to her love of upcycling, her career with youth and families led her to explore different perspectives on generating encouragement and support. In a world marked with tumultuous journeys, sometimes the best remedy is a heartfelt connection to the magic sparkling all around us.
Julia has lived coast to coast, but is certain Illinois has the most beautiful sunsets, the best soft, still whispers of night, and along with her winter-loving kids, husband, and energetic Goldendoodle, calls Bloomington-Normal her home.
My favorite thing about opening a book that belonged to my grandma is finding a corner of a magazine she ripped out or a quote scribbled on the back of envelope. It's my favorite...because I do the same exact thing. Treasures are not always made of gold, sometimes they are made of bits of paper and scribbled handwriting.
