During the pandemic many people—second graders, adults, grandparents—were dealing with some kind of depression, sadness, fear or anxiety. While the problems are common, they can be debilitating.

The good news is that there are solutions to these problems. This is why I wrote and completed this book.

Just What I Needed, small pages of gems that will inspire you to redirect yourself and help you navigate through your everyday challenges.
