Stories, Honored

What a Custom Poem Has Meant

Jessi is an amazing woman and a great friend. Sitting down with her for a brainstorming call about my sobriety journey showed me a whole new side of her talent. She created a space where I felt totally safe to lay my story out there. What she wrote from that conversation — "A Hero's Journey" — absolutely blew me away. She didn't just write a poem; she captured the raw struggle and self-doubt I've lived through, the hard work it has taken to change, and the peace and acceptance I feel today. I read it all the time. Jessi has a rare gift. She doesn't just listen — she feels your story and transforms life's deepest truths into beautiful art. If you want someone to honor your story, she is the one.

The poem you wrote for me is blessing my children, to remind them to see the world through God's own work and they will be restored. Her words from the custom poem are underlined. She is wonderfully gifted.

The Wild Notes

The Wild Notes is a monthly offering—part field journal, part reflection, part quiet invitation. Each month, I share poems, musings from the natural world, creative notes, and gentle updates from my life and work as the Poet of the Wild. It’s a place to slow down, listen closely, and remember our belonging to the living world. If you’re drawn to language shaped by earth, season, and spirit, I’d love to meet you there.
