Our guest for today is a self-taught decorative artist who, as a single mother, built her business into a nationally recognized company with projects published in every major design magazine in the US. Her new memoir, “This or Something Better” takes an unflinching look at early abuse and its effects. Readers learn how nature guided and empowered her successful career, until devastating fires on her mountain forced her to face her lifelong issues with trust. She and her husband live in Northern California, where they hike and ride horses on Sonoma Mountain.
