Hello — I’m so glad you’re here!

​

This site is a little experiment that brings together two of my biggest passions: exploring new technology and sharing timeless wisdom from the voices that have deeply influenced my own life.

 

Several years ago, I went through a season of intense postpartum depression. Looking back, it was one of the most transformative experiences of my life. It brought me back to a deep sense of knowing and faith - a new kind of faith... one grounded in trust, self-awareness, and the quiet reminder that even in darkness, there is light.

 

Over the years, I’ve found myself constantly sharing quotes, books, and teachings from the people who helped remind me of who I am at my core... who we all are. I pass along their wisdom often, whether to friends, family, or my own children - especially when someone is navigating their own version of that storm.

 

Fast forward to now: AI is here, and wow... what a ride! I’m fascinated by what it can do, and I wanted to test it in a way that felt meaningful (and honestly, just for fun). So I decided to use AI to help me create this space and a collection of conversational AI-generated perspectives inspired by the teachers and thinkers who have guided and inspired me over the years. It’s an experiment - part curiosity, part creativity... and I’d love for you to join me and see where it leads.

 

Everything you see here... the website, the "perspectives", the branding, even my profile photo - was built with the help of AI. (All in just a few days!)

 

So, welcome to Rise & Align.

I invite you to explore, reflect, and see what resonates. Let me know what you think and how AI might be sparking creativity or connection in your own life.

​

Here’s to curiosity, connection, and growth... together.
