Mindful Stories & Cultural Curiosity

Living authentically, creatively, and consciously—one beautiful, complicated moment at a time.

Welcome, kindred spirit

I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. A Hippie Chick is my online front porch—a place where I share stories of creativity, prompts for mindfulness, and connection to family and community. This blog grew from the beauty of my garden, the songs in my playlists, and the quiet moments I find beside a creek or blooming daylily.

Whether you came for comfort, curiosity, or a little beauty in your day, you are welcome here just as you are.

What This Blog Is About

Here you’ll find:

  • • Honest stories about family and community

  • • Reflections about faith from an open-minded perspective, family, and finding your footing

  • • Art that’s made with joy and shared with love

  • • Music, flowers, books, and real-life memories that soothe and calm

If you’ve ever felt at home with your feet in a creek or your nose in a good book, you’re in the right place.
