Meet Lucy…

Does What you Believe Hold True?

Born into an Italian Catholic family, we had many traditions. Sometimes I wasn’t sure if the tradition was because we were Italian or because we were Catholic.

One day after Sunday School while talking with my friends, I learned the news about Santa Claus.

For a brief second, I wondered if the same could be true about God. That’s when I concluded that they wouldn’t have built the church we were in if it wasn’t really true.

I continued to believe that day, and have ever since.

I turn to my faith often to inspire, uplift and encourage me.

It works for me and I want to share it with you.

It’s time we release our limiting beliefs and focus on the truth, one moment at a time.

What’s The Lesson Here?

As my career progressed, I began to see my life as a classroom, filled with life lessons and wow moments.

This is when I began sharing weekly messages to inspire, uplift and encourage members of my coaching groups and then with a broader audience as well.

I call these “Wow Moments”.

Later, I would compile 33 Wow Moments and package them in my first book – Inspired by the WOW Moments of Life.

  • "I read them because you take ordinary situations and make them very basic to daily life."

    Mary Benson

  • "I read them because they make me stop and think about how your situation works in my life too. They are uplifting and we all need that right now. More than ever!"

    Ann Allanason

  • "Your messages are always so uplifting! You take the ordinary and make it extraordinary with your wisdom and insight."

    Chana Kostka Ball

  • "I am uplifted weekly by your gifted way of seeing and conveying the WOW in every day situations. And these are all so relatable I am so grateful for your sharings Lucy! "

    Jo-Ann Rote

  • "Lucy, you are a bright light, an “encourager” which is a beautiful gift from the Holy Spirit!"

    Patricia Jordan Gillespie

  • "Lucy, you have a “fan” in me because you are very gifted in how you beautifully and imaginatively present an experience in your life and make it totally relatable in mine! Thanks for using His gift!"

    Teresa Cason Barrett

  • "Your messages are heartfelt and I can always apply your “Weekly Wow” to my life. Thank you for sharing your love of God with us! "

    Theresa Hull Moore

  • "I look forward to reading your wows. They always make sense and make a connection with me. Our lives are are all about impatience, stress, anxiety, Etc. It always makes sense to me and gives me a new appreciation for nature, life, and all the other things that make us who we are. Keep it going please!"

    Anne Maas Cooper

  • "Lucy – Good morning! I read your WOW because I find it uplifting and encouraging. You words make me pause and think about my life for a brief moment as I start my week! Thank you for ALL your WOWs. Let me know if I can help you in any way. Have a super week! "

    -Phyllis

  • "You are so inspiring, the way you write and the vision which you see things from a different perspective than I would normally think about life. I LOVE your posts. They give me pause to think EVERY week😊 I love how you always give God the glory!!!!"

How might I Serve You?

Although a church going girl, I was also mischievous and rebellious. I made bad choices and got in trouble.

There were struggles, disappointments, sadness and more.

There still is. That’s life.

At a young age, the Prayer of St. Francis really resonated with me.

Somehow I knew then, I was called to serve others in this way.

“Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.”

Name Your Purpose

I believe we are called by name. For me, this affirms that:

we are loved,
we are cared for and,
we have a purpose.

My purpose is to share some good news with you.

My hope is that as you receive it, it will inspire, uplift and encourage you one Wow Moment at a time.

Lu-cy\lu-see\ n [Latin Origin] means light

1: someone to shed light on your situation, helping you discover a new and positive perspective, 2: someone to brighten your path, helping you more clearly see the possibilities ahead, 3: a well-maker


My vision for the future is to make a positive impact in this world by helping you Feel Go(o)d.

I am committed to sending out free weekly moments of inspiration and encouragement.

For, it is in giving that we receive.

Thanks for being on this journey with me.
