Her nationally-acclaimed book, "Opening the Gates of the Heart: A Journey of Healing," is the winner of several awards in 2012, including a Silver Medal for best Gift/Specialty book, an Honorable Mention in the Spirituality category, and an award for best cover art. Prior to 2012, her book received several prizes for Photography and Spirituality alike. Whether speaking or coaching, Carolyn inspires audiences and clients, instilling an awareness of forgiveness, grief resolution, and accountability. Her services are based on her book, which is one of inspirational verses and photographs of wrought-iron gates that guides the reader from great angst to deep inner peace. In her “previous” life, Carolyn was a Registered Nurse for twenty-two years, practicing administrative nursing. “My most gratifying experience was when I was working for a state Social Services Department. While there, I initiated, developed, and operated a program that allowed technology-dependent children who were living in hospital ICUs, to be cared for at home with hourly private-duty nursing care.” Carolyn presents herself to you with the same expertise, determination, and passion that she showed for the children years ago.
