Proprietor of Wonder and Magic and creator of Living Bright

Hello there! I'm Tracie. I wear many many hats including mom of five, wife, teacher, and lover of all things wondrous. I created Living Bright because I was observing so many amazing people who are just surviving and not thriving. I am a licensed and certified Personal Development Educator, Life coach, Reiki Master and NLP Practitioner. I want to be able to bring the world a little more everyday radiance and then have others pass that along so we all have more Light in our lives.

Since it is about the Journey .........
