I’m Dorina – mama to 3 strong girls, widow, author, runner, foodie, wife to Shawn, lover of sunrises & sunsets.
When my first husband Ericlee died in 2014 from cancer, I didn’t think I could run again. I felt paralyzed without my partner. I was desperate to find a way forward on the path of grief.

I’ve always been a storyteller. I started out telling stories as a writer, but through the years speaking to groups has also become a “sweet spot” for me. I love sharing a message of hope for a diversity of groups through spoken word, keynote addresses, podcast interviews, school assemblies, and Bible teaching. If you need a speaker for your group, let’s chat!
