The birth of her second daughter who had a severe brain injury changed the direction of Veronica's life forever. The lessons she learned from Jacqueline Bree's life and death are now her touchstone for living a whole, vibrant and remarkable life. 


From her early career as a nurse and midwife, through evolutions as a project and change manager, CEO and consultant, Veronica now divides her time between writing and coaching remarkable women leaders who want to make a powerful and compassionate impact on the world.


Veronica and her daughter Cassi have teamed up for "The Adventures of Chickabella", a read-aloud children's picture book series about basic concept: "Chickabella and the Rainbow Magic", "Chickabella Counts to Ten" and "Chickabella Shapes Up".  Chickabella is dedicated to the memory of her sister, Mary who told the best stories.  


Veronica has also written "Breathing While Drowning: One Woman's Quest for Wholeness" and "The Wholeness Quest Workbook & Journal: Reflections on the 10 stages of the Heroine's Journey."  She is currently completing, Soul Staff: Book Two of The Opal Dreaming Chronicles, which is due for release in late 2020.
