Mimmy is the mother of two grown sons: a former high school teacher, and Sex Education coordinator. While raising her boys, she served on several non-profits: Domestic Violence/Rape Crisis, Handicapped Housing, and an Epilepsy board. Active participation and on-board training she insisted upon. ‘Hands-on ‘train me now’ is her go-to. Tweens and teens have always been her passion to work with.

She accepted a position in the mid-nineties; a board that served women in 4 different states and operated 28 reproductive clinics. A sociologist at heart- she welcomed her chance to make a difference when Planned Parenthood called. At the time, her city had the highest teen pregnancy and STI rates in the state. As a former educator of teens, she, and the educational director (a former Catholic nun) created programs to educate parents, middle schoolers, and teens. She held small groups in her home for willing parents knowing something crucial was missing in the American Sex Education curriculum. Two years later, she and the head of the Department of Health co-founded a Teen Pregnancy Coalition. The pregnancy and STI rates came down significantly. 

These last 3 decades Mimmy has intensely observed the ‘Bigger Picture’; watching our American media become hyper-sexualized, year after year, lower and lower we go. Your Body Is a Gift screamed at her. The running thread in each of her books: physical, psychological, and spiritual tools to lift ourselves up (no matter what), get honest and reclaim our own (often hidden) hearts. True self-worth has a beginning. She discovered this while writing the teen book; something she had been taught by her mother and taken for granted. Identifying one’s feelings, healthy boundaries, and finding one’s values and standards as an adolescent is at the core.

Today, Mimmy lives in a multi-cultural- multi-faith community. Having been raised both in the south & the west coast, and becoming single during the tech age- offered her even broader insight and perspective in her writings and sharing with females.

Females connected to their heart, mind, body &

Spirit will heal our world.
