The Ordinary Bruja

For fans of Mexican Gothic and The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina, The Ordinary Bruja is a psychological horror and magical realism novel about grief, ancestral secrets, Dominican brujería, and one woman’s fight to reclaim the magic her family tried to bury.

When strange messages appear in mirrors, and the scent of cigar smoke follows her through her small Ohio hometown, Marisol Espinal must confront the ghosts of her past, the truth about her mother’s death, and the family curse waiting for her on Hallowthorn Hill.

Her family buried the magic. Now it wants out.

Ever felt like your conversations were missing a deeper connection? I sure did, until a surprising twist at a singles retreat taught me the profound impact of active listening and the five love languages. Discover how this unexpected lesson helped me bond with my son through our shared love language of acts of service. By setting distractions aside and truly being present, I learned to communicate in a way that strengthened not just my personal relationships but my professional ones too.

Join me as we unpack the principles of Master Resiliency training and the transformative power of active, constructive responding (ACR). We’ll explore how to avoid derailing positive interactions by steering clear of message hijacking, pessimism, and outright neglect. Using the analogy of treating good news like a precious gift, I’ll share practical strategies for enhancing meaningful connections both at home and at work. You’ll hear insightful stories from my life as a single parent and professional, offering you the tools to become a better listener and create more resilient relationships.
