Welcome!

Thanks for checking out my website.  I'm glad you're here.

I'm Calista Ocean - writer, yoga practitioner, adventure-seeker, and someone who refuses to write a "bio" about myself in the third person.  It's challenging to try to describe myself in a couple of short paragraphs, especially since I'd rather grab a cup of coffee with you so that I could get to know you too.  Besides, eye contact is always nice and it would be lovely to end our chat with a warm hug.

A few things that I'll share with you for now - until we meet a a cafe somewhere...​I'm a fifty-something woman with wild, curly hair that it took me years to love.   I'm a mother (which rocks!)  I'm poet and a novelist and a keeper of journals.  I'm a breast cancer survivor and a recovering perfectionist.  I'm an extraordinary, ordinary woman who loves to dance and travel and sing kirtan and spend time in nature.

What is this site all about?  It's about self-expression.  It's about everything and nothing.  It's a place that I show up to share my journey with others.
