I taught in the public education system for over 20 years.  During that time I saw students could not concentrate on academics because emotional issues and low self esteem got in the way.  I decided to write a curriculum that helped students get out of this struggle.  

I am currently a school counselor and my curriculum is being used in the school system.  I also work with teens online to help them find their happiness.  This is my greatest acheivement.  

In my free time I enjoy my cat Co-Co, traveling, and spending time at the beach!

Nancy Chadwick

Chicago-based writer Nancy Chadwick’s inspiration comes from nature and meandering through the woods of any forest. Her essays have appeared in anthologies, blogs and literary magazines; her memoir, Under the Birch Tree, and her debut novel, The Wisdom Of The Willow (published in May of 2024) are both published by She Writes Press. 

 

Noted as one of 2024's Most Anticipated Books by the Chicago Review of Books, The Wisdom of the Willow is a metaphorically rich and reflective tale of sisterhood and strength—a story of hope and healing, of the choices that shape our lives, and the challenges we all face as we seek to find our places in the world. It’s told from the POV of four sisters in midlife, each dealing with their own life changes and the illness of their mother. The story takes place from Memorial Day to Labor Day in the summer of 1998, making it a perfect Summer Read. 

 

Nancy can talk about: Why place and home are such important concepts in storytelling; What the personal essay and our natural world have in common; Embedding lessons from the natural world into a fictional story; The symbolism of the willow tree and the inspiration behind it; How trees can keep us, as well as our environment, healthy; Changes to our climate and maintaining our mental health and wellbeing; and the differences and similarities between the craft of writing memoir and writing fiction. 

 

Sample questions include: 

You started out as a memoir writer, writing personal essays, why the switch to fiction? Your first book was about a birch tree, and this book incorporates a willow tree. Usually when we talk about trees, it’s about the mighty oak. Why a willow tree? The story revolves around the lives of four sisters, yet only three of them face life changes. Why include a fourth sister? How did you get involved in writing about the natural world? Why did you choose to have Margaret, the matriarch, inflicted with a terminal illness? What is your favorite genre to write, nonfiction or fiction? Why?

Timely tie-ins for Nancy’s expertise include her pub date of May 7, Mother’s Day 5/12, National Love A Tree Day 5/16, Summer Reads, National Tree Day (July 28), and Sisters’ Day (August 4.)

I'd Love to Talk With You & Your Audience!

What’s it like to be a Gifted Healer?

When I began appearing on National Radio & TV Shows back in the 70’s – I can assure you, no one else was talking about; Spirituality, Energy Healing, Remote Healing, Life-After-Death, Reincarnation & let alone - Contrast! 

Let’s Talk About My Gift of Healing

How did you know you had a gift? When was the first time you laid hands on someone? What happened? What do you feel or see during the healing session? What does the individual see or feel? What type of healings can you do? Does everyone get healed? Do the healings last? Are they permanent? How are you able to do Remote Distance Healings, through Zoom?

"I want to thank you, from the depths of my soul for your help. I feel utterly blessed to have found you. The long-distance healing was the most powerful healing I've ever had. I still feel like I am on cloud nine, so peaceful, so calm. I can't thank you enough for sharing your gift with me.” - Susan B.

Because no two paths are the same when it comes to navigating the journey toward more Earth-friendly living, I aim to guide readers and listeners toward discovering what they can do as individuals to effect meaningful change, starting now.

My background as a geologist, environmental law attorney, spiritual practitioner and mother inform my work. I share my personal experiences with candor and humor to inspire other folks to discover their own ways of living a more eco-friendly lifestyle.

I'm the author of Love Earth Now, a deeply thoughtful, often neurotic and sometimes comedic exploration of my own efforts to make an eco-contribution. This book is the result of my own efforts to find ways to live a more sustainable lifestyle without making myself crazy in the process — because there are no perfect answers.

I encourage people to discover for themselves what they have the time, the resources, and the heartfelt interest to do that will make a positive difference in the world, in their families and in their own hearts. 

United States

My deep love of Earth, as well as desperate hope for a sustainable future for my children, fuel my passion for responding to the eco-crises of our time with wisdom, heart, hope, and snarky humor. I write and speak to share my experiences on the razor’s edge between Earth-mindfulness and eco-madness, not because I’ve got it all figured out, but in solidarity with anyone else who’s fumbling along the path of more caring and conscientious living.

I draw from my experience as a geologist, environmental law attorney, small business owner, spiritual practitioner, and mother to claw my way out of the abyss of eco-despair. I seek solace from the sages in Nature who reveal the wisdom I need to navigate a more Earth-loving path.

I credit the Modern Day Priestess program, a training in ancient wisdom ways for practical use in the modern world, for inspiring the spiritual growth that now guides my “Love Earth” work.

I reside in Los Angeles, where I take copious yoga classes, dig up the yard and throw a lot of darts as therapy. I facilitate the Natural Muse Meetup for Earth-loving writers. I serve as on the Board of Directors of the North East Trees nonprofit organization, “bringing Nature back” to nature-poor communities around Los Angeles County.

My book, Love Earth Now, won a 2018 Silver Nautilus Book Award.

I share a home with my husband and children, and three cats who care not one whit about any of my credentials.

Get More Tank is a fuel catalyst (not to be confused with products that are fuel additives).  The Get More Tank patented formula works in any gas or diesel engine to start burning fuel earlier in the combustion process so that all of the fuel is burned.  This results in 3 basic things.  First, it unlocks all of the energy that is stored in the fuel resulting anywhere from 10-20% increase in mileage. This means a huge cost savings in fuel expense. Second, there are no particles left over to clog an engine which unnecessarily shorten its life and performance.  Third, there are no emissions leaving the tailpipe.  

 

One of the great benefits of Get More Tank is that it unleashed the amazing engine technology that is in every vehicle, but has been compromised by how fuel is made today.

 

It can't void engine warranties because it does not change the fuel, it only causes it to burn completely.  The company carries a $1M liability policy against such an event and there has never been a claim filed.  It's made in the US.  

 

It's easy for consumers to use.  It is a tablet you place at the opening of a gas tank and you let the gas pump nozzle push it down the tube to the gas tank when filling up.  The tablet dissolves by the time the vehicle leaves the gas station.

 

This formula has been proven over decades of use, but the manufacturer has been concentrating their marketing efforts to heavy industry, such as big earth moving equipment and the trucking industry.  Now Get More Tank is bringing it to the passenger vehicle market.   Since it works in any gas or diesel egine, it works in cars, trucks, motorcycles, atvs, farm tractors, semis, lawn equipment-in short any fossel fuel engine.

 

Get More Tank removes any and all arguments for Electric Vehicles as it solves the emissions issue.  Moreover, science has proven that the earth will not run out of oil.  Additionally, consumers pay less taxes to state and federal governments since taxes comprise the majority of the price of gasoline and diesel.

 

I have an exclusive license with the company to advertise their formula.  

 

I have personally been using Get More Tank for over a year and have found that in our household we are saving $150 per month.
