Hello!
I’m Colleen Reagon.
I’m a communication professional, traveller, and wholehearted living aspirant. I’ve been weaving the threads of these areas of my life together to integrate my work life and my passionate life story. It’s been a process of paring down, finding the essence of all those parts of me to draw the vision, and selecting only what’s essential to my new story.
Writing is at the heart of my vocation and manifests itself in every role I play. I’m an ardent believer that effective communication is the foundation of good relationships. Whether that’s in business, interactions with family and friends, or through the myriad ways that technology enables us to engage with the world.
This website is about my passions, which really is all about words — words to help you communicate effectively; words to chronicle my travel experiences; and words to record my progress on the path to living a passionate life, a wholehearted life.
