Twyla Franz is a relentless believer in direction over pace, and a proponent of ripple-effect living. A blueberry tea drinker, sourdough bread baker, minimalist wanna-be, chalk painter, mom of three, and wife to her first and forever. She plays worship songs loud and on repeat, and numbers her thanks to remember gratitude is a before, not an after. As an introvert who now has a village of neighbors, she believes a meaningful life with the people right in front of you and God spilling into your relationships is possible.
