Meet your host
Hello there — I'm Tracy.
I'm the proud single mom of four incredible daughters. Originally from Leo, Indiana, I've been fortunate enough to call both the tropical paradise of Panamá and the sunshine state of Florida my home.
As a Realtor® working in the USA, I've learned that every home — like every person — has a story. I wear many hats, and the one I'm most passionate about is being the voice behind this show: a platform dedicated to inspiring, educating and empowering.

The book & the movement
Gratitude Through the Cracks
Finding Beauty in Life's Broken Places
"Gratitude Through the Cracks" is becoming more than a phrase to me. It's becoming a movement. Maybe the cracks aren't the end of the story. Maybe they're where the light finally gets in.
This isn't just merchandise. It's a message — a daily reminder that you can be grateful even in the middle of your mess.
