Shelley’s Books
Decant & Swirl
Discover the Art of Uncorking a Vibrant Life
More than a book. A fresh perspective on what’s possible.
Life has a way of changing our plans.
Sometimes it happens gradually. Other times it arrives all at once.
Either way, there often comes a moment when we find ourselves asking, “Now what?”
Decant & Swirl grew out of that question.
Part memoir, part life philosophy, and sprinkled with wine wisdom along the way, this book is an invitation to rediscover yourself, embrace possibility, and create a life that feels rich with meaning, connection, and joy.
Inside you’ll find stories that will make you laugh, moments that may bring a tear, practical exercises that encourage reflection, and gentle reminders that some of life’s most beautiful chapters begin in the most unexpected places.
Because while we don’t always get to choose what happens to us, we do get to choose what we create from here.
Keep the Conversation Going
sparking conversations long after the final page
One of the greatest joys of writing Decant & Swirl has been watching it spark conversations that continue long after the final page.
Whether we’re gathered around a table, connecting virtually, or meeting at a speaking event, my hope is always the same, to create experiences that encourage people to think differently, to be energized, and leave feeling inspired about what’s possible.
Book Club Uncorked
Invite me to your next book club, virtually or in person.
Together we’ll dive into the stories behind the book, the lessons that shaped each chapter, and the conversations that naturally unfold when women gather to share life together.
Want to make the moment even more memorable? I can also recommend a featured wine pairing to complement your discussion.

From wine bars and boutiques to bookstores, libraries, festivals, and community events, every gathering is a chance to connect, share stories, sign books, and celebrate the power of a great conversation.
Speaking
Keynote presentations and workshops
Many of the themes in Decant & Swirl have grown into keynote presentations and workshops for organizations, businesses, conferences, and women’s groups.
Together we explore resilience, reinvention, relationships, well-being, and what it looks like to build a vibrant life, even after life doesn’t go according to plan.
