Although she began spiritual teaching and public speaking in her teens, by college and grad school she was led to becoming a speech pathologist. In her mid-thirties, amidst a busy life with three small children and a husband, she returned to being an intuitive channel for individuals and groups.<\/p>\n<p>For over forty years, she conveyed universal truths that serve in the interweaving of the sacred and the practical. Donna is now retired but delighted to do speaking engagements.<\/p>\n<p>Donna is proud to be the mother of three grown children in their forties and early fifties. She and Dave are blessed that each is successful, fulfilled and happy.\u00a0 Donna and Dave are grandparents of six, ranging in ages from seven to adulthood. For twelve years, they had been part-time caregivers of their three youngest grandchildren. She and Dave, who have been married 50+ years, love camping in their RV. They consider every day to be a blessing.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-279 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/donnaspringgulick.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/DD20hiking_preview.jpeg-300x180.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/donnaspringgulick.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/DD20hiking_preview.jpeg-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/donnaspringgulick.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/DD20hiking_preview.jpeg.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As an author, Donna has published numerous articles, a children&#8217;s book, poetry and inspirational recordings.
