The Author

Cheri (Henke) Kretsch is a Colorado raised mountain woman, growing up in the towns of Conifer and Evergreen, where early on in her life she developed a deep connection with nature and animals. Cheri’s journey, a deep love and respect of nature, only deepened after traumatic events played out in childhood and adolescence. She found her secret to healing through the metaphors that nature taught.

Cheri believes that we are never alone if we are willing to be open to what nature can show us about living our lives in strength and courage.

“Be the mountain is a very spiritual book and is beautifully written. The combination of poetry and the personal journey that the author shares, makes it very special. At the end of each chapter there are insights to ponder. These were thought provoking and served as a guide to look at my own life. I found this book to be an affirmation of my own potential to overcome obstacles and to be like a mountain as I live my life.”
