I typically don’t share too much about my art – just the actual piece as I love giving the people the freedom to relate in their own personal way – but I have to talk about the piece. It has meant two different things to me – what I thought I as creating and what […]

Say Yes to Going Solo
I still get questions about my solo trip which is crazy to think was almost a year ago. I’ve since went on another one to Costa Rica and will be going to a yoga retreat by myself in October. I opened a can of worms with this first solo trip. I have been asked by […]
Bound
“Though her soul requires seeing, the culture around her requires sightlessness. Though her soul wishes to speak its truth, she is pressured to be silent.” ― Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype Okay this is a dark one. No red umbrellas. No birds carrying away the weights […]

No credit to my brilliance:-) It is hard overcoming fears and putting yourself out there – raw and open. All masks down. All beautiful facets of yourself exposed. Guess what though? Once […]

I was at a low point by now. Homesick. Guilt ridden. Missing my kids. Exhausted from the night before. However […]
Love Letters To Your Tribe
When I left for my trip I had a plan. A very detailed plan which I’m very proud to say I followed. Not just a plan for the physical adventure but for the spiritual adventure. There aren’t any books from my research that outlines how to discover your best self in a period of 8 […]

Marionette
This was written in November of 2017 – 8 months ago. I’m in a much better place now and honestly when I read this I thought to myself – I didn’t write these words. I did and I’m damn proud of myself that I found my way out of this. To free myself I must […]
