I am one with the…

soil beneath my feet.
clouds above my head.
trees that give me shade.
soft breeze that kisses my cheek.
sun that warms me.water that soothes me.
plants that feed me.flowers that tempt me.
moon that lights the way.birds that serenade the sunrise.
animals that roam.insects that cross my path.
rain that pours upon me.snow that tickles my skin.

I am all things nature, all things Earth.
Sincerely connected and magically intertwined… forever loyal to her beauty

She is my light, my darkness and everything in between. I am forever inspired and grateful.

My beloved Mother Earth, you are everything ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This is exactly how I’ve been feeling lately. It’s taken some time for me to find a certain flow, especially this past year. Change has never been an issue for me, I actually welcome it and adjust fine. But with major waves coming through sometimes it’s hard to get above water.

I always find a way to make it work. Always. And this time I slowly accepted what is and actually embrace it. I believe everything happens for a reason. Coincidences don’t really exist. So I take everything as it comes. And sometimes you wake up to what a blessing something can be.

Sadly, there will always be people who will try to bring you down. They may not do it purposely but they are doing it nonetheless. And my response to that is… No one is going to throw me off track. And no one is going to fuck up my flow. It may not be how you would choose to live your life but it’s the best for me and my family. And something we should all want for everyone is happiness. Positive vibes only.

I am so grateful to call this studio mine. For years I worked out of a home office in all the places I’ve lived and once we had a child I felt it was time to have a space of my own. Now I am able to grow my business in more ways than I ever could and I can work in peace. It truly is my escape. It took a long time for me to get here but I did it. Never give up on your goals and dreams. NEVER. When you are passionate about something, as I am about art and design, put all of yourself into it and work hard at achieving the success you hope for. Design has and always will be the one thing that keeps me moving. The one thing that makes me feel alive. I am wholeheartedly thankful I found a home through creative expression. It’s an amazing feeling to know you are doing what you were born to do.

These past few months there has been a shift within me. I’ve always been a positive person but lately my vision for the future just seems totally doable, as apposed to challenging (like it sometimes can be). My outlook is pure sunshine. And even though we have a lot going on and I have a ton of things on my mind, my drive to make shit happen is in full force. Between big work projects, holidays, Elliot’s bday party in May, my joint bday bash with my mom in July, various house projects, and planning our family vacation, I have more than plenty to keep me busy. My work hustle is on point, more than it ever was, and I’m doing my best to really focus on the growth of my business. Being positive is at the core of everything and when you surround yourself with the things you love it makes it so much easier to be happy. And that is what I strive for. My vision for the future is looking bright because I will NOT have it any other way. And that is my superpower.
