In the midst of winter, I found there was in me, an invincible summer. – Albert Camus

Can’t remember the last winter in the PNW that was this sunny and dry. Not complaining. I am digging it, immensely. This just might be the first winter in a long time that I haven’t succumbed (yet) to the blues. It’s turning out to be a full-on winter of possibility rising up, a bubbling of energy, biz projects underway, family adventures in the wings.

Currently spending a couple of hours editing videos for my upcoming painting ecourse. I grabbed the "hello possibility, hello gratitude" mug. Seemed appropriate. It also says "hello wide open heart" which is a great reminder as I pour myself into this pro
Other than work and family, it’s been a pretty quiet time. Been working a lot on my upcoming e-course (just a few weeks away!), writing a ton of lessons, thinking about it constantly (inspired!), and generally pouring my heart into making it excellent. Feels really, really good.

Totally random, but I walked into a Dr. Marten shoe store the other day for the first time in probably 20 years and was shocked to see the same exact pair of shoes I wore all through high school.

It all matters.

Received the most gorgeous dreamcatcher from Rachael Rice. If you look closely, you’ll see the “trust” feather in the mix (my word of the year). I am in love, love, love with this and can’t wait hang it up. She is one talented soul, that Rachael.

More soon!

Sending much love,
