Everything shifted when...

Reader, Mum's eyes swelled with tears as Dad gave me one more squeeze. There's nothing as bittersweet as saying goodbye to my parents. As I watched their figures fade into the airport crowd, I found myself reflecting on how (and why) our relationship has flourished with time. Things used to be argumentative and crunchy. Nowadays, there's openness, ease, and a levity. The BIG insight: Everything shifted when I stopped trying to change them. For the longest time, I couldn't see how my need for...

Hello Reader, There’s something thrilling about sharing a work in progress—the bold act of opening the door to your creative process and revealing something raw.

Reader, It's true, I am proud. Proud of the little things that are making big differences in my life this year. Avoiding avoidance. Taking action, and taking time (off). Finding what matters and doing more of it. Listening, discerning. Not people-pleasing, not taking things personally. Meeting moments with curiosity (not conviction). Seeing the beauty and enjoying the playground. Making art—creating content that matters. Being accountable, being disciplined, being true. Showing up,...

’Tis the season Reader… To embrace the lunacy of life. The countless miracles that have merged to make a single breath reality. Sun, perfectly placed. Gravity, exactly as required. Moon, creating flow for all. Winds dance with oceans, clouds turn to rain. Life fades into death, only to feed life again. Throw a seed, and a tree grows. Unfathomable beauty, naturally.

It was me putting momentum into intention. The reaction was priceless (see below). First Reader, here's the...
