The Road Home

I’m excited to share with you all a heartfelt update on where I’ve been the past few months— because through it all, one of my most consistent endeavors has been to share the real.

To put it simply, the past six months have been extremely challenging. I thought I was cruising right along with where I wanted to be— with art, my online store, throwing the occasional workshop, and following every creative fancy under the sun… but something hit me in August— my path didn’t feel right anymore. 

Enter— The Dark Night of the Soul. 

Little ripples of questions started till they were waves taking me under— is this the biggest vision I had for my life? What life am I creating for my family? Do I need to feel more supported? Do I feel in connection and collaboration with others? What do I really want???? 

The only thing I could do was begin the process of tearing it all down. Anything that didn’t feel right or light me up was under review— I truly didn’t know who I was anymore. If I wasn’t the artist I had been up to that point, who was I? 

I didn’t realize how much liberation this process would grant me, and how free I would feel when I wasn’t beholden to things I simply outgrew. 

I’m letting the current take me somewhere new. I’m creating a stronger foundation for myself and my family, and my artistic voice. The past few months have awoken the passion I have for helping others discover and build their own foundations, to support and collaborate on their journeys of creating authentic lives. I think that’s the common denominator between my art, design, and the words I wish to share. 

This has materialized as my current focus—helping people with their visual branding. I see branding as truth, as a potent and powerful “This is who I Am” statement to the world. Branding blends all the things I love— Art, Design, Personal Expression, and Self Knowledge. 

We’ll see where this new focus leads. Life feels simpler, more pared down to the essence—living by what feels good and true. I’m open to everything lately—yet still existing in the void. Not always comfortably, but I know I’m where I need to be.
