Sitting with the pain...
I’m sharing something that feels vulnerable today — a journal entry I wrote during a really hard morning. This is especially for deep feelers who struggle with self-worth and loneliness at times. Remember to be kind and gentle with yourself. 💗 Get full access to Aiming4Joy at...

Spring is a time for new beginnings...
Hi Friends! I know it’s been a while. Besides my regular life, I’ve been keeping busy with a few classes on surface pattern design and setting up an art business…. So I’ll be swimming in homework ‘til about June. Yay! But I was able to record a podcast for you today. Would love to hear your...

The world is made up of us-
We say we want more peace in the world- less anger, less hatred, less violence… We get our news and shake our heads and yell in fury. And how are we in our own lives? Are we calm? Are we kind? Are we understanding? Or do we fill our days with impatience, resentment, judgement, blame, comparison…?...

Stepping Back In--
A personal update, thoughts about the world we’re living in at the moment, and a call to my fellow quiet ones - let’s encourage and inspire each other.

I wish you had a happier life...
We’re going into Mother’s Day weekend here in the United States. I wrote this poem about a year after my mother died. It’s been seven years now. We had a very - complex - relationship. Sometimes I still find myself searching, longing, wishing…for a deeper connection with her. Whether or not we…

It would feel so nourishing to be given to...
Why is it so hard for you to understand that I am more than just “your” someone? I am a person, a soul, a human, in my own right!!!!! I have feelings. I have dreams. I have pain. I get tired. I have bad days. I need breaks. I need help too. I want to have fun. I need kindness. I need rest. I need...

Happy May!
A personal update and musings on figuring out our own natural rhythms in this life of ours. If you’ve listened to me before, you probably know that I tend to go off on different tangents and I definitely did I think! Hopefully there’s some nugget in there that’s useful. Topics I’ve touched on…

"I’d love to give you something, but what would help?" ~Ikkyu
“I’d love to give you something, but what would help?” I see your suffering - the doubt, the loss of hope, the despair, the numbness, the wanting to escape…. I want to do something, I wish I had the answers, I so dearly care about you - but what would help? The truth is, I can’t fix anything for...
