To be immersed in motherhood, especially early motherhood, to roll with the Infinite and unforeseeable tides that shift.

I couldn’t possibly explain how much life has shifted in the last six months.

How much joy, darkness, awe, devastation, growth and new horizons have come my way.

What I know now that has always been true is that devoting my life to true kinship in community and unconventional family dynamics full of love and respect are of paramount importance to me.

I find my place in the center here. My career, my accolades, what I create in the world, my success… all of that is so secondary to me now. And that has been both easy shifting and immensely challenging at the same time.

To see myself in this role and what I have sought for is something I’m so very proud of.

My mantra these days is that I want to move through the world as a safe space for myself and others and be a lighthouse in any weather- rain, shine, the storms, the peaks and the valleys.

My highest calling is to accept where I am in the middle of all things and continue to open my heart to the awe and wonder, the gift that it is to be a human walking this earth.

My prayer is to continue opening up into being a modern matriarch, a beacon of safety and a creative force that drives good things around me.

Do springs turn you on too?

Find what lights you up and keep diving head first.

This woman is a force of nature. I continually see how my mom thinks and acts in decades and it ripples out. HBD Queen. 👑
