What a beautiful and special equinox we are experiencing. As you may have noticed, the energy has been increasingly intense the last year and the beginning of this year. So many people are being forced to lighten up their life. To let go of the things holding them back from their peace, joy and abundance. We are being called to be accountable to ourselves. To heal ourselves. To un-become the person we know and become the beautiful, uninhibited, powerful being we always

A new year rolls in like one more wave hitting the shoreline. Consistent, predictable and always changing the structure of the shore. Celebrating a new year goes back about 4 millennia! Although each civilization celebrated at different times with their own traditions, the basis remained the same, it was a new start. A rebirth. A time of change and more opportunities. We have many traditions that are celebrated in current times around the world. One of the most popular i

I have felt a call to put pen to paper these days. I used to write all the time, poetry had always been a way for me to get through tough emotional times. I wrote a lot as a teen, but totally got away from it in my adult life. (these are some of my actual teenage notebooks of poetry!) I am once again embracing this gift and allowing whatever comes to pour out. Not surprising, it tends to be a a lot of empowering words, encouraging me to draw on my own strength and power,

Wouldn’t we all like to create more abundance in our lives? Why does it feel like sometimes things are going really good and then all of a sudden, BAM- nothing is going right? The law of attraction says like attracts like. So, we need to examine our thoughts that are happening when something comes up that is not to our liking (because thoughts are energy). If we are honest, most of us go right to the place of, “oh no, here we go, I knew things were going to good…..what is g

So, I have been making sure to allow more time to have heart to heart talks with the women closest to me. It is something I have needed deeply, and believe it or not, it is something I didn’t allow much time for during the majority of my life. It has truly fed my soul and kept me sane during some very rough times in my life lately. I am still figuring out if the reason I didn’t make time for this before. Is it because I didn’t love me enough to give myself that time to so

Thank you to everyone who stopped by my first Bi-monthly Moon Sale last week. I hope your purchases bring you much empowerment in the weeks and months to come! Yesterday was the New Moon we were planning for. Time to set those intentions for what we want to grow and bring into our lives! Remember, the message I got for this month is time to love ourselves a little bit more. One way this can present itself is in looking ahead to what it is we really, deeply, madly want for

Well, another BeadFest is in the books! It is always a whirlwind of preparations and endless bead making, that culminates in the coming together of friends from all over the country / world and the connection with the customers whom make it possible for me to do this for a living. I always come home exhausted, happy and with a full heart and this year was no different. It has been a tough, emotional year here for us and spending time with these friends filled my heart in wa

Sometimes life takes a turn you did not see coming. For the past year and a half, I have been on a journey. Actually, it’s the same journey I have been on my entire life, I guess I am just finally just seeing all the pieces fall into place. As you may have noticed this past year I have been a little less focused on my beads and jewelry and more focused on other areas of my life. This is not because I am leaving them behind, they are still very much my passion and first lov

My vision for this new blog, was to marry all aspects of my life together, and share it with you. My creations, my spiritual walk, my struggles and accomplishments. Two posts in, and here I am sharing one of my biggest struggles. I truly hope that through sharing my raw life with you all, that we can all learn. I hope you guys feel free to comment and share your stories and wisdom here as well. (Current state of my studio and I have been avoiding it like the Plague! ) I

Wisdom is everywhere. Magic is everywhere. Remember how miraculous everything seemed when we were young? Before we had to rationalize and categorize everything? I am trying to allow myself that again. I am allowing myself time to breathe in mystery. I hear wisdom of the world. When we do this, we begin to see magic and miracles in everything, and it connects us. If you know me, you know I have a DEEP passion for music. I am not musical myself, unless you catch me sing
