I’m a Daughter of Mother Earth.

Say ‘Fuck It’ to Naysayers, and Make Your Own Decisions.

Earlier in life, I didn't even realize that other people totally influenced my decisions. As you can imagine, they weren't always optimal for me. I suffered.

Are You Aware of Your Empath Triggers?

Blessed Be the (R)Evolution of Your Truth: A Love Letter to the Priestess of Soul.

No more do we need tiresome, diluted, one-size-fits-all, static verses. Tell me of your joy right now, in this moment. Tell me of your agony, your challenges, and your deep-seated pain. Tell me, woman, tell me now how we can hold each other up today -- not tomorrow, but today.
