My life just exploded, and I trust all the pieces are falling together perfectly! If you have wondered where I've been hiding- my socials and content of almost 20 years have been unexpectedly deleted. Every. Single. Piece. Of. Content. My life's work. My community. Where most would wobble, I see possibility, a clean canvas, a future epic story to tell. I feel more certain than ever this is happening FOR me- certainty beyond logic. That's the vibe we move from.
