I offer coaching for creatives. I can help if you feel stuck, lost, or overwhelmed.

You and I will work together to articulate your purpose, find your path, and take one step at a time until you’re up and running without me.

This giant statue of Sakyamuni Buddha sits on top of the roof of the Fo Guang Shan Main Hall in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.⁠⁠

Feeling a little stretched when it comes to black and white illustration with no hatching or stippling, but I’m really proud of how this turned out.⁠⁠

When life gives you lemons (and other citrus), you draw something. That’s my version at least…⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Swipe ➡️ for a more detailed look at the stippling (using dots to shade).⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The more I draw, the more I realize how much I like the repetitiveness of shading and coloring an image… and how much I like repetition in general. It soothes me.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
And given what has happened over the last couple of years, a little soothing is just what I (we!) need.⁠⁠

The prompt today is “pressure,” and outside of drawing a pressure cooker, this is all I could think of—a childhood and adolescence filled with pressure: the pressure to achieve at the highest possible level. ⁠
⁠
It made me great at getting things done, not so great at resting. I believed that I needed to earn the right to rest. (I still struggle with resting, even when it’s clear I need it.)⁠
⁠
This is a portrait of how I pictured myself to be as a young girl: serious, focused. When I grew up, I honestly didn’t know what I considered to be “fun.”⁠

Most of the time, this is how a climb ends for me.

I flail and fail… a lot. What I love most about climbing is that it teaches me to get back up, to try again, and to get real comfy failing in public.

My most memorable climbing moments have been with friends who have taken falls with me and tried silly, unreasonable beta with me.

Here’s to the years of falling on our butts together! Without you, I would never have kept coming back for more.

There are days when you feel like you’re floating. You’re light. Everything just goes.

This was not one of those days.

I had to remind myself: “What your performance looks like to other people doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters is what you think of it.”

This one mattered a lot to me. I didn’t think it would go, but I tried anyway.

I gave it my all, and I’m damn proud of that.

Experiencing shame (and fear) has been a huge struggle for me for most of my life. Breaking it down like this really drives home how destructive it is for me. It’s also a wonderful reminder of how far I’ve come.

Kindness, generosity, and love have helped me tremendously in letting go of shame and fear. (Of course, they aren’t completely gone and they lurk... waiting to pounce, but there are more good days than bad ones.)

Stay kind. Love generously. We’re all human, doing the best we can. ❤️

Doing things we’re bad at never just magically gets better. Everyone struggles with it, and the only people who get better and do better are the ones who survive the struggle.

The struggle is real, but it won’t be forever.

Just riding the waves and breathing. What about you?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I grew up in Arizona: in the desert. Any large body of water was probably man-made.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
When I had the chance to visit Newport Beach, I fell in love with the ocean. The way the tide comes in to kiss your toes. The way the sand welcomes you in. The way the waves sound as they rise and fall.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
After being more or less locked in my apartment four stories up, I find myself missing the ocean.⁠⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀

A gentle reminder for you and, especially, for me: an audience of one is a wonderful place to re-connect to ourselves.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
If you do nothing else, just breathe.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
In and out.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Keep going. You got this!⁠⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀

I've been a little MIA. I've been looking, exploring, wandering. ⠀
⠀
I forgot that I once considered myself an artist. I forgot that I once felt light and unencumbered. I forgot I once prioritized my own joy and fun. ⠀
⠀
What did you leave behind in the hustle and bustle of "growing up?"⠀

One of the most widely-accepted nuggets of wisdom in the design world comes from Jared Spool: "Good design, when it’s done well, becomes invisible."⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Unfortunately, this means it's sometimes hard to justify hiring a designer, because no one's really sure what we do!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I'm sharing a quick demonstration on how a designer might treat the same information in two different ways. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
These are inspired by one of my favorite design educators, , whose book Thinking with Type is my go-to design book recommendation.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Leave a comment or DM me if this was interesting. I'm planning on building out a few more examples of how design can impact your yoga offerings, and would love your feedback!⁠⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀
