I was born in High River,
grew up in Nanton,
and Medicine Hat feels like
my hometown.
Though I’ll admit
to hating them for a long time,
the prairies
is in my blood.
But . . . .
so is wandering,
exploring and
experiencing
somewhere new.
Exposing myself
to all the
wisdom,
abundance and
expansion
that nature has to offer.
When I left the prairies
as my home base
I knew it was time.
Yet, it was more difficult
than I expected,
and I’ve discovered
that I was more attached
then I knew.
This latest visit
has helped me realize . . .
I’ll always return
to the prairies -
it holds my beginnings -
but
I’m here
in this existence
to 𝙀 𝙓 𝙋 𝘼 𝙉 𝘿
and expansion
for me right now
means
exploring,
wandering,
experiencing.
Staying was comfortable and familiar,
and this is the path for some.
There is true 𝗣𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥 in staying.
AND there is also true 𝗣𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥 in
wandering and
intentionally stepping into
the 𝚕𝚒𝚖𝚒𝚗𝚊𝚕 𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌𝚎
not always knowing
what’s next.
My ancestors were wanderers
and for now
this is the space
I’m meant to be in and
the 𝗣𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥 I’m meant to explore.
Know that your path is yours alone!
It doesn’t 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 need to
look or
feel or
be like
anyone else’s!
You 𝐍𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 need
permission or
acceptance or
validation
from ANYONE but 𝐘𝐎𝐔!
Wishing you well always
and sending you love
as you journey
on 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 own path!
✨💖✨

Travel is such a great way
to be forced to face your “stuff”
No matter how amazing
anyone’s life looks on the outside,
we are all dealing
with something
whether we interpret it to be
big or small,
tragic or light,
better or worse
than another.
I share a lot
about the ✨magic✨
I find along the way,
especially in
the unexpected,
the mundane,
the quiet and alone moments
not because I want to brush
over the shadows and the pain,
but because I feel like the world
likes to constantly and consistently tell us
all that is wrong.
Know that the happiness and ✨magic✨I share
is genuine.
I know the energy
I naturally radiate
and how my smile melts
resistance and barriers.
But also know
that in the background there is work.
My own personal “stuff”
and travels this far have included
loneliness, guilt, shame, frustration, worthiness, credit cards randomly cancelled, things I held precious now broken, etc.
Maybe I need to write about that.
Maybe knowing that part of travel
is beneficial?
Either way,
I know ✨magic✨
Is more easily seen
by doing the internal work.
So off to a retreat I go!
When I return,
I’ll share all the ✨magic✨
I’ve experienced so far
in Northern Thailand.
(and no this pic isn’t where I’ll be staying - though if you know me, you know it COULD be 😆 - but simply a “taste” of the ✨magic✨ I’ll later share)
In the meantime,
my wish for you is
to see,
to internally capture,
and know ✨magic✨
… no matter how big or small …
surrounds you
always!
✨💖✨

𝘼 𝙎𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙮 𝙤𝙛 𝙎𝙤𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙈𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙖 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣
I don’t think I’m the only one
who has a love-hate relationship
with social media!
However, yesterday
I was reminded how
it can be a cool tool for connection.
This story starts a few years ago
during one of my first visits to Chiang Mai
(this is a city that keeps calling me back,
so I can’t tell you which time this was)
I’ve had MANY ✨𝖒𝖆𝖌𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖑✨ moments
in Thailand, 🇹🇭 and
one of the most profound
was the experience I had
staying in a temple
a few hours outside of Bangkok
with monks
in the days leading up to
Loy Krathong.
I thought this experience
would stay solely in my mind
along with some of the pics
that were taken and stories
I sometimes reminisce about
with people who I shared
this experience with.
But when I went to end that trip,
I spent a few days in Chiang Mai.
And it was at that time,
in the night market,
when I saw the feelings
of my experience
splashed out
in vibrant and intentional colours
onto the canvas of a painting.
I bought it immediately
along with some pictures and postcards
as I could feel
the life and vibrance
of Thailand
in this artist’s work.
I started following their page,
and they followed me back.
And over the years
we’ve commented
on each other’s posts.
In the year’s since,
they moved from the night market,
and created their own gallery space,
and I vowed
that someday,
I would visit.
Yesterday was the day!
And the minute I set foot in the gallery,
I was recognized right away!
Unfortunately, I missed Kaew,
but it was so nice
to connect with her
biz partner
live,
in real time!
Thank you for welcoming me
into your space
You should both be so proud,
it’s a beautiful space!
And if any of my friends
find themselves in Chiang Mai,
miss their time in Thailand,
or are curious about Thai life,
follow and/or visit their gallery,
you just might get the opportunity
to connect someday!
btw the postcard pic I bought the other day is similar to the painting I bought years ago (she couldn’t remember what I brought home) … I wonder who’s getting it in the mail?! 😜

Remember how I mentioned I have some of my writing featured in a book? Well, today I’m also featured in their magazine!
Check out my feature along with a number of other inspirational Canadians that I have the honour of sharing that space with at 𝕙𝕥𝕥𝕡𝕤://𝕗𝕣𝕖𝕤𝕙𝕞𝕒𝕘.𝕔𝕒/𝕔𝕒𝕥𝕖𝕘𝕠𝕣𝕪/𝕡𝕦𝕣𝕤𝕦𝕚𝕥-𝟛𝟞𝟝-𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟚/
And, if you haven’t yet gotten your copy of the book 𝕡𝕦𝕣𝕤𝕦𝕚𝕥:𝟛𝟞𝟝, it’s available on 𝗔𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗼𝗻 or I have a few copies still available that I can even personalize for you (but you’ll have to wait until I come home from Asia first! 😆)

This channeled message
is for me, but
perhaps
it may resonate
with you too …
……
You are worthy
𝓝𝓞𝓦
to do what lights you up,
to be where you feel most alive,
to receive what’s lovingly offered,
to have the experiences you want,
to feel 𝓙𝓞𝓨 in this moment.

no matter what!
at all times!
I’ve been leaning into
these ideas
for months,
but I’ve been “trying”
to play solely
a mental game.
I thought
working on my mind
would be
𝐓𝐇𝐄 key.
But being here now,
I’m starting to realize that
though it’s a big part of the puzzle,
my body and energy
𝐌𝐔𝐒𝐓 also be involved.
So here today,
𝐼 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓃𝓀 𝓌𝑜𝓇𝓉𝒽𝓎,
𝐼 𝒻𝑒𝑒𝓁 𝓌𝑜𝓇𝓉𝒽𝓎,
𝐼 𝓇𝒶𝒹𝒾𝒶𝓉𝑒 𝓌𝑜𝓇𝓉𝒽𝓎
and living out this latest adventure
simply proves
𝓘 𝓐𝓜 𝔀𝓸𝓻𝓽𝓱𝔂

and

I 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 you are too!

Happy Thursday friends ✨💖✨

“I’m leaving
on a jet plane,
don’t know
when I’ll be back again”
Except . . . .
I already left,
and it’s true
that I have no plans just yet
for when I’m coming back.
And the one thing
I noticed right away
when landing somewhere new
is that what I’m most craving right now is …
𝕊 ℙ 𝔸 ℂ 𝔼
(which is ironic
given I’m currently in a big city)
I feel honoured and excited
for the clients
I just finished working with
and some things happening
in the background,
but noticed that
my mind is tired,
my inspiration is waiting for a pause,
and I simply crave space
to 𝐁𝐄.
So I’m giving myself permission
to do just that.
To post when and if I feel inspired,
to go back to clients when I return
and to pick back up after some
𝕊 ℙ 𝔸 ℂ 𝔼
because I choose to believe
that I KNOW what is right for me
at any given moment,
and I love myself enough
to do exactly that!
Here’s to trusting and loving ourselves exactly as we are friends!! ✨💖✨

𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲'𝐬 𝐖𝐢𝐬𝐝𝐨𝐦
There’s a poem
that has followed me
that comes back
into my awareness
now and again.
This poem by Christopher Logue
goes like this:
𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙙𝙜𝙚.
𝙒𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡.
𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙙𝙜𝙚.
𝙄𝙩’𝙨 𝙩𝙤𝙤 𝙝𝙞𝙜𝙝!
𝘾𝙊𝙈𝙀 𝙏𝙊 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙀𝘿𝙂𝙀!
𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙘𝙖𝙢𝙚,
𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙪𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙,
𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙛𝙡𝙚𝙬.
Lately I’ve been reflecting
on the edges
I’ve come to
at various points.
How often
I had expectations
of when exactly
I SHOULD fly.
How often
I felt pressure
to “get to the edge” faster,
to do things a certain way,
to mimic someone else’s path.
This time I’m experimenting with
MY own way,
MY own timing,
MY own path.
Because there’s never too slow
and there’s never too late
to get to the edge
in our own damn way!
Today consider this . . . .
