Creating a Self-Portrait in Glacier Bay

Creating a Self-Portrait in Glacier Bay

It was the trip of a lifetime. One year ago I hosted an artist retreat in France, and the group that came together fell in plutonic, blissful love.

Promoting Passion Week 49: Overcoming Anxiety

15 years ago. I was going into middle school. I wanted to throw up every single morning. 10 years ago. I was picking out colleges. I intentionally looked at schools that had private housing so I didn’t have to room with someone. 5 years ago. I was just about to start my business and decided not to deal with clients for fear of puking all over them. Today. Still feel a little queasy, but doing much better. Let’s talk about…
