Sometimes even the people with the brightest lights need to recharge in the dark. I may not be in a cold place this winter but I’m doing a lot of inner work so I can blossom in my soul. Taking this time to calm my nervous system down and listen to what I want to shape the next chapter of my life into is the best gift I could give myself. Life is so surreal and I am really proud of how I’ve been showing up to have clearer boundaries lately with everyone including myself.

My sweet GG Rich, you have lit up my life since we connected under the Aurora sky. The universe conspired for us to come together and I am so happy it did. Nothing about our love is typical and that suits us to a T. We are growing and learning so much together, and I love how you make me want to step into my highest self to support our future together. Here is to continuing this next chapter as we explore what our future holds. It was a wonderful double birthday/valentines week and the festivities continue, I love our life together.

Thank you my dear for your endless love and teamwork, you truly love and appreciate me more than I have ever felt before. Thank you for the laughs, the adventures, the lessons, the squishes, and walking through the uncomfortable growth moments with curiosity and an open mind. Thank you for being a reflection to mirror where I need to soften and where I need to grow, and being humble enough to do the same. Thank you for being a best friend above anything else.

Every chapter of our lives is different and I am excited to cheer you on as you expand your horizons. Have the best time ever performing with one of your incredible bands , touring with the legendary mid March all over Vancouver Island!! So proud of you!! This year will be our best yet, I can feel it.

The way we have been the last few weeks gives me so much hope that we truly can create whatever life we want.

You are a wonderful person and it is an honour to blossom alongside you. I know we will make the future full of opportunities.

The FLYING PIGS have been UNLEASHED! It’s official fam, the inspiration is flying at you as we speak! I truly do hope some of this stuff inspires you to follow your dreams and believe in yourself.

I have changed the prices to include shipping (apparently I didn’t have a choice on that). I’ll be donating part of profits to charities and shelters around the world, part of my dream is to inspire as many people as possible. Thank you for helping me do this.

The book is available in 7 languages on Amazon, I wanted to be as inclusive as possible to all the children of the world.

I believe in you. Thank you for believing in me. Love you fam!

Please give me a review on Amazon if you haven’t already, it really makes a difference and helps a lot. Even a comment, like or share helps me get the message out there. Thank you all for helping me believe in myself and enjoy the awkwardness that is sharing my artwork on social media.

Link in comments below for both my website and Amazon.

FINALLY I’ve been waiting 3 YEARS to say this to you all! Ahhhh I haven’t been allowed to say this until now. It feels so good to be able to say with every fibre of my being, sincerely THANK YOU for saving me after the fire. You have literally changed my life in so many ways.

I’ve come a long way in my healing journey thanks to all of you. I wouldn’t be where I am without you.

Special shout out to the funk fam and those of you who came together to make the fundraiser happen for me. I was falling apart and you guys caught me. Tiziana Brandoline thank you for organizing the go fund me with Jasmine Wiley Lu, I don’t think I would have done it without you. Will Williamson you’re such a great friend and person, thank you for bringing the homies together to do the musical stream fundraiser. Together you guys showed me that I wasn’t alone, and gave me the courage to keep going. You guys made me feel loved by the community and helped give me hope when I was at breaking point. Big thanks to all the incredible talented musicians involved, I adore you all and am so grateful for your efforts and helping me dance through the dark times and melancholy that had me in a shell shocked strangle hold. Dunks, Gaff, Jake Dubs, Doyle, Dave Brandoline, Dave Walton, Burchill, X-ray ted, Farbsie, Vortoozo, and Rumpus who was there in spirit even though his internet failed him. I know many more of you would have joined if asked. I wouldn't have had the ability to let my shrivelled pride ask for any of this. It changed my life and gave me wings and strength in so many ways.

Thank you to this wonderful community for donating and sending me so much love and encouragement to keep going.

I hope I can repay the favour of inspiration and support with others in my lifetime.

This is literally why I believe anything is possible and wrote my book pigs really can fly.

You guys gave me the hope and knowledge that together we can do anything.

The hardest job in the world is being a mom, there is no time off. I have endless respect for the moms of this world that tirelessly and lovingly tend to their families. Every day I am constantly grateful for my own mom and the love she gave me and still continues to shine on me from a distance. Meeting little Nora to capture her sweetness with her mom served as a reminder of what a gift a loving mother is.
~ I love the composition of the first photo, it certainly tells the story of mothers.

This material world that we exist in seems so complex compared to the purity of loving souls coming into this world. At our core we are simple happy beings, its the constructs of society that trick us into stressing out about things beyond our control. Babies are little teachers here to remind us to be patient, slow down, and really allow loving joy into our hearts. Little Nora is such a sweet sprout and Im so glad I got to capture some of her cuteness with her mom.

08/27/2024

Seeing the world through a child's wondrous eyes, everything is interesting and beautiful. This daily dose of cuteness is your reminder to spend some time playing with your inner child today my friends! Meet this sweet little sprout named Nora, she is my littlest friend! She would like to remind you that we are started as little beings, and are just all trying to figure out this wild worlds chaotic flow, so be gentle on yourself.
~Nora's mom was so adorably happy, it was such a pleasure to photograph this sweet family in their time of endearing cuteness.
Which do you prefer Colour or Black and White?

Life is a series of plot twists, giggles and lessons. Thinking back to Guatemala I can honestly say that trip was a turning point for me in so many ways, and my life has changed so much since then. Ive grown into myself and have been embracing all my strengths as I plan for the short term and long term future, dreams will continue to come true and pigs will continue to fly and multiply.

Another day and another adventure, this weekend Im heading off to Pachena Bay to dance, frolic, do some nature therapy restoration and embrace life's wonders... with my fav adventure partner G.

Making every moment count sometimes looks like hustling, sometimes its savouring a sweet cuddle in the park, other times it looks like going traveling for some self healing. A while ago I went to Guatemala and replenished my soul and found many layers of sweetness and sweet-hearted souls. This was an intentional trip and not my usual style of infusing myself with nature, I was sincerely focused on opening my heart, calming my nervous system and writing my upcoming health book.

Life is a beautiful collage of moments and opportunities. Im so glad I jumped on this one and got to experience so many glimmers.

Violet ramblings. I hope this inspires someone in some way, but at the very least is nice to express. 💜
We may all be trapped in our bodies and trapped in time. Forced to move forward as we step in line. Take faith dear heart with your eye on the prize, a gentle breath and a deep sigh. This too shall pass so be grateful for all, the messy rainbow of emotions big and small. What is success without an exhausting challenging journey? What is light without shadow? When our life feels like it’s pulling us in all directions and holding us back from even the basics, is that not a natural pause for breath and reflection?
What is the goal? Does the trivialities matter? Is it worth being uncomfortable to achieve what our hearts are after?
If a wind blows and calls your name out of stagnation but you are unmoving is anyone to blame, or shall we dare to listen and dance through the harsh rain?
What is it that really matters?
On the precipice of an opportune cliff we have peeped for so long, shall we take the leap or is it too far gone?
A decade has passed and my existence persists, beautiful places call my name that I dearly miss but my soul has great plans that turn me in circles. Twirling around my mind while my body seems always a step behind, will I be able to do and see or will it be a shadow of myself in the mirror the future sees.
The future is bright as the now, as dewy eyed as the soft mornings lusts on the prowl. Pigs will fly, and hope will too. I gingerly dare and wistfully care.
✨
This thought train is brought to you by:
Feeling caught between the quiet moments and the chaos. My future dreams and present needs. My inner battle of pent up motivation, delight in life’s gifts and feeling trapped in my body constantly needing maintenance.
