It’s tempting to hold back—especially when being seen has meant being misunderstood. But we aren’t meant to live as spectators. My work exists to invite people back into relationship with life: through meditation, tarot, art, and writing experiences that hold space for connection. Each offering is a small gesture toward re-entry. When we begin to show up, others do too. And that’s how it happens: we co-create something better, together.

Welcome back. This month, I’m reflecting on what happens when the tools we write with become part of the process itself. I’ve also got two tarot spreads to share—one on claiming ground, one on giving it—and we’ll be gathering later this week to read one of them together. 🌞 Guided Meditation on the Sun Card — Monday, July 7 at 8pm (ET) We'll be gathering tonight to meditate on The Sun tarot card. After this session, there are only two meditations left—Judgement and The World—and we’ll have completed all 78 cards together. If you’ve been with me since the beginning, or joined along the way, or quietly followed the journey in your own way—thank you! This feels like a deep milestone. You’re welcome to join this final stretch, whether you’ve come to one meditation or seventy-five. New on the blog.I made it through the first year of my MFA continuing to journal and then searching my journals for poems to type manually when needed for a class. This felt like making art objects with words.These were like mono-prints made of language. My favorite thing was coming across these after forgetting I’d made them. If you’ve ever taken a long walk and run into your indoor cat along the way and immediately assumed it wasn’t your cat because your cat was definitely at home—you’ll know what it felt like to come across your forgot-you-wrote-it typewriter poem.

Hello May! As last month's work with the Ace of Wands drew to a close with our tarot writing workshop, we noticed that seed of fire echoed in a powerful display of Major Arcana cards. If you're unfamiliar with the tarot or still finding your way into it, simply letting the names of these cards wash over you can help you begin to sense their energies. The Chariot, Death, The Hanged Man, and The Wheel of Fortune all made multiple appearances—echoing the change, tension, and uncertainty many of...
Hello April! As spring settles into Philadelphia, cherry blossoms bloom alongside charged conversations about community, justice, and what it means to belong. Across the city, the country, and the world, people are organizing, planting, protesting, gathering, and creating. There’s a collective sense that we’re being called to nurture something new—not only within ourselves, but in the structures and relationships that shape our daily lives. This month’s tarot spread speaks directly to that...
