Trying out a new lighting set up for my laptop and shooting quick videos. No filter, no editing 💚💜

I've been quietly in the PGA (Producer's Guild) for a while now. I think producing is a lot like project manager or a traffic conductor - you help move everything along and deal with the accidents as they happen. Sometimes it's also a relief to *not* be talent or on camera too!

The Fire Horse year is full of restless, bold & TRANSFORMATIVE energy. It only comes around every 60 years, and the next one arrives in 2026. Historically, these years bring big cultural shifts, technological leaps, and a collective sense of “something is changing.”

I've been swimming in the seas of sadness but finally coming up for a breath of fresh air

in case you need to hear this you are loved you are whole you are seen

you are worthy

Deleted TikTok off my phone. Anyone else?

it's okay if you're not okay especially if you live in the US make your life in the US have friends & family & neighbors & community & small businesses & vulnerable folks in the US

last week personally was a super bad mental health week and as I was drowning I tried to give myself grace to go under the surface of the waves into the deep may you also give yourself grace to not always swim but survive in turbulent waters

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. One who lives life fully is prepared to die at any time. ~ Edward Abbey

The joy of being in SF

I had a 10 yr old dog with arthritis walk up and slowly rest her big body against my leg and a super cute baby girl with pigtails squeal and grab my other leg and yes I am having a good day 😊😊😊

Back in the Bay Area for a few days and I feel my heart unfolding. This is where I grew up and grew into myself 💚🫰🏼

New year, first flight 🌸

It's Jan 15th, I have a backlog of videos to create but I'm exhausted and feeling the heaviness of the world giving myself space to find my voice again

find your voice in the silent part of your heart

Folks over 30 - it's not too late to start - it's not too late to restart - it's not too late to find your purpose - it's not too late to find your partner - it's not too late to find your friends - it's not too late to find yourself.

If you're in San Francisco, stop by this Friday to my amazing book event or buy a book that goes to the local library! luma.com/mcbl85j2
