This is the beanstalk—where the beans talk.

Me on a day where everything made sense.

none of us are ok but it's gonna be ok :)

Warm welcomes to this space I'm carving out for myself to share what I'm feeling in this beautiful, terrifying, turbulent time. Aka life, lol….

I truly have no idea what is going on or what I am doing, but the big secret is that NOBODY DOES!!!!!

I'm turning 30! I'm confronting my chronic pain! I'm creating healthy boundaries! I'm embracing my fears and traumas and I'm writing about them without shame! I'm committed to cherishing every moment of life, even if it tends to involve lots of tears, existentialism and grief these days </3. Cause it also involves lots of magic, love, and gratitude.

So I figured it might make us all feel a little less lonely if I actually shared my thoughts versus hiding them all away in my journals on a shelf like little secret tombs [which they are so plz do not read them ;].

But forreal, we are all one and we are all experiencing the same emotions right now in some way or another. Plus we live in a society that is literally all made up and the points dont matter!!!

So we might as well talk about what's weighing on our hearts and free ourselves to actually be present and in our bodies for the time we are here.

So yeah, my intention is to share what I'm working through in my life journey. I see health as a one-million pointed star and I am reaching into each little point and mucking thru the yuck n weeding n tending n watering n planting new seeds with real intention and purpose. I plan to share where I'm at with managing the chronic pain I've been experiencing since I was 12. I am learning so much in trauma-based therapy and I've experienced first-hand the empowerment, connection and healing that comes from confidently sharing your story. I love meeting new people, capturing images to savor tiny moments and celebrating existence with the freaking gorginaaa humans I am blessed to share mine with.

And, of course, and most important, I am looking forward to showering you with all the love and encouragement that I am able to give, while also making sure my own cup is always full first. It is better for everyone that way!

After all, it really is a miracle that you're here at all.

Appreciate you for indulging in whatever this is or may become.

WE DEPEND ON EACH OTHER'S DREAMS COMING TRUE!! PLZ DO UR HOMEWORK AND DREAM!!

be well & be u,,bird

oh yeah and when I write, I like to use the nickname/pen name my nonno joe bestowed upon me, for it helps keep me grounded and provides a healthy distance from my private life.

PS. Many gratitudes and hugs to my friend Alex for lovingly crafting this website and taking this project from an idea in a word doc to a real thing. You are pure kindness!
