2023 | exploring, restoring, regenerating

2023 has exceeded all expectations and showered me with unimaginable generosity. As it draws to a close this Advent Season, there is much stacked up under the gift tree. 

Over the course of a lifetime, several bedrock beliefs have been debunked and we are better informed now. Close friends or strangers, folks we have known forever or only just met have been here to surround, support, and sustain me. Not just in times of trouble but to rally through challenges and celebrate successes together - a world wide village that empowers me.

Is a woman’s place in the home? That no longer seems the obvious option. At home or on the road, near or far - a woman's place is hers to seek and build - any place, any way. Advancing into chosen territory - independent and free, unblocked and unburdened. 

Each time our understanding of human nature becomes more expansive, we all become freer to live our best and most authentic lives. In the enlightened world we envision, every child will understand that living independently is a life path that can be truly joyful and fulfilling.
