…As time has gone on in my process; not just in creating this site but since leaving the workforce in 2020; I was still trying to label myself. “I’m a community advocate.” “Healer” “Organizer.” The list was never ending and it also would depend on who I was talking to. And then one day in 2021, I started hearing “personal brand.” But what even is a personal brand by “human language?” (Sidebar: I intuitively hear things that I am not completely aware of and that’s when the research begins to grasp it as a concept in language that is easier to articulate.)

So 🤔 a personal brand? I liked it! But I wasn’t finding anything that really stuck with me cognitively. It really just felt like, “I am the brand!” “I’m just me. Doing all the things I do.”

Fast forward to January 2024 (yes! 3 years later) and I am ready to “collaborate” with a web designer. Initially all I knew is that I wanted a website that was my name that takes the viewer on a journey through portals of my personality. Since 2013 I had been using my social media pages to express different facets of myself, compartmentalizing the pieces of me that desperately needed to be heard. Honestly I have never felt safe to be ALL of myself anywhere. Until now…

This website is my safe space. But I am also hopeful that I can create a digital community where more “quiet, contemplative hermits” feel seen, heard, validated & given the space to heal themselves with a guide.

I alwaze say, “just because I’m an introvert doesn’t mean I want to be alone all the time.” Just ready to spread my wings, expand my reach and hopefully help others along the way as we continue our individual journeys.

Was this a traditional about page? Nah. But nothing I do is traditional. We flow with it and see where it takes us…
