Simple Living, Creativity, Community and Change I’ve been sitting with this post for a while, wondering how to share some deeply personal news about what’s currently happening in my life. I’m in the middle of a huge change, which feels surreal—like a dream coming true. But there’s so much more to it than just the excitement of starting fresh. This change is filled with a lot of mixed emotions, and if I’m being honest, some grief. How I’ve gotten here involves burnout, tough decisions, and a lot of letting go. I’ve recently revamped this blog around the themes of Simple Living , Creativity , and Community , and now, in the middle of this big transition, these values are taking on even greater significance. This shift is forcing me to declutter, purge, and focus on only the most essential things from my old life. It’s all part of the simplicity I’ve been striving for, but it also feels bittersweet—like closing a chapter I’m not entirely ready to end. Mural " A New Dawn ": Art b
