Leaps & Bounds in 2024, completed Annual Review, declarations for 2025
|
Hello beautiful, 2024 quantum leaps in store into creativity joy + love galore! That’s the poem I shared when I declared my Word of the Year and practices to make it so. Now how did it go? Negativity bias is real, and I well remember the challenges and struggles I faced last year. Thankfully, I take fuller and more objective stock of my declarations and results for the year as well as the events, highlights and accomplishments I have recorded along the way. In the end, I saw growth all over and for that I am very grateful! On top of that, I'm grateful to finally be complete with my annual review process, moving on to share my 2025 Word of the Year in a video below, with that topic and new projects coming next: Read my Leaps and Bounds in 2024 - Reflecting on a Year's Highs & Lows blog article here My other creations, recommendations, and questions for you are: Viewing:

Hello beautiful, Now that Halloween and All Saint's Day have passed, we still celebrate cherished traditions and think of our beloved dead as the Holidays approach, with the full Beaver Moon on the 5th (according to the BBC, "The second of three consecutive supermoons of 2025 will coincide with Bonfire Night on Wednesday... 5 November. It will be the largest and brightest Moon this year."), Transgender Day of Remembrance on the 20th, and American Thanksgiving on the 27th. Of particular...
Hello beautiful, Happy October, "Spooky Season," and the beginning of Quarter 4, bringing even more colorful leaves to Cologne and ballet dancing and teaching into my schedule! Though Germany celebrates their Unity Day, der Tag der Deutschen Einheit, this Friday the 3rd, I will still be dancing online and in-studio that day. There are many other holidays and remembrance observations in October, such as World Mental Health Day on the 10th, National Coming Out Day on the 11th, and Halloween on...
Hello beautiful, Happy almost Rosh Hashana to my Jewish beloveds, Autumn Equinox and season's transition to all. The people have spoken, and at least until the end of the year I am reducing to an approximately-monthly "digest" format email newsletter. Previously I've sent weekly love notes, but as teaching load increases this semester, I've decided to reshuffle priorities so that I'm able to show up with energy and presence (and hopefully prevent burnout and illness). Will be doing my best to...
