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, School began again in Nordrhein-Westfalen this week, and I'm in a flurry of preparation to meet new and returning students and teach and learn exciting things this fall! I've included a couple of schedule updates for September below and will keep you in the loop on further developments as I am able. What role can "gently Socratic" philosophical inquiry play in the context of performing arts education? I consider myself fortunate to have had the honor of participating in Dr....
Hello beautiful, July was about high summer, brought a heat wave and then cool rain to Cologne, and kicked off my "Swashbuckling Summer" and "Splits this Season" series with glowing energy and creativity. This week I've got an article about last month and two new videos for you, a flip-through of the month of July in my Seasonal Bullet Journal Book with reflections, and Part 3 of the Splits this Summer video sequence.

Hello beautiful, Light as a feather, fluttering in springtime and summer, having had encounters with butterflies in just about every place I have been, I always feel blessed by their gentle presence.

My late ex mother in law Janine Kirkpatrick’s art faithfully depicting endangered butterflies I find particularly moving. Beloveds do come to mind as a...
