Braveheart, I choose to be 👩🏻💻 online because I want to offer ideas 💡 about living 🪶 [softer] + [being curious], offering options for compiling 📅 a dated, [visually expressive] chronicle of our [wild and precious lives].
- ❤️ I enjoy sharing how I creatively chronicle my life via 🌈color, ✂️ collaged words & bits of paper 📑 guided by seasonal themes and word prompts (within kindred communities).
- 💁🏻♀️ Also, I want you to know that putting myself out here 🚫 isn’t always an easy choice 🙈 for me—but here I am. 😊
✅ I just concluded my second 100-Day Project with a theme of: [benevolence, wonderful and meaning]. And today (September 1) begins a third 100-Day Project for me, focused on my notes and realizations about 🔔 [freedom].
- Day 1/100 in honor of Wendell Berry 🌳🌙
☑️ I am currently switching up how I host online support offerings. This will include expanding support for my Ko-fi patrons. And I would love for {you} to join in, Braveheart! 💕
- Slow is fast enough 🐌 when it comes to our progress.
- Being active in a community 💞 provides support and helps us to remember to trust our pace and keeps us from giving up on what matters most to us.
👩🏻💻 Within the small groups I host, we focus on the comfort of [fostering trust], ongoing [support and inspiration], in addition to [sharing practical ideas] about our right brain planning practices.
🫂member comments and testimonials:
motivation to create | warm & welcoming | “I was surprised to feel so relaxed and seen…” | open and authentic | “I have learned to simply resume (without shame)…” | stronger together
❤️ My focus is to foster a safe space—especially for anyone who has been told they are either not enough or that they are too much (🙋🏻♀️)—because I have learned: ❤️🩹 Life can get better, Braveheart.
I am currently rearranging priorities for my time and energies (with some degree of trial and error). 🙃
Braveheart, as the summer of 2026 concludes, I am crossing over a new 🚪 threshold with my creative work—and I couldn’t be more pleased or excited! 🥳🙌
Basically, more time in-community. 🪄👩🏻💻📚📓😊💓 (And I hope you will join me!) 💕
The principal goal of Right Brain Planner is to foster a daily-ish practice of [being present] + [seeing and evaluating] the details of our living by compiling a visual chronicle as a safe place to check in with ourselves. 💖
- Examples of how to pause + check in with ourselves: copy a quotation from something you are reading; snap a photo of the ☁️💙☁️ sky while noticing its details; pull an oracle 🃏 card and reflect on its meaning within your life; jot notes about your day, your 🪄 wishes and/or your 🚨 vents; a quick 📝 chronicle of the moon phases and weather on a monthly 📆 calendar; a one-line journal … there are lots of possibilities, Braveheart. 😊
The focus in developing a right brain planning practice is to see our living as ongoing—a timeline [days within years; years within a lifetime].
- To resist the urge to allow a “bad day” or a “bad week” to become a filter—a lens—that limits our ability to hope and live differently.
- Easing away from a performance-based valuation of self-worth; cycling like the moon and exploring so-called irregularity (stops and starts) as a cycle of wholeness.
Right brain planning is an opportunity to allow our journals to be our “planners”—elevating expression and desires over expectations and shoulds.
Thank you kindly for your presence here.
I appreciate your interest and support.
~love & good wishes~
