When was the last time you sat next to a window on a rainy day and sipped tea for a ridiculously long and peaceful amount of time?

How many of us are comfortable sitting with our thoughts… letting them flow and fall out of our minds like the rain. Slow down, hear every drop 💧

My kids and I got into it about how many plants we have 🪴
Youngest started at a million because he had to water them.
Eldest went more conservative with 34.
I said 15 at most.
There are 31… but I neglect to see why this is an issue because I have three empty pots and repotting next weekend 🌱

Take the pictures, let yourself be in photos. Your life, body, and spirit are sacred.
10yrs ago I was 275lbs. I never let myself be in pictures. I regret it now because I don’t get to see her beyond this one.
Every version of you is a beautiful culmination and manifestation of your ancestors 🪶

- Biopsych
- Historiography
- Reincarnation and Rebirth

Been a hot minute since those days 📚 Three degrees later and still miss the classroom - as both student and prof!

Treated myself to pretty nails to cover up how short they are with boxing lately 🥊 and stoked to have a little post pump vein action 💪
Boxing with a new partner and my ego is boosted after she said she noticed how jacked I was at class last week. The. She proceeded to school me on the bag!

My community has a word for children that best translates to “Flower”
Children are the flowers of our culture, language, values, and directly connected to the lands that recognize our presence.
When a child under 6 speaks, the room goes silent, they have a direct connection to our ancestors 🌼

When you wake, have your coffee, and go about your day… look for the kind folks.
They have often seen rock bottom.
Those are your allies to align with. Your guides, angels, and protectors.
Don’t be fooled by the loud hateful ones that carry lies with no promise of tomorrow. Find the helpers 🙏🏻

As a kid on the nw coast we watched the birds for teachings. Pigeons, crows, ravens, starlings, eagles, robins, finches, chickadees, owls.
Raven trickery on the horizon, for good or bad.
Eagles - good luck and if they fly high, storm coming.
Owls - eyes open for a lesson or death coming.

I took a social media break for a year. My findings:
- I miss the 90s,
- SM is used to burn off excess energy,
- Folks don’t realize how transparent their hate is offering a window into their unfounded fears and anxieties preserved by wilful ignorance,
- I really miss the 90s

After the last two days, the losses close to home and watching one of my team members experience the most wretched and inhumane loss imaginable…
All I could do to get through this day was offer a smudge to my spirit and sit staring out the sunroom begging for strength. Praying for comfort 🙏🏻

I have so many American friends.
I fear for the lies being told by your leadership, I fear for the most vulnerable, I fear the world will forget the entire American population is not like what we are seeing in the news.
Lives are being irreparably torn apart from hate, misogyny, gaslighting, lies.

Where has humanity gone?
When did we stop looking out for one another and begin seeing others as a threat to safety? Whose safety?
My Elders always tell me hate runs dry faster than love because it burns hot and fast, quick to judgement and reactivity.
If you are hurting, I will walk with you 🙏🏻

Is it common to really begin disliking your own birthday and Christmas in your 40s?
I want quiet/peace, clean home, happy and healthy kids, no fuss, no cooking, good cake.
Yesterday was amazing, my family gave me the chill 42nd birthday love. Hope next year I don’t have to fight for chill 🎂

If you see someone on the street, not doing well… stop and offer something if you feel safe.
As a kid, my Gramma fell downtown in our small city, Prince Rupert. Broke her wrist and looked disoriented.
No one stopped to help her. I found her, bloody, broken wrists.
It takes 2 minutes.

My favourite thing about growing up Indigenous is automatically seeing the beauty or opportunity in something or an event. It’s a message… a teaching, whether we like it or not, we take meaning from it and let it guide us. Everything has a purpose, a reason, and a lesson.

I have a Saturday routine. Reading, tea, errands, gym, and occasionally a donair to treat myself.
I order the same donair and the same person always finishes my order with “cucumbers and pineapple as usual <insert my name>?”
Creature of habit to the end.

Camping with my kids this week. Had a beautiful yellow dragonfly find a peaceful spot on my hand next to my daisy ring.
Little girl at the beach:
“Mama! Look at the pretty lady with tattoos and her pet dragon-fwii”
😭
That was my Disney princess moment 👑

I’m surprising someone by making a ribbon skirt. Practicing to help my team with Ribbon skirt workshops in the fall as well.
Every time I hear the sewing machine, I think of my Dad. His upholstery shop was my summer camp as a kid.
I miss him 💜

Nothing is more powerful than an Indigenous woman who has remained grounded through a ten year long storm of loss, messy change, and starting over.
Always remember you are the children you ancestors prayed for. The reason they stood tall. You are the living memory of their lives 🪶
