"Awakening to who I've always been" - the title of this collage literally just took my breath away.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is exactly what is happening as I gently step into teaching art online. Feels like this was what I was meant to do from the very beginning. Just had to wait until the Universe made it crystal clear that it was time to start.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It is most definitely time.
I am ready, and am having an absolute blast doing it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyone else feel like they are stepping into what they were meant to do? I would love to support you as we both step closer to our deepest heart's desire.

In honor of my beautiful mother, I'm posting a collage painting I created based on a picture of us both, one of the few memories I have of her holding me.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You see my mother was not your run of the mill mom.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
She was severely mentally ill, in and out of mental hospitals starting at age 16 until her death at 74. And, I loved her dearly.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Without conscious intention, she taught me the value of being mentally healthy, which is why I put a HUGE amount of daily energy into being grounded, balanced and joyful. I never deny sadness or stress when it arises, but rather fully feel what's coming up and heal the issues one by one.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Being mentally healthy was her greatest gift to me. I remember saying at her funeral that my mother was not the one I wanted, but was the one I needed to become the healthy woman I am.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
AND, I'm grateful everyday for what she taught me through example.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I would love to know the biggest lesson your mother taught you? Did she realize that she taught this to you?
________
This blessed collage painting is titled "You never walk alone", and that is exactly how I feel as I often feel my mother gently guiding me.
