Showing up and shaking ass even in the hard moments. When it feels like the world is crumbling, creating art, grieving together, dancing together, and loving each other is medicine. My rebellion is to keep my heart open: a constant work in progress. I haven’t done a good job of being a solid community member recently. I tend to isolate and suffer in silence when i should rely on my people. Its easy to let the weight of the world and my own personal traumas dull my light and numb my spirit. I’m on a journey to retrieve parts of me that have been numbed out along the way.
I am learning to exist within the dualities and nuances of life. The redirections, the grief, the rebirths, and the love all at once.
Please lean on me. Lean on me so that I know I can lean on you.
I love you.

I am awful at remembering to video any of my performances so its always a joy when people come up to me after a show, wanting to send me the videos they get. This human wanted to get a slow mo video to dissect how I wasn’t getting burned. That’s the #1 question people ask : “how do you not get burned?”
And I need to come up with something funny to respond with.
From a performance at Foxys on JVD last year 🫶 I’ll be back soon, and leveled tf up.

✨ Reflections.
It’s been invigorating to land back in Chicago and soak up the summertime energy. The first FMJ of the season, followed by Fire Alchemy retreat in Michigan, left me feeling alive and stirred.

The contrast to my quiet, isolated island life is apparent —always a dance for my nervous system as it expands and contracts, adjusting to the added stimulation with each return to the city.

There’s also such a different energy performing for tourists who I likely won’t ever see again, versus sharing my art with my community, family and friends.

A continual lesson: it’s okay to show up messy. I don’t have to be healed, or have my art form perfected in order to share it. Fail forward. Be witnessed. Express myself. Create more than I consume.
