Self-awareness is the basis of my artistic practice.
- My journey to this place where I can consider myself an artist was intertwined with multiple challenges that led to self-discovery, healing and identifying my values.
Creating [writing & creating art and resources] from an authentic place means I honor my boundaries and intentions via daily self-accountability and acknowledging the necessary balance within my Life Quad.
- The meaning within my creative work is rooted in self-reflection and the kindred conversations I have within the creative communities I host.
Despite being someone who was raised to prioritize service to others over self-care and compassion, I found my way (and my voice) through art and creative expression.
You yearn to create—because creation is connection with the immortal and the divine.

Braveheart, thank you for your presence.
As as artist, I have been moving into a season of Less; the sometimes uncomfortable space of creating and ignoring algorithms.
Of negotiating “how to show up in a way that is generous and distinctive, and to refuse the bait that others take when they decide that feeding the algorithm” (Seth Godin) as I honor both my creative passion, but also my pace at this stage of my living.
Right Brain Planner is a collection of lunar + seasonal prompts and journal-planning ideas to encourage self-compassion and review, reflection and expression, discovery and healing.
Braveheart, we learn by doing: we discover details about ourselves through chronicled observation 👀✍️📔 because everything we experience is data. 📊
Data is value-neutral; it is neither “good’ or “bad”—it is merely information to use for our choices, intentions and conclusions. Remembering this helps us to live free from judgment and shoulds.
Thank you kindly for your presence here.
I appreciate your interest and support.
~love & good wishes~
❤️ Braveheart, as the Creator/Artist of Right Brain Planner I am ever-grateful to have the opportunity to share my creative work online + support other creators! 🎉 For almost 20 years I have had the privilege of sharing my art and writing about right brain planning while also hosting kindred 👭🏽💞👭 communities. ✨ I consider it an absolute delight to continue this portion of my creative work (even as I retire from full-time work).
This is possible, in part, by {you} and your presence here. But also because of the support of my Ko-fi patrons and the other member/subscriber communities I host (via their presence, input and paid subscriptions).
