Short and sweet …
A significant life lesson has been learning to let go of ‘stuff’ of ‘things’ that don’t serve my higher self. This includes any form of toxic relationships, of other people’s projections, and vitriol. I learned to choose self-respect and courage.

Describe a positive thing a family member has done for you. I’m the 8th child of ten children. My immediate family served as an almost complete microcosm of society.

Funnily enough…
What book could you read over and over again? To be perfectly honest, I’m not much into rereading fictional prose. I’m much more likely to reread works of poetry and non-fiction academic books and journals .

Ethereal being.
If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why? I’d be a mishmash of the ethereal healer archetype. My character would live amongst the primordial forests and waterways, deep in a wooded area. I’d be highly skilled in the healing arts, with an unparalleled knowledge of plants, herbs…
