Comments from video, I finally found my purpose at 61
"I’m 55 and have been searching for my purpose all my life, moving from job to job feeling lost and untethered and now being unemployed. I think the Universe sent me to this video to tell me to stop searching." @elam1111
“This is so beautiful. So many of us the world over are waking up! We are divine beings just as we are. There is nothing more to do, be, or have than that.” @2krandolph

The heart behind my work
For 25 years, I was a graphic designer and art director. When I lost my job at 56, I had to start over and figure out who I was without the title. Slow living, ikigai, and wabi sabi helped me find my way, and decluttering my home turned into decluttering my whole life. Now, at 62, I'm picking up the joy I set aside years ago, painting, and I'd love for you to come along.
