Early fall dump 🍇🌹🍂
Last year to this year around this time feels really different. Colors are a bit brighter. Textures deeper, scents richer. When I slow down and really try I can see the earth breathe again.
And there’s been no big external change this time. Just the daily, hourly, moment by moment recalibration to acceptance.
From acceptance breeds unconditional love.
For the people, places, things all around me.
There is no where, no there, to get to. Just acceptance of here.
Here with my family on our first vaca since HHI ~2011?! 🏔️🫂
Here with new opportunities to spread my message & heart 🗣️💕 and receive others 🙏
Here with my inner child 🧒
Here with resilient coworkers in the height of (now quite precedented) uncertainty.
Here with my 🐈🐈⬛ babies to hold and be held.
Here with my love & chosen family and music that heals our souls and cells 🧬
Here with the mirror🪞of change and challenge to be even more fully me, each day.
A call to come forth in brave humility. I don’t have the answers.
And yet, here I am.
And here, is the most perfect place to be 🫶
Welcome to my dream space!!! 🦚
Thank you for being here - I look forward to having you on this journey.
The name DJ DAYDR34M came to me… in a daydream 💭 While listening to the Grateful Dead’s “Sugar Magnolia/Sunshine Daydream,” I sang it out loud to the tune of the song and so it was.
It represents the atmosphere I aspire to create through my music - one of endless possibility.
I’m a numbers / math nerd 🤓 and 34 was Dad’s & my own lucky number in sports.
This is a space for engagement. I look forward to creating in community, for the world 🌎
My first song comes out 1/30!! Stay tuned to pre save 🙏
⛺️ Let’s take this… to 🌊 Playa Viva!!! 🌴
Last fall I had the unreal opportunity to become a part of the @convergence.wellness.campout community, thanks to @bryantwood and @heard_mama .
NOW, I have the honor of co-facilitating again at beautiful Playa Viva in Mexico! 🇲🇽
We’re still looking for a few special individuals to join us March 28th - April 4th for a week of sunshine, movement, nervous system reset, connection, play, music, + life & business coaching and much more (also, daily baby turtle releases on the beach 😭🐢)
👉THIS IS FOR YOU IF:
You set goals for the new year but one month in you’re feeling stuck or stressed.
You’re missing socialization and IRL community (due to work from home, living in a very cold climate, and/or life transitions).
You know you want to prioritize your own health and wellness but have continued putting others first.
You desire MORE for yourself. Even if you’re not sure what that “more” looks like just yet.
You simply feel a little spark while reading this.
Follow. That. Feeling! 🙌
The link for more info is in my linktree - DM or comment to chat.

Celebrated the 5th birthday of these sweet angels 🐈⬛🐈
I did say to the universe in 2021 that I didn’t want “boring” cats…. And God delivered the most un-boring angel-devils to my doorstep! 😇
In all of the change that these years have brought, their unconditional love has been a constant.
When I look back on these photos I’m filled with the same gratitude I have had for them in each moment of joy, laughter, and becoming, as well as sorrow, breaking, confusion and everything in between.
They teach me more about love, patience, grace and play every single day.
They have loved and been loved by many in their short time! And if you’ve met them, you know they leave quite the first impression 🙃
I could not love you more, Tortie and Grey!!!! Happy birthday sweet babies 🐱🐱🧁🧁
Think about a time when you wanted to give up.
What was a day like?
Perhaps fearful in the morning and lonely in the evening and unfulfilled in the moments between.
Maybe even a time when you saw the light vanish from your eyes and face.
Be present with that version and those moments.
If that time is now, be present with this version and these moments.
🫶
Then, if you thought of a time in the past, think of a time - even one moment - after the challenging period that made it all worth it.
When you felt YOU again.
When the colors were bright, sounds alive, and breath full.
Feel that moment. Expand your body through a big breath to hold the immense gratitude for the past you who stayed.
If the challenging time is now, can you trust beyond logic that this is temporary.
That you’re closer than you even know.
The fact that you’re here is evidence that you’re meant to be here, in these precise circumstances.
Be in complete nonjudgment of how it is right now. And right now starts to feel a little lighter.
Try and try again to believe with every cell that you’re expanding to hold the contrast on both sides.
There will be another sunset. Another dance. Another song. Another *insert your version of pure happiness here.*
It is simply inevitable. Remember.
The invitation is not to get “there,” but to find reverence, acceptance and love for every texture of life, here.

I got to share my play & inner child workshop last week on the retreat.
We did the practice of writing letters to our inner child, expressing gratitude and compassion and giving them what they might need from our adult selves.
But perhaps the more impactful letter is always the one from the child to the adult self.
Our inner children were so authentic and comical in their letters. They don’t understand us in our frantic existential ways, they just remind us of who we are.
In this first clip - quite recent - I remember wanting to capture the moment of sunken eyes, broken out face and belting a sad song with all I had. Not to use as a “before” shot, rather to remember the choice I made, to sing and cry and feel.
To call on the little baddie in the second clip who would’ve wanted me to.
It can be so challenging in the moment, know that when you feel as though you’ve gotten lost, you’re not alone.
In the next moment of despair, lack, negative self talk - what would little you say. They be knowing.

I’ve written shells of songs, poetry, voice note hums of tunes that I couldn’t wait to make…
And yet the first song I’m putting out is not one of them. Because inspiration comes when inspiration comes, in this case a conversation with a best friend. 🫂🌊
🔐 PRE-SAVE for Spotify link is in my bio!!! 🔐
