Collaboration: What it means to show up

Thursday // July 24 // 2014

A concept that’s not often talked about, but was one of the biggest turning points in my blogging journey is the idea of deciding to show up; showing up for myself, my truth and for something that I would love to be doing. Showing up can often involve some fear, but it is one of the most exciting, stretching things you can do for yourself and those around you (and can actually be fun).

My friend Nickie Linaire recently reached out to pass along a collaborative initiative to shine a light on what it means to show up. This collaboration is here to serve as an open dialogue around how it’s possible to acknowledge the fear, and show up for yourself and doing what you love anyway.

Tick. Tick. What is this thing?

There was going to be passionate, world-changing speakers, a network of like-minded people and it was going to be in California… it literally felt like I had just found the Coachella for young people who want to create good in the world. I had to know who was behind it, and that’s what I did.

Think For The Life You Love

Tuesday // July 8 // 2014

When I was in University my best friend would always say, “Dress for the job you want.” Well I was living in America and the job that I wanted was in Australia. Wearing converse and a swimsuit was, still is, how I felt comfortable but I knew what she meant. If I embodied the energy of what I want in my current situation, I would bring what I wanted into my life.
