Hi there - I’m 54 and a mom to a pre-teen, a writer and marketing/dev/comms consultant (after being recently let go from my job) focused on personal dev/growth, mindset and wellbeing/spirituality.

I've been on my spiritual/growth path for the past 8 years or so and have taken tons of training and done a lot of inner work through tools like meditation, breathwork, EFT, EMDR, NLP, etc. I'm definitely a work in progress!

I will never be perfect or enlightened; my focus is on showing up as my authentic self, having healthy boundaries, loving and giving to myself as much as I do others, and being more consistent in/deepening my wellness routines. I'm also working on more of a minimalistic lifestyle and letting go of all the things to numb/distract me from purpose, fulfillment and real connection. I've been a people pleaser and perfectionist most of my life, so unwinding from those wounds takes time, reflection and concentrated effort.

I'm looking for a LTR with someone who matches me energetically, emotionally and mentally. Confidence, a sense of self-worth and polarity are important. Someone who is looking and working on themselves and is willing to do that work in a committed, supportive and communicative container.

I care about politics (as a woman of color, it's personal), social justice, and equality. I love traveling (have criss-crossed the US twice, been to Asia, Europe, and Latin America) spending time with my son and my extended family, and helping my communities. I also like hiking, SUPing, musicals, culture, movies and the arts. Would like someone who is able and willing to travel, open to some spontaneity, and can hang with me, my son and my fam.

Self-reflection; identifying unhealthy patterns, where they come from, and working on them; awareness of a higher power within and without; understanding it's a journey, not a destination.

I’m mainly interested in memoir and biography right now, because that’s what I’m writing. Also enjoy fiction and poetry and books about writing. Fave books include Bird By Bird, The English Patient, The Four Agreements. Fave authors include Anne Lamott, Margaret Atwood, Lisa See, Steven Pressfield.

Traveling and writing, with the time, money and freedom to do so, while having a solid homebase.

I work w/one of my family members on a nonprofit she started to bridge the educational and mental health gaps for local under resourced elementary school kids. I work w/ another npo focused on kids’ mental health and have worked in nonprofits for local environmental causes and cancer research. I’ve supported a variety of other orgs whose causes I care about monetarily. I’m supportive of npos in general, but I’m most interested in work that is addressing the systemic root causes of inequality & exploitation.
