Hello

A beautiful hi from the calm Chiang Mai in the North of Thailand. I hope your week is going well and your heart is complete. After last week’s chaos with half a newsletter arriving in your inbox, I can only say a quick prayer and hope this one will make it in its entirety.

The theme of this week is “You are the magic!”

As I landed in this new city I was reminded of this saying. It’s been the cornerstone of my teaching philosophy since I taught kindergarten. I wanted to have something on the wall for kids to remember that they were the key to everything good in their lives.

A good reminder for all of us as we get older. Life can either happen to you or you can make it happen.

This past week I have worked from my friend’s apartment, cafes in Seoul, buses to Jeonju, train stations, bus stations, airports with my carry-on as a table, and more. I have split my hours to be more flexible but to get everything done.

With this, I am more productive because I know things need to get done in order for me to go live life in this new space because I am here for just a few moments. (If only we could remember this daily…we are only here in each space for a few moments..why do we waste the days.)

Your task this week:

• Do one thing to change up your life! Take the morning and go do your favorite thing before starting your work day.

• End an hour early and go watch the sunset from a new place.

• Take your best friend and go have an adventure!

Remember each week, we are just moving one tiny step forward to creating a life you love. 

A different type of life. I think for most of us this slowing down is very aspirational, yet with the productivity, neverending to-do lists, and endless notifications, her life looks like bliss. Maybe we can take 1 or 2 ideas for life ♥️

Artists Who Inspire

Elladj Lincy Deloumeaux

The beauty of daily life is captured through the eyes of an artist. Meet Elladj Lincy Deloumeaux an artists from Guadeloupe. I love the eyes of each character it’s as if it shares the secrets of their lives in this moment.

Another one on my bucket list to see in person! Have you found your favourite artist yet? After 130 week of art I hope your virtual collection has grown from these shares.

In Chiang Mai for the month and looking for some local talent. Hopefully, next week’s issue has a local gem for you.

Song of the week

Can you see yourself walking down the street in bell-bottomed 70s pants? Hope this one brings you as much happiness as it did to me when I found it.

This week turn it up and get up and dance. Remember you have the power to change your day’s energy…you are just one happy dance away from it all.

Before I forget - a big thank you to @0melapics for the Tribal design that inspired this branding.

Final thoughts:

No matter where you are in life…keep going! Disconnect when you need it. Pause and redirect your life. Shut down the world for a moment. Then get back up and keep going!

This is your life…you need to keep going until the very end!
