I reference a lot of Human Design in this post. Eventually I will write more about HD and will link it here for you, but if you are new to it right now, it’s okay not to know.  [Note: I’ve masked this guy’s actual photo with an egg face to protect the guilty.] My g-center (identity) in my chart is undefined, so how I show up can be pretty inconsistent and span a full spectrum of ways. I often experiment with new experiences, especially when it involves new people. As a 5/1, I…

[a year in review] 2020 edition, part 1

Recently, I posted this to Instagram; it’ll be a launchpad for an exploration I’ve been circling for a while now: Exactly one year ago today we took a trip to Europe. ✈️ We’d spend a brief weekend visiting with friends in Munich & take a train up to Gdańsk, Poland for a week . . . 🥀 We didn’t anticipate what would be taking place in northern Italy while we were off in Poland, so with big question marks in our minds we boarded our planes to Florence, just in time for the nationwide lockdown. 😷 It was one of the…

5 surprising things i learned from #pamelasperiproject

posted on : 20 August, 2015 0 Comment

Nothing is ever as it seems. I just wrapped my 21-day Periscope challenge on Monday, and it turns out this thing I committed to was actually all about integrating the “stuff” I was wrestling with — stuff that was keeping me small and hiding my purpose from the world. As though my gifts and talents were meant for hoarding in the private attic of my soul, rather than to be shared with humanity. The 21 days went by in a flash. After the first week, I really settled into a groove where scoping became a…

#pamelasperiproject week 1 reflections: the importance of being seen

posted on : 30 July, 2015 0 Comment

I didn’t think I’d be guilty of this. I used to be a cheerleader on my school’s spirit squad — which meant that at halftimes and at pep rallies, the crowd had their undivided attention on my team and me. I’ve performed onstage in many capacities, from dance to piano to flute to musical theatre. As a high school senior I found solace in drama club, and I was nominated by the members of my public speaking class to represent them in front of the village. It might be a natural conclusion to make that I…

#pamelasperiproject launches this sunday!

Psst. Did you know there was a new social media platform in town? Even though the last thing I needed was a new social media distraction to sponge up all my spare time and get me off track, Periscope is actually really something special. It’s a live video broadcasting platform — and because it’s owned by Twitter, it’s already widely available to many of us. The amazing thing about the livestreaming is that people participating in your broadcast are able to directly comment in realtime. What a great way to develop a relationship with all…

what reinvention means to me (i.e., refueling my purpose)

posted on : 24 February, 2015 0 Comment

Confession: I started writing this post today originally with a completely different intention. I’m familiar with the practice of letting my words carry me somewhere I never thought I’d go in the moment — welcome to writing and the art of conversation — so I surrendered to it. I promise this post has a point, so please be patient and let it unfold. After my junior year in Florence, I decided to change my major to Italian (that way, the culture classes I’d taken wouldn’t have been for nothing — this was an attempt to speed my degree along…
