A Living Exchange: Why I Accept Donations
At this stage of my life, I’m less interested in transactions and more interested in exchanges—of energy, curiosity, creativity, and care.
Much of what I do grows from an engaging place: I love to create, explore, notice patterns, and help others see themselves and their lives a little more clearly. Donations are a form of energy that supports that way of living. They allow me to keep following what feels alive and meaningful, while staying rooted in well-being, connection, and generosity.
Where Energy Flows Everything Grows

Here are some places where energy flows.
I spend time in the garden appreciating nature while landscaping, working with soil, plants, and outdoor spaces that invite life back in—birds, squirrels, pollinators, and people-friendly spaces.
I create art in many forms: traditional, digital, experimental, and intuitive. I upcycle furniture, remodel spaces, make home décor, and also enjoy building smaller habitats for birds and squirrels—projects that blend usefulness with imagination and care for the environment and nature’s creatures.
I have also spent many years teaching and coaching authenticity. I work with art to unlock insight and confidence. I offer intuitive coaching and numerology readings for those who are curious about world and life cycles, timing, and deeper patterns shaping their lives.
When you receive a creative consultation, reading or a session, you’re not just supporting that moment of insight—you’re helping sustain a broader co-creative ecosystem.
Playing in the Circle

Donations also support the quieter, human moments that nourish everything else. Sometimes that’s meeting a friend for a latte and conversation. Sometimes it’s donating a piece I’ve made to a charity auction, or giving time and creativity where it feels needed.
These things may seem small, but they are part of the same circle—giving, receiving, and giving again.
I see this as a reciprocal energy, not a simple exchange of time for dollars. Your contribution fuels my creative explorations, my teaching, my learning, and my well-being. In return, that energy flows outward—into art, guidance, shared insight, beauty, and acts of generosity that ripple beyond us both.
Donate
If you feel drawn to support this work, thank you. Your donation is a way of saying, “Keep going. Keep creating. Keep sharing.” And that matters more than I can easily put into words.
