Ars Liminalis

What a lovely, soul-filling event this was.

Thank you to everyone who came out and had me read their cards.

Each of you were a blessing to share energy with, and I hope the feeling was mutual ✨

This is a reaffirmation as to why working in the liminal space is so important, and acting in the capacity as a guide - not a guru, not a teacher - but just a guide for a short span of time in someone's life journey is so vital to me.

As a Generator-type, it is my divine duty to create positive momentum for others to use in their lives. A gentle word, quiet support, offering books from my personal library that I felt called to lend. Whatever is needed as a nudge to help them move into the next chapter on their path in life.

The greatest cheerleader in your life should always be yourself, but I'm more than happy to support you on the sidelines 💕

Good morning, friends!

Due to construction on the parking lot in Richmond Park, GR Pagan Pride Day is moving to Highland Park off College near I-196 (just north of Michigan St.)

Please spread this news far and wide!

We 100% support Lotus Brew Coffee/ Dry Bar and their mission to be the inclusive space we desperately need in the City of Grand Rapids.

Not only does Max talk the talk, he absolutely walks the walk and his raw honesty is why we love and support Lotus Brew.

I started this petition to after they promoted a devos partner 70+ multi state chain over our local shops (including us).

Our petition link is here https://chng.it/2hH5c7F5F2

Or in our bio.

I've been busy, between a ice encounter/ taking care of my mom. Pride month and navigating what the b.bs.b means for my mom's Medicare waiver covering her dementia care. I'm her guardian first, shop owner second. But I'm still sorry for the wait.

I can't in good conscious call myself a safe space if I remained quiet and complaciant in uptown supporting a Devos partner over local shops.

Devos is a major GOP donator who is funding this current administration.

This administration is attacking our q***r & immigrant communities plus many others while passing bu****it like the the big bu****it bill. ripping away coverage from so many of us while funding ice who harassed and terrorizes our neighborhoods & communities.

We have the power to vote with our dollar & we have a voice. As a community we need to make it known to uptown that we don't support this and neither should they.

The next steps would be getting more signatures to bring to uptown at the end of July so please spread the news, sign the petition if you haven't and share with friends and anyone that will listen.

The petition is for everyone who lives in gr, visits, or frequents any shops in the East hills, East town, Fulton, wealth, heritage areas.

Future goals/ next steps

We are looking for a neutral meeting space to have a public town hall inviting uptown to hear our communities voice & work together on the next steps.

In better news we'll start our uplift series starting with where we do a collaborative post showing local shops/ organizations and all the great things they do.

I am exhausted, & I have to realize I am one person trying to do all this while running a shop and whatever dozen other community projects I'm attempting, but I will not stop.

I appreciate everyone's patience & grace as I catch my breath.

We fight for the change we want to see & the hope of something better. These colors don't run
