I want to share some of my band KIVA’s songs of empowerment with you: Lovin’ Ourselves Into Love, A Call to Beauty and Empowerment. All three of these songs that I wrote and/or performed, were inspired by a lifetime of being treated as “less than” because I wasn’t thin. From being put on a diet …

I have been a Brigid devotee ever since I learned of this Celtic Goddess back when I was a young aspiring actress in New York City.

Greetings, Patreon followers and music lovers everywhere! This year (at least!) I will be doing readings based on the cross quarters; Imbolc, Beltane, Lughnasa, and Samhain.
