Is there a more beautiful possibility in life than walking your own hero’s journey?  Life is such a wonderful mix of joy, pain, love, loss, celebration and aloneness and what has the possibility to rise out of the ashes of experience is a calling so deep within every one of us that wants nothing more than to expand, to soar, to love, to cherish and turn to our fearful self and say “You’re coming with me kid!” When we look back at our lives, one of the most important questions we all need to face is: “Did i really live?…

This one’s huge! (HUUUUUUUUGGEE) We’re currently bombarded with news, fake news, real news, news news and our favourite, local news.  And yes while most of it is complete nonsense, what is even more ridiculous is the collective addiction to it.
