As we close yet another chapter along this studio journey, I'm reminded that every end is just another beginning.
2025 has been a year for learning and accepting hard truths. We began the year so so excited for all of what was to come to only immediately have the wind taken from our sails following Lauren's cancer diagnosis. Lauren and I settled on this space together because it offered us both the opportunity to build our own individual businesses while feeling secure in the support of one another. Following her diagnosis, I unfortunately ran through my savings, trying to keep the doors open and what was left of my business afloat. I was dealt a losing hand, and unfortunately, I just couldn't keep going.
But, if you know me... you know I hate being told what to do... even cosmically! I held myself wide open and asked Spirit for guidance. Knowing that as I began the leap into my next trust fall exercise, I'd be set upon the next path to honor my Dharma.
When I announced our impending closure, I was met with a lot of sadness. A lot of comments like "but now what do I do with my Monday/Wednesday evenings?" "Are you really going to make us miss you?" "Alright, where can we find you next week?"
If you know me at all, you also know I LOVE the idea of fading into quiet obscurity, living my life on the fringes of society, and making excuses for why hissing at people like an angry cat is absolutely perfectly acceptable and we should all definitely be doing that more. But with all of your support, encouragement, and the denial of my silliest self, I will have to wait even longer for the opportunity to live out my Feral Forest Goblin Witch dreams.
To put it plainly, we WILL be reopening in another location downtown. I appreciate everyone's patience as I navigate another studio move. Being that we just did this, I feel all the more prepared to knock this out of the park. I can't wait to share this newest vision with you all!
Thank you all again, so so much, for the trust put in me to continue this offering to our community. For the support, encouragement, hugs, and space held while I cried loudly at the idea of not seeing all of your faces on a regular basis. It has been an honor and a privilege to serve our community in this way. I am endlessly grateful for the continued opportunity!
Until we meet again
All my love
