One week ago today, our community came together to launch something beautiful: The North State Jazz Orchestra! One week later,  I can still hear the music in my heart and envision the smiles, tapping feet, and wonder in the eyes of those that were there to see it happen. I can still feel the beautiful energy that filled the room.

It was an honor to emcee the event and bear witness to the start of an incredible cultural shift in our community.  It was pure joy to see my husband's dream realized and see so many stand in support of it.

Thank you to our friends and family who came, and to all of the community members became part of the North State Jazz Orchestra's story that day! We are so grateful for all of you.

To the brilliant musicians and vocalists: your talents and generosity are true gifts to us. Thank you for sharing them.

To our extended NSJO family and volunteers who helped make the event such a success: thank you. We appreciate you more than words could ever say.

We look forward to having you at the next North State Jazz Orchestra event on Sunday, February 22nd, when the full North State Jazz Orchestra takes the stage!

What can be said about 2025? Much more than can be comfortably placed within the confines of an Instagram word count. It was a year of painful goodbyes for our family as my inlaws and too many friends and family members to count left this plain of existence for a more beautiful one. These profound losses shifted so much within us. It made us reaffirm our commitment to being there physically and emotionally with and for our family and friends for the little moments and the big ones. It made us laugh harder, hold fast to those beautiful memories, and treasure the gift of time with our loved ones more than ever before. It reminded us that experiences are so much more valuable than things. It inspired us to take chances, to take care of business, and to get our proverbial $hit together. We've done more adulting in the last 365 days than we could ever imagine or be comfortable with, but comfort doesn't build strength. Discomfort most certainly does.

This year, I'm beyond ready to welcome the shift a new year always brings. I pray it comes with more spectacular moments with the ones we love, less heartache, more rest, a liiiittle less adulting 😉, and more dreams fulfilled.

HerStorians, I want to wish each and every one of you a 2026 that surpasses your most beautiful dreams. Thank you for your support, the kind words, the quality time we've spent together and for just being here. Happy New Year, loved ones.

Stumbled on this little gem from seven years ago. My HerStory Vintage denim infinity scarf still has main character energy, all these years later. Need a one-of-a-kind denim scarf of your own? There are plenty to choose from right now on my website, linked in profile.

And the way this cold snap is coming through, it'll come in clutch. I promise.

Happy Small Business Saturday,  Herstorians! I hope you've all enjoyed an amazing holiday weekend full of rest, love, laughter, and good food,  and the people who bring you joy.

This holiday season,  I'm especially committed to shopping with local businesses,  artists, and second hand. Did you know that when you're shopping with HerStory Vintage,  you're hitting all three of those marks simultaneously?

Yes, HerStory Vintage is a small, local business based in Northern California.  Every piece of jewelry is lovingly handcrafted in my home studio. My designs often combine vintage and repurposed elements with new findings and beads to create a look you can only find with HerStory Vintage.

If you're looking for gift items for family members,  friends,  coworkers, a Secret Santa exchange, or even a little somethin' for yourself, we've got you covered. Ordering multiple items? Your whole order ships for one flat rate, sweetly packaged, and ready for giving.

This year, shopping with small businesses matters more than ever. I challenge you to skip the big box stores and shop small, locally-made, and artisan-crafted instead. I promise those CEOs aren't nearly as grateful for those sales as small business owners and artisans are. We do a happy dance with each sale. 😉🫶🏾

Shop on my website (linked in bio), tag me under a photo of the item you need, or DM me.  Thank you, HerStorians, for your continued support of this little dream of mine.

Wishing you peace, love, and blessings this holiday season.
