Before I became chronically ill in 2015, I had a budding handmade jewelry business called Emi K. Designs. For the past few years, I didn't have access to my beads and materials, but I recently shipped all of them from NJ to AZ, where I reside. It has sparked new life in my creative passions!😄

These are just some of the bracelets I've made in the past several days. I miss beading so much! The reality is that I can't do all of the things that I want to do. I've got to pick and choose, with a limited amount of time and energy to work with. I have severe muscle pain, tension, and weakness in my neck, shoulders, upper back, and arms. It makes it difficult to do many everyday things, including pursuing the passions that mean the most to me.♡

I may still be mostly homebound, but I'm not complaining. I feel very fortunate to have found inner peace and to be able to go out and play poker every week. I've learned to keep my stress levels very low, and I don't get involved in useless, negative drama. I've learned life lessons that some may never learn in a lifetime. I know what it's like to lose almost everything, so I take almost nothing for granted. I'm grateful to be alive.🙏 Everything else is just icing on the cake, and for now, it's more than enough.😊

★Be thankful for the amazing people and things you have in your life! It is an incredible gift to be functional, to be able to laugh, to walk, to work, to cook, to be hugged, to have friends and family who care about you, etc. No matter what is happening in the world around you, you are fortunate to be here, breathing, thinking, dreaming, and living. Count your blessings! Inner peace and contentment are unattainable without gratitude. Think about the things you're grateful for every day of your life, and you're already halfway there. Never lose hope.🫶

I'm starting to freak out a tiny bit because I'm realizing the true enormity of this production! Snake Oil is on a major network, millions of dollars were spent, and millions of people will be watching! 😲

I'm incredibly excited, and I admit, it doesn't totally feel real. I worked so hard to become a contestant, and I'm very proud of myself because none of it was easy for me.♡

The morning after my exhausting move to Scottsdale, I had to fly out to Atlanta to film my episode. I was running on just a few hours of sleep every night, in a lot of pain and discomfort, and it was all worsened because of the time difference.

Because I'm disabled with severe chronic pain and fatigue, I have to be pushed around the airport in a wheelchair. I missed my first early morning flight and had to catch the next one.

During the commercial breaks, someone brought me a stool so I could rest while the producers, makeup artist, and hairstylist fussed over me. They brought me water so I could hydrate and take my meds so I could function. I was so thankful that they were accommodating to my health issues. I had the most incredible experience of my life!😃

I hope you get to catch the show! It is a funny competition game show hosted by comedian David Spade, with jokes, celebrities, a wild audience, and a lot of money on the line. I try to use my poker people-reading skills to make it as far as possible. Adam Devine is my celebrity advisor, and he is such a professional!🤩

💜 Snake Oil premiers on FOX on Wednesday, September 27th, and streams on HULU the very next day! Our episode will air either last or close to it, in November. What an unbelievable dream!😊

When you stop challenging yourself, you get rusty at it just like you would any other skill. You start avoiding change because it makes you feel more and more uncomfortable. This is detrimental to your growth.

Once your life becomes stagnant, time transforms. You keep looking back on things rather than continuing to look forward to new opportunities. You get stuck.

Keep looking forward and keep moving forward. Only look back if doing so helps you achieve your goals in life. It's important to know that you're making progress. You're building a better life and a more beautiful future for yourself.😊

The best way to gain self-confidence is to try things that you've never tried before and to do things that you're afraid to do.

Growth is achieved by taking chances, chasing the unknown, and facing your fears.

Insight is gained by falling down, again and again, and refusing to let your failures, losses, and mistakes dictate your future actions.

You are in charge of your life. What kind of person do you choose to be?😊

I actively practice gratitude and mindfulness every single day. We are all blessed with so many beautiful gifts, but it's easy to overlook them when there is chaos and negativity getting in the way.

Choose your battles wisely; not doing so can have serious long-term consequences that will be difficult to climb out of. Gratitude is a form of self-care and prevention that helps to keep you balanced in the long run.

If you're not consciously working on improving yourself on a regular basis, your mental/physical/emotional health will suffer. Everything begins with self-awareness!😊

This is a life-size speed drawing I made when I was eighteen. I was given exactly fifteen minutes to draw a live model using chalk pastels. I was inexperienced with this medium, and I'd never drawn on such a huge scale before, especially with a time limit! 😬

I felt apprehensive in the beginning, but once I got started, I didn't want to stop! Afterward, I felt accomplished and excited for the next challenge. This piece is now crumpled up and smudged, but I'll never forget the experience of creating artwork that was larger than me! 😀

♠︎ There are endless ways to be inspired and motivated! Don't let the enormity of a challenge overwhelm you. If you dive in headfirst, you may be surprised at how much you're able to do/get done. Beginning is always the hardest part!

♠︎ Many people are more productive when they're given a deadline and/or they're under pressure. Is this true for you?

It takes , , and to achieve success in the face of hardship.

You are capable of accomplishing so much! Don't limit yourself by believing you're worthless, helpless, or weak. Don't compromise your ability to succeed by failing to put your health and wellbeing first. One small change at a time makes all the difference in the world!😊

Let's talk about how negative thoughts affect our lives!🐼

There is no doubt that our thoughts have a powerful impact on our lives. They can either propel us forward toward success, happiness, and fulfillment or hold us back in a destructive cycle of apprehension, self-doubt, and negativity.

Negative thoughts reinforce our negative beliefs, which usually lead to undesirable outcomes. By intentionally focusing on positive thoughts, we attract positive people and experiences, improve our mental, physical, and emotional health, build stronger, more meaningful relationships, and achieve our greatest goals in life!💪

★Remember: It's never too late to shift your mindset and change your perception of your situation and experiences.

Positive thinking opens up more opportunities and allows you to face your fears and challenges with optimism, hope, and perseverance, which leads to a better outcome. It takes hard work and determination, but the reward is a life-long one you won't regret!😊

♣︎ 🤐🤐🤐 These photos were from an exciting audition I had a few days ago. Wish me luck!🤞😀

This is so sad and beautiful! The pain of losing a beloved pet/family member is so acute that it often manifests into physical ailments.

It's important to be aware of how your thoughts and emotions impact your physical health and vice versa. Ignoring all of it will only hurt you in the long term. Strengthening your self-awareness improves your life in many ways you can't predict.♡

Is the pain of losing a loved one always worth the relationship? What do you think based on your personal life experience?

Growing older isn't usually glamorous. But the wisdom and confidence you gain through your life experiences is undeniable.

When you feel unsure of yourself, you must double down on loving yourself. You are much stronger than the things that try to tear you down.

Every time you rise above your enemies, you become more beautiful and emboldened. You get closer to unearthing the truths within you. 🦋

Always believe in yourself. Confidence is sexy. Empowerment is necessary for surviving and thriving, no matter what your past entails.

Hope is forever alive, like a little flame you can never blow out. 🔥

I live in such a beautiful place! No filters are ever necessary!🙂 There is no doubt that the breathtaking views in every direction improve my overall health and wellness.

I made the right decision to move to Tucson two years ago! I take big chances in my life in order to learn, grow, create, and heal. I'm not afraid to make mistakes because they continue to make me a stronger, wiser person.

I know too many people who are stuck in the same place, doing the same things they hate, with the same people they despise, thinking the same negative thoughts, year after year after year. Is it worth it? Will it be worth it in the end? Probably not.

I hope you find the courage, inspiration, and motivation you need to keep pursuing your passions and purpose in life! Don't let anyone slow you down.♡
