This year I've been working with the four #feminine #archetypes , as described by Toni Wolff (the less credited #woman who made important contributions to the world changing work of Carl #Jung ). These are the real life #inspirations that have been helping me in bringing these abstract principles to life: @ocasio2018 = Amazon (warrior), @mikikashtan = Medial Woman (healer), @rupaulofficial = Hetaira (lover), Alexandra Franzen = Mother. All these ladies make it known that it is so very possible to be fierce AND soft, self caring AND community building. #gratitude #femaleempowerment
There is an overwhelming amount of heartbreaking events happening right now. And there are signs of hope too. The #amazon #fires are reminding me of all those precious #rainforest creatures (like this howler #monkey ) who saved my life so many years ago and whom I shall never forget. #flashbackfriday . I (almost) never do this in my posts, but I am asking you to consider donating to @rainforestalliance who is redirecting donations this month to frontline groups. I consider this catastrophe an existential threat and I weep for I understand just how incomprehensible this loss is to most folks. If we seek to affirm life on this magnificent #Earth it is our duty to let our heart's sorrows become courageous and thoughtful actions. #prayforamazonia #savetheamazon #rainforestalliance #climatechange #climatejustice #climateaction
On Writing by @stephenking is hands down one of the most #inspiring #books I have ever read. "The water is free... Drink and be filled up." #gratitude #writing #reading #creativeliving #creativelife
More great #dataviz from @theupshotnyt this week, part of some interesting @nytimes #stories that are clearly data driven. Much as it discourages me to see that only the most #liberal understand the true threat #climatechange presents, I would much prefer stories like these over merely theorizing what #policies people care about, how #place impacts #politics and/or who people think of as "rich" these days. #policy #policyviz #economics #datastorytelling #datajournalism #journalism #2020 #democratic #map #geography
Stumbled on this #visualization and it's one of the coolest I've seen in awhile and about one of my fave subjects: #cognitivebias - 175 different kinds are documented here by John Manoogian and Buster Benson (you can see definitions and more on wikimedia). The takeaway: our brains need to process a lot of #information , create #meaning , act quickly, and retain what they can and this makes them incredibly imperfect (and it's why #stories and #visuals are such important helpers or harmers). We often perceive inaccurately and make rash decisions which means being honest with ourselves and keeping an open mind are incredibly difficult but absolutely necessary. #informationdesign #storytelling #psychology #complexity #honesty #openmind
‪Doctors Can Now Give Out Prescriptions for Art Museum... in Canada of course - article in @fortunemag : https://fortune.com/longform/montreal-museums-health-prescriptions/‬ Made me think of Frida, whom I consider to be the patron saint of healing through art and whose birth and death both occurred in the month of July. Beauty is one of nature's most profound medicines. #medicine #healing #art #beauty #fridakahlo #health
Just curious. When you describe someone, perhaps yourself, as "collaborative," what exactly do you mean? It's been on my mind for awhile now. Hearing your thoughts will help me plan for the livestream I'm hosting this coming week! #collaboration #collaborate #group #together #unity #cooperation
I drew this about a month ago when I was feeling some things #shift but not quite seeing #changes manifest fully yet. With it I reminded myself why I decided to use a golden #spiral for my logo: it is the only shape in #nature that allows an organism to #grow at the same rate internally and externally. We can see it in shells, sunflowers, galaxies, the dives of birds of prey, and hurricanes. A month ago my anxiety was about not seeing the changes and now that I’m starting to see them my anxiety is about feeling uncertain about whether I’m ready for them. I am now, as I endeavored to be when I drew this, trusting the #wisdom that nature so beautifully reveals. #sacredgeometry #growth #transformation #beauty #change
