Been cooking content up...

The other night I took a break to make supper. I took my broccolli out of the fridge, washed it with water and then began cutting the florets off the stem.

Out popped this little fella.

His species also exists up here so I just figured I would put him outside, that way s/he could find a place to sleep the winter before the snow came.

Two mornings later, I woke up to snow.

I have some better resolution images that I will share in my photography portfolio (under development) and I will be turning at least one into a colouring page and blog post.

Im still streamlining my vision for the entire FolkWoman/WestCoastAcadian platform while also developing this pod, and so you will have to stay tuned.

I am also thankful that at 40 I still have great eyes for distinguishing things, like spiders from countertop patterns!

⚠️ Flood Watch Issued for North Coast Region — RDKS Releases Hazard Notice**

I have a new episode coming out soon, sorry for taking such a long break. Just finishing the script, and we're gonna talk about the dark places that some of us have to go in order to move forward in our healing journeys.

I want my podcast to be a safe space for me to share my dark parts, and when I have the capacity, a space for others to feel safe enough to share their dark parts or stories too. 

the next episode will be an into to me, the channel, and the segment styles you might discover.
