Stories don’t come to life on their own.
They’re built by people who show up, stay present, and give their time, their energy, and a piece of themselves to something bigger than them. It’s in the way they show up for each other, focused, present, and willing to sit in the hard moments together.

My venture into marketing... My husband and his friends are making a short film and I have spent the last two weeks focusing on the social media marketing for it.

Hi, I’m Brenda Lee Johnson. I’m managing the social media for My Terms, sharing hints of the journey that will bring this story to life.

I am also handling food for our team. After the long day on set, sitting down to a home-cooked meal will be soothing for the raw emotions captured on shoot day.

Watching this script come to life has been rewarding in ways I didn't expect. Being part of this project has pushed my creative boundaries and it has helped me hone my marketing skills.

It starts with scraps.

Pineapple peels, a few spices, and time (I prefer just 48 hrs, but traditionally it's longer)... Now, the whole kitchen smells like summer.

Tepache is simple and a little unpredictable, but that’s part of why I love it. Fermented drinks like this have been around for generations, not just for their flavor but for the way they support digestion, too.

I Tried A Chocolate Sourdough Starter

I was scrolling through Facebook when I saw something I had never considered before: a chocolate sourdough starter. Not chocolate bread… a chocolate starter. The video showed a jar of deep brown starter bubbling and rising, and it looked incredible. The post came from Bri Bakes - Sourdough, and the idea immediately caught my attention. I love chocolate, and the thought of fermenting it into sourdough was too interesting not to try. ...
