Hello Dreamers,
It's good to connect once more as the tides of Fall are swaying in. I wish you the best in your journey and stay safe.
As always, feel free to sign up for the DreamTeam Newsletter anytime for sooner updates. Let's catch up and talk about my recent art donation to Socal based non-profit: School of Sexuality.
They are a non-profit on a mission to de-stigmatize our bodies and sexual health education through humor and storytelling. I was contacted earlier this summer to decorate a vulva costume to be auctioned at their fundraising Gala in November 2024.

I greatly accepted the project, and then felt instant tension realizing I had a lot of baggage when it came to our bodies and sexual health. We're often not taught much or taught a skewed perspective. As someone who was unfaithful once in a young relationship, and is also a SA survivor, this project was also a needed conversation with myself.
We will make mistakes. Get hurt. The balance of life. Karma. We live and die. Start over again. How we respond makes all the difference. My experiences have given me wonderful and painful lessons. I wouldn't be the optimistic, anxious, bubbly, fearful, kind, and weird person I am today without them.
It's bittersweet to open up, flow, no plan, let go, heal, and enjoy. I'm looking forward to watching us continue to open, explore/embrace who we are, and be the change we envision.

I'd like to thank the School of Sexuality non-profit for having me contribute this piece to their cause. It was a wonderful project for myself as well.
Please consider supporting their work through a donation or bidding in their online auction through December 4th, 2024 HERE.
