"So stop waiting for Fridays,

and stop waiting for summers,

and stop waiting for someone to fall in love with you,

because those things will happen.

But in the meantime, enjoy right now"

glow.

I'm currently in hibernation.

This past two weeks have been amazing, wonderful, insane, divine and full of magic.

"From Bond with Love" was all I dreamed it could be, and more. I can't even begin to describe the feelings that I've still having after the show.

I feel the post-show glow!

However, this week, I've stepped back. I'm teaching and working, but when I'm not, I'm reserved and in hiding.

When I'm ready to come out, I'll be there.

For now, I'm staying back. I'm going to take these moments of "freedom" and just be for a few more days.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support over the past few months. I'm truly honoured and on top of the world. I'll see you on the other side.

It's always over so fast.

Two years of processing and dreaming about a project // show. Hours upon hours in the studio...all for 1.5 hours over three nights on stage.

I'm thrilled to see my James Bond show come to life and my characters blossom on the stage. It's been a trip and a huge learning experience working as a producer this time.

As we head into the final hours before our final curtain call and I'm soaking up every moment.

I have no idea what tomorrow is going to feel like. The last time I was this deeply integrated into a project, I cried all day and was a mess. Other shows, I was so ready to be done.

However, this one doesn't feel finished quite yet. I think there might just be an opportunity to go a little further. We'll see.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart for all the love, support, advice and assistance with bringing "From Bond with Love" alive.

La vie est belle. 

There are things we can't always explain. Nor should we. 

There are moments that take your breath away when you least expect it. 

There are times when everything starts to come together. Sometimes, things fall apart. 

I'm one week away from debuting my first full show as a producer + I'm over the moon. I'm so proud of my dancers, the process, this story and everything. 

I know I'm going to feel a huge void after 7 months of work. It's inevitable. It's going to hurt. Maybe I'll be ready for it to be finished. Maybe not. 

Either way, it's a major step as an artist and performer. 

See you on the other side my friends. 

delicate.

This is one of my favourite times of the year.

It's that breath just before we plunge into summer.

 We've been blessed with some beautiful weather in Vancouver this year, and for the first time in a long time, I'm planning on taking a bit of time this summer to recharge and reset.

I so enjoy the sun being up until 9PM (or later), that warm breeze that still lingers in the evening, and we're just more willing to stay out for that extra glass of wine, take a walk along the water, or be silly.

It's the delicate time of year where projects are about to end, and other are about to begin.

As part of the "step back" plan (and only working really when I need to be 150% on it, I know it sounds weird, but it's so much more effective for me),

I'm going to buy more peonies, finish my glass of rose, and dream more about costumes for my show. I'm not stressed, I'm blessed beyond belief.

Have a wonderful weekend.
