💕 Life sometimes takes you places you’d never imagine finding yourself, but I imaged it, and it manifested! Grateful! ✨@premierbridal ✨ #bridalgown #bridalgowns #weddingdress #weddingphotography by @grumpygeorgi

A wildfire destroyed my entire city - more than 9,000 structures. It’s devastating to not only lose your own home but all of your neighbors, your community, the schools where your kids grew up, the local businesses you frequent, etc. It’s overwhelming.

I felt so drained, weakened, horribly sad, and also didn’t really know how to grieve this type of loss. I was used to making art all of the time - something, even of small, but I just could NOT do it. Any art supplies donations we received were untouched. I was uninspired.

My mother and I went to Sicily to paint with one of my favorite painters. There I was forced to do preliminary sketches. The group of painters was so special, the locations were incredible, and the experience irreplaceable. Sicily and mainland Italy (which I love) helped jumpstart my art practice upon my return to the States, which has given me a calm, quiet way to heal and move forward to a next chapter. ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

Sometimes I wake up and instead of going directly to the gym, I get lost scrolling, work that isn’t urgent, or whatever… then I become angry with myself for being lazy and sometimes stress snack.

Movement notoriously equals mental and physical wellbeing.

I know now that if I at least get up and move and be productive - with any task that needs to be completed - I feel better about myself.

I’ve always been determined and have a very strong work ethic.

I felt that working like a horse would pay off somehow.

The pay-offs were not worth the constantly spiked cortisol and negative impacts on my health.

I have so much less work stress now, because my 1️⃣ job is more chill now, and I started drawing, painting, and collaging again.

I’ve found some peace during my tough, current home situation. I intend to continue pursuing peace and calmness.

Wow! Life is really something to endure, from the turning points here to all of the in between crisis, challenges, heartbreak, healing, and revelations that you cannot see. 💔 ❤️‍🩹

This has been an emotional week and a bit of therapy, by forcing myself to reflect and look deeply inward.

I am grateful to this community of supportive, likeminded individuals. 🙌🏼❤️Jun, thank you (more than I can say) to you and your team. @jun_yuh @creatorcollege_ #storytellingcontentchallenge by @grumpygeorgi

I’m middle-aged, and I’m not afraid to admit:

1️⃣ I haven’t embraced aging, and I get irritated when people ask my age. I am trying to surround myself with strong, older [artist] women who embrace their age.

2️⃣ I suffer from extreme ADHD and anxiety and have operated as such most of my life, within my overly ambitious brain. My awareness of this helps me take exhausting steps throughout each day to [attempt to] manage focus and stay ‘on task’.

3️⃣ At age 11 was the onset of my life-long eating disorder. If you haven’t lived it, imagine a devil on your shoulder monitoring your every move and thought around foods and weight gain - creating “noise” in your brain all day, every day, for years and years. I’m trying to balance that, midlife hormones, and heavy weight training.

4️⃣ I awaken each day and ask myself if I am happy or just pretending. For many years, I have felt the weight of being the parent who has carried a larger portion our family’s emotions, income, household tasks, etc. I am still mulling over an approach to jumpstart a healthy solution for everyone.

5️⃣ Raising two thoughtful, intuitive young men, I worry constantly about their mental health, worry that only deepened after the disaster we went through together in 2025. I keep searching for ways to help them move into a healthy recovery.

6️⃣ The fact that I have always had strong metacognitive skills and deductive reasoning, I am always irritated at people who do not. I have taught myself to breathe through situations and know that it’s ultimately not my problem.

7️⃣ I trust nearly no one and over-analyze everything, as I have witnessed so much dishonesty in my life…or dishonesty from and towards family and friends. I don’t get very close to people very often - keep them at a safe distance.

8️⃣ I regret working my butt off for so long and for long hours and commuting when my boys were growing up. It pains me that I lost so much valuable time with my sweet boys.

I am working towards shifting mindset and changing habits that hold me back and forgiving myself for only knowing what I did in those past moments. #storytellingco by @grumpygeorgi

Full video in TikTok under my biolink. ‼️ARTISTS‼️who may have lost their creative space, whether large or small, or just a corner of a room - in the recent fire - search “Artist Grants”, “Fire Relief for Artists”, in your city/state. Do this daily, as new programs will be established as time goes by. #fire #spokane #spokanewashington #wildfire #wildfires by @grumpygeorgi
