Sunday March 1st 2026
A week balancing art, family, community, and reflection — from honoring women’s legacy in Coconut Grove to preparing upcoming artist talks at MIFA. As Women’s Month begins, this moment feels like a reminder that art and humanity remain deeply connected.
Finding Calm in Motion
A week between cities and responsibilities, creativity and family, exhaustion and gratitude. From Vegas to LA to Miami, from exhibitions to Shabbat, from lists to sunsets—learning to slow down, prioritize, and trust the rhythm of life. One step at a time, with faith, love, and perseverance.
Where Art, Motherhood, and Trust Meet
From planes to galleries, school runs to solo shows, and Amsterdam to Miami to Las Vegas — a behind-the-scenes glimpse into life in motion. Between art, motherhood, community work, and personal growth, this post celebrates the beautiful chaos, the invisible reality behind creative success, and the courage it takes to trust your path while juggling ambition, family, and heart. 🤍✈️🎨
This Sunday, January 18, 2026
A week lived at full speed—long days, full responsibility, and the need to pause and recover—unfolds alongside major professional milestones and a world in turmoil. This reflection moves between the intimate and the global, celebrating resilience, faith, and quiet courage, while embracing the idea that growth, like art and life, takes time, care, and patience.
Speechless and grateful. And speechless!
This week left me speechless and grateful. For the first time in years, I stepped back from showing at an art fair to enjoy Miami Art Week from the other side, while still supporting JDR Atelier at Booth 903. We took a much-needed Thanksgiving break in the Bahamas, where the kindness of friends and the reality of life’s unexpected turns reminded me of what truly matters: love, family, resilience, and showing up with grace.
Unchained Mothering continues to grow — from new press features to our upcoming AR experience at the steps of the Art Basel Convention Center. With Giving Tuesday approaching on December 2nd, your support means everything as we honor mothers’ invisible contributions through art.
As Art Basel Week begins and my birthday approaches, I’m choosing gratitude, strength, and togetherness. Wishing everyone a meaningful week — especially all the artists and gallerists working tirelessly right now.
Sunday, November 23 — Miami
A whirlwind across Cali, Nevada, Give Miami Week, a surprise school switch, and a heart full of gratitude.
Conclusion? People make everything possible.
Life moves fast — but love, intention, and community keep us steady.
More soon… Basel is calling. 💛

Our first Miami Give 5K was unforgettable: 11 runners, 1 supporter, and a first-place win for our Unchained Mothering Ambassador. This powerful moment opens our call to support the work we do all year to make mothers and their invisible contributions seen.
What Mayci Neeley’s Book Reminded Me About Humanity, Womanhood, Motherhood, Courage, and Truth — and What Women Have in Common, Wherever They Come From
I finally finished Mayci Neeley’s book — one I had preordered months before it even came out. What began as a tough read, filled with pain and uncomfortable truths, slowly unfolded into something deeply meaningful.
Womanhood, Motherhood — in all its forms — is a universal language. No matter where we come from, we share the same fears, hopes, and strength to grow through life’s hardest moments.
