This week has somehow been both full speed and slow pace.
A week between full speed and slowing down: family travel, art, Shabbat, CAPTURE 2026 at the Coral Gables Museum, community projects, and discovering Theo of Golden at just the right moment.
Travel • Art • Hidden Gems • Motherhood • Women's Empowerment • Stories – Simply be yourself, as if, it was possible, at least bite into it!

What do you really allow yourself to want?
A conversation about my Instagram somehow became a bigger question about strategy, ambition, manifestation—and the ways we negotiate ourselves down before anyone has even told us no.
I’m learning to think bigger without becoming someone else. Because being reasonable belongs in a budget. It doesn’t have to be on the dream menu.
Almost July already! This week was about firsts, laughter, and slowing down: my first live football match after 22 years of marriage, the incredible energy of the Dutch Orange Army, a much-needed break, and rediscovering the world through my artist’s eyes… plus one unexpected victory—a pair of pants! 🤣
Be the light to someone else spark
As May comes to a close, I reflect on two lessons that kept returning: don’t wait for perfection, and don’t be afraid to tell your story. Between being a mom of three, an artist, observing Shabbat, navigating family spread across continents, and building new projects, this month reminded me that progress, rest, courage, gratitude, and letting go all have their place.
A very unfiltered week 😅
Family, motherhood, exhaustion, admin overload, cooking for 14, missing Paris and my daughter, artist life, Glow!, New Mexico dreams, unexpected gifts from another artist… and somehow making the Top 15 of The People’s Artist competition 🤍
A little journal entry!
This week: life in motion, and a moment that matters—
“Wow! You Are Amazing!” was acquired at The Bass Museum of Art by a collector it truly resonated with.
Exactly where it was meant to be.
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.
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.
Last Sunday of the year.
While my IG reached almost half a million views in the past 90 days, it’s here, on the blog, that I slow down and say what doesn’t fit in a caption. This space asks a bit more effort — and I believe effort deserves something extra. So if you’re here, this one is for you 🥰
