We are not going into a new year. We're going into "The In-Between." 2025 was the year of the snake and we shed everything! But what we're becoming is still ahead of us. We have another phase of transformation to go through first. The chrysalis.

We know the caterpillar and we love the butterfly but we don't like the messy, scary, dark chrysalis. Yes, like the womb, it holds life. In the new design model, we see it as sacred and filled with meaning and information.

This is an important episode with helpful insight for these times. Please share. Thanks!

I love Emma Hill. Her passion is so deeply rooted in community and her vision in sync with the new design model. We pay homage to her business venture, Rage City Vintage which closed on Christmas Eve. We discuss many aspects of opening and running a local business including the economy, the circulation of dollars from those who have it to those who don't through the arts and much more. Really great conversation. Thank you Emma! Onward!

The New Design for Shoes?! Yes! Did you know shoes have been the same for 10,000 years? That's until visionary Laura Oden realized that the answer to her own problem was literally in her hands. A remarkable, inspiring story for any business owner or entrepreneur as Laura charts her journey with lymphedema, one swollen foot and the need for a new paradigm for shoes!! Please share this with everyone!
