Meeting The Makers: Tara of Ephemera Press

Tuesday, May 8, 2012 by Marisa Edghill

Plus Tara's work is full … [Read more...] about Meeting The Makers: Tara of Ephemera Press

The Shoes that Sparked My Confidence: Stepping into Myself & Success

Monday, March 26, 2012 by Jessika Hepburn

The walk towards freedom from myself started with a pair of shoes. No,  it started when I was asked to be one of the leaders of Spark Retreat this May.

Care/Carry/Cure an essay from ‘You Care Too Much’
