A Radiant Vessel (in the making)
I spent some time digging into my #oneword for 2025 (alabaster). I wanted to share some of my findings before January is officially over. Alabaster is such a unique word for me, as I usually have an action word that I’m focused on each year. It feels like a deep well, and I am excited … Continue reading A Radiant Vessel (in the making)
