The recent solstice marked a very powerful shift in our global energy so here’s hoping it brings good things for all.?

Since warm temps have finally arrived I’ve been enjoying the rejuvenating sunshine, deepening my mediation practice and delighting in my daily visits with some of our wildlife. Highlights include cradling a tiny four day old fawn, daily talks with the stunning monarch butterflies, hummingbirds, dragonflies, eagles, owls, woodpeckers, robins, seals and many more of natures beauties.

My challenging recovery is slow and tender while I make the most of this humbling, strengthening experience. Thanks for the many kind emails of support. I am so fortunate to have the much needed peace and quiet of our pastoral sanctuary and the kindness of many friends through texts and email, near and far.

Golden Thread 

In April I mailed out 60 CD’s to radio stations across the US and Europe and have been blown away by the response and support of many stations that have steadily been spinning ‘Unconditional Love’. To my surprise, I’ve place in the Top 50 this week in the Smooth Jazz Global Charts (#49 to be exact), #23 on the Top Indie Charts and #20 on the Radar for Radio Charts!! What a fulfilling and wonderful elixir for healing to watch the song I wrote for my 25th Wedding Anniversary climb the charts!

The gorgeous video for my single, ‘Unconditional Love’, was filmed by Mike Southworth and his amazing crew in Howe Sound. It’s had over 5000 hits so far! If you missed it, please check it out and enjoy as it’s a summer favourite!

I’m the kind of woman that always needs something to work towards so I am grateful to play once again at Frankie’s Jazz Club in August. If you’re not off on some exotic holiday, I would LOVE your support on this one! I’ll be singing tunes from the American Songbook, some originals, and in honour of Canada’s 150th, some Joni Mitchell too.

I love this monthly chance to share my up and my downs knowing it’s all part of life’s ongoing creative journey. Until next month, thanks for reading!

Be well.
Love, light and music!
