The Mormon Wives have arrived! If you loved this presentation in person or this is your first time watching please share the video. This is a hard launch both for my new philosophy and my speaking career. I would very much appreciate you help in spreading the word. Let's change the world one wife at a time.

A stroll through our collective madness, viewed through the prism of our possessions. What are these objects trying to teach us about how we engage with the ...

Happy New Year’s Eve Y’all! 🔮 2021 is the year I took responsibility for my joy. ✨ From depths of January sadness > to saving myself with a visit to soul friends across the mountains > to trail running at sunrise > to sharing my house with a friend > to hosting a weekly breakfast for the differently employed > to starting a garden > to turning 40 (everyone’s doing it) > to letting three swarms of bees do some matchmaking on my behalf > to finding a spiritual advisor > to going completely sober solstice to solstice > to volunteering for mobile meals > to going on many full moon based adventures > to designing a few heart-based renovations > to helping put together a festive bike parade > to a couple magical canoe excursions > to making a music video with my neighbor > to returning to the stage > to refocusing on my purpose here on Earth > to many life-changing closet, bookcase, kitchen makeovers > and to just *maybe* (this one is new) burning away the desire to control where my life is going, and just seeing and doing about today.

if I leaned anything this year is that life is about other people—spending time together, making things together, helping each other, and listening to each other. Also, dark chocolate hummus is apparently a thing and you definitely want to try it.

What is KonMari magic? It’s when things, situations, and people that you are looking for are drawn to you as if by magic because you’re working on your space and therefore yourself.

Do you drink out of mediocre glasses because you’re afraid of breaking the good ones? And have you considered what sort of message that sends to the universe regarding what level of blessings you can handle? 😯
🌈
I do. And when the opportunity presented itself, I recently upgraded my thrift store glasses with another set of thrift store glasses curated by and I’m pretty excited about it. My guests agree that porch beers taste better out of charming goblets.

I’ve been helping people declutter and organize for three years now, and I figure this is a good time to start bragging on myself a little bit. I’ll be sharing some of the nice things my clients have said about working together.
✨
Read more awesome reviews when you google Bower & Bird Knoxville. Also, if we’ve worked together and you’d like to write me a review, I would super appreciate one! 💖

I call this art'vertising. If you could use a laugh today, here it is. Hope you enjoy watching this as much as we enjoyed making it.

It has been a dream of mine to star in a real 1990s INFOMERCIAL complete with epic fails, over-the-top narration, and the ugly blue screen at the end. For 20...

Who wore it better? Marie obvi, but we’re keeping up with the Kondos here in Tennessee! 🌱 My partner and I started this garden at a friend’s house at the beginning of quarantine. It’s been a source of inspiration, natural vitamin D, and tomatoes for us, our friends and neighbors.
🌱
I was amazed at how well the plants grew when we just took good care of them. 💡🌱 We are like plants too, but we treat ourselves like machines. It is in our nature to grow and be productive. We just need the right conditions. 🌱 So instead of berating yourself about all the things you haven’t done, be your own gardener and make sure you have the right environment first. 🧚🏻‍♀️ I know KonMari home organization is an essential part of this self care. So... (literally)

I’m coming out of quarantine with a GOLD belt in KonMari, y’all! AND I’m taking this opportunity to also come out as the truest, highest expression of myself (as Oprah would put it) BECAUSE there is work to be done on this planet and I need my power wig to help me say the things that need saying. 🙏 hint:
✨
I will elaborate on this in my future posts. In the meantime let’s briefly enjoy how well this lewk matches this level. You see, my hours are actually approaching platinum certification !!! for which I have no outfit—yet
✨
Also, thank you to my quarantine clients you are a true source of inspiration. You’ve been totally crushing it!!!

Utility room JOY makeover! I found some joy-sparking paint while re-organizing the formally problematic back room of my house, and painted a stream-of-consciousness mural on its walls. Along with some new shelving and hanging bike storage the vibe has totally changed. I’m so happy with it.
✨
This back room was an ill-considered and poorly executed addition to my otherwise quaint Victorian home. With a real renovation being off the table for a while, embracing what I have and getting a little wild feels just right.
✨
I enjoyed the opportunity to get in touch with my inner artist, who apparently is a toddler. Not surprised by that, but I haven’t painted since that one random art class in college so kind of surprised how well turned out. Having nothing to lose really works in your favor.
