the way you move your feet when you're trying to go nowhere is a very telling thing

Hello!

You might know me by other names, like SparkToFlame, SparkOfDoubt, DramaLlama, or (if you're really, really old) Pointe2drama. I've been a member of YWS since I was 12 years old, and recently returned following my graduation from my Master's program.

I live in St. Louis with my partner (Si) and our two puppies, Elliot and Olivander. We love going on walks, exploring our city, and spending time together. I've always been a writer, but now that I have more time to focus on such things, I'm hoping to return to the productivity I had as a teenager.

And... that's why I'm here!

P.S. << that picture is from my days as a ballerina <3

Industrial Organizational Psychologist


Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.
— Brené Brown
