Brisbin family fun day at @omsi

Me: “I’m eating dinner!” Toby: “I am RIGHT here for this.” #upcloseandpersonal #trollbaby #weeknightdinner #dinnerforone #sadeyesfortwo
You guys: Q1 is going to be a big one for me. Last year around this time I could feel my creativity igniting. Big things were going to happen. And they did, bigger and weirder and harder things than I was planning on, and as a result, I ended up stepping up into my career in ways I wasn’t expecting, and also somewhat away from my creativity. It wasn’t supposed to be an either/or scenario, but that is just kind of what happened. And I don’t regret those choices or actions, and would do it all over again (albeit with more sleep and less stress ). But I’m here, staring down the next 3 months, and let me tell you, I’m ecstatic with what I’m seeing. • • tomorrow I get to Co-teach 2 workshops with one of my favorite humans @angelajnewport we get to connect with 24 high school kids from all around Yamhill County and share 2 things we are most passionate about: Yoga+writing, and how they connect! • •Tuesday morning I get to share yoga with an incredible group of women in town for the @assemblagesymposium . I can’t believe I get to help this amazing group start and set the tone for their amazing 2 days of learning and community. • •next week I’m jumping into a new job with @mcminnvillebusiness and I get to help shape the narrative around what makes our town such an incredible place to work, live and play. • • March 1st I’ll be in Palm Springs teaching a workshop at @altsummit called “yoga for creative minds and everybody” where I get to speak with a group of women entrepreneurs and creatives about how movement helps us physically process creativity. • • March 13th, I’m leading my first ever yoga retreat in Joshua Tree California at one of my most favorite places on the planet @joshuatreeacres . I have a diverse group of women coming from Oregon and California who are entrusting me to teach them and cook for them (my two main passions) as we build a sense of community and explore the desert. I see you 2020. I’m looking right at you, and let me tell you, I LOVE What I see. #2020 #yogaprojects #altsummit #creativity #joshuatree #empoweredwomenampowerwomen #yogaretreat #yogaforeveryone #awkwardolive #palmsprings #writinglife #creativeentrepreneur : 📷 cred @justinhackworth

Just thinking back to one of my favorite sunsets of 2019.... as many of you may have heard, my time working at the MDA has also reached a sunset... and though this is bitter sweet, I am beyond thrilled to say that my “What’s next” will be with the amazing team at @mcminnvillebusiness We are so lucky to be able to call this place (McMinnville) home, and I’m excited to be working with this organization to help shape, support and sustain the various aspects that make our town such a great place to live and play. #lovewhereyoulive #sunsets #whatsnext #mcminnville
