I was inspired by @Adelina Rosa who created a prompt in her Skool community and I decided to create a prompt for my vision of Otter Hollow. I didn’t realize how peaceful it would feel to step into something I created with a whisper from my Soul. If you could create a place that feels like you, what would it look like for you? Imagine a place that feels like home to you. Focus on the environment, the mood, and the feeling you want when you’re there. Include details that bring you peace, joy, excitement, or comfort. It can be quiet or alive, simple or magical. Let it reflect you. Here are the prompt basics I used to create my vision. “A ___ (type of place) in ___ (location or setting), with ___ (key elements you love). The atmosphere feels ___ (emotion or energy). Include ___ (details that matter to you). Soft, immersive lighting, and a strong sense of ___ (feeling you want to experience).” Example: A cozy beach at sunset in Hawaii, with warm sand, gentle waves, and a hammock between palm trees. The atmosphere feels peaceful and free. Include seashells, a soft breeze, and golden light reflecting on the water. If you create one, share it below. I’d love to see your world.

This is Bean. She couldn’t resist the gnat traps. And now we all get to caption it. 🤣 Drop them in the comments and let’s play. P.S. No cats were hurt in the taking of this picture. The human… to be determined

Today’s challenge is a continuation of yesterday’s, but this time, we’re bringing that love back to the ones who show us how to do it 😊 I know I needed this one. I’m guilty of coming home, giving a few minutes, and not fully receiving everything my babies are so freely giving me. Life gets in the way and somehow the purest moments get the smallest pieces of us. So here is Part Two of the challenge: The next time you walk through the door and pause and before anything else, meet them where they are. Same energy. Same presence. Same love. No distractions and no rushing. Just be in the moment. Then come back and share your experience with the community 💛

I read a beautiful post in the community from @Americo Da Costa, and it inspired me to do our very first 2-part Empowering Animals challenge! 💛 I know... so ambitious of me! 😂 I've said for years we can learn a thing or twelve about unconditional love from animals, so that's the challenge. Are you ready to give Part One a go? Buckle up, my buttercups... The next time you see someone you love, whether it’s when they walk through the door or you meet them somewhere, greet them the way your animal companions greet you. No holding back. No filtering it down. Let it fly. 😁 Greet them with what you think your companions are saying when they see you. “I missed you so much!” “I’ve been waiting all day for you to come home.” “I’m so excited you’re here!” “Let’s do something together, just me and you.” “Let’s go for a walk!” “Let’s get something to eat!” "Let me tell you about the wonderful day I had while I waited to see your face again!" …or whatever you feel in that moment. Just let it be real. When you complete the challenge, come back and share your experience of unconditional love with the community. There’s no time limit, and no limit to how many times you try it out. Now go feel what it’s like to be deeply connected to your soul 💛

I can’t remember a time my dreams didn’t include animals in one way or another. Starting Empowering Animals, bringing people and animals together, that is part of that dream. I have a vision. I just don’t know yet how all of it will unfold. What I do know is that something in me feels unfinished without it. Like there’s a piece of my soul that only makes sense when I’m doing this. The magazine cover was a fun AI prompt. But it also felt like a glimpse of a dream that could be. Dreams aren’t meant to show us the whole path. They just keep pointing us in a direction so we don’t forget who we are.
