My goal is to live in balance. To connect my heart, body, mind, and spirit, with my self, family, local community, and world.
Out of this desire, came the idea for a family film that explores the diverse affects of the many forms of communication we use to stay “connected” in the internet age.
From the beginning, I yearned to give back to my community by shooting the film here on Whidbey Island, and utilizing local art to dress the sets. I’d thought the project was too big to be fully supported here, so I turned to the global audience base I’d developed as an online performer, to utilize the power of uniting the gifts of people all over the world.
This brought me great joy, and also an imbalance. I was unable to maintain a strong connection to my local community, and I grew exhausted and frustrated trying to collaborate only through the internet.
I realized, painfully, that I’d been too scared to ask my incredible community for help. So I turned my heart homeward and began to workshop the script with a wonderful cast of local actors. They, and our Line Producer, helped me realize that we have excellent resources to cast and crew the film right here on Whidbey Island, WA!
In resonance with my initial goal, this Project invites me to engage every resource I have within my self, family, local community, and global community, for a truly collaborative film. I have a lot to learn, and announcing my deficiencies honestly so that they can be filled by others is the greatest challenge I’ve ever encountered. But it’s also thrilling.
I believe that we all have important gifts to share, and that the world needs what each of us feels inspired to give. I offer my gifts as a writer, director, and initial visionary for this Project. I also offer this entire learning process as an open resource to help educate and inspire others as they manifest the projects of their own soulfire.
With all my heart, We Are Connected.
