California Work Travel Diary 🇺🇸☀️
Landing in Potrero Hill felt like a homecoming — welcomed by my beloved Guncles into their warm and art-filled nest. Breakfast at Plow the next morning: still my all-time favourite (go hungry).
Then, south to Esalen, where the mists, hot tubs, and ocean soundtrack held me through a deep creative dive into my children’s spiritual fairytale — the next chapter of Lightseeker is truly on its way.
Also on this trip:
✨ Inner work on safety and boundaries
☕ Gently titrating off coffee (losing the buzz, regaining my natural rhythm)
💃🏼 Dancing the 5Rhythms with the magical and Douglas Drummond — wisdom keepers leading us with grace, groove and spiritual mastery
🎶 Soundtracked by the magic of
🐋 Whale spouts, dolphins, sea otters… wild beauty at every turn
💧And a personal ceremony: my anointment as Celebrant in the Esalen tradition, holding the three sacred waters — fresh, salt, and mineral — and stepping more fully into the sacred aspects of my work
Friendship, freedom, and the felt sense of transformation.
California, you’ve been good to me.
