Privacy Policy/Information
What Personal Data We Collect & Why
Cookies
There currently is no location for comments, and no log-in scenario, so cookies are not currently being used for this purpose.
If enabled in future (this will be updated at that time), and you leave a comment on the site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If enabled in future (this will be updated at that time) and you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, the site will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
I am using analytic cookies (see analytics section for more information).
Comments
If enabled in future (this will be updated at that time), when visitors leave comments on the site I collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If enabled in future (this will be updated at that time), if you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
Currently no contact forms that host information on the site are being used. All correspondence goes directly to my email. The information you provide in any correspondence is used solely for the purpose of responding to your inquiry/request, and never used for advertising, or selling.
Embedded content from other websites
Pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
I am using Google Analytics to monitor and analyze traffic to the site. It gives me insight into visitor numbers, demographics, and page duration. This information is gathered through analytic, browser cookies. It is only monitored by myself and my media advertising/SEO specialist. You can check Google’s Policy here: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US
Who we share your data with
I am currently only sharing information with Google for Google Analytics. You can check Google’s Policy here: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US
How long we retain your data
If enabled in future (this will be updated at that time), if you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so I can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
If enabled in future (this will be updated at that time), for users that register on our website (if any), I also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to me. You can also request that I erase any personal data I hold about you. This does not include any data I am obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
If enabled in future (this will be updated at that time), visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Data Protection Strategies
The site uses security protocols (SSL) offered through my web hosting company. I’m also careful to partner with companies who take your information as seriously as I do.
I do my best to prevent breaches, but am equipped to respond in the event of a breach. Should you suspect a breach, please contact me immediately with as much detail as possible, so I can investigate and rectify the situation.
I like to take a portion of Mondays to set a foundation for the week. This week, I started with Reiki from a friend, restorative yoga class with Tara through @definemewell , pulling a card for my tarot homework with @lamplighter.coach , reviewing my Asana, Notion, and Slack tasks/correspondence, ...
I'm working on some goals and my friend Jeana of @thecoachingconnectioninc taught me about intermittent/random rewards (in a great workshop) as a reinforcement tool, so I'm putting my design/organization skills to work for me.

When I ordered this bundle there was only one image, but I felt I would like it anyway and it fit my needs (see below). When it arrived today they were totally on brand for me using colors I adore. In school I used a lot of teal and Coral for my designs lol.

Packaging design, and how tricky our brains can be...I starred at this container at the store for like 10 minutes wondering if 2L of strawberry milk was ridiculous, especially when I was there for regular milk. I read "frais" (fresh in French) as "fraise" (🍓 strawberry in ...
When I follow an artist and love what they do, I like to support them when I can. I was so excited to get both of these parcels in the mail today. @nikiyomi.studio is amazing and I desperately want a tattoo from her @mylittleblueforest. I love watching Kimberly Toon's videos on YouTube and ...
Current temp office set up and office mate...I think my buddy @eschampgg would approve of this outside set up and also been using #notion to organize my business data and flow. Thanks for the recommendation Drekken, and the assistance @catmulvihill (aka Notion wizard)!
In an effort to encourage me to visit and use my accounts more, I'm streamlining my follow lists. I look forward to following and engaging with my entrepreneur, and design friends/accounts here on my business account.
Thanks @juleshareshares for inspiring this graphic... Legendary ...
