"The Ocean Touches You Everyday. With every drop of water you drink, every breath you take, you are connected to the ocean."-Sylvia Earle  The idea for the Global Guardian Project was spurred on day while my friends and I watched our children play. We were having a discussion that we have often, about leaving the earth in a terrible state for our children and grandchildren. It always leaves me feeling desperate and ashamed. But this time, I let those feelings of shame turn into sparks of inspiration.  Global education is what fuels me. It’s what I base my professional and personal life around. When I look at my own children, I know that they are the true messengers,...
When you support handmade, you aren’t just buying great art. You are nourishing the soul of an artist who pours their heart into their creations.
You are giving worth to their craft and meaning to their art. You are connecting yourself to that person by accepting a little piece of their imagination and ingenuity.Â

All proceeds from that compassion map (in a 2 month period) were donated to their program, Future Fortified. In the end, we raised enough money to provide much needed nutrients to infants and children in Kenya- 8,000 children for an entire month. It was my biggest success story. Still is. This year I'm breathing new life to our One Mother to Another Initiative by spearheading a community of...
I have a secret I need to share.  I've been working on a project for a very long time and I'm about ready to show you all.  I'm so very excited about this. Let me explain. I've created a collection of free DIY projects called the Global Guardian Project. I use art to illustrate the stories we need to tell our children. It’s important to show kids that the compassion they have for the people in their lives is the same compassion that everyone in the world deserves. My eco friendly art helps to teach little ones to be mindful and kind, and reminds parents of the importance of sending a positive message. And now, I want to offer the DIY projects...
