How Shall I Hold You

If you’re still in the mood for love, my friend Sasha Wizansky and Joshua Poertner are doing a wonderful project called How Shall I Hold You. It is a collaborative study of the love letter, specifically concerned with love letters from a specific type of relationship: lovers who do not share the same native tongue.

You can find more info here on how to submit. Send them your love letters!

Hi, I’m Andrea

On this blog you’ll be learning with me how to use our voices, share our creative superpowers and live life in full color.

As an artist, photographer, life coach + mentor, I’m redefining what it means to be a SUPERHERO — ‘cause in my world, it’s got nothing to do with capes, spandex or sidekicks and everything to do with tenderness, intuition & baby steps of bravery.

    I just noticed the bird suspended mid~flight in front of the building! That is far too cool for school! 😀

    I officially have a crush on a man who doesn’t know I exist. I seem to have escaped this conundrum in high school, and now I have no idea what to do or how to approach him, as he appears way out of my league.
    He’s a cute psychology major. Who can SING. Plus he’s smart and funny, but that’s about all I know.
    I don’t know his name, but I always lose my nerve to even say “hi” when I walk by him, which results in a weak smile he doesn’t see because he’s reading a rather large book most of the time. I probably seem like quite the whiner, but since you came up with that brilliant ‘operation bagel,’ I was hoping you might have a creative idea on how to approach him.
    I’m pretty much a wuss when it comes to these things :).

    Caroline,
    You’ve got to figure out a way!
    Do you know where he hangs out?
    I suggest you put your superhero cape on,
    and the next time you see him, say, “Hey, I’ve seen
    you around a lot. My name is Caroline.” and give him
    your big beautiful smile.
    this will be a good start!!! and not too scary.

    My boyfriend surprised me last night with one of your “superhero” necklaces, and it is just so beautiful. I love it. Been reading your blog for awhile (he knows this) so it is wonderful to have something so pretty to remind me of your inspiring words…thanks!
