Jonatha is my supershero

my supershero

So I got a little giddy tonight seeing this photo. My superhero Jonatha Brooke wearing one of my pieces, belting it out on tour with Joe Cocker all over Europe…

When I started my business five years ago, I sent superhero necklaces to five people I admired in the world. Jonatha was at the top of my list. She surprised me by emailing almost immediately and ordering more in every color. A girl gets a little fluttery just thinking about it.

If you’ve never heard Jonatha’s music, get yer booty over to her site. She is a bad ass rock star.

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.

    She’s playing at the Ann Arbor (that’s where I am) Folk Festival in January. I’d never paid much attention to her, but maybe we’ll check her out.

    Great necklace! Oh, and I saw you in Sunset Magazine. As I travel from weblog to weblog, I find that you have touched so many people, including myself, thank you.

    I had never heard of her, thanks for the tip. She sounds great, I’m gonna get her music. She reminds me a bit of Stephanie Schneiderman, great NW artist: http://www.stephanieschneiderman.com/music/. Same beautiful lyrics…

    I love that you did this, Andrea. Most people would start their business with the hoope that someday those five people would buy their product. You just went out and made it happen. And it tickled me to come to your comments box and see someone mention Stephanie Schneiderman…she was a backup singer in a popular Portland band during my PDX years. 🙂

    Good morning, just wanted to let you know how much I am enjoying your site! I am in a boring but necessary job at the moment and was desperately looking for something to help me get through my long days behind this desk…and here you are! I’ve been busy catching up on your archived journal entries and love how much it is opening up for me. All the links, the inspiration, the ideas for creativity, and the sense of community – much needed.
    Thank you Andrea, for all your wonderful words and images, I’ve been passing your site onto to share with all the brilliant people in my life…and there are many!
