Good Evening, Dreamers!

Guess what? There are 129 days until the first day of Summer. We know it feels good to count down, to look forward, to have plans. What an unfathomable memory we are all creating. We feel better when we are inspired, which is why we plan to curate and create as many enriching and enlightening moments that we can for all of us!!! We deserve (and have earned) these upcoming dates. Flag ‘em and put them on your phone and calendar.

Thursday, February 18 @ 3pm, the dreamcatchers podcast:
We are incredibly privileged to have Rob Smith, CEO + Founder of The Phluid Project on the show! (Special #webatwork wink to dreamMAKER Laura Belvedere for the introduction!) Rob has created a brand combining his profession (retail) with his passion (a commitment to social justice). A fashion industry veteran, Rob has now made it his life's mission to lead a global movement of freedom, authenticity and self-expression. Join us on FB Live then stay tuned for the full episode on Apple Podcasts!

Thursday, February 18 @ 7:30pm, dreamMASTERS academy:
quiet the noise: a yoga class to pull you back into yourself featuring former what's the word (TENACITY) podcast guest, Tootsie Olan. See link in podcast section below - her episode was one our MOST LISTENED to ever! AHHH!
