🎀 Breastcancer awareness month 🎀

I photographed my mom Maria in 2007, shortly after one of the many chemo treatments she had to endure. She was 55 in these pictures. By then, she had already lived with cancer for seven years — and she would continue to fight and live fully for another ten.

My mom was one of the most incredible people I’ve ever known — fierce, tenacious, and endlessly kind. She never let her diagnosis slow her down. She lived life to the absolute fullest and taught me to celebrate everything — big or small — because life itself is truly a miracle.

She lived for her family (and her dogs!), loved hosting gatherings filled with laughter, and found her peace walking through the beautiful Swedish forests surrounding our home.

She was my rock, my mothership, my person. There isn’t a single day that goes by without me thinking of you, mama.

Jag älskar dig. 💗

🇸🇪🇺🇸 28 Years in America 🇺🇸🇸🇪

October 19th marks 28 years since I first set foot on American soil. I’m incredibly proud to be an immigrant — proud of the life I’ve created here and grateful for all the opportunities this country has given me.

One of my favorite things about America is its diversity — the beautiful blend of people, cultures, and stories. That’s what makes this country so special. I built my dream life and career here, without even going to college, simply by following my passion and working hard.

But I’d be lying if I said my heart doesn’t ache seeing what’s happening right now — families being torn apart, people detained without reason. It’s painful and frightening. I want to show my sons why I chose to make my home here, to remind them what this country stands for: freedom, opportunity, and the ability to create a life you love.

I teach them to never forget where they come from — that half of them is Swedish, and that is a gift. We speak Swedish at home, and Viggo is in a dual-language program learning Spanish. I want them to grow up as citizens of the world — curious, open-minded, and respectful of all cultures.

Traveling and connecting with people across borders has taught me that there’s no “right” or “wrong” way to live — just different, beautiful ways of seeing the world. What a gift it is to learn new languages, explore new places, and share in our shared humanity.

Let’s keep that spirit alive — for our children and for generations to come. It’s one of the most precious gifts we can pass down. 🌍

This is my favorite time of year! The Equinox feels like go time—when my energy is at its peak, inspiration flows, and all I want to do is create and dive into new projects.

I’ve been holding onto this beautiful daily affirmation from

“There is a passion within me
that can’t be tamed, only guided.
My heart and intuition lead this flame
toward what feels most fulfilling.”

So, if you’re local to the San Diego / North County area and would love to create something together or collaborate on an artistic project, I’d love to connect. Dancers and yogis especially—I’m calling you in! ✨ DM me with your ideas.

✨ On September 7, a Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse rises at 15º Pisces. This powerful event signals the closing of a chapter and invites us to release what has run its course. 🌕✨

It’s a moment for integration, closure, and surrender—a chance to make space before the new unfolds. The Pisces Eclipse asks us to let go of what no longer holds meaning, trust the flow of life, and step forward with faith and gratitude as we honor the end of a cycle. 🌊💫

Seven years ago today, I became a mama ♥️ Viggo surprised us, arriving quite dramatically at just 32 weeks (two months early), and our lives have never been the same.

My love for travel and adventure took on a whole new meaning as we embarked on the greatest journey of all — parenthood.
We spent five weeks in the NICU — a time that was both traumatic and scary — but against so many odds, our little warrior not only survived, he is now a thriving 7-year-old with the most incredible imagination.

Thank you, Viggo, for filling our days with your boundless enthusiasm, creativity, and just the right amount of sass. We love you to the moon and back, my fiery Leo child. 🌙♌️✨ And one thing that s for sure- There will never be a dull moment for the rest of our lives 🤸

✨Today is the day ✨ The Lion’s Gate Portal peaks on 8/8, opening a powerful cosmic doorway. This time is all about transformation, intuition, and aligning with your soul’s true path. The Sun in Leo and the star Sirius connect, bringing high-frequency energy and a chance to manifest your deepest desires.

8/8 symbolizes infinity, abundance, and spiritual flow. It’s the perfect moment to set intentions, embrace your truth, and step boldly into your power. Trust the energy of the portal—it’s your time to rise and shine.

July 26 – August 11
The most powerful manifestation portal of the year is here: The Lion’s Gate is open. 🦁✨

Peaking on 8/8, this cosmic window aligns Sirius—our spiritual sun—with the Galactic Center, creating an energetic doorway that amplifies your intentions and dreams. 🌌

This is your invitation to align, activate, and manifest with the full support of the Universe.

✨ Are you ready to walk through and claim your power?

7/7 • Sirius Gateway ✨
Today we stand in the heart of a cosmic portal, as our earthly Sun aligns with Sirius—our Spiritual Sun.

Take a moment to visualize light codes streaming through your crown or third eye.
To receive. To remember.

This is a day for deep soul sight—an opening to higher realms, expanded consciousness, your soul self, and your purpose.

Let the light move through you.
Let your soul speak louder than your fear.
Let yourself remember who you are.

Ask yourself:
What am I here to do?
What am I ready to become?

Let the answers rise. 🌌
