This being human thing? It can be hard.

Daily, we face challenges - whether it be hitting all red lights or spilling coffee on our new white shirt. (I no longer wear white for this reason btw)... and then there are the big challenges too. 

So let's normalize being human, create conversations around the large and small trials life brings and welcome in our triumphs too.
Improvisation has helped me to cultivate a flexible (and fun) mindset and I'd love to share that expertise with you!
After people hear me speak they will feel relief -- because my speech will empower them to release judgement, shed shame, cultivate self-compassion, and discover joy along the way.

The Blog: read on substack! 
A blog series of casual daily musings.
Written over the past few years, these nonlinear day-in-the-life observations highlight a moment in time that unfolds into a life lesson learned through the yes, AND lens of improv — offering awareness about ourselves and the world around us. 
What x taught me about y is meant to inspire, spark thought, and ultimately — at least, most of the time — lighten your day (just a bit). 
Enjoy, Diana
