The scene:
We are in Marfa, Texas sitting at one of the many tables in the gorgeous outdoor enclosed patio of Planet Marfa. It’s like a secret desert oasis that all the most interesting locals know about. The bar in the center of the patio resembles a treehouse. There’s also a teepee (that is a cave below ground)…and a school bus…and a dance floor…with a jungle gym! Wow. Join us inside this patio wonderland for a very sisterly, aquarian sharing of the life journey.

Highlights:
+ Planet Marfa is the first bar/restaurant she has owned
+ Buying a place to keep it the same - Project: Save Planet Marfa
+ “I don’t know anything about that but I’ll figure it out”
+ Working the Marfa radio station during the pandemic
+ Originally from Houston
+ Being a new business owner in a tight-knit town
+ Aquarians…
+ Falling in love with Marfa
+ Your slow-down place becoming your social place
+ Loving your staff and your regulars
+ Learning tenacity
+ Life events reflecting your strengths back to you
+ Empowering others instead of bossing
+ Learning to rely on others
+ Having a business that is visited by every kind of person
+ Enjoying watching people enjoy themselves
+ Coping mechanism: being needed
+ Knowing when to drop our childhood survival skills
+ Being confident and not giving a shit
+ Making music video covers in middle school
+ Loving yourself - being your own best friend
+ Being open to but not looking for a partner
+ Learning to take care of ourselves
+ Wanting to be a whore but behaving like an asexual
+ Flipping the script on crushes and seeing yourself in them
+ Falling in love with ourselves through the reflection we see in others
+ Nurturing our relationship with ourselves
+ Start where you are - and just smile at others

A taste:
“I used to come out here and it was quiet and I was peaceful and I’d spend a lot of time at my house…it’s where I would slow down and forget about my regular life.  So it’s a little strange now this is the place where I’m very busy…it’s kind of flipped, now Houston’s where I go to slow down.”

Mantra:
“I am here now.”
