Jess and Iselle are friends and neighbors who’ve had long summer talks in the sun that always included Jess sharing amazing stories about her life.
These stories fascinated Iselle and she asked Jess if they could shared with the world.
Welcome to Dancing With Darkness.
In the next five episodes we’ll take you on a journey down some dark roads.
We’ll run into into melting snow, a dancefloor, some leeches and a red planetary serpent.
Can you keep dancing when you’re diagnosed with stage 4 cancer at age 37?
Find out you have mutant DNA?
Get mud all over your new shoes and loose your bestie b4 the highschool dance?
How do you keep your strength and find joy? How do you focus on the light?
Jess shares intimate essays about her constant Dance with Darkness.
For the past 10 years, she's been known for her bright shiny neon light side through her design practice.
But what’s there when the lights go out, when she's offstage and alone?
She dances with darkness, and we hope to inspire you to keep dancing too.
