Aside from crusty dried up eye drop gunk in my eye lashes, I feel awesome! My vision is steadily improving. I can already see really well. My eyes get dry really easily, so I'm applying drops frequently. I'm going back to the Dr. today for my follow up appointment.

I spent the second half of yesterday getting caught up on organizing the hoop class schedule for August, during which wei're offering some great pre-Burn workshops. Looks like the teaching tour is going to have to wait until September. I'm also prepping for next week's teacher training, happening on the 2-3rd. I met with a couple of the registrants on Wed, which stoked my enthusiasm for training new teachers. I love my job.

This photo is from Thursday last week, a milestone for me. I was hired for the VIP premier of the new Batman movie. It was a milestone because it was one of the highest paying gigs I've done so far, and it was really encouraging of me charging what I've been wanting to earn for performance. Part of that equation has been the evolution of me offering performance packages that draw on my diversity of skills. I used to just offer hooping for x minutes for x dollars, which didn't get me very far. Now I schedule a package for 2-3 hours that includes stilting, gogo dancing, fire performance, ambient characters, face painting, and of course hooping. At this event I had 6 costume changes, all in the theme of the event.

Another evolution for me has been in the realm of wellness coaching. I'm working with two clients right now who are providing me with the opportunity to really use diverse skills that I have been learning in Jason McClain's coaching the life coach program. It is SO rewarding to see these clients transforming over a matter of just a few weeks. I"m looking forward to what the following months will bring for them and myself.
