Hi everyone! It’s been a little while since I’ve posted, and I wanted to catch you all up :)
Since late last year, I’ve been going through a big transition, leaving my job to step fully into running Negemow Roots full-time. It’s been exciting and a little overwhelming at times, but I’m really grateful I took this leap.
During this time, I’ve been prioritizing my mental and physical health and figuring out a balance that works for me. I’ve been building up my inventory and online shop, working on commission pieces, and occasionally hosting basket weaving workshops with Indigenous seniors and youth.
Becoming a small business owner comes with its challenges, especially working from home. Finding a rhythm and staying creatively motivated hasn’t always been easy, but I’m learning as I go.
One thing I’ve really been reminded of is how important community is. Connecting with others, especially fellow artists, continues to inspire and ground me. I’m so grateful for my previous job at the Truckhouse and the relationships and opportunities it has given me. The support and encouragement I received truly helped give me the confidence to take this step.
Also… my website is officially live! 🎉✨

I’m really excited to keep sharing more of my journey, along with new work and upcoming projects. Thank you so much for being here and supporting me 🤍
