Not necessarily to be a poet , but to be free, to feel deeply and to tell the truth. <\/p><p>Since then, poetry has been my sacred outlet. My rebellion. My confession booth. My temple. My transmission. It\u2019s where the wild and the wisdom, the pain and the joy, the grief and the ecstasy, find sacred union. <\/p><p>I write to remember. I write to thrive. I write to be alive. I write to show you that there\u2019s more to feel\u2014and that feeling is worth it!<\/p><p><strong>Why T-shirts?<\/strong><\/p><p>I love T-shirts! <\/p><p>I come from a family of textile manufacturers, a story that began with my grandfather in the 1920s. <\/p><p>To me, the T-shirt canvas is the\u00a0most powerful real-estate in the world, covering the hearts and chests of over a billion people per day. By expressing our passions with complete authenticity on this canvas, we reveal to the world who we are, what we love and what we wish to become.<\/p><p><strong>Healing\u00a0and Transformation<\/strong><\/p><p>My poetry is deeply influenced by my work in psychotherapy and philosophy, enabling people to cultivate a love affair with life.
