A hand-drawn custom portrait makes a thoughtful and quirky gift to memorialize an upcoming graduation, wedding or commitment, baby shower, friend's birthday, adoption gift, anniversary, graduation, housewarming, new job, retirement or just because you are thinking of someone. This can be a family portrait, group of friends, book-club, team, brothers and sisters, wedding party, baby's first birthday party, or other special group. I'll turn your description and/or photos into a one-of-a-kind drawing. My goal for the drawing is to make you smile when you see it. This listing is for a custom portrait of SIX PEOPLE + TWO DOGS + ONE CAT. Drawings pictured here are not available (but if you love them I can create something very similar.) ……………………………………………………………………………… This listing is for an actual drawing (not a digital print) using colored pencil on 6 x 8 inch (15.24 x 20.32 centimeters) or 8 x 10" (20.32 x 25.4cm) archival paper. To see more of my custom portraits and get ideas: peopleyoumaymeet.com instagram.com/peopleyoumaymeet …………………………………………………………………………… What to do: 1. Click "request a custom order" or the "ask a question" button if you have questions or need help figuring out what listing(s) will work for your idea. **Please make sure to check your spam folder. You will always hear from me within 24 hours of your convo.** 2. I'll create a custom listing just for you or point you in the direction of an existing listing. Purchase the listing. 3. Through the Etsy message feature or via email ([email protected]), send one or more photos of the people you'd like drawn. Don't stress about this part, I just need one face-forward view of each person and pet, and otherwise almost any photo will work. I like to see people in their element, acting goofy, being themselves. Send as many photos as you'd like. 4. Let me know if you'd like the subjects posed a certain way (holding hands, arms around each other, jumping etc.) Want particular outfits? Let me know. 5. When the portrait is done, I wrap it up safely and put it in the US mail. My typical turnaround time is 2-4 weeks, though this often gets longer around holiday times. For the latest turnaround time, click the "shipping & polices" tab at the top of this description. If you need it faster than what the turnaround there says, get in touch and let me know when you need the portrait in hand by and I will let you know what is possible. If you would like the ability to preview the drawing and/or making changes, please check out my policies: https://www.etsy.com/shop/PeopleYouMayMeet?ref=listing-shop2-all-items-count#policies One of my favorite parts of the process is hearing from you about the subjects of the portrait. I'm happy to make suggestions, help whittle down ideas, or simply let inspiration from your photos and stories take over. …………………………………………………………………………………………….. High quality materials include: Thick, archival paper in neutral tones. For those of you who are paper-enthusiasts, I use Rives BFK which is mouldmade in France, 100% cotton, is acid free and light on the sizing leaving it soft, pliable and delightful. I tear the large sheets down to size, so you will see a fibrous edge and may see a watermark and/or natural deckle. Prismacolor pencils. These are not the colored pencils you remember from elementary school! They are professional quality pencils that feature high quality pigments in a soft, blend-able core for rich color saturation. The result is a much brighter and vibrant drawing than we were ever able to achieve in 4th grade. The image ends up with a semi-gloss from the blended layers of colored pencil while the paper surrounding the images remains lightly textured. These are heirloom-quality materials. …………………………………………………………………………………………….. This is why I make portraits: "Tracie drew me the most wonderful tear jerking, beautifully bittersweet, heart warming & meaningful family portrait I have laid eyes on. We conversed many time and I sent many pictures of my family hoping she would pick up some sort of energy. SHE DID! Tracie even included the spirit of my daughter that had passed away. It brings me tears of happiness to even write this review. Thank You Deeply." "Tracie, WE LOVE OUR PORTRAIT!!!!! Thank you so much for our wonderful family portrait + pet. You did such a phenomenal job capturing us, our son, and our dog based on the photos we sent and we simply couldn't be happier. You were so helpful during our ordering process. I was surprised how simple it was, and how fast the portrait arrived. We will be ordering more for upcoming occasions!

In a world where grief and loss are all too common, it takes a special kind of person to help others heal. Therapists are among those who dedicate their lives to helping people find their way through the darkness of loss and emerge stronger and more resilient on the other side. One such therapist is Emily, who has been working in the field for over a decade. Emily has helped countless individuals and families navigate the complexities of grief and loss, drawing on her extensive training and her own personal experiences of loss to provide compassionate and effective care. Behind the scenes, Emily's work is both challenging and rewarding. She spends long hours listening to her clients' stories, helping them to process their emotions and find new ways of coping with their grief. She often works with clients who are in the midst of intense emotional pain, providing a safe and non-judgmental space for them to express their feelings and work through their struggles. One analogy that Emily often uses to help her clients understand the process of grief and healing is that of a river. Just as a river can be calm and peaceful at times, and raging and turbulent at others, so too can the journey of grief be both calm and chaotic. But, like a river, the journey of grief ultimately flows towards the ocean of healing and acceptance. Emily knows firsthand how difficult the journey of grief can be. She lost her own father to cancer several years ago, an experience that has shaped her approach to her work as a therapist. She understands the complex emotions that arise when a loved one is lost, and she draws on her own experiences of grief and healing to help her clients find their own path through the darkness. For Emily, the most rewarding part of her work is seeing her clients emerge from the darkness of grief and begin to embrace life again. She has seen firsthand the incredible resilience of the human spirit, and the power of love and connection to help people heal from even the most profound losses. In addition to therapists, chaplains also play a crucial role in helping people find healing after loss. Chaplains provide spiritual and emotional support to patients and their families, helping them to connect with their faith and find meaning and purpose in the midst of difficult times. One chaplain, named David, has been serving in the field for over 20 years. David has worked with people from all walks of life, helping them to find comfort and solace in their faith during times of loss and grief. For David, the key to his work is building strong relationships with his clients, and helping them to feel seen, heard, and understood. He spends time getting to know his clients on a personal level, learning about their backgrounds, beliefs, and values, and working to create a safe and supportive space for them to explore their emotions and find healing. Like Emily, David also uses analogies to help his clients understand the process of grief and healing. He often compares the journey of grief to a tree, with the roots representing the deep emotions and pain of loss, and the branches representing the growth and healing that come with time and care. Through their work, both Emily and David have seen firsthand the power of human connection, love, and empathy to help people find healing after loss. They have helped countless individuals and families navigate the complexities of grief and emerge stronger, more resilient, and more connected to life and love. And while the work is often challenging and emotionally demanding, both Emily and David remain committed to their clients and to the vital importance of healing after loss. In conclusion, the healing power of therapists and chaplains cannot be underestimated. These professionals possess a unique set of skills and expertise that can help individuals find comfort, peace, and healing during a time of loss. Whether it's through talk therapy, spiritual guidance, or a combination of both, these compassionate caregivers offer a listening ear, a kind heart, and a helping hand to those in need. It takes a special kind of person to dedicate their life to helping others heal from emotional wounds. Therapists and chaplains possess the patience, empathy, and understanding needed to walk alongside individuals during their darkest days. They provide a safe space for people to process their grief, find meaning and purpose, and begin to rebuild their lives. If you're struggling with the loss of a loved one, don't hesitate to seek the help of a therapist or chaplain. They have the skills and expertise needed to help you heal from the inside out. It might be the medicine that heals your wounded heart and helps you move forward with hope and strength. Remember, you don't have to go through this alone. There are caring professionals out there ready and willing to help you on your journey to healing.

“The most common ego identifications have to do with possessions, the work you do, social status and recognition, knowledge and education, physical appearance, special abilities, relationships, personal and family history, belief systems, and often also political, nationalistic, racial, religious, and other collective identifications. None of these is you.” ~Eckhart Tolle Growing up in a patriarchal and hierarchical society, I learned to see certain people as superior to me and therefore placed them on pedestals: teachers, authority figures, managers… This behavior transformed me into a quite reserved, almost submissive version of myself, in contrast to my outspoken feminist persona outside of those circles. I noticed a shift even in interactions with peers who had previously been of “equal rank.” Once they assumed higher positions, I would adopt a quiet, subordinate demeanor. This left me feeling frustrated with myself and diminished, unable to express myself freely in their presence. Sadly, this tendency to idolize some people isn’t unique to me. It’s a societal phenomenon I’ve observed not only within myself but also among clients and peers. Especially women. We often elevate individuals, attributing to them qualities we admire or perceive as superior to our own. This hierarchical mindset is deeply entrenched in our society’s values, which prioritize certain external things such as wealth, success, gender, ethnicity, fame, and appearance. Hierarchies rank individuals according to certain criteria, perpetuating inequality and often leading to abuse and trauma. We see echoes of this in racial and gender discrimination, religious abuse scandals, and instances of power abuse in various fields like the field I love and teach, yoga. It’s imperative to dismantle this hierarchical ranking of human worth. Every individual, regardless of title, gender, race, or ability, is inherently deserving of love and respect simply by virtue of being human. This seems obvious and a bit silly to write really, but we’ve yet to truly understand and embody this as a collective. And until we internalize this truth on an individual level, systemic change will remain elusive. Today, I rarely feel invisible or submissive in front of anyone. I don’t see anyone as better or worse than me. We’re all just humans living different life experiences. And if I find myself going back to feeling inadequate or superior to someone, I am able to observe my bias and release that judgment. This is an empowering, loving way to live. It took a bit of effort, studying and applying neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), and practicing yoga not just as an exercise but as a way of living, but I now know it is possible, with patience, awareness, and practice. Here are some key steps to start unlearning this hierarchical model and embrace the truth of your inherent worthiness. 1. Recognize hierarchical thinking and be curious. Begin by identifying any limiting beliefs or assumptions related to hierarchy or judgment of others. These beliefs may include ideas such as “some people are inherently better or worse than others.” Ask yourself with radical honesty: Who do I see as better or worse than me? When you catch yourself judging others negatively, replace it with curiosity. Explore why you perceive their behaviors as unacceptable, where this belief of yours is coming from, and consider their perspective. When you catch yourself putting others on a pedestal, be curious. Explore why you perceive them as “better” than you. What about what they have or do makes them better? Where is this belief of yours coming from? What is the limiting belief you hold about yourself? Recognize that both ends of judgment come from a place of hurt or insecurity within yourself. In my formative years, I put on a pedestal individuals who held roles as educators and those who belonged to families with greater financial means than my own. Subconsciously, there was also a strong tendency to put men on that pedestal. As I transitioned into adulthood, this pattern persisted in the workplace, where I found myself placing male superiors on pedestals, and in my early relationships, where I did the same with romantic partners and forgot myself in the process. It required a significant amount of introspection and self-awareness to recognize and address these deeply ingrained hierarchical biases, particularly those operating at an unconscious level. To bring awareness to your own beliefs, simply observe those moments when you feel small, invisible, or incapable of speaking out or being authentically yourself because you are in front of a specific person or group of persons. Those are the people you put on pedestal. 2. Explore and address unconscious bias. It’s important to investigate our unconscious biases, especially those toward specific races, genders, disabilities, ages, and other identities. These biases often lurk beneath the surface, making them challenging to identify. Engage in discussions with friends from diverse backgrounds to gain insight into their experiences and perspectives. Listen attentively to their stories of bias, discrimination, and the barriers they face. For example, challenge your assumptions by questioning who you perceive as capable professionals or leaders. If your mental image primarily consists of tall white men, it’s a sign of an unconscious bias that needs addressing. Similarly, if your workplace lacks diversity at the top and claims to be unbiased, it’s essential to recognize the discrepancy. Approach this exploration with curiosity and kindness toward yourself. Don’t hesitate to seek assistance along the way. After becoming aware of my biases, I felt compelled to engage in difficult conversations, particularly with the men in my life. I vividly recall a discomforting dialogue with a high-ranking manager at a large corporation, during which I highlighted the noticeable lack of diversity in the upper echelons, consisting predominantly of tall white men. I confronted the inherent bias within the company’s structure, particularly its disposition toward women. These are the hard but necessary conversations you can have when you reestablish your connection to yourself and a non-hierarchical mindset. These conversations can be uncomfortable, especially when you are in front of people who have not uncovered their unconscious bias, but they are seeds of change. Choose discomfort over staying small. 3. Humanize those on pedestals. If you find yourself placing someone on a pedestal, remind yourself that they are human too, prone to mistakes and vulnerabilities. Reflect on the qualities you admire in them and recognize that you possess those qualities too. Perhaps you find yourself admiring someone for their confidence and outspokenness, their beautiful home, or the loving family they’ve built. Consider this a message to introspect: why do these aspects hold value for you? It could be a learned belief that no longer serves you, which you can reframe or release. Alternatively, it might represent a genuine longing within your heart. In that case, view it as an intention—something to nurture within yourself, such as confidence—rather than a cause for feeling inferior. Or, if you’ve always seen authority figures as infallible, challenge this notion by recalling instances of their fallibility or unjust actions. Similarly, if you tend to idealise a partner or someone else in your life, reflect on whether this pattern echoes a past relationship dynamic, possibly with a parental figure. Question the reasons behind this pedestal and consider releasing any outdated beliefs associated with it. Keep in mind that liberating someone from the burden of unrealistic expectations can be empowering for both parties. Embrace their humanity, allowing room for growth and imperfection within the relationship. However, be prepared for the possibility that a shift in your belief might alter or even end the relationship—and that’s okay. Relationships evolve, and sometimes letting go is necessary for personal and mutual growth. Moreover, if you encounter inappropriate behaviour from someone in authority, refuse to normalize such conduct. Lastly, challenge any notions of superiority based on personality types, such as extroversion over introversion. Remind yourself that everyone experiences moments of insecurity and doubt. Whether you’re an extrovert or introvert, recognize your inherent worth and value as a unique individual. 4. Reconnect with self-love. Once you find within yourself a place of love and acceptance, despite your differences, quirks, and the challenges you face, you will be able to be loving and accepting of others’ differences. Many mindfulness or somatic practices have supported my journey to acknowledge my innate worth and lovability. Here is one of my favorite ones: place one hand on your heart and the other on your belly, breathe deeply, and remember the warmth and love you experienced in your mother’s womb. Acknowledge the truth that you are deserving of love and respect, regardless of external measures of success or worth. If this is hard for you because you have been lost in the trance of unworthiness for a long time, it is okay. Maybe start modeling the behavior of someone who embodies equality, empowerment, and self-love. Spend time in nature; nature is healing and non-judgmental. I know from personal and coaching experience that this is not the easiest step. It is a daily practice. It is a daily remembrance. This is how I found true liberation. And some days are easier than others. On the hard days, I come back to my heart space, to my center, reminding myself that I am loved, with conviction, sincerity, and compassion. Once you truly embody that knowing, not much can shake you to the core and make you feel invisible. You can see yourself for who you are, and you can see people where they are, at their level of consciousness. No more getting lost in the trance of unworthiness when certain people show up. 5. Rewire your mind. Choose a new set of beliefs regarding yourself and others. Like the belief that everyone is worthy of love, respect, and compassion. Visualize yourself interacting confidently and assertively with others in situations where hierarchical thinking may have previously held you back. One potent technique from NLP that I frequently practice myself and with my clients involves creating positive anchors associated with certain states of being or feelings—for this specific example, feelings of equality, empowerment, and self-worth. An anchor can be as simple as taking a deep breath, adopting an empowering posture such as standing tall with hands on hips, using a discreet point on your body (like pressing a point on your hand or using a finger) while remembering or imagining and feeling the sensation in your body of a time with you felt loved and empowered. Amplify that feeling as much as you can while you activate that posture, breath, point in your body. Since the body retains these associations, whenever hierarchical thinking creeps in, triggering these anchors can serve as a powerful reminder of your inherent value and equality with others. You can also use a mantra in combination to those anchors (an affirmation you repeat to yourself). A few examples: I am worthy of love, I deserve to be here, I am loved…. Let’s envision a new system of horizontal hierarchy—one where each individual’s unique gifts and strengths are celebrated, and differences are embraced. By dismantling hierarchical systems and embracing equality, we can create a more just, fulfilling world for all.
