Instead, the audio player lives inside each individual article itself. Browse through the feed, find something…

  • HOW TO CATCH YOUR DREAMS

    We are all creators of our own reality. Our thoughts are what manifest into the kind of lives we lead. Part of the manifesting process is letting go and trusting that the universe will deliver what we have asked for. But sometimes we get scared that if we let go, our dreams might not come…

  • HOW TWIN FLAMES LEAD PARALLEL LIVES

    When I was a child sitting in the back seat of my parents’ car, watching the cars go by, every once in a while a limousine would go by, and I’d stare with great interest. I wondered who was in there. Somehow I knew that my significant other would be someone famous. I wanted to be famous,…

  • PRINCE, SOMEWHERE HERE ON EARTH IS ABOUT TWIN FLAMES

  • PRINCE; “I STILL EXIST”, HELLO FROM THE OTHER SIDE

    As my connection Prince’s spirit grew stronger, I could feel his energy more and more intensely. I felt his touch, I felt him hovering over me, holding my hand. It got to the point where he could move my body with his energy (as long as I allow it). One day I said to him,…

  • PRINCE, THE SURRENDERING SOUL – FUTURE SOUL SONG INTERPRETATION

    Something that is the secret to Prince’s genius is that he channeled his music, meaning he tapped into a higher source to create his music. Intuition and creativity are one in the same. When you tap into one, you tap into the other. I discovered this for myself when I worked on myself spiritually, developing my intuition…

  • REJECTED FOR BEING “TOO PRETTY”? WHY THE ART WORLD LIKES DARK ART

    I recently had a meeting with an art curator. She told me that my work was “too pretty” and that might be a problem.  Believe me, as ridiculous as the statement sounds, I knew what she was talking about. The art world hates pretty things. They don’t like that you like Monet. Apparently, they find…

  • MY TWIN FLAME IS PRINCE

    Ever since the passing of Prince, my life has been turned into something unexpected. It’s all been good. But surprising. A lot of catching up to do. I had posted on YouTube about my experience with the spirit of Prince. I had both positive and negative reactions from fans and followers of Prince. I wondered…

  • VIDEO: ON BEING A LEGALLY BLIND ARTIST

    For as long as I can remember, my vision has always been blurry. It did degrade somewhat as a I got older. But it has  been normal to me. As a teenager, I was diagnosed with Stargardt disease, a rare genetic condition that causes my extreme nearsightedness and blurry vision. I’ve always been visually inclined…

  • INTERVIEW WITH AN ARTIST: NEW VIDEO

    I am happy to announce the launch of Dreamer Gallery and its first exhibition in September. It;s been a dream of mine to create space for “conscious” art- art that is created to uplift the spirit of humanity. I’ve been busy creating new videos to talk about my work. Here’s my latest video where I…

  • HEAR ME SPEAK ABOUT SELF-LOVE

    I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted. Been busy working o a project set to launch in September. It’s called Love Bomb. See here. In the meantime, check out the Love Is A Verb podcast with Lauren Herrera, where I talk about self-love, disability, Numerology and intuition. http://www.laurenherrera.com/andreamai For more info on Numerology, see…

  • ONE THING YOU NEED BEFORE YOU APPROACH THE PRESS

    No matter what kind of business you own, there’s one thing that can really help boost the public perception of your brand. It’s an oldie, but a goodie, and that’s press coverage. While social media platforms have become the norm in marketing practices, there’s nothing like press coverage to boost your credibility. Because in the…

  • YOU CAN’T FAKE AUTHENTICITY

    Some time ago, I had my photograph taken by a professional photographer. I had my makeup all done up by an artist and she styled my hair with loads of dry shampoo. Though I looked great and the pictures looked nice., over time I felt like these pictures didn’t reflect me anymore. During the session…

  • LOVING ME LOVING YOU

    Today I am just f feeling super grateful and blessed. Though Spring so far has been cold, I found these blossoms in Kensington Market the other day. The colour is just so pretty. My thought for today is about Self-Love. Love yourself so that other can love you too. This is important. We talk about self-care…

  • WHAT I LEARNED FROM PRINCE

    Sorry I’ve been away fora bit. I’ve been on a crazy awesome journey where I met Prince, His Royal Badness. A huge lesson that I think we;re missing in the spiritual community is EMBODIMENT. We get so caught up nurturing our spirituality that we forget that we need to face the real world. The physical…
