Hi Hi, I’m Shesha Love.
I am a visual alchemist, author, independent publisher, and trauma-informed peer worker based out of Toronto, Canada. My entire creative practice is rooted in a single, unshakeable philosophy: Everyone deserves somewhere soft to land.
I don't believe in separating art from advocacy, and I don't believe in a sterile approach to healing. I operate with a soft heart, strong boundaries, and an active dedication to doing no harm while taking zero shit.
My work is for the dreamers, the over-thinkers, the deeply sensitive souls, and the little hearts trying to navigate a world that often feels far too loud. Whether I am writing a children's book, carving raw media, or holding a quiet digital container for an emotional release, my mission remains entirely the same: helping you feel seen, grounded, and a little less alone in the world.
About Shesha Love
Visual Alchemist • Hearthkeeper • Peer Support Worker
The Foundation Behind the Workspace
What I bring to my creative studio isn’t just artistic inspiration—The work I do across my universe is backed by over 20 years of rigorous, real-world experience on the front lines of human care, support, data integrity, administrative operations, and community advocacy.
My professional background bridges early childhood development, structured educational administration, crisis stabilization, and independent community support:
-
Early Childhood Development & Youth Advocacy: More than a decade spent supervising and designing structured programming within childcare networks, the YMCA/YWCA systems, emergency shelters, and private households. I specialize in providing individualized, one-to-one behavioral and emotional support for neurodivergent youth and children with Autism, helping families establish peaceful daily routines and safe learning environments.
-
Grounded Systems & Institutional Operations: Extensive tenure working as a school administrator and technical coordinator. I am a master of data integrity, dual-screen technical workflows, record management, and handling sensitive, highly confidential information with absolute discretion and professional judgment. I keep the backend of my world completely secure so the front end can remain perfectly soft.
-
Evidence-Based Peer Support: My intuitive care work is reinforced by formal training. Thanks to the RBC Foundation BIPOC Peer Supporter Certification Initiative, I am a Certified Peer Support Worker (CPSW) in progress registered with Peer Canada. My baseline crisis and wellness qualifications include WRAP Level 1 (Wellness Recovery Action Plan via Gerstein Crisis Clinic), safeTALK Certification (Suicide Alertness Training via LivingWorks), and First Aid & CPR / AED Level C.
Navigating The Neighbourverse
The Neighbourverse is my entire creative universe. Within this cosmos, every branch operates as its own distinct, specialized little world:
🎨 Shesha Love's Studio
The primary home for MY personal creations. This world houses my fine art canvas paintings, original fiber arts (including handmade cross-stitch and custom embroidery patches), future publications, apparel collections, independent studio merchandise, prints, and public commission work.
The exclusive public home for my mother’s private studio overflow. Each piece is a strict 1-of-1 wearable art original, handcrafted using pure, all-natural materials chosen intentionally to support both physical and spiritual health.
🔮 Molasses & Honey
The sacred world for my spiritual and esoteric works. This space features my custom-designed tarot cards, genuine selenite charging plates for crystals, and hand-bound grimoires. This world is actively expanding to include ethically sourced crystals and gemstones, as well as a curated library of foundational spiritual reference literature.
🪵 Carmichael's Workshop
The dedicated physical preservation space for my late father’s legacy. This workshop is where his beautiful raw wood carvings, intricate wood sculptures, and original paintings are given a permanent home to be seen, appreciated, and purchased by those who deeply resonate with his spirit.

The central mental health and emotional wellness branch of the universe. This world is an educational resource dedicated to teaching individuals how to better look after their mental, emotional, and physical health, while providing practical tools on how to be a safe space for those around them who are struggling.

An offshoot world taking place in the village of Willow Burrow on the planet The Rich Little Bunny. This is my mindful children's literature collection, explicitly built to bridge the gap between early childhood academia and true emotional intelligence.
Housed exclusively within this world, these sessions provide a steady, confidential, and completely judgment-free virtual container to safely unload emotional fog, process heavy mental noise, and return to your body and breath.
A dedicated, compassionate offshoot of The Rich Little Bunny built exclusively to provide seamless technical coordination and live-streaming support for remote funerals, janazas, and memorial packages worldwide. It has nothing to do with standard venting; it is an intentional, respectful digital sanctuary created solely to allow long-distance families a safe space to connect and grieve.
My Moto
Do no harm.
Take no shit.
Soft heart. Strong boundaries.
