Welcome, sweet sister

As I sit here on the throne with the shower running desperate for an idea on how to introduce myself  to you, I realize that this is exactly how. We meet at the center of our humanity. Connection happens because in fact we are more alike than we are different.  Vulnerability removes the layers of distance and difference between us rather quickly. As I sit here dropping a deuce writing, waiting for the water to warm up, you may be dropping one too, warming your own shower, letting the steam brace you against an early spring morning. Except you are reading.  No matter how unique we claim to be and clearly are, we are also so much the same.

All I’m worried about is if you’ll like me… do you do that? Move through the world adjusting and accommodating the needs of others before your own? Wondering how people feel about you more than how you feel about them? Yeah, me too.

It matters to me that you read my words and find them interesting, That the words here resonate with you on a deep level and provoke curiosity around healing…As I approach the story of how my business comes to be I’m really thinking about you. Have you been sitting on a dream as i have? I think maybe I have held on to my dreams so tightly, not letting them have enough air and space. Eventually the dream nudges in such an irresistible way. One day, maybe on the throne 🚽, like me lol,  your courage or inspiration will become.

You see, I am a writer. I do many things to earn my living that I also love. But writing is the thing. My thing.

Every wish leans towards the light of this one possibility. Maybe I can spend my life exploring, feeling, enjoying and writing. What’s your dream? It might be a challenge finding that, figuring out that special detail is sometimes other than easy. Especially, if you haven’t been resting well or managing the limits and circumstances of life with ease. We all had a big challenge last year. IDK if it did something to you but it sure did wake me up to my life and what matters most to me. I feel ready to live as I dream it. For a long time i was ashamed of my procrastination. Nothing needs to be forced or pushed, there is a way to slow down and tune. The patriarchy will have us believe that we must be productive and crush goals. But now I think my slowness is not procrastination but intuition, timing and flow. It let me nurture myself, which I needed. Getting basic needs met lends a safety conducive to creativity.

All that time I spent dreaming and feeling guilty about not doing. I realize now was a waste of energy. I wasn’t stalling, I was incubating, building strength, gaining clarity. What I have to say about the trajectory of my life today feels so different than it did 5 years ago.  Back then I chose to end my marriage and disrupt my home and the lives of my children. Back then all I could think about was what’s going to happen to us. How will I ever be able to do this?

My family will never be the same because of this and still I had to do it. I needed to be brave in the face of challenges and obstacles. I thought I had to work 3 jobs just like my mom did, I had to sacrifice the dream of my heart so I could get us to stable ground. So the aftershocks of the breakup could stop rattling us. It took some time. Now that it feels like ive come to the other side of this situation, I see how much i limited myself. I can feel how hard i was on myself. I’m here to rectify this and share a practice that enters into right relationship with all we do. There is a way to align. There is a way to make this easy. For people like me, to exist as a fully expressed person, is exactly what the world needs. It’s what I need.

It means going slow.

So for the women and people out there who, like me, are figuring it out … If you are heartbroken and still hopeful. I am with you. The dream doesn’t leave you no matter how low it gets. In fact, it’s what keeps you, idk, alive…?

Maybe it feels like you are bringing yourself back to life, they say the comeback is always greater than the set back. In the process, on the journey, it is so much sweeter when a sister is with you.

Here comes the birth story of a business. Stories, inspirations, practices and services for a life well lived. Joy regardless of circumstance.

There is a way to enjoy what is already here, even though it’s other than easy. It just may be the way to our dreams. For me, that way has been going so slow with my feelings and thoughts, listening deeply to my own voice, my inner wisdom. There are some practices that helped me get to my center. They might nudge you along the way of finding yours too.

Here you will find monthly writing, weekly classes, exclusive retreats and workshops. You can also visit my shop and buy my self published book, La Tunca. I see many more stories in my future and am grateful for your attention. This simple gesture you give me of reading my words to the end nourishes me. It feeds the dream. Hopefully, mine and yours.
