Many women have been brainwashed to believe they are not enough or too much, ie - who they are at their core &/or the qualities that are a part of their essence - is unlovable.

These beliefs drive us to create lives that are not wholly are own.

Carl Jung said: “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you’ll call it fate.”

Shame lives in the shadows, the unconscious; hiding but directing the show.

Until you are willing to find approval for all the ostensibly “unlovable” parts of yourself & your desires, you will “perfect” the pretty cage & wonder why you are unfulfilled, stuck, empty and hungry for more.

There is a moment in many a woman’s life when she realizes that the life she’s been living isn’t wholly the one she’s here for.

Shes followed the prescribed path and it “worked”, until it stopped.
It “worked” until the symptoms - emotional, mental, physical, spiritual - get louder.

She cant ignore them any longer so she tries harder to “fix” something so she can “be happier.”

She’s still missing the deeper message tho.

What if nothing’s broken but you simply need to tell yourself the truths about what you want (and no longer want)?

What if your true desires are the most sacred path of your soul?

Made this into a reel because you requested 🥰

Guys, what are we going to do?
Yes AI is here…
How can we be thoughtful about using it so that we do not replace our humanity?
How do we stay with the real heart-to-heart human connection?
How do we let love & creation pour thru us, in this day & age when everything is starting to sound…neutralized and the same?

Things that are real to me…

We are lost if we disconnect.
We are empty if we can’t touch the real & let it touch us.
And once you’ve tasted it - truly tasted real & let it matter - you simply find anything else almost intolerable.
Like nails on a chalkboard, it simply feels “off.”

We live in a world that idealizes the curated perfection; and if you look around: THIS IS NOT WORKING.

We are being asked - as humans - to remember the real.

So tell me: What is REAL to you?

Written in the incomparable ’s writing class a few seasons ago. If you want to touch your own real - join her next one. (Starts may 17). Seriously.

Imagine a world where every woman told the truth about her desires, and allowed herself to receive them instead of playing the guilt-martyr-who me, im fiiiiine with the crumbs game.

A well-fed woman is the answer to everything 😍

Joy, grief, the moon & her teachings.
Instagram says this is too long.
I “should” edit it and maybe i will one day and maybe I wont.

Written in ’s immersion which are magic & if you want to write or just open to feelings of deep truth, join her next one.

The rules that have defined how women should age (and, frankly, be) were not created FOR women to thrive.

They were created to shrink our power, our knowing, our juice - especially as we “age” because women with the fullness of who they are truly are “dangerous “ to a culture that needs to continue to extract from the feminine to survive.

You are not required to follow the rules you may have swallowed whole (simply by swimming in a constant sea of distorted narratives).

It’s time to write your own narrative: one that has you embracing & embodying your fullest self & your true-est most meaningful path to date.

Join me for 7 days where we defy the shame-narrative, identify our personal ageless-eros-archetype, and tap into the juice that fuels your most alive, connected life.
Link in bio for But You Dont Look 60. We start monday.

This next phase? ALL-IN.

What is life if not to be fully lived, fully turned on, fully alive?

“But You Don’t Look 60” is a 7-day reclamation for women who are ready to not only defy the tired paradigms on age & “shoulds,”, but write their own timelines based on their own ageless-eros-archetype 💫💃🏻💫

Lets go sisters. DM me to learn more 🎉
