On Valentines day I was invited to go see a performance at a school. I showed up and realized it wasn’t just a bunch of little kids performing something cute… It was young women performing poetry and monologues bringing awareness to violence to women around the world. While it was a bit of a recalibration to realize the topic was so deep and painful, it was inspiring and eye opening.

I am sending you a lot of love as we move from summer into fall (or winter into spring, depending on where you are in the world).

People have been asking me when the Trauma Series I have been developing will be ready - I'm excited to share with you that it's coming soon and will be here at the end of October (just about in time for Halloween...).

I made you a short video with some more details.

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about all those unconscious ways our bodies try to help us out.  Even when we think they’re doing the opposite. In this Vlog, I share about something I’ve noticed in my own life around how often when there’s been any kind of friction (or a tiny glimpse that friction could be there), my body sometimes goes into an unconscious pain reaction.  Well… not so unconscious anymore… busted!

It is the end of week 1 of 4 in the Mexican jungle with nearly 50 women.  3 weeks to go, each new group of 50 women. Stunned. Awed. Grateful. I am feeling wild and on a mission.  

These women come here as we support them through many processes, and layer by layer they melt away so much shame, conditioning, fear and grief - all the ways they’ve been taught to be small and less alive.  

One of the ways we do this is through celebration and permission and invitations to allow every woman to be FULLY themselves in every moment.  In blissful pleasure, in dark frightened shadows, in sheer contentment, in perfectionism and control, in quietness, in loudness, and everything in between.

Celebrating each other and ourselves is NOT something most of us has been taught.  The power of truly giving ourselves and each other permission and saying yes is revolutionary.
