DETACHMENT 🍃

Many times we hold on to something, someone or some concept because of two F words.

FAMILIARITY + FEAR

The fear of the unknown and the discomfort shaking up our routine can be puzzling and plain old scary.😰 I think of these moments as when roots of a tree are growing and trying to make space, with inevitable tears and cracks on that road or dirt of where these limbs are trying to push through.🏋🏽‍♂️

Restricting ourselves with routine and familiarity, and muting our essence’s heart is the act of RESISTANCE. 🐃

We want to keep a perfect slate and any cracks occurring may seem like a flaw to what we think is this safe and current masterpiece we’ve working so hard for. 🎨

But what we fail to grasp is those cracks and scars are part our GROWTH. It means something AMAZING is about to happen! 🎟

Yes it make shake you up and smack you in the ground a little bit. But learn to dust yourself off is the act of CONSCIOUSLY releasing STALE ENERGY. ☄️

Two days ago, and with the new moon, I released my own stale energy. 💫 I thank my locks for giving me moments of confidence and beauty but today I want to admire the rawness of my bone structure, the childhood insecurities of “dumbo” ears I grew up hating, that random scar on my head I didn’t know of and just the simplicity - of my soul’s FREQUENCY. 🎼

Are you conscious of your frequency? Has stale energy been holding you back? I invite you to release and to allow those cracks for growth.🦋

You owe it to you!💓✨

Is it just me or is being in the Leo season got you feeling pretty and ready to roar? 🦁

Sometimes we have to cut more than just the dead ends. And I’m not talking only about hair. This can apply to people, things places and other dead cells. 💀

I’ve always been ear self-conscious and the more I experience life the more I tune to my own essence’s frequency.

No, Im not having a Britney moment as this was intentionally planned to grow the mane and donate to .for.kids - where they make wigs for kids with hair losing illnesses.

Today I shedded. I chopped my own hair and then shaved it myself. (Full video coming soon.)

Some people call it fearless. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I call it honoring ME and just not giving a 🦩.

Today I encourage you to tune into your our own unique frequency. Are you honoring yourself? Are you open to hear what it’s calling you for?👂

It speaks if you can quiet your mind and kill societal expectations.

5 years ago I was AFRAID. 😦

I got what I most wanted: my own paddleboard. But s* was HEAVY! And I felt weak at not being able to maneuver this 30+ pound oversized yoga SUP (stand up paddleboard), plus the paddle, plus the 10lb anchor weight.

I lived three blocks from the beach, and felt so many adventure opportunities wasted. Why? - Because I felt I couldn’t on my own.

A girl that fearlessly backpacked across continents alone, couldn’t maneuver her own possession in her own home. 😤

Pero por qué!? I think back.🤔

Probably because I didn’t try enough time, or want it bad enough to get creative. To research and find ways other strong independent women figure ways on their own with their equipment.

Time has passed and figuratively and metaphorically life has made me STRONGER. 💪🏽

Today I lean this on my hip and carry it blocks distance. Yes I have to stop and take some breaths and get my grip right. But every moment I’m out connected with my element - WATER - makes all the effort worth. It makes the awkwardness of crossing street lights and making traffic wait for me worth it. It makes the bruise on my hip the next day worth it. It makes the soreness on my shoulders from lifting it over my head to strap on my Jeep so worth it. And I feel damn stronger and stronger everytime I do it.

Don’t stop trying! No matter how weak, awkward or judged you feel. We’ll get there if it’s truly in our hearts.

Now get out there and dive into what you’ve been afraid of! 🦈

Cuddles with your best furfriend when you come home - just the best!💕

Some days I reflect and realize how grateful I am for how this buddy is more than cuddles and personal security. 🥊

Because of him, I’ve maintained active with walks, bike rides, park explorations and unexpected meetings with the most wonderful strangers. 👯‍♀️

Sometimes we adopt a pet thinking we’ll be the ones protecting saving them. Yeah maybe financially, since they can’t get a job without opposable thumbs and lack of vocab. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But in the end, when we truly commit to a pet, who’s the one that’s really rescuing whom?

OCEAN THERAPY 🌊
What better place than to find all the elements in one to recharge and be inspired?!

The EARTH beneath, firm and grounding - supporting, so strong! The WATER, ever changing always flexible and adaptable - non stopper . The AIR, for non well serving thoughts to fly with wind - refresh with a new breath. The FIRE sun beaming on me, recharging the battery - fire in the belly 🔥.
