When Speaking Up Feels Scarier Than the Abuse
4 days ago • 6 min readHi Reader - I was aggressively bullied over the weekend, and I want to tell you what I learned. Content Note: This story includes verbal aggression, trauma response, and reflections on spiritual bypassing and speaking up after abuse. Please take care of your nervous system and pause if needed. 💛 I was walking my favorite trail behind our house — something I do multiple times a day — and decided to send a Marco Polo message to a friend as I walked. Mid-story, I noticed someone coming toward me...
READ POSTThere's More Than One Way To The Tree
12 days ago • 2 min readHi Reader - I've spent most of my life as a black-and-white thinker. Everything fit so neatly into the boxes of right or wrong, good or bad. Until, all of a sudden, that didn’t work anymore. Seeing nuance — and even more so, allowing nuance to exist in our worldview — is a sign of spiritual evolution and maturity. Black-and-white thinking isn’t bad; it’s just developmental. (I say this to myself every time I find myself back in that place, to offer compassion to the parts of me that still go...

23 days ago • 2 min readHi Reader - One of the most powerful ways to practice wholeness is learning to see both the light and the shadow in everything. We humans tend to swing toward extremes. We label things as all good or all bad,healing or stuck,success or failure. But the truth is—there’s always a healthy version and a distorted version of every path. It’s when we go too far in one direction that we enter the shadow. Even Mother Nature teaches us this. When the sun is at its most intense, the shadows stretch the...
READ POSTWhen you create from safety, everything changes
about 1 month ago • 1 min readHi Reader - I want to tell you about the moment everything changed. For months, my Creator Field Notes project sat untouched. Every time I opened the files, I felt... nothing. Resistance. Exhaustion. Like this project was so massive and big and I just want to move forward creating content about all the new things I'm learning but I couldn't do that until I had honored the past in a way that I was proud of.
