How many times have we all said “I can’t because __________”?

What if we stepped into what lights us up, or something we are not even sure about yet just for the joy of it?

We’ve been doing that over here on repeat. Sometimes we hit a home run ⚾️ and sometimes we strike out ❌. THAT is what we are living into and want you to Join the conversation at 🎤 THE MESSY PROGRESS PODCAST 🎤. This is an opportunity to get connected even if you are feeling disconnected.

This week, the convo is with  - the founder of  , an activist for radical inclusion a teacher and a student of  and just a straight up incredible human!

Find it on   or wherever you 👂 to your podcasts. Episodes drop every Thursday! 💜

Stop. Drop. Meditate.
When given a chance (code for time, space and attention), the resistance is sitting right there with me-like and « old friend ».

Here’s the thing, being patient with the resistance, seeing it, feeling it, only then do I see how it’s everywhere...it gives me a shot at letting it go...and if that doesn’t quite happen, at least I can sit beside it instead of being crushed underneath it or swallowed by it.
Meditation . Discover it again for the 1st time. This sh*t works...

On Purpose. For years i thought I was clear on my purpose-the why am I here? I’d asked myself
so many times and had found a few answers... yet when I landed on it, I felt a charge through my whole body, a sweaty palms, dry mouth, nauseous aliveness. It brought me back full circle
to when I was a little kid, at home with my 5 siblings, even before I went to school. It all clicked for me: i was put on this planet to cause inclusion. ..
By living and being ON purpose, I am free to be who I am, letting others have their experience of me without needing to manage it. Living on purpose, intentionally, centered in my soul, it has a ripple effect i feel everywhere in my life. It makes choices more easeful, actions clearer, tough conversations instigated and there is less time spent in assessing, comparing or giving significance to bu****it outside of my control. ..
Work isn’t as much “work” anymore ; it’s a different experience-it’s sharing of who I am. What does it mean for you to be on purpose? How do you know?
Let us connect on that🤗..
I look forward to being outdoors
again to benefit . See you soon!..

The experience I am in as co-leader of 40 days Digital is this: Triumph is everywhere.Triumph doesn’t look a certain way-it simply IS. Not a competition, not a comparison or even visible necessarily...triumph can be felt, found, lived in all things. It’s accessible to anyone who chooses it as their lense...
What I discovered from sharing Triumph and getting complete where things are not working for me (where is there drama/story and fear are my usual) - thx for the coaching 😉, I inch my way toward Triumph. In kicking up my meditation several notches of late, I got clear space to stand in and be for what matters most to me. ..
The result ? I am triumphant - not over but WITH everything and everyone. ..
What’s your TOTD (Triumph of the Day)? Please share it with me. I am genuinely interested. ..

Being homebound, I realize we’ve been gifted the BEST opportunity to be better humans-plain & simple. Doesn’t matter if it is for a day, a week or the foreseeable future: I’m clear I’ve paid a lot of money to have life altering training to learn how to lead the life I was meant to. Here is an equally amazing opportunity served up by our planet-today…no travel required!
A chance to take stock of how my life is filled with distraction or avoidance or unnecessary action/consumption (different than thinking bout all the things I’m missing out on) and to sit in that. The slowing down required (after the frantic TP run and grocery store scenes like in TWD) and the being with, in closer quarters to boot, those who are closest and who matter most to me…and how much patience and empathy that can take at times.
…
Now’s the chance to LIVE my yoga-like really. Oneness, unity-albeit mandated- this has the potential of being a miracle in the making…even though it doesn’t seem that way.
…
As a former professional stay-at-home parent (my favorite and hardest job), it took me a while to realize that the amount of tasks i HAD to get done were in direct correlation to the amount of yelling at my people I did…
Here are a few things to consider that have been life (guilt and regret) savers on my 2 decade path of being a homemaker:
…
1-Less is More-not a popular thing to say, I know but it rings true to this day. Slow the eff down. When f I try to pack in too much, my energy is depleted, my attention is divided and I am frustrated by the requests that come my way (hence the mood, the yelling and the spiral that follows).
2-Pick 2-4 priorities that must be completed today- and Complete them.
3-Move your body (in whatever way is possible in the now-that means with the space, attire, body and tools you have. It may be that your 1 hour body break is broken into 4X15 minutes- let that be OK).
4-Be with your people. See them. Listen to them. Less fixing, more acceptance.
…
Bottomline: Do Good. And if it hasn’t been going so well, begin again. And Do Good. Trust that you are Good.
…
How are you living your yoga today? If you’re struggling, I’m with you in the trenches. More to come.

Touch is incredibly powerful. And hand holding is among my favorites (a close second to hugging , let’s be real!). ..
With the current state of emergency, I was reminded last night by that i can still touch people in many ways: with my words, a whole-face smile, a glance that holds for a beat longer that says:”I see you”, a pause to really listen to what you are sharing with me, or simply standing with you side by side. You get to touch people by being and sharing of yourself, your presence. ..
The world needs your brand of magic-your touch...
How will you touch someone today?..

“Stop forcing. Stop looking around and comparing yourself. You are right where you need to be”..
Where in your life are you creating struggle for yourself? Comparison to the way I think things should be puts such a strain on my relationship with what’s right here for me. And more importantly whom is in front of me. When I’m “there” I stead of “here”, meditation brings me back. It anchors me. It’s also a great way to begin a class.
Slow is powerful.
Meditate today. Like right now. Set the timer. Sit your butt down and do the thing.
And Slow. It. Down....
