And the flower's not better than the tree. The flower's not better than the tree. That's not better than the mushrooms. It's not better than the bugs. It's an ecosystem. And so I think if we can just start with our families, start with your partner, start with your friends, start in your workplace. and really try to get to know people. What makes people different? What makes people interesting?
What's their special blueprint, special talent? It's usually the thing that people are hiding. It's And so when you get in there and you find that special sauce and you celebrate it and you amplify it, I really believe that you can create systems of care that are much more sustainable and in service to all thriving.
And when I say matriarchy, what I really am talking about is not women being in charge, right? But not this system of an ecosystem of non hierarchical community building. It's a circle.
Yeah, so we've been working on this a lot this year. And the thing that we've been doing the most is really working on women's inner masculine. And because I think that we can exercise sort of toxic masculine traits as women where we're just like we're pushing really hard and we're hustling. But that's different than connecting with your inner protector, right?
And so I've been really asking women to, in ceremony, to close their eyes and to find the part in them that is their protector, that will stand up for themselves, for their inner warrior. And then who is the part of them that feels clear and
about the direction that they're going in, and isn't afraid to tell people, I'm busy because I have something that I'm working on, that isn't afraid to put ourselves first and to hold a boundary for who we are. Because I think that we outsource that really often to the men in our lives. And And then we bring in the sacred feminine. What is the part of you that wants to create something?
What's the part of you that's connected to the divine? And how can we bring your inner protector and your inner creator into a partnership with each other right in here? And this has been such an important thing for me because I realized that there were so many things that I just wanted Jonathan to do for me. And that I was outsourcing the creation of a lot of my dreams.
And I had to really sit with myself and say, if these are my dreams, I have to know how to bring them into fruition by myself. I have to be willing to do that. And when I did, you know, of course, he joined me with his own medicine and magic and I I couldn't just be the one to have the vision and then say, go for it, dude. You know what I mean?
And when I did that, I realized that there were so many, I'm the one who knows myself at the end of the day. There are so many more boundaries I had to have with my time inside of work and with my friends and with my family and with my husband. that I am the one who had to protect my time and what I knew was important.
And then follow through with the things that I said I was going to do for myself. And that's how we really build trust with other people is first learning how to build trust with ourselves. And I find that doing that Inner masculine, inner feminine partnership work within us is the place to start.
And I think the thing that I really use, I think we all have a physical tell, right? When we are meant to be in allowing or we are in this invitation to be a sacred warrior, I am always in this dance of like, am I meant to really go for it right now or am I meant to have it just arrive? Yeah. And for me, I'm touching my throat because –
When I'm pushing too hard and I'm not supposed to, I get anxiety in my throat and I start to have fantasies of being liked by other people. I know. It's because like that's my core wound. Like we all have a core wound. Mine is I want to be liked in order to be safe. So whatever our thing is, is like, I want people to see me as smart. I want people to love me.
I want people to think that I'm funny. I want people to think that I care about them. Like my whole thing is like, I want to be liked. And so when I'm like unconsciously fantasizing that the thing that I'm going after means I'm going to be more liked by other people, I know I'm on the wrong path.
And I think the important piece around that is that to me, the divine is super real. The goddess is my best friend. She is my lover. She is my mother. She is really... Number one in my life. And she talks to me because I take a lot of space to listen and to ask her questions. And it's something that we can all develop a relationship with and have a direct experience of.
Like I was just walking down the street an hour ago. And I was just thinking about this next chapter and this next year and how I want to show up differently. And it hasn't been super clear to me. I have some blank spaces and I was feeling sort of frustrated with myself. And all of a sudden I looked up and I realized I was walking on Rose Avenue, which I didn't think much of.
And then I just turned back towards the sidewalk and And there's a woman wearing a sweatshirt that just said Avalon, which is where I got ordained, which is where one of the last standing priestess temples were and the lineage that I'm a part of, they believe was originated in Avalon.
And then like one block later, there was a fence with a triple goddess, you know, with like the crescent moon and the full moon, the other crescent moon, which is the sign of the goddess and then a solar cross, which is the sign of the priestess. And I was like, hi. Yeah. Thank you for just saying, I'm here. You know, magic is really real.
And I know for me, as someone who always looked outside of myself for validation to instead of trusting my inner knowing, for me connecting with the divine and then having the divine speak to me in symbols, in signs, in knowings, in my head, in visions has been so important for me cultivating trust. Yeah.
Yeah. And just with your eyes up, not on your phone, you know, just like, you know, you just have to be waiting for it.
Yeah.
