How I'm Healing From This

For the week of February 28th, 2021 - March 7th, 2021 we have many BIG opportunities for tapping into new ways of thinking about an old problem and finding the inspiration to - finally!- get into gear for 2021. 

March 3rd, 2021: Mars Moves into Gemini

March 3rd, 2021: Venus Sextile Uranus

March 4th, 2021: Mercury Conjunct Jupiter

The name of the game is elevation! Time to invite new energy into your life in order to get moving on those goals && plans for the future. XOXO

For February 22nd - 28th we have Mercury coming out of retrograde, Venus going into Pisces, and a Full Moon in Virgo- rapid changes on the heels of a difficult few weeks spent reflecting on past relationships, patterns, and behaviors.

The Virgo Full Moon can bring to light how to elevate your practice and refine your offering, or highlight just how out of sync you are with what truly brings you joy.

The big question this week is-- are you worth investing in your time and energy into? Do you believe your own vision?

Episode 2 Features Helen Lee speaking to the difficulty of staying grounded and clear during the end of the 2020 chaos-- when things seem certainly about to change, but also, not soon enough. Knowing a pattern is ending but feeling anxious about the next one that is beginning, we cover mental health, emotional grounding, strategies for resilience, as well as escape, and the history of White Supremacy and how we try to root it out within ourselves. 

Content Warning: Suicide, Mental Health, and White Supremacy are discussed in this episode 

Episode 1 Features Kimberlynn Acevedo AKA La Femme Papi speaking to the difficult task of setting boundaries with family when trying to heal from abusive and difficult situations at home that required her to stay silent and small in order to feel accepted at home. Communicating those boundaries to family, and navigating the feelings of guilt and shame associated with taking space from home can be very difficult, especially for children of immigrants. 

In this episode we talk about what it's like to grow up in less than ideal homes, how to honor and respect parents and cultural lineage by taking space to declare your space your own, and what transformation and healing looks like for queer Latinx people in familia.
