Hi!!! Been practicing processing my emotions and wanted to discuss that process: 

• self concept and self esteem is directly related to your in/ability to process emotions
• emotions aren’t identities
• the power of envy
• how language obscures understanding - autistic vs allistic speech: direct and literal vs indirect and metaphorical
• body domination is colonial
• reconnecting with your body
• embodiment precedes emotional processing 
• body pendulums as divination

There are MANY ways to worldbuild outside of giving money. There's a lot of spiritual action you can take, to be discussed. For physical action Google "how to help Palestine" or check out this resource: https://devonprice.medium.com/heres-a-long-list-of-actions-you-can-take-for-palestine-e63fa0d3bd70

Words fail in a genocide. Palestinians, my heart is with you and I am so so sorry. Israeli and Jewish allies, I think of you too. Standing up for what's right is probably costing you your community and relationships... I want to acknowledge that cost. Thank you

So it turns out lies - even the little white ones - have immense consequences on our abilities to build a self esteem! I discuss how lying:

• challenges our sense of personal authority
• decentres ourselves
• is a form of manipulation that robs others of choice
• causes moral injury
• builds an immoral and cowardly world
• has short term social benefits but long term self-esteem consequences

This episode is a buffet of topics! I want to explore shame, jealousy and envy. I think all 3 have their place and can be incredible for self discovery. We can lean into them to much though, and also weaponize them (with good intentions but to bad ends). I discuss: 

• envy and jealousy have bad PR
• haters online and what externalized jealousy says about us
• co-creating on the internet
• white guilt, fatphobia and shame

Today I discuss transitioning from overthinking to embodying and integrating what we already know:

• Trusting life’s journey and using feelings as a guiding system
• Letting go of a tightly controlled life, experience presence, and embrace the spontaneity and serendipity of life. 
• Balancing action with faith, and shifting the approach from a driven, goal-oriented mindset to one of trust, alignment, and presence. 
• The power of astrological transits, the Role of Spiritual and Celestial Support
• The gift of living in the moment

The discourse around people who’ve never had serious relationships is…interesting🤔. Let’s unpack:

• feeling embarrassed about being single/ never having had a serious relationship
• heteronormative fairytales
• personal growth outside of romantic relationships
• the abundance of love everywhere
• embracing your romantic timeline
• trusting divine timing

I’m so grateful for life! Today as I celebrate the gift of life as a human bean, I reflect on:

• feeling comfortable being observed in an emotional, sensitive, sincere, vulnerable state
• submitting to my emotional range
• life is an algorithm

The transits in my 5th house (play, pleasure, vitality) have been BLESSING ME. I’ve been going out and making friends and spending time with strangers, and I’m loving it. I’m learning a lot about how to be present and world-build/community-build both physically and energetically/ I discuss:

• challenging internal biases
• making friends to survive the cold political front
• the joy of hanging out with strangers you’ll never see again
• friends vs. fellowship
• do you need friends to share the same interests? hobby alignment vs. energetic alignment
• pursuing education as a means of self-humbling and staying curious
