Have you ever been labeled a something based on someone else's unsolicited expectations or judgements about your body, personality, or even existence?

Yes, it sucks,

This episode shares my recent realization that grace is a practice not a trait, stemming from a childhood label of 'ungraceful' that was placed on me for having a larger and less coordinated body than was expected of me.

It's time I get honest'er with myself and you - I've been short sheeting myself (literally and energetically) - and you probably have been too!

Being short sheet'd is part of our collective human experience - so what do we do about it?!

Tune in for my genius improviding life hack for when you find yourself literally short sheeted (that means you're out of toilet paper, in case you didn't know the term)

And for a nuanced exploration of how a habitat check in is more supportive than 'life hacks' for when you're energetically short sheet'd

I also share the inside scoop for how my recent literal short sheet'd moment inspired my Summertime Sensory Reset Sabbatical away from creating instagram content while I re-spool some TP on my roll

As part of my sabbatical I am pairing down my summer offerings - check out this post for more deets on my 3 summer services https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf4hP6guNEN/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

This week we're riffing off of sign #3 from last weeks episode as I've realized how much overscheduling of my time I've been doing lately. Join me in exploring what role our mind serves in our relationship with our body and wondering if we would spend less time on autopilot if we're asking our body for consent with how we fill, use, and share our time, energy, and resources.

As we explore expansion as the natural state of life, Dr Alexis Edwards, Mercuri, and I chat energy, remembrances, consent, and share a few full circle moments.

Alexis gifts us with the idea that the Phoenix does not go to ash to reincarnate into its former self, but instead there’s a reincarnation into the newest version of themselves.

I facilitate and impromptu S**t Shifting Session with Alexis as we clear some energetic clutter around money, shame, and guilt while making room for money to booty call us with some scrumptious news!

We even consider what story money has about us *gasp*

We all have that one (or dozen) Adulting task that just sucks. our. soul. to a shitty shitty low. Just the thought of having to do that/those thing (s) can meh the rest of our day.

I call these joy poachers

And I'm curious how life becomes more livable when joy poachers are paired with joy practices, those go to dance in your seat, chefs kiss moments that transport you out of your head and into your body, your inner kid cheering you on.

This episode includes the joy poachers and practices that so many of you shared in my instagram stories - thank you for playing!

Here are 7 different joy poacher and practice pairings, curated to offer you a renewed sense of adulting that includes your inner bebe (read in Moira Rose' voice).

I'd love to hear which pairings you're going to play with!
