I feel so special to be having this conversation with

This week, I have been reflecting on the people in my life and noticed that I don't show my appreciation for the ones closer to home as much as I'd like to. I've assigned myself some homework, to try and vocally give my appreciation (and why that is) to my nearest and dearest this week!

My (micro)walnutting this week is that I LOVE MY OUTFIT TODAY and I am celebrating that!

@lilikoibikini is where my shirt is from!

Walnut, I had another menty-B (in-front of people) at work this week. I took myself home and I had a nap.

Tips I saw on the internet that work:

I found out what flavour my vampire is! It felt like the moment you flip a coin and while it's in the air, you know what you want your decision to be.

I had my village of women come back to me with feedback that "gender disappointment is a thing" and tell me that all my feelings are valid and normal.

Watch the video version of this if you'd like to see my Vampire Bump! This week my walnutting is in line with wearing the crop top, where I've been in a strange place not wanting to wear tight fitting clothes for fear that The Bump just looks like I had a big lunch... I've worn my witch dress twice as my walnutting and I am so pleased with the walnut result - it was just a normal day!

DISASTER WEEKEND (to no one else but me) because I stressed myself out to the point of physical exhaustion. I wasn't hearing the people close to me because I was too upset with myself to accept that it was no big deal. This episode is a reminder to be present, a reminder to celebrate and enjoy the people in your corner (when they empower you) and to be vocal.

Another early morning discussion with me, Walnut, grab your coff and let's talk about something I've noticed in the way we, as humans share information. This week I'm going to focus on active listening and to try to take pause before I speak. Let me know what you think!

This week, I am confronted with a similar situation that I have experienced in the past and with all my Walnut Armour I am now equipt to handle it in a different, more empowered way. It's also brought up the reflection that I am so lucky and pleased with the life I have curated for myself and the support system that I have around me.
