This week was a special one.
Ethaney Lee interviewed me and her questions made me cry. It was such an honor, find her here.
Thursday was summer solstice, the exact moment when Earth's north pole is most tilted towards the sun. In astrologically, it symbolizes, a season for concentrating on home, family, and personal development, thus perfect for establishing goals and supporting relationships. Also the longest day of the year, a ππ sun worshipperβs ππ favorite day!!
On Friday we had a full moon in Capricorn coincide with the strawberry moon coincide with international yoga day πππ§ββοΈ
If youβre reading this, I can imagine you also might feel a little zonked from how energy filled this week was. The world is worlding. The earth is spinning. The energy is flowing. The sun is shining. The mood is mooding.
These shifts are moments to ask how am I doing? What does my body need in this season? What does my mind need in this season? What do my friendships and community need in this season?
A chance to reflect on the seeds of intention we planted in the last solstice (December 2023) Are we fostering a sense of joy, connection, and actual meaning in our lives?

I hope the last 6 months of this year treat you well. I hope theyβre filled with joy.
Happiness is fleeting but joy is eternal.
BIG LOVE,
