Ok 2023, I’ll kiss you if you promise not to suck.

Finished my #100book of the year. And what a brilliant one it was.

So many stories we’ve forgotten live in our bodies.
So many stories need to be remembered.

So much of me isn’t mine. So much of me are stories I’ve never heard.
I, too, am from a shtetl, from violence, from running, always running, becoming others, becoming what we think is safe…
I, too, am from stories I will never hear but that live in my veins.
I, too, heal from stories I tell, even if they’re partly made up, partly magic, party memories I didn’t remember having.

@_gennarose_ thank you for bringing such beauty and fun into inter generational trauma.

It’s my birthday. I’m 41.
To say I am where I thought I should be, well… life has been very unexpected in the last few years.
I am not where I thought I’d be, doing the things I thought I’d be doing… changing the paradigm of my reality is a work in progress.

This has been the hardest year of my life, and there’s been competition. It has been painful and shattering and draining and just hard in all the ways.
#wevandohardthings but do I really want to?
I do the hard things I choose that make me stronger.
My body has never been as strong as it is right now. Pregnancies behind, my core and my alignment are in the best space they’ve ever been. (Thank you @movement_mom and @onepeloton !)
My mind, it’s a work in progress. Finding a community with @go__dep has been paramount to letting go of the harshness of the last year, and showing up for myself, just for myself, in those cold blistering mornings in which I show myself, over and over that yes, I can do hard things… I’d rather just choose them as opposed to having them shoved into my everyday…

I am strong. I breathe. And I crave and desire ease and flow. That’s it. If there is ease everything else will flow.

I’ll continue showing up for myself. In the cold. In my books. In my workouts. To slowly fill myself up again with myself. To be. To breathe.

I’m neurotypical, married to a neurodivergent unicorn and have two neurodivergent dragons and a third who is too young to know what kind of brain she had “we don’t know!” She says.
My family is a #neurodiversefamily

Did you understand anything I just said?
Do you know what it means to raise dragons like these?
Do you want to learn?

What’s the difference between #neurodiverse and #neurodivergent?
Where did the term neurodiverse come from? What does it mean?
What is #neurotypical?

What’s more important, how smart you are or how you are smart?
What does it mean to be neurodivergent?

How do you process and experience the world?

If only going into this freezing water, fighting the resistance as my body ached, as my chest heaved, my arms stung…
Watching the fiery clouds reflecting the awakening sun…
Hating the cold and staying in here…
Breathing…

If only this had been the hardest part of my day

First dip in the winter. The air was kind. The water was not. Breathing helped me through.

Can I do anything? Can I push my boundaries beyond

Can I do anything?
Can I push my boundaries beyond what I imagined possible?
I hate the cold.
And you may think that is the boundary I’ve been pushing and breaking for the past six months with @go__dep (as you’ve seen videos and photos on my stories).
But it hasn’t. That isn’t it.
My resistance begins the moment my alarm goes off at 5:15 in the morning. Am I really waking up? To do something that is just for me? Something that has nothing to do with my family, my clients, my partner, my children, my dogs…
I’m waking up, putting on a bathing suit and layers to go do Breathwork, watch the sunrise and share incredible energy with a strong and compassionate community.

I thought my boundary was the cold. I was wrong.
My boundary was doing something this committed for myself.
I always tell clients to be more selfish, because you can’t give or do or create or seduce or breathe if you’re empty. But of course I am hard of hearing to my own advice and philosophy, especially after the past few years.
We sometimes forget our own wisdom.

In the service of me.

So here I am, in the most beautiful ceremony in October, by the lake, surrounded by women who believe in me and hold space for me, guided by the magical creature that is @go__dep .
Ice bath and lake bath and moon bath and breathing.
Push yourself beyond what you believe you are capable of taking for yourself.
Date yourself. Do things that are just for yourself. Breathe.

#aboutthisweekend

On Saturday, with hairy legs because waxing takes time (and who has time and why would I wax anyway?), I put on an outfit I hadn’t even dared to touch for years.
It is pre marriage, pre babies, pre pandemic, pre everything.
It fit. It fit this new body of mine I’ve been working on to make stronger and healthier. It fit in a different way. The zipper closed, it was tight in certain areas it hadn’t been before, it was snug in others. It fit differently but it fit.
And in truth, I am not a shorts around town kinda gal, but I felt powerful, and I strode out my door.
.
It takes a village to raise a baby they say.
It takes a village to make mamá’s body stronger and healthy and aligned again.
I’ve been working for years with @movement_mom and I am the strongest I’ve ever been and my posture is the most aligned in my life. I understand my body and my movements in a way I’ve never done before.
.
I’ve been working for years with @drlisawatsonnd to balance my hormones in a smart and logical way, understanding what converts into what and why emotions and changes are not me but my hormones and how I can balance them out.

I’ve been breathing and dipping with @go__dep for half a year and the healing this has brought my soul and mind is ineffable . The community it’s gifted me with is invaluable
.
And lastly, @onepeloton has saved my mental health these past few years. I can’t really see myself going back to a gym. Training at home is a pleasure.

And so I walked out the door on Saturday night (with the perfect birthday party to go to @adrienne_mcruvie ) with an outfit I felt amazing in (and one I wouldn’t really want to sit in!) knowing I have transformed and will continue transforming…
because change is life.
But change doesn’t mean you gotta do it alone.

Do you have a village that can help you change? That can guide you on your journey?
Would you like me to be part of your village? Dm me.

Sometimes all you can do is laugh.
I don’t remember laughing this hard in a long time.

I hate the cold. I truly hate the cold. I’m the one who turns the seat heaters on in the car in the summer.
And yet…
For the past few months I’ve been waking up really early to be guided by the magnificent @go__dep to explore discomfort, to journey through it, to learn from it, and to come out at the other side.
Cold doesn’t scare me anymore (or at least, less) and it often surprises me.
(The sand, that’s a battle I will not give up on!)

Here I am, at a full moon ceremony, my first, sharing an ice cold bathtub with a budding friend, the one who sings when she goes into the freezing water, @ryanne_mcgee

Laugh and singing in freezing water. That’s all I can say.
