For the past 4 years I’ve been putting my heart on a plate for you all to dig into. Being raw and vulnerable sometimes feels like that.
Four years almost every week. That’s a lot of truth telling. A lot of stories. A lot of pain. A lot of healing and deal lord a LOT of breakthroughs.
Honestly I’m not sure how I’ve continuously had so much to say.
Each week would roll around and I’d think what am I going to talk about and by the time my fingers were brushing the keys I found I had something to say.
And then some weeks I felt the words tumbling from my heart before I even sat down to write.
It felt really cathartic and authentic to share my experiences with the intention of them being a support and inspiration for others who may feel similarly, who may relate to some or all of what I share.
And to do this you need to have equal parts confidence, courage, self awareness and a healthy dose of self absorption- it’s true and I say that with love.
But lately I don’t feel like sharing as much. The ideas aren’t flowing like they used to.
Tuesdays roll around and I don’t always have something to say. At least not about myself. I’ve been struggling with this lately.
Between the pandemic, the racial inequity and violence plaguing our country, and all the deep Tantra work I’ve been doing over the past year, I feel my focus changing.
While I still want to share my experiences, I want to move from that spotlight a bit to allow for more education, more conversation, more diversity and the chance to highlight more voices than just my own.
I’ve felt this coming for a while but wanted to wait until my tantra sex coaching certification was complete but things aren’t always linear and sometimes we need to move forward before we are fully ready.
All this to say that there will be changes on the horizon and over the next year.
In order to make these changes I’m going to need just a little space.
While I do plan on continuing to offer my blog, for now I am going to drop it to biweekly and may take a little break in the near future so I can start creating new content on more than just this platform.
I will be changing my branding so that it is even more in alignment with all that I want to offer. This means changes to my website, my Instagram (a new handle is coming too!!), my offerings and a few new projects on the horizon.
If you’ve been paying attention the last 4 years I’ve moved my focus away from just being a yoga teacher and have moved into talking about relationships, polyamory and sex almost exclusively.
I did this because it felt like what I needed to be talking about but it has mostly been through my own lens.
And it still does, only I don’t want to just talk about myself anymore. I want my content to evolve to start highlighting more voices, more diversity, have more education as well as the raw and vulnerable stuff you are used to.
I’m really excited (and a bit nervous) about these changes but it’s time. We can’t become who we are meant to be if we are holding on to who were once were. There needs to be that moment where we trust we are ready to let go and change.
So this is a step in doing that. Letting go. Changing.
It’s certainly not the first step. I’d say that first step was when I became polyamorous 4 years ago and then started talking about my sexual revolution.
Another step was when I decided to go for it and train to be a tantra sex and relationship coach. And now this is another step to more fully embody my purpose.
We have lots of steps we can take on this path of becoming. Some we knew we would take and some we may have never seen coming. But each step is important for our growth, our thriving and our purpose.
