#beyourownmeme

[part two clip of a video i posted a couple of years ago when we were still running our peer-to-peer support group ....)  . . #personalaccountability #businessethics #walkthetalk #beyourownmeme :: i totally understand this is "rough" time for many . . yet -- i think this is also an opportunity for us to look at business ethics (again/differently) . . many of us have sold a "lifestyle" to many, yet we have not lived it -- as i say --- walking the talk . . we've sold and been sold these images/ideas of being out on the farm/wilderness -- fearless -- carefree -- self sufficient "wild women" . . there have been countless retreats, courses, meditation, classes, etc but what did all of that really mean when some of those who created them and those who attended are waiting to be saved? . . saved/bailed out for what? . . so we can go back to pitching these fantasies? . . i've a gripe about things being great in theory, but very few practice it and even fewer test their theories before packaging and selling it . . we cant change what happened in the past, but we can def take this time to take stock and personal accountability . . #raiseyourvibration #sacredfeminine #spiritualalchemy #triplegoddess #witchesofcolor #vibrationalhealing #goddessvibes #darknightofthesoul #womenempoweringwomen #alternativeliving #mentaldetox #goddessvibes #personaldevelopment #lightworkers #WildWomen #BoldWomen #WomenInConstruction #WomenInTrades #practicalmagic #conjure #rewilding #earthwitch #rootwork #groupthink  #trailblazers https://www.instagram.com/p/B-aGVL4nop4/?igshid=fji1gdmxnvfx

[part one] #BeYourOwnMeme -- Independent Thinkers . . yesterday i posted about practical magic. today i share a clip of a video i posted a couple of years ago when we were still running our peer-to-peer support group and i got the idea to plant a retreat -- not really a RETREAT (cause i dont particularly like that word) -- . . and i was going to call it Build-A-Bond. it would be a gathering for women to come together to get dirty! . . women would come and learn how to figure stuff out, plant, build, run wild, play in the dirt, etc. -- a back to basics way of building connections to self, each other. ancestors and Mother earth . . a SPACE to stand in the middle of the field and REALLY howl at the moon . . i dont share this now, nor did i share it then to knock any others -- HOWEVER just being practical in how we practice spirituality, community/viallage building, learning etc is something that i have, and will always advocate for. if you KNOW me, you know that i often go on about folk talking about tearing shit down, but not a damn person in the room can "build" it back up. . . on these "retreats" --- just like in too many classrooms, etc -- people are not given enough space to just BE and figure shit out on their own. something is always guided, packaged, scheduled, etc. . . shit -- women cant even wear what they want or already have in their closets! . . facilitators --- it is possible to create SPACE for people without putting everything in a box. i KNOW that everyone need not look alike or being doing the same thing at the same time for something to be "powerful" or "successful" or "effective" . . and here we are. today. many locked up inside their homes, staring at screens. some nervous. some terrified....that things will not go back to their comfortable "normal" and they are waiting to be saved or bailed out. they are waiting for someone to tell them what to do and how to do it . . we've A LOT of unlearning to do...perhaps that is what this time is for? . . #raiseyourvibration #sacredfeminine #spiritualalchemy #triplegoddess #witchesofcolor #vibrationalhealing #goddessvibes #darknightofthesoul #womenempoweringwomen #alternativeliving #mentaldetox https://www.instagram.com/p/B-HlMKKnPQL/?igshid=rb19y9r85tmu
