7 years ago today we braved the unknown together,

7 years ago today we braved the unknown together, again, and gave birth to our youngest son, Yahn (formerly known as Nugget…but still sometimes at home)  I had prepared for this moment for months upon months. I even filmed a YouTube video sharing my plans and my earlier home birth story.

…and then, we had a house fire… on my due date.  Our entire kitchen was charred.  Our home was full of thick, black smoke and we were immediately displaced with one baby ready to come any second, and another two under 5.  There’s a quote about the best laid plans that would probably be a perfect fit here, but we decided to stick to the plan.  We took refuge with family members while our home was restored, I continued to make and ship jewelry orders between homeschool lessons, and we waited…  …and waited.  On March 31, 2015 , at around 6:00pm I was headed out the door to make a quick run to Michael’s for a few last minute supplies when I felt the first contraction.  From there, we labored hot and heavy for 6 hours. Back labor. Labor that could barely stand the feel of water but desperately needed the warmth.  It was the longest 6 hours I have ever lived.   And yet, as I played back the tape, I was still being mama, still in joy…even as I ventured to meet God at the door of life and death. Even as I weighed the uncertainty of whether I’d make it back to meet this soul I was ushering in.  Just after midnight our Yahn arrived.  Calm and alert. Serious and aware.  When the journey was hardest I sang my baby down to earth.  He arrived as his whole self.  Today he is 7.  • • As I prepare to usher in the next level of Feminine Success, just as when I give physical birth, I’m hearing the call to turn inward.

I’ll be taking a 7 day pause on my social platforms.

In the meantime, there is plenty to catch up on on our channel.  Experience the 16 minute version of our home birth on the Feminine Success YouTube channel.

#Entrepreneurship can be a hard and lonely road if

#Entrepreneurship can be a hard and lonely road if you’re not intentional about infusing softness, ease, and community into your process.

Business naturally positions us in our #masculine power, which is fine BUT (and that’s a big but), you must find ways to harmonize and integrate your #feminine power if you want to truly thrive.

My girlfriend @traceywiley and I met at @wishingtownbakerycafe last week on a beautiful sunny day in the middle of the week for less business and more joy.

We talked, twirled, and stopped to smell the roses. Not because we should, but because we COULD.

When you own your feminine power you reclaim your freedom to JUST BE.

Here’s your reminder to take a moment or a day to pause and pour back into yourself and the communities that pour into you.

…and to order *everything* you want on the menu 😂

How will you feed your best self today?

My morning routine has saved me in so many ways.

My morning routine has saved me in so many ways.

I remember the feeling of waking up in a rush. Rushing through my hygiene, scarfing down breakfast with barely a chew, and hopping right into work and mommy mode.

I was a frazzled mess, honestly.

Then I read a book called Commanding Your Morning by @cindytrimm on a plane to Baltimore.

It changed the way I viewed my morning hours and helped me to become more intentional about how I manage them.

I started a simple 3-step routine that I call SET (back then it didn’t have a name).

Silence, Exercise, & Tea.

It’s how I SET the tone - mentally, physically, and emotionally - for each day and it has been truly miraculous for me and my clients.

I knew that I needed to make it as simple but effective as possible because my plate was already stacked and one more complicated thing just wouldn’t work.

And let’s be honest, it wouldn’t get done.

So first, I started with just silence and tea. In my quiet time I journal, meditate, and parse through any lingering thoughts from the day before. I also set a clear intention for the day.

Tea is my daily companion… and it supports healthy digestion.

You can drink all sorts of herbs depending on your needs, but I love to sip yerba mate, miracle grass, or jasmine tea in the AM hours.

I added exercise to get my blood flowing, mind focused, and body engaged. Sometimes I stick to deep stretching (I love @kinkysweat and the #StretchItApp for comprehensive stretching), other times I dance, or do a few walking laps around the neighborhood.

When I need a more intense workout I hit the weights (because my girlfriend @tracey_wiley says I need to lift weights to gain weight 😂 #friends)

Anywho, this is how and why we EASE into the day in the Feminine Success community.

This is how we command the day, and set our inner rhythm.

Do you have a morning routine? How do you start your days? 👇🏾

We can strive for perfection. We can chip away at

We can strive for perfection. We can chip away at parts of ourselves in the name of public approval and respectability… we can wear suits, ties, say “please and thank you”, and be a “credit to our race” — and still be demonized and degraded.

There is freedom in deciding to not give af.

There is freedom in saying enough is enough.

There is freedom in deciding to handle things differently than you would have before… even if “they” don’t get it.

There is freedom in realizing that even at your most “perfect”, the audience is fickle…

There is freedom in accepting and holding space for all of your parts, not just the parts that others approve.

And there is DEFINITELY freedom in standing, defending, and protecting ourselves and our loved ones as a people in a society that has force-fed us ineffective non-violence while they murder us - literally and metaphorically.

There is a time and a place for peace and positivity… and there’s a time to check and correct.

You can meditate AND make sure folks know who and who not to play with.

Christ could’ve pulled the money changers to the side, but instead he flipped the tables and started whipping folks.

Sometimes it’s not about the optics. 🤷🏾‍♀️
