Wise words by a wise woman: "I'm not settling for half of anything!"

So, this mother's best advice to my three year old? Be yourself, and tell the truth! Notice where you deny, defend, dismiss, avoid. Notice where you think you know best. Notice where you hook yourself to an illusion to try and sustain the status quo of your life. Notice when that's no longer serving you.

Women, mothers to the creation of Life, give a shit. Because of that, it falls on us to awaken, embody and express from the matriarchal consciousness that demands we let go of what isn't working and engage DIFFERENTLY.

To know one's self, to achieve self-mastery in it's perpetual evolution and discovery, is to stay Present to the totality of what IS. Where are my own internal blinders that keep me from seeing a bigger picture? A larger context? Where do I allow my mind to take me down the rabbit hole of convenience and habit? Where do I not even notice?!

We hang on to what "is" when the pain of hanging on feels greater than the perceived pain of letting go. Here's what letting go requires...

Can we ever truly know if the story around the “majority consent” is even close to true when we cannot know how many people are consenting in the true sense of the word?If you knew how abuse works, in your bones, not in theory, you’d see the signs by now.
