perfection doesn’t exist.
In college, I had this perception that being an entrepreneur was “hard work”
And while it does require a lot of time + energy, the work shouldn’t be “hard”
Life is about flowing, flowing with what is + flowing with what isn’t

After starting my own business, I came to believe that I had to be “perfect”
I had to share everything in the perfect way
I had to be this perfect individual who only does things that “look good”

What I’ve learned, is that this was my ego speaking
My ego - already a people pleaser - came to believe that whatever I was doing, needed to be approved by others. It needed to be “perfect” in order to get “credit” or approval from others.

I’m not perfect.
I don’t care who I make happy.
I don’t care who I trigger.
All I care about, is making a better world for the future.
And I am doing that, in my own ways.
Lately,
I’ve been reflecting on what I want to portray to others
Instead of what they will perceive once I do something.
I want to portray

But the thing is.
Nothing will ever be perfect.
I’ve been doing this work for Y E A R S .
I had to.
I grew up in a mentally abusive home + much of this mental abuse was carried on through my own ego throughout the years.
I’ve sat up endless nights, as a teenager, thinking one of my friends wasn’t going to be okay due to some sort of racial injustice.
I’ve had multiple friends + partners who were personally victimized by the police.
I’ve been personally impacted death in so many ways.
I’ve seen a lot.
But I’ve also done so much inner work as a result of these happenings.
I wouldn’t be the person I am today - 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝙱 𝙰 𝙳 𝙰 𝚂 𝚂 - I am today if I kept continuing the cycle of wallowing in self-pity + telling myself that my life was awful, that the world was unfair + awful,
I had to stop reassuring myself that I was a V I C T I M .

I know there is a lot of chaos + turmoil in the world.
I’ve felt it. I see it. I know it.
But death (literal or physical) is the last step before we are reborn.
I am holding space for that rebirth + I hope you will, too.

My purpose on social media isn’t to come throwing shade, pointing fingers, or telling people how they should be thinking. It isn’t to be spreading the collective fear that the mass media is still shoving down our throats.
But, it isn’t to be ignoring all of these things, either.
What do I really want to get across?
I want to show people what’s possible.
I want people to understand what its like to live an aligned life.
I want others to know that no matter what’s going on in the world; peace, love + unity will prevail.
I want them to know that love is possible; abundance is possible; prosperity IS POSSIBLE.
I can’t do that by spreading the agenda of others.
I can’t do that by showing you all hate.
I can’t do that by constantly posting depressing + unfulfilling content.
I haven’t said as much on this topic as I’ve wanted to, for fear of “messing up.”
But I’m ready to have my voice heard.

Create a safe space for others to enjoy, speak their truth + learn, while connecting with some pretty R A D individuals.
But we can’t do this, together, unless we have the foundation of love first; until we’ve stepped out of the victim mindset.
Step out of
