Stories of the In Between

In this episode, I ask you for Taurus season: What foundations are you laying in your life right now?  

Today is an episode dedicated to the lives of Daunte Wright, George Floyd, Jamar Clark, Philando Castile, Breonna Taylor, Sandra Bland, Ahmaud Arbery, and countless others whose lives and breath were taken away unjustly. I feel lots of feels.  What to do but dive into the practice of poetry, of holding the intersecting tensions of it all with the breath of new creation. I share a poem about feelings around checking in with the trial briefly and then share my thoughts about how to continue to dissect the intersecting sicknesses of white supremacy and disconnection from Mother Earth. I talk about watching Downton Abbey and using it as a way to understand more deeply where these twisted energies of supremacy, racial and other kinds of hierarchy have come from and how they are connected to how we show up in our bodies in present times. Tend. Forgive. Have compassion. Accept. Be accountable. Step up again and again to figure out your role in the transformation. You got this love. 

Ready to be brave yet need accountability and a fiercely loving container while you experiment and align?  

Hello friends! Lots of love and blessings to you. Today this episode I share a poem to honor the magical healers of Asian descent that were murdered a few weeks ago. It is time to press our bodies against Mama earth herself now. Long enough to release and transform outdated systems of hate and harm and hurt and step up into the ones that share the conscious understanding that we all deserve to live, to breathe, to drink water, to be.  That you can be magic too. Open yourself to the whispers of Mama Earth and she will help you tend and breathe your pain through.

Happy spring equinox today! Today is the day of the year where we get to celebrate the first day of spring, where the day is equal to the night, where we transition from the end of the zodiacal year, the oceanic dream-like ethereal realms of Pisces season into the fiery initiatory spark of creation that is Aries season. What seeds have been incubating for you? What spark of creation will spring forth from you now? Your courageous individual gifts and creations are welcomed and so needed in this new earth reality. Support yourself. Nourish yourself. Nurture your seeds. Trust your process and intuition. Trust that the incubating seeds will spring forth in divine timing. Have faith and find joy in the seeds and uncertainty beneath the earth.

So many sweet RESOURCES to plug into hosted by some of my incredible colleagues: 

Today I share with you the opening interview for Nurturing the New Paradigm online series because I think everyone and anyone should hear Justin's deep wisdom on how we can shift collective consciousness, actually begin to imagine ending actually racism in our lifetime and how this all starts from the empowering yourself from the inside out.  I got so much out of this conversation and I know you will too. So much love!

In today's episode, I talk about the best way I found to *actually* liberate myself and shift a sticky behavior that I have been attempting to change for years.  I found this practice in Carolyn Elliot's WEALTH program and she found it from Mark Queppet of Universal Man. 

This practice has been a game-changer for me and has helped me liberate energy away from sticky over-dependence and mild addiction and the lower vibration emotions of shame and guilt that often came with it, towards true liberation...

..and let me tell you this liberation that I have been feeling lately has been so satisfying... 

...the satisfaction of truly mastering my own thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.  Interested? Check it out! 

Mentioned in this episode: 

Today I am so happy to welcome Amanda Leaveck, creator of Science and Magic, as she shares with us how she has tied her love of neuroscience and  embodiment through yoga and magic together to create her inspiring business. We share the poem we created together, talk about relationship-centered marketing, queerness, heart coherence and more.  I had so much fun co-creating with Amanda and I hope you enjoy! Stay tuned to the end to hear what my daughter has to say about indigeniety, solstice, and being in relationship with Mama Gaia. Lean into the legacy you know you came here to leave. May this episode fill your heart with the same joy and inspiration that created it. Happy new era beautiful ones!

Today's podcast offering is a reflection from today's walk to George Floyd Square 3.5 blocks from my house, reconnecting with the energy of ground zero of the new world, new paradigm consciousness. The shifting of consciousness. The remembrance of life riding and walking down Chicago Ave before and the feeling of the current existence there. Air thick with possibilities and grief,  joy and  wound tending.

In today's episode, I get vulnerable and share stories about that icky feeling of embarrassment, specifically related to whiteness and the process of dismantling white supremacy in our bodies. In order to dismantle this system from the inside out, we need to be able to be present and tend with these icky feelings that often come from grappling with ancestor and current trauma and learn how to direct the energy into aligned right actions. 

Aligned right actions can be anything from journaling about it to setting up a monthly donation to BIPOC people and organizations that inspire you.  It is the ability for white people to work through icky human feelings of embarrassment, shame, guilt, regret, fear, etc. that can help us address this monster of white supremacy within us. As we can see on the national stage, it is also these same emotions when left untended that can perpetuate misalignment and the outdated legacy of harm for all.  It is time for us to look within.  Now that it is out in the open for all to see, it is time to work through these emotions in our own bodies as we are clearly all connected, educate ourselves about the deeper histories, and increase our ability to sit with and feel it.

Because the veils are thin now, let's utilize this energy for healing. In this bonus episode, I share an ancestor meditation to help us transform tend to the experiences of our ancestors still living in our blood. Surrounding each cell with forgiveness and compassion and encouraging ourselves to be accountable for our actions and those of our ancestors in order to take aligned action towards our legacy.  Let us live out our highest potential and deepest transformation on behalf of them to heal through the past and the future in the present. As said by my awesome friend and colleague June Kaeswith, "We are our ancestors' awakened dreams!"  Samhain blessings to you.

In this episode, I am so excited to welcome my very first guest, ceremonialist Georgia Wall. In this episode, we share a magical poem that we collectively wrote together as a way to discover what wanted to be shared, soul to soul. This poetic riffing has brought me so much joy and and was deeply nourishing to my soul and I hope it is nourishing and inspiring to you as well.  We speak about queerness in marriage, what it means to claim this even when in a straight-passing marriage.  We explore womb wisdom and the paradoxical power that comes from being authentic in the both/and.

In this episode, Adrienne shares a poem about self love and grounding into the 3rd dimension through making sure you are registered to vote and ready to participate and take a stand and move this wheel in the right direction.  We have the power to choose. In this present moment. Are we choosing further destruction or collectively awakening towards universal laws of truth, love,  interconnectedness, and deep justice? She talks about following your intuitive womb wisdom in order to increase your ability to live the life you deserve. Adrienne also shares a poem about bisexuality and using poetry and creative writing as an outlet of expression for sensual desires and fantasies.  It is all connected. Step up into womb sovereignty and let's keep nurturing this new paradigm.

In this episode, Adrienne shares a 5 minute meditation on humble courage for the New Moon in Leo. This practice can be done sitting, laying down, standing, moving, or still.  The focus is courageousness from the heart space. The intention is making space for the soul to be fully loved as is. Radiating from a space of being. Then stepping up. Standing tall. And relaxing into listening and learning. Then bathing in water. Relaxing fully into water. The flow of life. The flow that is sometimes rapid and sometimes serene. The guidance is to be courageous and radiating the power of love.

Bonus episode! This meditation is designed to help you connect with your heart space, call in and upon your angels, guides, ascended masters, and ancestors that have lived a good life (however far back) so that you can release outdated thought matrices, lower vibrating emotions and take aligned action. Come back to the breath and the feeling of these vibrations again and again during your day so that you can exist and act in the world from a place of love, joy, forgiveness, aligned action and deep transformation.  As humans and energetic beings, we respond to the feeling of any thoughts, words, and actions first and foremost that are both told to ourselves and others.  This next week, focus on feeling. This Lion's Gate Portal energy is approximately from August 8th 2020 to August 15th 2020. We can utilize this portal energy to upgrade our frequency. Enjoy the meditation. 

Have a comment, concern, questions? 

I am an emotional person.  I always have been.  And in my journey, I have learned that this a part of my experience.  I am here to help the world be ok with being circular and non-linear, flowing with watery emotions. Recently I learned a little bit more about human design from Elyse Preston of Be More Connected and the results were that I am a Manifesting Generator, here to help the world see that being non-linear and multi-hyphenate is actually what the world needs now.  I get to ride my emotions and allow them through me and lean into the being multi-faceted and multi-dimensional and worthy of my dreams even when riding the emotional tidal waves. I am worthy. You are worthy! 

How can we do this moment differently? How can we bring forth self worth, experimentation, ancestor work, emotional health, womb wisdom and keep leaning into this Creatriarchy? Adrienne shares a poem and song-prayer about in-between-ness, the need for thinking about housing, how to honor indigenous people, people of color, all people and our ancestors by doing ancestor work, transforming generational harm and hurt from the inside out into forgiveness and reconciliation of the original disconnection of colonialism and dying power-over mentality. Allowing sadness to be alchemized into song-prayer about the police state bull-dozing the tents of people experiencing homelessness that had made an encampment in Powderhorn Park near her home in MInneapolis after the George Floyd uprising. Calling in how to imagine things differently: indigenous-led mental health coalitions, a Robin Wall-Kimmerer Navigation Center for those experiencing homelessness, universal basic income for all indigenous mothers and parents of small children, and more and more and more. 

I invite you to creatively express yourself, let your yourself experiment, and allow creative solutions to spill forth. Allow trauma and wounding to be tended, shaken, and loosened from your energy body and release through movement and breath. So much love to you during this intense and beautiful time to be alive. 

In this episode, Adrienne shares a poem reflection about being accountable to justice, transforming outdated systems each day by using your voice to tell vulnerable stories even when it feels shaky or imperfect or re-membering and re-imagining the way you are using language with yourself and your kids. Tips shared include intentionally crossing out and changing some pronouns in children's books from he to they for a character like Bambi or any other in order to instill new paradigm ways of relating to gender with your children.   Or  listening to the wise words of Robin Wall Kimmerer, indigenous citizen of the Potawotomi Nation, decorated professor of environmental and forest biology and author of Braiding Sweetgrass, that indigenous languages had 70% verbs and 30% nouns in order to instill new paradigm ways of relating with our plant relatives. She calls this the "grammar of animacy". Though English may still be on the lips, you can switch this intentionally and address the tree not as an inanimate noun but an animate verb tree being, a subject alive and generous with oxygen, wood for houses, tables and chairs and juicy fruits to be cherished.  You can be accountable through gardening and intentionally building a relationship with Mama Gaia around you. You can be accountable by setting up monthly donations to indigenous/POC organizations in your area.  So many ways to show up and intentionally transform your slice of the paradigm shift. We can do this!

Robin Wall Kimmerer Interview:

Imagine that embracing queer fantasy is part of the foundation of new paradigm consciousness.  In this episode, Adrienne talks about how embracing  consent-based queer fantasy can be a healthy way to channel feelings and desires that may not always be easy or possible to manifest in the physical. She shares poems on bisexuality and embracing fantasy and queer witchiness as a practice of liberation and Equitable Sovereignty.

What would it be to transform any shame, guilt, or fear about embracing your authentic self into embracing the empowering paradox that helps you feel your most vibrant and alive?  What does it mean to be bisexual in a hetero-normative marriage or primary relationship? What if you can use these other realms of consciousness to check in with yourself and affirm your desires in a healthy way?

In the wake of this moment of global history, I have a choice. You have a choice. I have a choice to align with my slice of the paradigm shift, taking aligned action through connecting with my womb space. And in this moment, my womb's intuition is telling me to double down on the continual process of having conversations with other white people about how to be a part of the solutions and where we have been collectively complicit in the destructive systems of racism and white supremacy.   In this episode, I go deeper into why it is so important for all humans, but particularly us as white people, to be tending and working with ancestor energy to transform the way we take action in our everyday lives. This will continue to lay the foundations of the police-less New World, the Creatriarchy we are ushering in now. 

I would love to hear from you. Please leave me a message here with your thoughts:  

In this episode, Adrienne shares a poem tribute to George Floyd, a human murdered by a white police officer only 3.5 blocks away from my home in Minneapolis.  This episode addresses equitable sovereignty, an important concept that can begin to transform the destructive and harmful force of white supremacy.
