The Yay Show

• On Being with Krista Tippett who I accidently called Krista Being at one point which is pretty true. Listen to this episode with Isabel Wilkerson the author of Caste on Spotify. or anywhere you like via the homepage We all know in our bones that things are harder than they have to be.
• Isabel Wilkerson
• Chani Nicholas whose astrology I follow along with my dear friend and rad evolutionary astrologer Rhetta Rowland

• I learned I was an empath working with Ber-Henda Williams
• Another one of my co-authors, Alix Biondo, is an empath recruiter and writes about her journey to imperfection in her chapter in our book

• LeadHERship Global is part of The Great LeadHERship Awakening which if you heard the last episode you know I wrote a chapter in poetry in this book I share with 23 coa-authors including Linda Fisk the founder and CEO and they too have a podcast here on spotify.

• Puppy and a truck song by Jenny Lewis because it's so much #FeelYourYay energy and I love her.
• Quentin Finney, friend, coach, meditation teacher, buddhist, guide gave me the quote on my post-it note: "May I be of benefit to at least 1 person showing myself exactly as I am."
• Rei Hance is a friend, rad coach and no holds barred boundary-building coach. Her book, Oracle of Emergence: An evolutionary i ching literally changes my life every time I am in relationship with it.

I could #shoutout all day and I'll end here so I can get this Yay-pisode out into the world.

Understanding more about the Mission neighborhood and how the name itself is fraught with conquering, colonialism, and white supremacy. Acknowledging the Native Americans and the indigenous land we are settlers of is one way to aware and repair, out loud.

(this is  a wikipedia excerpt) "Prior to the arrival of Spanish missionaries, the area which now includes the Mission District was inhabited by the Ohlone people who populated much of the San Francisco bay area. The Yelamu Indians inhabited the region for over 2,000 years. Spanish missionaries arrived in the area during the late 18th century. They found these people living in two villages on Mission Creek. It was here that a Spanish priest named Father Francisco Palóu founded Mission San Francisco de Asis on June 29, 1776. The Mission was moved from the shore of Laguna Dolores to its current location in 1783.[10] Franciscan friars are reported to have used Ohlone slave labor to complete the Mission in 1791.[11] This period marked the beginning of the end of the Yelamu culture. The Indian population at Mission Dolores dropped from 400 to 50 between 1833 and 1841."

I recommend "Starting out the day with a big cup of Yay" whatever time it is. NamasYay y'all!
