Hey beaut.

The end of April resulted in many open, wholehearted conversations for me. 

They ached, they loved, they fed, they broke me open.

 

One exchange in particular reminded me of when I was in a doctoral program. I was acting like the first generation, Afro-Latina, scientist that I thought I should be. I did all that I could to be the first in my family to do so many things. That was the problem: I was acting... I was performing... I wasn't living.

 
 

The moment that I realized I was performing a life instead of being alive, I knew that I needed a change.

 

There are places and spaces where performing is an act of self-preservation, but when we feel like we are performing instead of being, we must return home. We must give ourselves the permission to reclaim the parts of ourselves that make us feel alive and whole.

 

I offer you these questions to tap into inner wisdom, your performing versus being: 

What percentage of our energy is going to performing versus being? 

What do we want those proportions to be? 

What small, delightful, pleasures can we give ourselves permission to (re)introduce back into our lives? 

What spaces do we need to intentionally perform with more integrity and purpose?

May we find guidance in these answers.

If you seek to explore these questions deeper, or discover something completely new, peep these early May events I am guiding below.

Plus, this month I have two new spots for Leadership and Empowerment Coaching.

Wherever you are on the path to finding a balance with performing and being, trust that through awareness and discover you will find the place to thriving.

 

May you be empowered all ways & always.
