You are an AMAZING and FANTABULOUS human BE-ing, not a human doing.
I am here to celebrate with you that you are a unique being with a unique path.
You also have a unique flow.
Your unique flow is your HUMAN DESIGN.
Human Design is a self-IN-powerment that shows you where and how to access your body’s wisdom and awareness.
Human Design marries ancient wisdom systems including the African (Kemetian/Egyptian) science of astrology, the Chinese I Ching, the Hindu chakra system, and the Jewish Kabbalah along with quantum physics.

I woke up several days in a row feeling out of sorts in early October. Those feelings were calling me to come home to myself. To take a deep dive into expanding how I understand myself. Ever felt this way?
My journal became sacred space for me to share my feelings. Words poured onto the pages of my journal that reminded me of poetry I had written in the past. I went online to my blog and read some of it. I also started reading poetry in my mindful creativity memoir, That Which Awakens Me(available on Amazon — go here to learn more about the book).
In reading my poems, I was able to get more grounded and made a decision to reach out to my therapist, coach, accountability and prayer partner, and sacred community for support.
As the weeks passed by, I started receiving messages from my ancestors in my journaling and artwork. They were delivering HUGE downloads of ancestral medicine that were inviting me to expand my understanding of self. So I sought support from an ancestral healing coach who helped me gain clarity and connect with my loving, wise, and well ancestors.
My ancestral medicine work helped me befriend my inner critic Broomie (a/k/a Broomhilda) and begin to face my fear of not being relevant as a 57 year old woman. It also brought me back to my human design, a powerful self-IN-powerment tool I have used to deepen my understanding, acceptance, and love of self.
Here’s the blessing. I was able to incorporate my ancestral medicine reflections and human design work into several Thriving Mindfully Podcast episodes and the Thriving Mindfully Academy’s Fall Virtual Retreat and monthly mindful self-care classes in late October and November.
Check out the Thriving Mindfully Podcast episodes here.

Here’s what I know for sure about understanding yourself.
Understanding yourself helps you love, accept, and nurture the REAL YOU.
Understanding yourself is a lifelong self-discovery process that reveals your strengths, weaknesses, fears, and everything in between.
Understanding yourself can get messy and even scary when you come face-to-face with your fears and any fears you have inherited from your ancestors. That’s why it’s important to be S.O.F.T. As Fuck with yourself.
S.O.F.T. As Fuck means you SLOW down and OFFER yourself FREEDOM TODAY and every day. That FREEDOM is loving kindness, compassion, nonjudgmement, patience, and forgiveness.
That FREEDOM is also ancestral medicine.
You gain access to your ancestral medicine when you call on your loving, wise, and well ancestors for support. Ancestral medicine is wisdom you can use as guidance in your life.
When you marry your understanding of self with ancestral medicine and human design, an IN-powerment tool, you become more grounded and are able to make better choices, informed decisions, and flow with greater ease.
While I was leading the S.O.F.T. As Fuck Fall Circle on September 28th, I asked folks when’s the last time they slowed down, reflected on their growth, and celebrated their efforts. Most hadn’t taken the time to reflect and celebrate. That’s why I recorded a special video about the power of being S.O.F.T. with yourself and how it helps you pay attention to and celebrate your small, medium, and big wins. Clink on the video below to hear what I had to say.
Drop me a line and let me know how you are celebrating your small, medium, and big wins.
FYI: I am leading the final S.O.F.T. As Fuck Fall Circle on Saturday, October 1st at 2-3 PM ET. You are invited to join me.

What happens inside of yourself — your body and mind when you think about being VULNERABLE?
Do you shy away from being VULNERABLE with yourself because society, family, friends, colleagues, mentors, etc. tell you it is a sign of WEAKNESS?
This morning I wrote about my vulnerability journey and what’s gotten in my way of being S.O.F.T. and VULNERABLE with myself. Watch the video below to hear what I wrote and felt about being vulnerable.
FYI: S.O.F.T. is a mindfulness tool I created and use in my own self-care practice and work with clients, companies, organizations, and communities. S.O.F.T. means SLOW down and OFFER yourself FREEDOM TODAY.
