As things have changed over the years my cycles have changed and I often need to learn myself all over again. This has been humbling, to say the least.  I’ve had babies, struggled through infertility, lost babies, seen miracles, encountered life shattering circumstances, and come out on the other side with scars that make me more beautiful.  I’ve learned a thing or two about surrender.  I’m still learning.  Every day.  But I have a lot to share.  I’ve learned to sit with myself, to have such compassion for myself, and to see myself as my best friend.  I want that for you too.  

 

I honestly never imagined myself as an entrepreneur.  Ten years ago I was a stay-at-home homeschooling mom swamped with little ones and volunteering a bit on the side.  I was always service minded and loved encouraging other women and mothers.  I loved being the mentor that I always wished I had.  But an entrepreneur?  “No,” I’d sheepishly say, “I could never do that”.  

 

Fast forward 10 years and here I am with a wonderful business doing what I love while I’m stepping past fears and changing my mindset. I am learning to listen to my own teaching every day to walk slowly and embrace where I am in my cycle, in my life.  To rest when I need to rest, take advantage of my high energy times, set boundaries, and take radical responsibility with the knowledge I have of myself.  

 

My theme for this year is Nourish, which I often interpret as “no rush”.  That’s hard for me, hence the need for the theme, lol.  Experience and Wisdom have taught me how important it is to nourish myself every day and to do this first.  So I make sure to fuel my beautiful body, make play a top priority and sit in surrendered silence with God. This looks different in the various parts of my cycle.  That is what cyclical living is all about and that is what I hope to share with you!
