3 Career Conversations to Have With Yo'self Today...

Hello hello Fam!
Happy new week!
Every year, I strive to create the most magical year yet. Recently, as I reflected on my last 12 months, I realized I made some bad ass moves that I didn’t even realize had that energy back then. Which is why I couldn’t stop yapping about creating Sacred Career Spaces in my book, ‘So You Feel Stuck in Your Career?’. These spaces are priceless for reflection, re- strategizing and taking account of your significant milestones.
Every year, I put a little more attention to March. This year, we are experimenting with back to back music festivals, a one-year Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training kick off and a poetry book (on radical trust) ready by my birthday in exactly 7 days. Comet speed.
Which is why today, I am too tired to write. No. I lie. I spent the last three days dancing. I know. I know. But if this world as we know it is coming to an end, am raging with light.
As I watch in despair the audacity of leaders in letting racism creep in and run the show in the middle of war, I am reminded that until humans learn, nothing will change. And yo, friends, humans never learn. Our consciousness is our destruction. And our salvation. Perfect chaos. For perfect creation.
In between dancing, I forced my tired feet to take a break. Painfully defying the DJs' intentions.
That’s how I ended up engaging in several different conversations with interesting humans. And I love festival people. They can be so direct & real. Take sometime today to engage with these with yourself and see where they lead you in your journey.
Me: So what made you move to a new town?
Human: Because I can.
Me: (Weuh to myself)
Key take away. Stop over analyzing or coming up with explanations for the things you want. You want what you want. Go for it. The world will adjust.
Application: What goal or desire do you secretly wish for but your search for justifications is keeping you away from achieving it?

Me: (to a DJ I just met) Are you playing at the festival?
Human: Nah, am just here to shake my bum bum for three days
Key take away: Do things that you love often. Fearlessly.
Application: What is one pleasurable experience you can immerse yourself into this week to deeply connect with yourself?
Human: What’s your name?
Me: (Context: It’s 3 am, I sort of forgot all my fake festival names…sorry not sorry honesty) Silence…
Human: Angel, is it angel?
Me: Yes let’s call me that. Angel I like it.
Human: I love your aura. It’s very calming & grounding
Human goes on to sit around for another 3 minutes and then walks away into the darkness.
Key take away: People can see, feel, know your vibes. You are sending electro magnetics of magic or the opposite every second. How you feel inside manifests on the outside.
Application: Check in: How are you feeling today? How is that influencing how you show up/express yourself in your social & professional circles? Buffer: How does how you feel influence how you show up for interviews?
Happy conversing!
Love & Light
