Embracing my feminine energy 💙 I’m learning that to be calm, have faith, patience, go with the flow, be nurturing, curious, compassionate, + a good listener are all the feminine ideals that I need to embrace right now bc I have neglected them vs my masculine energy to take action. But during my summer vacation I spent a lot of time with myself, + my loved ones. I experienced a different side of myself that enjoyed not being on my phone, social media, multi tasking af, + having a million conversations online. This is my usual life that I do find joy in sometimes but not all the time bc I’m human + I’m not afraid to admit I need space bc I’m growing. I’ve discovered my true self recently + I’ve learned it really depends on your environment 🦋 When I’m with the youth, my cousins who are blossoming into adolescence I find myself reading self discovery psychological books all day, exploring photography, watching inspiring movies, having intellectual conversations, truly listening, being in the present, sharing our life experiences together, skateboarding, + just wanting to go outside whether it’s the park or the lake. There’s something about being surrounded by youth that makes me feel like I can be a child again. It’s probably where I feel most like myself :’) 💐 To be in this industry I had to be a stronger version of myself, always depicting that I’m capable, independent, + my own boss so I can get hired + build a solid reputation. It helped me develop parts of my creative identity, foundational skills such as mentoring, how to set boundaries, + now I have the power to inform others through my wisdom... However at the same time I felt restricted to who I can be. If I’m not growing as a person it’s time for me to move on. So I did! 🤘 There’s a lot of intergenerational healing that I now understand I have to purge. I’m going to break my intergenerational trauma by allowing myself the freedom to get to know myself in the environment I want to be in by being completely true to myself, my values, + my worldview starting with my grad school interview!! I want to not only make a difference in my industry but my world too I’m ready to live in my truth🌎🥹
