JWI Intentional Living

ONE MONTH, PEOPLE.

One month until my best friend and I declare our love for one another and tear up the dance floor.
🪩
After over a decade being together, I honestly didn’t think I’d be feeeling so nervous // excited // stressed.

But it’s truly starting to feel like a new chapter of our lives. I’m so grateful to have the privilege to share our love with our friends and family!

Been doing lots of biz stuff behind the scenes as I’m very much enjoying being in my bride era! 👰🏻‍♀️

Reminder that if you’re looking to co-create together, I’m taking October off so rn I’m already booking November // December and into 2024! 👀






Another reminder or maybe more of a PSA: prepare yourselves for the wedding spam to come!!!!

Love always,

Jilly

There's no such thing as being entirely "self-made."
🌿
Our successes are shaped by the support, guidance, and energies we interact with and receive from others and the environment.

While we strive for self-regulation, it's essential to acknowledge that we're not isolated entities. Our emotions, actions, and well-being are intricately linked to the rhythms of nature and the energies that surround us. 🌞🌊 By embracing this connection, we empower ourselves to navigate life's challenges and joys with a deeper understanding of the space we take up and the places we intersect.

Dissolve the illusion of being "self-made" and dive deep into the truth of interdependence and co-creation.

Every step we take is a dance with the environment around us – from the air we breathe, to teachers and healers, to sound of the bugs in your garden.

We are relational beings. Our relationships are what allow us to step fully into our humanity. How we relate (to self, other + earth) offers us the depth of belonging, and it is belonging that enables us to create meaning, to thrive, and to forge a regenerative path forward of trust, safety, and resilience.

Just as a thriving ecosystem relies on collaboration, entrepreneurs flourish through partnerships, shared knowledge, and conscious choices.

Just like nature's intricate systems, businesses are a result of understanding and harmonizing with the world around us, not merely standing alone.

Remember, we are never truly alone in entrepreneurship or on the journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and embodied liberation.
Our existence is woven into the fabric of existence itself — not a hierarchal boundary but a gateway to new life.

Reach out to the support of nature, thank your community, and revel in the abundance all around you.

Embrace the dance of life's aliveness and apply its wisdom to shape your life in + business with me!

Let’s collaborate before I head on leave in October! 💍👰🏻‍♀️💖

🔗 in bye-oh to make your dreams a reality!

Last year I had c0vId for my 30th birthday🙄 so being able to gather with some of my favourite people felt extra special!

YET, In amongst all the love & pleasure of birthdays lives the act of receiving + being seen. 🫠

This fear of being seen is a theme many of us journey through — it even came up in my April COALESCE community care circle— every single person on the call experiences this flavour of fear!

YOU’RE NOT ALONE—Through somatic practices, we can begin to understand the ways in which our
early experiences//societal conditioning have led us to believe that vulnerability is “weakness” or that we must be self-sufficient to survive. Our bodies can then hold onto beliefs and patterns that inhibit our ability to receive. These beliefs become deeply ingrained in our bodies, making it challenging to shift.

But the truth is, as humans, we are wired to thrive in connection. Learning to receive from others & allowing ourselves to be seen is not only a powerful act of self-care, but it also contributes to a larger cultural shift towards interdependence + mutual support.

SO on this birthday, I'm grateful for the reminder that true celebration is not just about the external trappings, but about the willingness to be vulnerable & allow ourselves to be seen in our humanity.

But when we begin to unravel these patterns + cultivate a deeper sense of safety in our bodies, we open up to a whole new world of possibility. Another belief is that by embracing vulnerability and opening courageously, we create space for deeper connection + growth: We begin to see that receiving is not just about getting what we want or need, but about allowing ourselves to be in co-creation with nature.

So as I celebrate another year of life (what I’m calling my 30th + 1), I'm one step closer to the freedom that comes from being received & grateful for the support of those around me. AND I'm inspired to continue breaking down the barriers to vulnerability + celebrating myself fully, knowing that by doing so, I'm contributing to a larger cultural shift!

May this be your reminder of the power of community, vulnerability +growth!

The ultimate goal of nervous system healing is not regulation but resilience!
✨

As a somatic coach who specializes in nervous system support for regenerative businesses, I believe that understanding the neuroscience behind polyvagal theory and how we move through the three states of the nervous system (ventral Vagal, sympathetic + dorsal Vagal) is crucial.

Building resilience means increasing our capacity to handle stress, adapting to changing circumstances, and cultivating curiosity and compassion so you can lead with courage, creativity, and commitment. It means recognizing when to slow down or regulate and when to mobilize or express. By prioritizing nervous system resilience, we can create a culture of reciprocity, reclamation, and belonging.

Regenerative business is not just about being ethical— it’s about going beyond harm reduction to actively restore and regenerate the natural and social systems we depend on (same for our Nervous systems + business).
And transformation happens in community + connection!

If you're an entrepreneur looking to repair your connection to your life, body, relationships and business, I can help. 👋🏼
From mindfulness to movement to breathwork to coaching, integrating polyvagal theory into your daily practices is easier than you think— especially when you’ve got someone by your side ☺️
