September mood 🖤✨ (happy birthday )

Everything comes to you at the right time.

I have been going to the ocean often lately, the same way I have always done every time I feel lost, confused, or swallowed whole by my emotions. Not only is it magnificent and beautiful, it also reminds me that everything comes in waves. My biggest lesson in this season is that in order to carry others home to themselves, I must take care of my own mind and body, relentlessly. I know what I am here to do, and my work now is to embrace it and proudly display it regardless of external advice and judgment tempting me to switch gears and change course 🦋 I am gifted at guiding others to flourish in pleasure and love, and it’s a gift I vow to nourish and share every day for the rest of my life.

“Your body isn’t the most interesting thing about you.” I see this saying repeated often in the self-love/body acceptance/recovery community.

BUT WHAT IF IT IS?? Is that so wrong?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’mma tell u what’s wrong: thinking your body has to be magazine perfect to be interesting.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Nah girl, your body can be a f*cking piece of art for all I care if that’s whatcha want.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m sure there’s tons of other cool stuff about you, and that’s definitely important.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But also, it’s fine if YOU want your body to be a part of that. It’s cool if you enjoy compliments. It’s more than ok if you get off on taking pictures of your a$$. I’d even go as far as saying that doing so when you struggle with food-body stuff is being a bad b*tch!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just make sure these things don’t depend on adhering to patriarchal rules that keep you stuck in hurting yourself.

Ok so. If you’re not there yet but you aspire to be a bad b*tch too, there’s a thing or two I can do for you 💕 dm “BADDIE” for info on my 1:1 coaching offerings!
