Who Am I?

The synchronicity of the day has not gone unnoticed.

I was planning on sharing a tutorial on how to do a blowout, but I feel like today’s full moon had different plans in store for what I was meant to share.

Since I woke up this morning, I realized I had been disconnected from my writing practice for almost a week. And anytime I start to feel a little overwhelm creep in, it usually comes with the realization that I’ve become disconnected from my practices. These are not just for my sanity’s sake, but are a way to connect with my Self... and to Spirit.

The last 6 days have been incredibly busy with work, trying to get everyone’s hair done before I take off for a few weeks in mid-August. And of course, in tending to everyone else, I tend to put my own self-care practices to the side.

This morning I woke up, and the very first thing I said to myself was...

“I need to write.”

So I made myself a nice warm cup, came downstairs, and, unfortunately, looked at my phone. Thankfully, the first email I opened was from Canyon Coffee. The subject was “Before the Day Begins” and the main header in the email said “Coffee and a Blank Page” which felt like a gentle reminder that that's what I'm here to do!

Then I opened another email from Robin Rose Bennett, an herbalist I’ve loved for over 20 years. I know I’ve shared her here before. I’ve followed her since my New York days, and every week I look forward to reading her emails. This week’s letter was entirely about writing. About what writing means to her and how writing is a creative self care practice, a way of returning to yourself. I relate to that so deeply. It was one of those moments where Spirit comes through so clearly that you almost laugh~ Like oh, right!! Haha

So instead of filming a blowout tutorial, I sat down with my journal and all of this came to the surface…

It felt especially potent given this week’s specific astrology, the energy of this full moon, Leo season, and slowly creeping toward eclipse season.

It feels like such a powerful window in time, and this energy of being seen keeps coming to the surface.. which now has me diving deep into To Be Magnetic’s summer challenge- Titled BE SEEN… Because when I really sit with all of this, it feels like this IS a time to be seen. A time to show up. To know who you are, and what you’re here to offer.

I’d love to share all of what came through, along with the journal entry I wrote this morning.
