Centering myself in my 2013 Intentions

Hello, Darling!

Are you having an incredible day? I surely hope so ♥

Mmm, I wanted to tell you a bit about the intentions I created back in December, for 2013 and how they have shifted organically through living.

I just love the way life moves and flows. Isn't it amazing? Always a new freshness :))

When I was exploring my plans for 2013, I delved deep inside myself and asked different areas of my life what they were ready for next. It has taken a bit of fleshing out and long talks with the oldest child to reprioritize and know what we really want for 2013.

My initial intentions went something like:

• Self: body stuff - healthful eating + wellness movement
• Family: reconnect with consensual living, being a yes mom, unconditional parenting, + be more involved.
• Schedule: use this planner to complete projects and manifest success
• Home: flexible + simple
• Family Learning: live rich and diverse lives.
• Livelihood: create, create, create + learn & grow, become sustainable
• Partner: read, process, and practice
• Tribe: visit, practice for local tribe someday, maybe create an online space
• Community: visit an array of them, contribute to them in our travels
• Travel: travel in whatever way and for as long as we can, travel out of the country

That was basically it. For each intention, the back of its page was a plan, so I could prepare for success.

I guess when I simplify it so shortly, it seems more current than it seemed to feel over the past few weeks. I have been wanting to rewrite them, and to plan for the future to revisit and update them every 2 or 3 months.

I did want to travel this year, but I had no idea that the rest of my year would basically revolve around our plans to do it.

It was like, once I had written it down, gotten back in touch with it, the need to do it grew like fire inside me, engulfing me.

I had lofty plans to try to get my daughter to agree to travel the second half of 2013, which would mean she would miss summer here and the first semester of her new school year.

I felt her and our life out and presented it slowly, and I told her if she could give me that, I would be comfortable enough with that much, that we could come back and lay down some roots - a house, the whole shebang.

Well, I am very excited and proud to announce that, currently, the plan is: if my oldest loves travelling as much as I think she will, we will travel for a whole year, and travel around the world for a year after that.

Who knows how that will end up.

I really love to follow where our internal guide beckons us in the present, influenced by the allure of the winds of change :)

It is so easy for me to just go with the breeze, flow like a river. But my earthy daughter needs a bit more grounding beneath her, and on her terms :) So, these talks are HUGE!

She is opening up to it. I feel it filling her up. I see her connecting with people with these intentions.

We talk about where we want to go, who we want to visit. We both have an online tribe calling for us. There are so many incredible things to do on the road. And I just love love love that we can live so simply, so comfortably.

In the van, we can go anywhere, do anything.

I am so grateful that everything has unfolded the way it has, to bring us to where we are right now in this moment.

In addition to travel aspirations, I am oh so ready to explode my business.

Things were so foggy for so long. I had an idea of what I wanted to do, I had an idea of what my message was about, but I couldn't focus. I wasn't clear.

And now I am a superconductor of clarity + purpose.

My gift to the world is for me to just be my most vibrant being and watch it transform people and communities.

My path is that like Jesus and Mother Teresa, to heal and soul-nourish just with my presence and my love.

I create spaces for transformation.

And that transformation may be to alight vibrant beings. To help my seeking brothers and sisters excavate for that brilliant glowing, bursting gem inside of them, buried beneath the crud, and let the rest fall away, until they are bright as the sun in every way.

I am here to help us embody our vibrant BEing + create vibrant tribes, circles, gatherings, communities.

I want to shout it from a mountain. Hmm, I need to add that to my list of 100+ things to do in 2013+.

Added :))

Can you feel that? Whew! That is some incredible energy. When I start talking about my message and my purpose, I literally start jumping up and down with the energy it creates.

That is how I know I am on the right path.

So, this is how I want to do it:

I am opening an online space wide and gathering my peeps to create a community with me, and hopefully a deeply connective tribe. It is completely co-created, so how it feels and what it does is up to you.

But I am dedicating all of my being to this space.

I am made for creating spaces that transform lives.

My whole life has lead me to this moment, and I have never been more dedicated, fearless, limitless.

This is it.

And I have 4 months to create a space that transforms my own life. I am ready to not only sustain my family through my endeavors, but to thrive wildly. I am ready to create an incredible spiral, where as the online space grows and enables me to thrive, I have so much more to give back, and so the space grows even more, spiraling into infinity in big looping circles of abundance.

I am bursting with ideas of ways for this online space to transform lives, inside and outside of our sacred gathering.

I can work magic in 4 months.

And then, when we are ready to hit the open road, my vision will expand to include connecting deeply in person with the beautiful incredible souls from this online community.

I want to bring this entire tribe down to a deeper level of connection by visiting some of you in your homes, in your communities, dancing on tables in the park to blasting radiant music, tossing together a festival complete with a fresh batch of hula hoops, gathering in deep sacred red tents of women, gathering around a campfire, crying together, laughing together, playing together, being together.

Life is incredible and full of so many amazing ways we can nourish our souls and transform our lives. I want to explore them with you. I want to tailor them to your family and community. I want to be with you, be present with you, enjoy the heck out of you ♥

Not all of us need transformation. I am really really good at just being, too.

Some of you may even want to saddle up and caravan with us. Oh, my delicious gypsy tribe that I have dreamed of for so long.

Whatever you want to do, I want to do it, too!

Let's have an adventure :)

That's all I know right now.

I want to open wide this online+inheart space for grassroots folks to build a deeply soulful, connective, and transformative community.

In 4 months I want to explore the horizons outside my big front window, to adventures and scenic views and soul sisters and brothers.

Every intention in my life revolves around these 2 things.

So, this is more what our priorities + intentions look like at this chapter of 2013:

• Self: nourish me, deeply care for my needs so I can give my all
• Business: learn, grow wildly, adjust as needed, create time to be totally devoted to work
• Income: generate abundantly + unapologetically + shamelessly
• Travel: plan, explore, make lists - all for fun, it will unfold organically and seamlessly
• Schedule: get into the groove of a daily family rhythm, use my delicious planner, make lists with wild abandon, change everything as needed, complete projects + manifest efficiency
• Home: clean + simple + organized, practice working it, so prepared when hit the road
• Family + Family Learning: reconnect with simple sacred mama path and family, do fun stuff, plan fun stuff for the future
• Tribe & Community: practice, enjoy, create space for transformation
• Partner: practice loving souls deeply and presently, so I can do the same for my future lover

The promises of tomorrow are fresh in my nose like spring air. 

Please, love, tell me what is new for you...
