life + getting real with abundance

Oh, my darling!

I know it has been so long ♥

Life gets so full and so busy, and my Facebook is all I can pour myself into sometimes.

We are not in a house yet.

We are still in a bit of flux.

Our main priority to find a house got sideswiped by baby goats.

 
 
 

 
11 babies ♥ 7 mamas ♥ 1 big loving man-boy ♥

My little family is still hOMestead-dreaming ♥

We have some idea of how we would love the rest of the year to unfold - something like the rest of the summer at my mom's farm with the goats, BurntWoodsStock, Rethinking Everything, and then the big move (again) to Oregon (finally). Where we will have our hOMestead and 3 of these babies to start our very own goat herd ♥

I have a soul-delicious goals list for this summer.

What I have leapt into has been creating financial abundance for my family.

I have been thinking business and planning business and designing products for business for years.

I decided to stop planning and just show up where I am and give all that I have and be very internally clear about being ready to receive.

I remembered the feel of the parks in Oregon, when we would just spread our quilt out on the grass and offered hair rope blessings for donation. Never any worries. Just giving, loving, receiving, trusting, being, enjoying.

So, I am using that model now.

Here I am. Just showing up to love you and give you whatever I feel called toward to give you, and trusting that what you feel called toward giving back will fulfill my family's need to thrive.

I have just begun coaching for donation, and it feels incredible.

We all have stuff that is just easier to work through with someone, and I am so honored to step into a space with you and do it.

I have been hearing SUCH great feedback, too! My loves have said they feel so much lighter and they appreciate the resources and wisdom I offer. We gush with love over each other a lot, too ;)

It is such an incredible thing to finally feel like I am putting into practice all this soul-deliciousness that I have been collecting and growing for so many years.

I started going to school to be a family counselor 12 years ago. I got my BA in psychology and was ready to get into a masters program, but I looked down at my newborn son and just couldn't leave him. So, I became a homemaker, and I fell in love with that job! I found unschooling about a year after that, and our life has just been an incredible adventure and personalization ever since.

But here I am. Able to find a way to offer the healing and help I knew I wanted to AND be a single stay-at-home mama to my babies. And you know what? I am POSITIVE that the last 7 years of living have provided a WAY richer curriculum than any masters program could have.

I'm so excited to get to draw from the deep well of our incredible life to give you my light and wisdom.

I have been talking a LOT about bliss on Facebook recently, and I created a tab here on my blog, to open up a space to grow some bliss-mongering ideas and also to share a pilot program I want to do.

I have been swelling my heart with beautiful graphics like these:



 
 
I have been thinking a lot about what makes life bliss, so I can help people find their own bliss. And I have been thinking a lot about over-delivering.
 
I was so afraid to give my all for free, out of fear that people wouldn't want to give me money for my work, so I could support my family.
 
What a silly fear! I have the most beautiful and supportive beloved tribe!!! Together, we can do this. Together, we can do anything. And we have already been talking about defying limits. It's been incredible.
 
And an AMAZING thing has happened since I started giving my best stuff away for free... Are you ready for this? I've gotten even better! Whew!! Who knew!!!! It has taken me farther and stretched me in new exciting ways. And I have more to give. And people have been giving me money, and my kids and I are actually even better off financially now than we were when I was worried about giving it away for free. Teehee!
 
I just threw "donation" out into the universe, and here we are. Abundance. This is it. I freaking feel it!! It's ecstatic! ♥
 
Abundance and I just got real. We sat down and had a chat. I said, "Hey, Universe. I've got these kids that just deserve better. It's unnatural to struggle for money - and I'm doin the work to release the limits I have adopted along my way -, but in the meantime, let's make money happen, okay? My family deserves it. Including me."
 
And voila! A huge space opened up where I could see a way. And here we are :))
 
So, that is pretty much where we are right now.
 
Just livin. Just learnin. Just showing up. Just giving my all to my people. Just dreamin super big and looking forward to not being afraid to manifest that bigness.
 
Will you join me?
 
I would love to connect with you, in your journey. I would love to hear if you resonate with any part of my journey. I would love to talk more - e-mail or on Facebook. I would love to sit with your wonderings and see what insight I feel drawn toward sharing with you.
 
I am still learning how to describe my style. I have a lot of cool analogies and some words that resonate. I hope you can feel my style and know if you feel drawn toward me, and if you do, e-mail me, message me on facebook - let's connect ♥ And we can connect hearts and play in some sacred heart space ♥
 
Let's do it. Let's just do it.
