hey, lemon zest.

i just found myself thinking how grateful i am for this space

i really wanna thank you for having this group — it’s such a safe space, for people to be here on a day that is clearly + visibly difficult, this is the power of community + being a stand for something different in the world

thank you. i find it therapeutic every time we’re here, and i really needed this today

these comments were captured from an UPRISING inner sanctum community call back in november, the day after election results were announced in the US

honestly, i wasn’t sure if anyone would show up, knowing that they might find a need for some other kind of self-care that day instead

but everyone who regularly attends that call time was there, and it was so special

*gratitude + appreciation from an inner sanctum call back in november (that’s me about to blow a kiss, not hiding lol)*

in the inner sanctum, we start off our calls with a quick connection share — on wednesdays we share wins, on thursdays we share thrills

on that call we processed emotions around the election together in what was swiftly re-dubbed by one member as therapeutic thursday!

from there we went forward with our community card pull practice — where i intuitively select a card from an oracle or tarot deck for us as a whole, and we take turns following my signature method for using it as a tool for inquiry, reflection + guidance

(the card was CLEANSING, from the healing waters deck by rebecca campbell & katie-louise, pulled in reverse)

here’s some of what came from that convo:

using the lens of what’s flowing or frozen
letting go of a fear brought to the forefront by a recent medical diagnosis
letting go of resistance to releasing old brand offers in order to make room for what truly inspires right now
reckoning, regret, creating space to get raw with it when you’re ready
resistance to the crumbling apart phase of things + how it will have us grasping at status quo even when it’s not what we want
being patient + hopeful around the not knowing right now, and recognizing that if we DID know, that knowing would be more of the same old stuff!

like on that day, sometimes what comes is directly related to biz + sometimes it connects to the personal first. it’s always just what’s needed

i introduced the inner sanctum in january of 2024, and it’s become such a grounding, nourishing force in my life as well as the lives of our members

it's likely like nothing you've experienced before, so i'm inviting you to sample it this week!

if you're done with space that don't honor how hard it can be to:

fight the current of business as usual when there's NOTHING usual or okay about what's happening right now
do biz your way when it contradicts the conventional wisdom everyone else is all too glad to cosign
act on your own inner wisdom in a world that would rather you follow others first
dare to believe that your inner wisdom is your most valuable natural resource, no matter who's ready to poke fun at what they deem woo or unworthy
break down boxes that were never meant to contain you — without going through a breakdown in the process
claim joy in life + biz, even when everyone says it's selfish + foolish, and the world is on fire anyway

then please come sample a call to see what it's like to be in community with others who are committed to sourcing from spirit + self to strategize for alignment in biz AND life
