For all queens out there! I guess I needed to see this image this morning. At least now my motivation is back. #youareaqueen #queen #allwomenrock #inspiration #motivation #StyleAndCurve #loveyourself #styleandcurvemag
Yesterday I emotionally crashed. With my massive holiday and with the start of my cycle coming early, it made no surprise with how I was feeling. I’m bloated. A little heavier from my holiday and feeling rather tired as I adjust back to my insanely busy life. Sprinkle in some PMS and it’s not the best recipe for feeling fab about yourself. . . So ATM I’m feeling hella self conscious about my bod but really, there are worse things than having a tummy. Some days I find the world of social media can get in my head and I don’t feel good enough to be the pinup I am, all because of where I carry weight. It’s something I have to actively reject in my own head and remind myself that tummies aren’t evil and having one isn’t anything to be ashamed of. I’m doing amazingly well considering how much I have on my plate and while it’s important to throw your pity party sometimes (bottling is never productive) it’s also important to acknowledge when the party is finished and to put things down to move forward. Take time to remind yourself how fab you are! 💕✨

YOU ARE A QUEEN
Put on your damn crown.
It is so easy to continue taking care of others by cutting off your own limbs, skirting your own issues, giving excuse after excuse about how things are busy and you don’t have time to take care of yourself, giving until you become empty, until you’re all ancient rage, anger, depression, resentment, heavy with the weight of the world, or settling. Not doing the thing or saying the thing that is in your belly and on your heart because you don’t want to rock the boat.
THIS IS NOT WHAT YOU’RE HERE TO DO OR BE. I will be yelling with all the love of the Wild Woman.
YOU ARE HERE TO HEAL AND TRANSFORM AND LOVE AND CREATE WITH YOUR SACRED WHOLENESS.
WITH YOUR HEART.
In our bones, in our DNA, is power, compassion, birth, destruction, fire, love. We are co-creating with the Creator in our bodies, hearts, and our souls. That’s why there is such resistance and fear when women claim their power. Systems come crashing down, illusions are stripped away, truth is revealed. That’s why we have been afraid of ourselves. Deep down, we feel how powerful we are. We are scared we’re not up to the task. We’ve seen that story reflected back in our culture.
It’s a lie. We are ready. YOU ARE READY.
We are rising. YOU ARE RISING. We are waking from the slumber of denying ourselves the gift of understanding all that we are and using it to be the change in our world (on all levels: global to personal).
The old ways of waiting for the people in power(on all levels: global to personal) to choose us, to accept us, to rescue our voice, give us space for our voice and essence is no longer. We are the people in power. EMPOWERED.
We must create the space for ourselves. We must create the space for each other. We cannot wait for them to choose us or create it for us. WE CHOOSE US.
It’s time to understand how you want to feel in this world. AND ACCEPT NOTHING LESS.
When you sense something out of alignment IT IS. Use the contrast as a reflection of your inner world. And then do the work to OWN YOUR QUEENDOM. This is not luxury thinking. You have it all inside of you, you cannot look to anything external to give your permission to exist and live. Because even in this day and age, there are still people telling some groups of people (global-personal level) that they do not have the right to exist. IT’S A LIE.
I was born a privileged white woman in Oklahoma. I still had to dig through my shit to understand what was inside of me. Because I am a culturally privileged white woman I have a voice that is mostly accepted by the culture, but is it still easy to my mind to speak up? No, because I’ve been conditioned to be nice, to shut up, to laugh off. I’ve been conditioned to accept and allow racism, misogyny, and oppression. DONE. My heart and soul will not allow it.
Any energy against something is still energy towards. So, I’m putting my energy toward personal empowerment, empowering others, and inspiring. My human heart hurts, but I refuse to push against what I have no control over. If I do, I prove it’s power. I choose to be a Queen who lives and creates to inspire, empower, and be a guide to those on the inner journey. I choose to put my energy towards love.
Affirm: I AM A QUEEN. KEEP GOING AND REMIND YOURSELF: I AM WORTHY. I GIVE MYSELF PERMISSION TO RECEIVE ALL THE DESIRES OF MY HEART FOR THE HIGHEST GOOD. And watch life transform before you. It is your job to own it, and no one else’s.
On the deepest level, It is a gift to everyone: your daughters, your sons, your grandchildren, your ancestors, your husband, your parents, your descendants, humanity for you to own all that you are. They may not understand. It’s up to you to understand yourself.
It may be uncomfortable for the people in your life who you enable with your current actions, beliefs, words. But, please KEEP GOING. AFFIRM: I AM ENTITLED TO MIRACLES. Witness them.
Use how you want to feel as a guide. GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO HAVE THE LIFE YOU WANT and ALLOW NOTHING ELSE.
AFFIRM IT LIKE IT’S ALREADY HERE.
It is.
Get to WERK.
I love you, QUEEN.
