I am 42 years old with three kids and have pretty much been a stay at home mom for the last 14 years. I’m now thinking about my future and considering going back to school for my masters so I can continue on in my previous career path. It is absolutely terrifying and I feel both excited and wtf am I doing. This was such a confirming post for me to read because I do let fear of the unknown direct me a little too much. Thanks so much for sharing and giving me some courage. ❤️
This post and message could not ring more true for me. I am currently in treatment for breast cancer and yesterday finally reached of place of release for my hair. I "cold capped" during my first chemo treatment 2.5 weeks ago but then suffered through a whole cascade of chemo side effects. Earlier last week, I asked myself, "what can I do to make this process easier, not harder, for myself?" And letting go of my hair is the answer that came to me. It took me 4-5 days to finally get to a full place of peace and then last night my mom and I blasted Taylor Swift while she chopped it all off. It was honestly one of the most liberating things I've ever done. So thank you for sharing such an affirming message at just the right time.
Also, thanks for sharing about your mom and how your connection with her has continued after she died. My dad passed away right before Christmas so I am fairly early in the grief journey but I also am trying to stay connected to him, especially as I navigate a really hard journey in my own life.
Kathleen, I am so sorry to hear you are battling breast cancer. I can imagine this is not the path you expected and are now needing to make so MANY decisions. It brings me so much joy to know that this message absolutely confirmed and affirmed your choice to let go of your hair. What a wonderful memory to get to build with your mom, too!
I am loving these mystic mondays! I’m a sorta awesome listener from nearly the very beginning and it is so wonderful to have you back in my ears and feed. I came here to say that If you do end up deciding someday that you’re interested in delving into the tarot, Meg Jones Wall has an amazing tarot resource podcast called Card Talk that takes you into it from the very basics with lots of wonderful permission and open-ended tips for how to create your own relationship with the cards! Thanks again for this beautiful way to start our collective week ❤️
Thank you, Jessica! I am really loving the freedom to get into sharing and learning more in the realm of all things mystical. It brings me so much joy to know so many of our Awesomes are into this stuff, too! THANK YOU for the heads-up on the Card Talk podcast - I will check it out ASAP!!
This is beautiful. I’m turning 50 next week and feels like a page turn is coming up. I’m looking forward to your post on spirituality. I still attend a church but I’m not really sure what I believe in these days. If anything I might identify as a mystic, but do we really need to label things so much? Sending peaceful thoughts your way.
I'm with you - I really have given up on trying to label everything! And sometimes, it feels like even that stance needs a label - lol. I'm absolutely with you in the energy of turning the page!

Vanessa, that sounds awesome! Sending you lots of prayer for wisdom and guidance on the next right step to take!
