Hi Tatum. we are planning a trip with our daughters (15&10) to Peru. could u please help me unravel, so i can do the same for my daughters, malaria and yellow fever and how to align divine amidst the narrative and the YF vaccine mandate . i thought to post this to u for your next Q&A but not quite sure where to do that?

I thought I had given enough fair warning that Friday’s social hours would be hit or miss for me (unless I’ve heavily packed the socials with special guest offerings that require advertisement and social coordination with the guest), but yesterday I was especially unorganized; it was originally slated as a Book Club I never got to picking a book for, but to boot, I kept thinking it was Thursday all day, and then was knee-deep in chicken pot pie when I opened my phone and my own SKOOL told me the LIVE was live… A quick assessment of my surroundings and escapability told me I was obviously (divinely?) meant to miss this one. And as I mentioned previously, I was otherwise comforted by the fact that I had already warned I would probably miss some of these, despite then making them more action-packed on the schedule lol… I apologize if this was disappointing for you or if you made extra efforts to be in my presence, specifically, but I would like to maintain this boundary and this allowance for myself. I share a ton about the ridiculousness that is walking my life, but yall have no actual clue… lol. The instagram is the least of my spiritual warfare. I’m sure I will share all aspects at some point but it just feels truly unfair sometimes. There is not a single front for which I am not fully engaged in battle, and yet I’m still doing everything I can to stay grounded and present and loving for my kids… it’s a full time job in every single perpetual now moment. I’m being chiseled and honed by that asshole Pluto… gratitude you mf 🙏 I am, however, re-oriented to time (with my 2am heartburn wake-up call and a fresh bentonite clay water on the rocks, bartender) and planning for a big educational Zoom on Sunday with Corrie (definitely taking up a ton of brain space!!), and then will probably need to adjust some things if there is too much pressure for me to be present in October… I’m officially waddling, and with shorter days and longer nights, the bedtime routines come quicker (we actually love winter for this reason lol, but it makes the 6pm window a little more difficult for me). I was assured last time I missed that just having the link posted would be good to allow you all to still gather without me… Do you all still want this? Or should I plan to just create Zooms that I can personally commit to? In which case I’m not sure me and this particular time slot are friends right now… It’s a rough hour to ditch the husband to do all the things after a long (short) day with 4 almost 5 feral wildlings (hoping for a Sagittarius this time, fyi).

Hello tribe, First, please allow me to share the email that has sparked this conversation: "Hi Tatum. Greetings from South Africa. I managed to join a Sparkly hour a few weeks ago which was so invigorating even tho it was 2 in the morning – however it did flatten me abit for Saturday, which brings me to a question, suggestion. Would there be a way to share the sparkly hour as an email share after the gathering if everyone who participates is comfortable with that. Not a permanent zoom recording on your website but a share so that those of us out of the time line can enjoy with a cupppa in the sun and feel the connection albeit not live…." So this is a request to RECORD these sessions, however if it hasn't been totally obvious, this particular time slot (Fridays 6:30pm Montana time) has been becoming more of a struggle for myself to attend. To add to this, I feel as the days get shorter, and bedtime gets earlier (and then another infant joining the mix), it might be even more of a struggle - dinner-time, bed-time with 4/5 young children is next level warfare IYKYK... So as much as I treasure these socials, personally, I am quick to log off at 7:30pm and it's usually to an apocalypse kind of situation... the kids and the husband are DONE. I think they are valuable and I have no plans to change them right this second, but with this request to record, I have also thought about the possibility of doing a different time slot one each week? To accommodate different time zones, or give more flexibility to who wants to join? This month, the last Friday social hour was changed to the BOOK CLUB meeting at 11am MONTANA TIME (to accommodate Shannon's Hawaii time availability) and I think it's a nice switch up! I was kind of thinking maybe each Friday could be a different time Zone, with the Book Club always landing on the last Friday. Furthermore, if I could sort of share Hosting responsibilities, I think I could still participate from the kitchen or from a screaming melting down house with a little more ease...

I’ve been feeling quite nostalgic lately. After Tatum sent me a piece of forest from Montana, an old love has been rekindled. I grew up walking in forests and foraging mushrooms and berries. I believe it was my happy place. Now that I’ve been away from any forest for 24 years I yearn for it deeply. I came across this short documentary and it is making my heart so full 🥰

I am so excited and inspired by this community, and right out of the gates mind you, and right when Instagram booted me, several of you rallied in such a big way in support of this community, and it was like a cup of ceremonial cacao for me 🥰🙏🙌 And especially, one Miss Claudia, who has piped up in every dialogue and has brought such a full basket of communal abundance that she has single-handed inspired a monthly award, the Renaissance Wellness Gathering Award! Each month, that kind of participation will be rewarded with a Renaissance Wellness gift of your choice (a clay, an oil, a mug, or a printed Renaissance Wellness magazine) 🤗 SKOOL makes the winner obvious, but for me, this was so much bigger and more meaningful than a point system… Claudia brought heart and pure intention to not only not walk her isolated anymore, but I know I’m not alone in catching some of her confidence and motivation to participate. She made this the easiest transition for me, and the easiest award to create, because her contributions and efforts made that big of a difference… Thank you, Claudia, for inspiring us all to take those big bold uncomfortable steps in the right direction. You have shown us what putting your heart out there looks like, and we are all so much better for you being here 🥹🙏🥰❤️‍🔥🐉💫✨ So now… Will she win it two months in a row? Or does she inspire YOU to share your own unique voice with the gathering in a little bolder of a way? Either way, how fun for us to get to find out together 😍🥹🙏💫✨🙌🌹
