Woooww Jade, thank you for sharing ♥️✨ It takes a lot of love and strength to handle this situation like you did. QUEEN 👑 “There is really nothing to defend when you are certain in your own character and response-ability.” OOEEHH I love the dash between response-ability. That opens up a whole new dimension for me. But this one is about judgement. I love this topic because we all do it. And it’s a whole journey to become aware of it. I learned: Your ability to judge is sometimes needed! But there is a difference between judging a situation by trusting your gut that something or someone is unsafe for you, or judging others and yourself for any form of expression. Compared to the environment I grew up in, I was never too quick to judge someone. (Or so I convinced myself…) It is been deeply engraved in me to defend others that are being judged behind their back. If someone looked different, and the person I was with made a judgy comment on it, I’d bite. And by that I mean I would get angry with them for making a joke or comment. I couldn’t understand why they’d say such a thing. But I am starting to realise it was never about the third person that was being judged. It was a display of character. One person judging someone they didn’t know because of their own insecurities, and me judging them for judging someone they didn’t even know. Although this came from my heart, getting angry with the judger was not the right way to approach the situation. They might have judged the person passing by, but I was actually judging a person I wanted to feel connected to. There was no pointing at the real issue: expression wasn’t safe. Judgement was a cool armour to wear. And I was wearing it too, though it looked different. Not as cool. (There are many layers here I hope you can still follow me) I try not to make people feel bad for judging anymore, though sometimes they do feel that way when I ask them why they do it. I ask myself why I do it too (instead of judging myself, which I got good at too…) And it is up to me to stay connected to my heart. Take of the armour that I wear, and maybe with that, show someone that I connect with that it’s safe for them to take of that armour too.

🌺 I slow down. I feel my feet on the ground. I remember that whatever I do, as long as it comes from my heart, from love, it’s good enough. I don’t want to be afraid anymore. Choosing and creating from a place of fear has never given me peace. I now see peace is here in the moment that I remember I am the muse, the artists, the creation.

It has been so scary and soooo inspiring. The strength that you dreamgirls give me is groundbreaking. Like a beautiful earthquake shaking me awake. Telling me to be, breathe, and come back to the solid ground within me. My inner Dreamgirl inspires me to be fully seen and expressed because she is reminding me she’s here whatever happens in the outside world. She is very present in the mirror, in my breath and in stillness. 🪞

I think that messiness is beautiful, and it has so much potential too! Being messy means being human. Perfection doesn’t exist, so don’t let it take away the possibility of birthing whatever you want into existence 🌅 I can make space for this by carving out time to play, and allowing myself to create without knowing the outcome 🎶✏️

A lot came up for me with this question. To activate pleasure means to do before I think about what I’m doing. This is very hard for me but I never realized it took away pleasure. Thank you for opening my eyes 🌀♥️
