I’m a bitch I’m a lover I’m a crazy ass mother seriously ask my kids shirt, tank top, unisex tee

Natural Selection. My son was 3 and those first years of being a single mom brought me to my knees and made every day seem impossible. It’s very unnatural to raise a child one-on-one, and when I got my first cold sore ever it totally kicked my low-immune system ass. For weeks I literally showed up to my classes, workshops and festivals I performed at with raw and bleeding lips. Everyone cringed when they saw me up close. I kept going because I couldn’t afford to mess up my income or the schedule it hinged on. The stress of babe in arms, getting a sitter and running out to teach every night, not to mention marketing classes and workshops, already made me feel like every day was impossible. And now I was struggling like mad with a runaway virus.

I was free from my past life corporate job, but by being an yoga-meditation-archetype teacher/counsellor/professional hand-holder/singer I had jailed myself in a new way. There was nothing else to do. I surrendered… I could no longer afford the struggle. That’s I’m a bitch I’m a lover I’m a crazy ass mother seriously ask my kids shirt. I realized that if every day was in fact impossible, then why the heck was I worrying? It was so transforming, it became my mantra, “why worry, why worry, why worry” and it gave me back a ton of energy, enough to heal from the virus completely, attract community to help raise my son and call in just the right mentors out of nowhere. When one of them suggested I become a coach I actually couldn’t relate.

This may seem like I’m pushing coaching, but I’m not. I’m pushing freedom. A decade later coaching is still a wild-west profession where you can show up as you are if you’re brave enough. It holds the potential to take us back to natural selection, because the ones that go deep and know how to help others will be able to create transformation in the world. If someone genuinely has something of value, and if they are strategic in being seen for that, they will be supported by that. Because that’s how they contribute to humanity. Now looking back, even though I couldn’t wrap my head around it until I was actually doing it, it worked anyway, and it was one of the best shifts I ever made professionally.
