It feels like it. 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:20.320 I've been really on my path, doing the work, putting 0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:22.639 that time in, putting that energy in. 0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:25.280 A lot of light work, a lot of shadow work. 0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:30.040 So it's always so beautiful for it to be perceived 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.760 by other goddesses because that means, okay, I must be 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:33.679 doing all right. 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:40.720 This season is about like all path leading to all 0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:44.160 pastilely to you, And I'd like to also the term 0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:46.640 like all passily to God, because you know, there's all 0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:48.720 types of religion, there's all types of beliefs, but like 0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:51.760 who cares? All paths lead to God, and I feel 0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:53.280 like that's the same as all past lead to you, 0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:56.799 because we are God, you know, and our goddesses and 0:02:56.880 --> 0:02:59.480 just now and you're just like singing our praises and 0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:02.840 you know, spitting all the great adjectives. I was just 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:06.640 thinking about like my perception of the word goddess and 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:12.160 that it's like this mystical ancient archetype and like when 0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:13.960 I think of goddess, I think of like literally some 0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:17.480 ancient Egyptian goddess. And I was think, what does it 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.800 look like and feel like to embody a goddess of 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:23.720 this time? And like, because if there was a goddess, 0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:28.519 then there's a goddesses walking amongst us now absolutely, And 0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:33.560 like I just never really truly considered and embodied it. 0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:36.320 And in that moment I was like, huh, oh, well, it's. 0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:40.600 This, it's us right now, truly deep except the goddesses 0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:41.720 of that time knew they were. 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:47.200 Goddesses, right, and that is the deep deception and honestly. Also, 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:48.520 this is. 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.160 A direct colonization of just everything. 0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.520 Yeah, and like honestly, like recently, I've been thinking. We 0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:58.280 are in the first week of February, We're only thirty 0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:01.800 days really into the new year, and I've just been 0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:08.240 thinking deeply about perceptions shift. And it's just like the 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.240 like it's just like you could have one idea and 0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:12.440 somebody come have one conversation with you, and your whole 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.920 fucking shit can be blown up, you know, like that 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:18.080 is the beauty and magic of information and of like 0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:23.000 a malleable mind, but just like perception, and like just 0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:27.560 solely focusing on shifting my perception. And like when you 0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:30.320 said that, I was like, I am a modern goddess. 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:32.680 I am the goddess of my time. We are goddesses 0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:34.640 of our time. And that's why I feel when you 0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:37.440 speak to me, I'm like, oh yeah, but I just 0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:41.120 want to encourage anyone listening, because this is my first 0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:43.599 time ever really doing it. I said the word around 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:46.560 a lot. Goddess, my god, you know, like really really 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:52.960 like thinking of like what is your perception of goddess? Yeah, 0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:57.280 with that power, because if you don't know who the 0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:00.800 fuck you are, that is the biggest fucking fuck of life. 0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:05.240 That is the biggest programming. And like that they've they've 0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:07.720 cloaked us with so we don't know our power. We're 0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:13.280 constantly questioning it, and like, thankfully the goddesses are awakening 0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:16.480 and their wombs are awakening their power. Yeah, we're reclaiming it. 0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:18.160 And so now it's like you speak to me and 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:22.440 I'm like, oh, I'm listening, but yeah, thank you for that. 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:27.320 It was a beautiful breakdown break break Like you could 0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:31.839 study all the goddesses, you could listen to all the 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.839 goddess music, you can read all the books, you could 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:39.120 do all the meditations, and all of that is beautiful. 0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:45.479 But it really does mean something when you know, when 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:49.839 you have that knowing that you are divinity. 0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:53.560 And because it literally. 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:57.520 It's like turning on a light switch and it changes 0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:02.200 everything to walk in that immininity, to walk in that essence. 0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:05.720 Y'all know, I'm not telling you anything you don't know. 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:11.320 And that's part of why I love speaking that life 0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:16.080 and reminding women when I'm in their presence, because I 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:19.479 always imagine a world full of activated women, you know, 0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:25.360 rather than a world full of women that are depressed 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:30.600 or Yeah, or shame, or walking in shame or trauma. 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.960 When we think about a world full of activated women, 0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:38.359 and we activate each other by reminding each other that 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:41.239 we are beautiful. Because even though when I look at y'all, 0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:45.400 I see nothing but beauty and beauty and. 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:49.800 Love and humor. 0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:54.960 And adventure, I see like style and grace and just 0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:59.440 the goddess energy. I know that you may have your 0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:02.039 days where you don't necessarily feel like that. 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:03.800 You know you might have we all do. 0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:07.719 We have our times where we don't feel so, you know, 0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:10.560 embolding in our confidence in those days. And so that's 0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:14.040 why it is important for us to reflect what we 0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:17.480 see and what we feel. And I'm not triggered by 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:20.600 you in any way. I'm inspired by you, and I'm 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:24.280 gonna let you know I'm gonna reflect that. And ultimately 0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:28.680 it's universal law that we are reflections of each other. Right, 0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:32.040 So if that's what I see when I look at y'all, 0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.120 that must mean I'm doing alright in life. You feel 0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:38.560 me better than all right? So this is what I needed. 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:43.080 This is like a check in, a checkpoint, a rendezvous 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.680 of goddesses to just check in with each other with 0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:49.320 the roses and the flowers and the organic wine and 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:50.800 the tarroo and the books. 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:53.520 We needed this, so thank you for having me. 0:07:54.280 --> 0:08:00.000 Yeah, speaking of goddess energy and just like you know you, 0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:02.680 like I said, you're like such a reflection of this 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:07.080 of this goddess archetype that really exists in every single woman. 0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:08.800 But but a lot of women feel like this is like 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.680 the goddess is like an exclusive club of women, Like 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:15.520 it's like this specific archetype of bitches that are like 0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:19.440 a certain way. And it's like, no, like the goddess 0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:22.080 archetype lives in every single. 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.400 Warm men, you know what I'm saying. 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:30.200 And and and I think, I think when I look 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:34.040 at you online, like you you always exude that, and 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:36.120 like you said, like there are days and there are 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:39.520 times when you don't feel like that, Like it's hard 0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:42.400 to connect back to that. So what does Lizzie Jeff 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:45.360 do when she's trying when she needs to like connect 0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:49.720 back to that energy or she's not feeling feeling like 0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:51.920 you know, like going through the motions of feeling like 0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:55.520 I don't feel like a goddess today, or like even darker, 0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:57.319 there's shit, I know, there's days. I mean there's days 0:08:57.320 --> 0:08:59.520 where like you have imposter syndrome, Like what am I? 0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.360 Who am I? You know? I mean maybe not maybe 0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:01.760 not you. 0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:04.880 But I'm just curious what your practice is or what 0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:07.360 you do to like get yourself into God's mode when 0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:08.800 you're not feeling so gott to see. 0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:11.679 Oh my goodness. That's a good question, thank you. 0:09:14.000 --> 0:09:14.280 M M. 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:20.040 Yeah, because I'd definitely be having those days. I'll be 0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:24.760 in my feelings. I'm real sensitive, and I'm working on 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.640 what they say, don't take things personally. That was in 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:31.000 the four Agreements, and that's something that I always go 0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:33.920 back to, is don't take things exactly. 0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:35.800 Is there something I think it's in particular that like 0:09:36.760 --> 0:09:37.920 trigger your sensitivity. 0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:41.480 It's so many things. 0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:47.640 It's so many things, Like because I'm very I consider 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:51.440 myself a very generous person. I love excuse me, I 0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:55.200 love giving and sharing, but in like really intentional and 0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:59.680 creative ways. And I think sometimes I might have a 0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:03.200 little a bit of an expectation of people to be 0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:07.760 that way, and sometimes they might just forget me altogether, 0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:10.360 and that makes me feel some type of way. And 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:12.920 maybe they didn't forget me, they just didn't think about 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:16.520 me in that moment. But it might be someone that 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:21.160 I've been very intentional with that just makes me feel 0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:26.200 the type of way or you know, even just being 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:34.040 a musician. Yeah, just going through moving through stuff. But 0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:37.240 what I like to do, what I if I needed, really, 0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:43.199 I like to move through it naturally. But what I've 0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:46.439 been very adamant and committed to is when I'm moving 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:48.640 through stuff because I'm always in my feeling. It's just 0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:53.880 like my cosmic placements. I always go one hundred percent 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:56.520 on taking care of me no matter what, even when 0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:58.240 I'm grieving really deeply. 0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:00.480 I know, I ever let. 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.840 Myself get too deep where I just go days without 0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:07.960 showering or eating, you know, shit like that. I've had 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:14.200 those moments. But once I'm through it, I'm ragged and 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:16.800 raw and ran through and it's like that doesn't do 0:11:16.880 --> 0:11:21.320 anything for anybody. And so I've been very adamant on 0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:26.360 my herbs every day, even if I can't brew up 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:30.720 my tea, I have my tinctures when I do the roses, 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:33.679 when I'm just in the presence of roses, because roses 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:37.400 have the highest vibration of any flower in the universe. 0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:39.760 So sometimes I just like to put it in my 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:42.800 hand and twirl it, even if I'm so raw and 0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:47.400 rugged in my feelings and I'm ugly crying. I'll bray 0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:52.000 myself with rose water. I'll take a whiff of the roses. 0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:54.520 And it doesn't take me to a hundred right away, 0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:57.760 but it does help me climb back up the ladder 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:01.760 of confidence in goddess hood. And that's the beauty of 0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:05.000 being a woman. That's the beauty of being a goddess. 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:10.800 You have access to all these mystical, miraculous rituals that 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:14.560 you can soothe your heart and soothe your body and 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:17.120 soothe your mind as you're moving through it. And yeah, 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:20.520 I might, you know, want to give me a scoop 0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:24.360 of some vegan like salted caramel ice cream. But I'm 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.280 not gonna sit there and eat the whole damn jar. 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:29.280 I'm gonna have a couple, you feel me, And I'm an. 0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:30.960 I'm not gonna bad heart. 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:31.880 It is hard. 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:32.840 It's hard. 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:43.600 So goddesses honor where they are in the moment, and 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:45.520 they don't judge themselves. 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:47.360 They don't judge themselves. 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:50.400 Okay, it's just it's just should I be moving through 0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:54.640 just like giving myself challenges to not go too deep 0:12:54.679 --> 0:12:56.560 in it. But if I need to go deep in it. 0:12:56.679 --> 0:13:00.240 Fuck it, That's where I'm at. I honor myself. But 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:03.600 that's the fun part is remembering the rituals, remembering who 0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:07.600 you are, mirror work, getting in lingerie, taking a steam 0:13:07.640 --> 0:13:11.800 shower with eucalyptus and peppermint oil, Rubbing your body down 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:15.200 in shade butter oil, you feel me, giving yourself a facial, 0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:19.959 making an avocado breast rub for them nipples like it's 0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:23.559 full moon free bleeding on the earth. It's so many 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:26.200 ways you can like thrive as a goddess. And that 0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:28.040 doesn't mean you have to go out and be the 0:13:28.080 --> 0:13:31.680 life of the party. You can still be in your sanctuary, 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:35.000 honoring where you are, in that raw season that you're in, 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:39.280 but still embodying what it means like to be a 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:43.280 goddess and move yourself through whatever it is you're moving through. 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.040 I guess I feel like activating the senses is like 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:51.920 such a major goddess heck, pretty like to really connect 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:55.440 to your body, connect like just your energetic body to 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:59.640 your spirit to your physical body, and like marrying those senses. 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.320 And I've been using rose oil too, and I've noticed 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:06.600 like how like it's different than any other oil it 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:11.680 is like it really makes me feel so feminine and 0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:17.839 like immediately sexy, immediately sexy and immediately just like. 0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:20.200 Desirable before myself. 0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:23.760 It's like a personal desire that then I can extend 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:26.200 to someone else because there is that kind of desire 0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:34.240 that comes with the red rose I feel like but activates. 0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:36.240 Yeah, but you can feel it. 0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:39.360 You don't need to read too many books about it. 0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:43.000 You just sit with it, and it's giving yourself that 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:53.120 connection with earth too in some way. So is there 0:14:53.240 --> 0:14:57.640 one person on this earth who, if you shared something 0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:01.160 that was real, raw and sensitive with you would care 0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:04.480 about them validating your feelings. 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:09.920 Like I would what I expect and want them to 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:10.960 validate my feelings. 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:11.280 Yeah? 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:15.160 Is there like one person that you can feel safe 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:18.720 and raw with sharing and then you actually care about 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:23.080 what they would share how or them validating your feelings? 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:23.880 Does that make sense? 0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:24.840 Yeah? For sure. 0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:26.560 I think it's Erica and Orlando. 0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:28.320 Okay, Okay, that's beautiful. 0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:30.640 I think like mostly I know I can go with 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:33.720 mostly anything, and honestly, to be true, like it's easier 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:36.760 for me to say things to Erica because this is 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:40.000 our space. Our space isn't talking and maybe not maybe 0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:42.640 if it's like stuff with us Initially like maybe right, 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:45.520 maybe easier to go somewhere else, but like for literally 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:47.680 anything else, it's this is the easiest place. So I 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:49.920 know she's gonna be like, well, you know, that's okay, 0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:55.840 or like you or like you're right okay, or at 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:59.360 least yeah. It's a safe space. And I think I've 0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:04.160 practiced space with her the most authentically, So there's a 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:07.120 level of expectation of like, I do know that you 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.800 know what I mean that I'm trying to practice. I 0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:12.040 am practicing in my relationship, and I feel safe to 0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:14.600 do it. But it's this is a muscle I've exercised 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:15.680 way more here. 0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:17.080 That's deep. 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:20.520 I was thank you for sharing. I was asking because 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:27.520 there I have one or two people that I like, 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:30.160 I care about, you know, if I'm sharing something that's 0:16:30.280 --> 0:16:34.720 raw and vulnerable, and I ask because, well, what what 0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:37.680 how would I want them to validate my feelings in 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:40.840 this moment? What would I want them to say to 0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:44.720 encourage me? And a lot of times I'll tap into 0:16:44.760 --> 0:16:47.800 that energy if it's just me and my solitude and 0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:51.440 my solo work, and say it to myself because I 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:53.760 am really sensitive. Like I said, I think many of 0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:56.760 us are, but it's just a matter of that emotional 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:03.960 awareness maturity. And so somebody like Erica or Orlando, when 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:07.639 you're in your solitude, moving through that shit, you know, 0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:13.800 asking telling yourself what you will want to hear in 0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:16.160 this moment, and that kind of soothes the. 0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:18.440 Just a little bit. 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:24.080 And I think I've I've come to realize that a 0:17:24.119 --> 0:17:26.879 lot of on top of that is like what I 0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:30.520 would want to hear is not generally what I respond with, 0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:39.399 not like maybe maybe not exactly like maybe if you 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:40.879 came to me and said something to me, or you 0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:43.199 did something like how I would want you to respond 0:17:43.200 --> 0:17:44.919 to me may not be the way I respond to you. 0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:48.919 That's not maybe in my nature what I what I 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:51.800 what I actually crave is not actually in my nature 0:17:51.840 --> 0:17:54.320 to deliver. But probably because it's what I crave and 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:57.440 may not always have gotten, you know what I mean, 0:17:57.520 --> 0:17:59.600 Like just because that's what you crave, isn't I mean, 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:02.439 that's what you're that's your nature. In fact, our nature 0:18:02.560 --> 0:18:05.600 is to be not be as compassionate, you know what 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:08.879 I mean. It's like, so it's always a work in 0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:12.760 progress to be in solitude and say what would I 0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:15.879 want to hear and so that you can when someone 0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:18.399 comes to you with something also lead in this same 0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:21.280 space in which you expect. But you have to be 0:18:21.359 --> 0:18:23.400 in space with yourself to know what would I want 0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:25.760 to hear in order to be able to be soft 0:18:25.760 --> 0:18:27.520 with someone else. But a lot of times we're not. 0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:33.400 We're not being ourselves, which is a direct reason why 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:36.000 we can't show up that way for people. And there's 0:18:36.000 --> 0:18:37.119 a disconnect. 0:18:38.320 --> 0:18:40.320 And then there's people that are solved with other people 0:18:40.880 --> 0:18:42.240 and they have no boundaries at all. 0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:45.360 I feel like it goes both ways. That's true. That's true. 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:48.720 So you said there's self with other people, but brutal 0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:54.040 with themselves. Now, I'll admit I'll be tripping sometimes I'll 0:18:54.080 --> 0:18:56.360 be tripping, But it comes with I feel like when 0:18:56.400 --> 0:19:01.159 you wear a crown, which we all do, uh, and 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:06.359 when you step into a particular position of leadership where 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:11.199 people rely or come to you or inspired by it 0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:14.439 does make you care a little bit more. But at 0:19:14.480 --> 0:19:20.640 the same time, it's like, that's why the authenticity part, 0:19:20.760 --> 0:19:23.320 that's why being true to yourself and who you are 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:28.600 is vital, so that nothing or no one's expectations of you. 0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:31.840 I see you in your eyes. 0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:33.680 Just like to make your breath. I'm just like taking 0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:35.200 it like like, yeah. 0:19:35.680 --> 0:19:37.840 There is a toxic goddess culture. 0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:46.840 A TGC toxic god of course, duality, duality. 0:19:47.920 --> 0:19:50.720 Can you give me some examples of toxic goddess culture? 0:19:51.119 --> 0:19:54.639 Well, people that aren't really like it's not like that 0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:58.200 you don't believe themselves. They're not really doing the work, 0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:01.000 you really believe themselves, they're not indeed, they're not doing 0:20:01.040 --> 0:20:03.320 shadow work or not. Even if they're not, they're not 0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:07.520 doing shit. They're I mean, expecting themselves but posting. 0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:08.320 I don't know. 0:20:08.400 --> 0:20:11.680 I just feel like they're just like in any genre 0:20:11.720 --> 0:20:15.840 of whatever the fuck label version of it. 0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:25.480 But with my particular music and lifestyle and body of work, 0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:30.200 I'm I'm really I consider myself, you know, a OG. 0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:32.520 I consider myself a real nigga. 0:20:32.600 --> 0:20:33.119 You feel me. 0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:35.320 I mean, y'all probably gotta bleep that out, but maybe 0:20:35.320 --> 0:20:38.879 you know. But just how I was raised, who I 0:20:39.000 --> 0:20:44.720 was raised by the time, the geographic location, and most 0:20:44.720 --> 0:20:47.720 of my life I was leaning in my masculine energy, 0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:51.600 just being having three brothers, like just being in the 0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:54.840 streets playing ball, et cetera, et cetera. When I finally 0:20:54.880 --> 0:20:59.000 tuned into my feminine energy. It was a real beautiful discovery, 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:03.200 and so I really do my best to balance it. 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:07.480 Now with that comes a lot of people who are 0:21:07.520 --> 0:21:11.000 attracted to the light, who bring light, but also people 0:21:11.040 --> 0:21:14.439 who bring that dark energy as well, and we can't 0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:19.800 overlook the dark energy. But in the spiritual community and 0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:26.879 the wellness holistic lifestyle community, whether it's the festivals, the conferences, 0:21:27.320 --> 0:21:31.480 or the retreats, there's still a lot of that surface 0:21:31.560 --> 0:21:38.720 layer toxic Goddess energy, toxic God energy, which is not 0:21:38.840 --> 0:21:43.960 necessarily a negative thing because God is multidimensionality. 0:21:44.160 --> 0:21:45.919 Goddess is multidimensionality. 0:21:46.640 --> 0:21:49.520 We can be so clean in pristine but at the 0:21:49.560 --> 0:21:52.040 same time humans can be filthy and dirty. 0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:55.160 And so is balance and duality in all things. 0:21:55.200 --> 0:22:00.600 But when that comes up, especially when I'm dealing with 0:22:00.640 --> 0:22:08.239 it from the masculine energy, I advocate for myself. I 0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:11.240 speak up on it. But then it's like she's starting 0:22:11.280 --> 0:22:13.840 a gender war. But it's like, no, all I'm doing 0:22:14.160 --> 0:22:20.160 is holding this energy accountable and having a real conversation. 0:22:20.880 --> 0:22:23.640 So because I feel a certain type of way, I'm 0:22:23.720 --> 0:22:27.520 hurt based on your behaviors or action. Other women are 0:22:27.600 --> 0:22:30.960 hurt based on your behaviors and actions. So can we 0:22:31.040 --> 0:22:35.560 bring certain conversations to the forefront of our culture to 0:22:35.680 --> 0:22:38.800 really talk about stuff that's deeper than the surface layer, 0:22:39.840 --> 0:22:42.240 so that we can move forward and move beyond it. 0:22:42.280 --> 0:22:44.879 Because yes, there is what you said that God is 0:22:44.920 --> 0:22:49.439 toxic culture. But it's like, okay, how do we Okay, 0:22:49.480 --> 0:22:52.719 this is what it is and it's going to always 0:22:52.760 --> 0:22:55.880 be a part of it. But I think that us 0:22:56.000 --> 0:22:58.440 raising those questions as to what it is to hold 0:22:58.440 --> 0:23:02.160 ourselves accountable because because we all should be showing up 0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:06.960 with a top tier mindset, a top tier way of integrity, 0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:09.159 and how we deal with each other and how we 0:23:09.200 --> 0:23:11.359 speak to each other and move with each other, I 0:23:11.400 --> 0:23:14.800 think that is important. So I'm glad you brought that up. 0:23:14.880 --> 0:23:17.480 Maybe that makes sense, Maybe it doesn't. Maybe it's just 0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:18.560 organic wine. 0:23:20.119 --> 0:23:21.920 Organic line is hitting makes sense to me? 0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:33.679 Yes, So, Lizzie, we asked our community, our tribe, We 0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:35.920 told them we were having you back on the show, 0:23:36.080 --> 0:23:38.200 and we had a few questions. 0:23:38.280 --> 0:23:41.919
