Finding My Soul in Mexico City: A Journey of Healing and Authentic Business
Week 3 in Mexico City and my soul is ALIVE. ✨
Between fresh papaya breakfasts, rebirth ceremonies under the full moon, and temazcal sweat lodges chanting gratitudes to our ancestors, I'm remembering what it means to truly take care of myself.
Last night was intense in the most beautiful way. 🌙
I connected with a third-generation medicine woman, held sacred space with mushrooms native to this land, and cried the kind of tears that cleanse generations of pain.
If you've been following my healing journey, you know this isn't just about me - it's about breaking cycles that have held our mothers, grandmothers, and ancestors in patterns of survival. 💗
(And yes, I got my v*gina steamed here with a womb healer who created a special concoction with ancient herbs - TMI? Maybe.)
But after my journey with that 13cm fibroid, working myself to complete burnout, and finally learning to slow down, you know how committed I am to deep womb healing.
This is the kind of ancestral care my mother never got to experience as a widow trying to keep our family afloat. 🌺
Why This Matters for Your Business
This freedom I've created in my business started when I stopped believing in the bro marketing bullsh*t that says we need to manipulate people into buying.
You've probably noticed how I do things differently in my content, right?
No fake urgency.
No "last chance" BS.
Just real talk about what's actually working - including my unfiltered, unapologetic take on what's happening to our people right now.
While others stay silent about DEI being dismantled and our rights being stripped away (see my latest email here), I'm speaking up and getting unsubscribed and shadow-banned, but I do not care because my values are more important than making sales.
Because how can we talk about "business as usual" when there's nothing usual about what's happening to our communities? 💗
Ancestral Wisdom Meets Modern Business
The medicine showed me something powerful: our ancestors didn't survive so we could shrink ourselves to fit into someone else's marketing template.
Speaking of what works - listen to the latest episode here about the 3 AI tools I use DAILY to help our community land feature after feature (without the sleazy tactics).
From creating professional speaking one-pagers to analyzing media presence and finding the perfect pitch angles based on past coverage - we're using AI to amplify authentic stories, not replace them. ✨

Here's what's different about how we do it:
We use AI to enhance our human connection, not replace it 💗
Every pitch stays true to your unique voice and values 💗

No cookie-cutter templates or mass spam emails 💗
I just dropped a quick and dirty episode breaking down the exact 3 AI tools I use daily to help our PR members get consistent wins.

It's the same tools that helped one of our members go from unknown to landing in Forbes, NYT, and speaking on global stages.
The best part? These tools help you stay in your zone of genius while automating the busy work. Because let's be real - you didn't start your business to spend hours researching media contacts or analyzing competitor coverage.

And if this post has you thinking "this isn't for me" and if you are offended by my use of the word v*gina - that's okay too! This isn't for everyone.
I'm here for the ones ready to break the mold, not follow it. 🦋
❤ With ancestral wisdom and modern tools,
