I just wrote this while prepping for a conference call tomorrow in which I’ll be the featured artist/cowgirl

“The Legendary Living mentorship has changed me. I’m not trying to become the person I always wanted to be. I’m spending time with the person I actually am right now and finding out that she’s more than I ever hoped to be. I’m already an artist, poet, writer. I had caught glimpses of all those parts of me, but having two paintings in my bedroom and one in the studio, having a set of poems and writing a Chronicle of Legendary Tiisi makes it real and tangible. But the best part, for me, is seeing that what I took for granted – my natural affection for people, the way I approach people and see their beauty so clearly that they can’t help but see it themselves – is a huge and needed gift to the world. I’ve also learned how being in community is a big part of creating transformations that endure, that last beyond the workshop or the weekend. These women I’m with in the mentorship – I’m in love with each and every one of them. I feel fierce about their self-care and self-talk. I feel protective and protected.

I can see how being an active Cosmic Cowgirl will ripple into my interactions with every person I encounter and how it will keep me on track and moving forward, using my gifts. I’m serious about an adoration revolution. I want every woman I know to adore herself. ADORE. And it’s rooted in adoring that which we are born with, freely given by Divinity (however you define that). I can see how my gift of finding and creating the ridiculous is needed, the same way we need serious, thoughtful dialogue and quiet contemplation. We need a sense of whiskey wolf wildness! By being who I am, I can be a gift of bright thread in our quilt. Someone else may be the strong stitching around the edge that keeps us together. Who we are right now is exactly who we are needed to be and we are all legends.

The beast likes living among compassionate mirrors that show me that all I have to do is be me and that’s extraordinary.
