This is literally such an important and subtle topic right now, both for me personally and for our collective… I think it’s at the root of all extractive and hierarchal behavior. About to go back and read again 🥲🙏

Thank you!

This one arrived quickly and didn't want to wait. I read it to someone dear to me just after finishing it and it was a profoundly healing experience, a shift in our way of seeing each other after 30+ years of being chosen family. I was not expecting that.

Perhaps our need for validation, our perceived lack in separation, is what drives extractive and hierarchical behavior. Certainly I remember, in my younger years, striving to succeed in competition and feeling that I could only be *more than* or *less than* when I really wanted to just be *enough*. I think you have helped me to see where I need to go next with this.

Yes to all of this… it is huge, and also so subtly entwined in our DNA at this point.. but the moon once told me in a dream that she can unwind and rewrite our DNA… so we are never truly stuck!! Very much looking forward to where you lead us next.
