Continuing our conversation on masculine containers, I’m discussing a man who’s been pivotal, Joey - My videographer.
A huge growth edge for me has been getting in front of the camera. Even with several projects behind me and comfort zones expanded I am facing some of my biggest fears around visibility right now. (But still showing up with all of you :))
I've always known there's a power in being witnessed. A deep healing in being seen as you are. It was Madelyn Moon who described the energy of the feminine as expression. The masculine is the container and holds the space as a witness. It's his anchored presence that feels so safe for women to express whatever is coming through her.

Joey has always supported my vision of the feminine range and has been the best creative collaborator I could ask for. He helps my vision come to life and my analysis transform into art.
I don't think people realize what I teach, I am actually addressing in myself. Animating the feminine range has been HARD. I've had to look at:
My own biases and judgements
Acknowledge my own fears
Uncover the animations I've repressed to avoid rejection
AND let you all watch me be her while I do it…
The ones I'm most afraid of, Joey is most excited for. Whenever I hold back, he says more. Whenever I'm unsure, he says again. Whenever I have an idea, he says let's do it.

Every fear of being too much, too wild, too gnarly, too chaotic, too sexy, too much of whatever is inside of me; he holds the space. He gives me permission to be even more. He hypes me. He creates with me. And I don't think he realizes it, but he's expanded my range more rapidly than anyone else around me.

I think social media is undervalued in the sense that we all have access to this initiation process. You don't have to create your own production company but in the smallest of ways all you need to do is share. Sharing is the expression that the world is waiting for, desiring in you. Not promoting, proving a point, perfecting angles. Simply sharing.
This is a raw moment of authenticity. And maybe that looks like reposting a funny meme, wrinkled smiles with long time friends, commenting crying eyes on a reel that had you bent over with laughter or posting a timeline hop of a loss you once had.
There's so much to witness. So don't underestimate the power of that position. And certainly don't take for granted the gift of your expression. Children are our best teachers in this. It's simply sharing.
Speaking of sharing your expression! I am currently offering 1:1 sessions for those interested in how to leverage your dominant archetype through animation.
This is for you if you want to:
Express your truth openly with ease so you can speak your mind unapologetically
Discover your authentic needs and how to meet them so you can make empowered decisions
Clarify your romantic patterns so that love flows to you and from you with simply being who you are
Master the art of animation so you bring authentic expression and spicy presentation to the world you live in
Change your mind as you need guilt free so you can take risks that excite you
Deepen your relationships so that longevity and commitment become easy
Be courageous in living life on your terms
This is a live video call starting at 90 minutes with flexibility to go up to 2 hours. This service is only available on Saturdays & Sundays. There is a form to complete prior our session that will allow me to properly guide the conversation.
It’s important to me that we have ample time to identify your specific blueprint to discover what’s working and uncover what’s not. I am blocking off 2 hours to ensure we are fruitful of our time and cover all the relevant information to put you in the best position possible.
By the end of our call you’ll learn
Skillful and unskillful applications of your archetype
Your unique magnetism and attraction with the opposite sex
Subconscious patterns guiding your life (for better or for worse)
How to alchemize insecurities into personal power
Tips & Tricks to animate the full range of your archetype
After our session I provide a google doc to organize all of our findings, my strategies for your specific blueprint and a list of techniques for animation. This is a resource you’ll always have available to you.
Schedule your session with the link below and I’ll reach out to you within 48 hours to confirm the appointment.
