Takeaways from 30 days - 30 IG posts in Aprilā¦
Mostly- I feel invited to go deeper.
To share more heart ..
to share more truth
to share more story
And to use my voice as a tool to do so
Weāre here on this rock to CREATE and ENJOY. Letās do both? šš
Huge gratitude to @ignitethesocialspark / @dezmariahxx for holding me in this container and believing in me + my voice š„¹
If youāre ready to view this subconscious mirror of yourself and learn what gifts are waiting to be uncovered .. give this diva a follow.
For me, expect more of my face around here š
Purple sunsets / hot tea
Your ability to enjoy life is directly correlated to the conscious awareness of the things that bring you joy.
Count your blessings, daily, and theyāll multiple.
What you track; attracts
Where your attention goes; energy flows
It can be the little things..
Stop & smell the flowers today.
You truly are wealthier than you know.
The hardest job I ever worked was retention for DirecTV.
Like, when you called in heated and cursed past the first customer service rep.. Iām your guy.
This was after my freshman year of college.. while I was in crutches, recovering from a knee replacement.
As a young call center associate- I learned a lot, but MORE THAN ANYTHING, I learned something not so surprising..
It seems obvious these days - but apparently I had to have the time in the trenches to FEEL it.
I learned that people DISDAIN cable companies:
Like, drastically and unequivocally do not like the way our ISP + TV networks are established..
The unpredictable costs, 20%+ regulatory fees, and service so monopolized it doesnāt even need to work.
My college days feels like a lifetime ago : and fortunately that job didnāt last past the summer.
These days, Iām on the other side of the table.
Iāve spent 14 years in the technology world so that I know what tools work, what donāt, and how to implement seamlessly.
The origin story lead us here..
Did I mention Iāve found a way to help businesses with these problems for free?
These days I consult for businesses : helping them find & implement better technology.
Yup, free consulting.
Phone bill questionable?
Internet dropping?
Cybersecurity confusion?
I specialize in these things, and help you find the best solution for your biz without charging you a dime.
This is Curiosidy Consulting, and Iād be honored to YOU, the people I love, with better tools and workflows.
So, let me ask you..
if you could wave a magic wand - what tech needs fixed in your business?
DM for free advice:
- voice / UCaaS / telecom
- network / internet / SDWAN
- cloud backup
- cybersecurity
- IoT
- AI workflows / integration
Iām here for you, fam š
I recently stumbled upon videos from 2019 ..
This, isnāt that.
This is a 20 minute intuitive flow ~
(Shorted to 2 mins for IG)
A snapshot and document for where Iām at with my body in April 2026.
BUT THE FOOTAGE I DISCOVERED!
At first review.. embarrassing. š GoPro evidence on where I was with my body - just finding vinyasa for the first time in my life.
@BohoBeautifulLife YouTube on my iPad -
Alone in my apartment -
Mat laid next to a big plant -
And a body that felt āstrongā at the time.
But by witnessing this past version of myself .. I can witness what I didnāt know then.
I can see the way my wrists are tight, my shoulders arenāt straight. I can see the geometry difference, and size difference.
Not only that, watching myself yoga showed my 2019 version and examples of strength at that time. Especially noticeable via chaturanga/vinyasa transitions - a movement Iāve NOW been through thousands of times.
Vinyasa flow is the litmus test of a yoga class.
Howās my body feel?
Whereās my energy at?
And to see this contrast - to know that 7 years of work & strength & love & attention for my body has been a beautiful discovery.
And yet, Iām still so curious to exactly the way my body IS today.
Exploring what is today, strengthens for tomorrow.
Hereās to documenting my process of life more regularly: starting with the physical.
Healthy body, clear mind, strong spirit.
What process for yourself are you capturing these days? Where could you document more? šø
The mother -
The presence of the home ~
Not the structure, but the substance.
The caring, nurturing, the smell of beans and cornbread cooking.
If we are lucky.. A grandmother holds a special place in our heart and childhood.
One year ago (to the day), this matriarchal icon left our world š
She was as fiery as her red hair š„
She showed us what strong feminine energy looked like.
She didnāt take shit from anyone.
She could out-shoot us all at darts..
and somehow, she made everybody feel like they were her favorite.
8 years old, the day after surgery she gifted me my first gaming console.. A PS2, Tony Hawk Pro Skater, and a bean bag chair.
āYouāre gonna need something to do while you healā
For years before I could drive, Iād bike to her house. Weād play in the backyard like kids should. Run around, swim, laugh until our stomachs hurt, drink coffee together like I was already grown.
Sheās likely the reason for my current coffee addiction..
Sheās also the reason I know love can be fierce and gentle at the same time. Firm yet loving.
(š, IYKYK)
Iām blessed to have the powerful examples and teachers in my life that I do. Life hit hard after you left..
Miss you, Granny ā¤ļø
Today, for me, āauthenticā looks like this expression of serious ideas related to my career in the most professional tank top I own.
Thereās poetry in the paradox.
Happy Sunday, dear friends ā„ļøš§£
Sometimes what your body needs is gentle - fluid - sensitive. āÆļø
Letās talk about both sides here, in the context of movement š¤øš¼
Yea, the fast paced, heavy sweat and 180bpm heart rate can be one of my favorite parts. High intensity, digging deep..
But itās IN that work & therefor a result of those workouts, that something else opens up.
In those deep places weāve dug to -
Let there be time to play / explore / listen to the gentle sensations of the body. Especially when in deep stretches, or engaged work.
You know, those one unseen nooks and crannies? (Hips, anyone?)
But ACTUALLY:
**any intentional time on your mat IS the practice. As long as youāve decided to show up- thereās no right or wrong way to do so**
It doesnāt always need to be exhilarating..
thereās magic in the subtle.
Magic in the feminine.
Magic in the hold ~ the breathe.
Itās almost as if , all the work - the fitness- the health- the care for our body : does indeed have its rewards.
The yang does indeed have its balance.
The fruit is sweet, and again.. subtle.
This is why I listen to my body. This is why I understand itās an evolving and life long journey together : me and my vessel.
Play big! And also play soft.
Both are divinely beautiful.
You are here to breath~
Be here Now and find your flow
Clams, dude?
Iām grateful for the ocean that grew them, grateful for the hands that caught them, grateful for the fire that cooked them!
Honoring our food is easier when we are more near its source.
Knowing these clams evolved in the same waters rushing over my sandy toes ..
Itās fun, the way life continues to dish out paradoxes. š
Local seafood while in Mexico,
Practicing intentional eating ..
But then also āfree tequila shot, compliments of the chef ?ā
SHOUTOUT PEDRO!
Weāre here for a good time..
And a long time šš»šŗ
Eating whole / healthy / happy food.
Input ~> output
for me, this weekend, thatās sunny beach vibes, close friends, and a seafood indulgence or two.
Happy Friday! āļøšš¶
The shift is like this :
Any time you notice yourself saying/thinking ā I have to do this.. or I need to do thatā
Choose a reframe!
āI GET to do thisā¦ā
Itās something in your life / path for a reason. Embrace it with joy - with recognition of the gift of life.
The obstacle is the way.
Can you go beyond trusting the process, and truly try on LOVING the process?
Enjoy each step.
Enjoy the dishes.
Enjoy the things you say yes to,
Because you said yes for a reason.
So show your thrill / enthusiasm & excitement for life!
We love to see it, you know.
Whatāre you saying no to?
Whatāre you exclaiming yes towards?
You ever thought about āsoupā?
I think itās kind of intriguing that our modern culture has all but forgotten about a good olā fashion stew.
TBH, Itās rarely something Iād order off menu for myself -
But it is INDEED a staple of my meal prep part of life.
I enjoy bulk cooking in the crock pot- which is usually enough food for about four square meals.
Itās a bit different every time - usually the seasoning / peppers mostly, but here are the staples :
- ~3lb of chuck roast beef
- Baby organic carrots
- While celery, cut into 1ā pieces
- Sliced baby bella mushrooms
- Sliced sweet peppers
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 can of water
- Salt + pepper + steak seasoning
Throw in the pot in the AM ,
Let simmer for 6-8 hours on low,
Enjoy soup or on sandwich or however you want to consume!
What if you were to feed yourself only whole and natural foods? How would your body feel?
Curious.. Have I ever fed you this in our lives?
Any recommendations to add / tweak / try new things?
Genuinely curious .. is LMNT the best electrolyte supplement company?
Why or why not should I be drinking ~ 10 of these per week?
