I AM FREE. This was the mantra that anchored me during a very intense and powerful somatic breathwork session I did last night with the one and only @tahum.music (to his incredible original music which was a next level experience). Thank you so much Tyler for your exquisite spaceholding.
Iāve been on a deep purification journey over this past summer, working with the medicines of breath, fasting, herbal parasite cleansing, colonics, Iboga, energy work, psycho-somatic therapy, ritual practices, blue lotus, Jurema and Acacia to truly release all blocks to my life force flowing in its full capacity.
Last night felt like I finally broke through a major emotional body barrier and was able to finally feel everything Iād numbed myself to before - the root causes of my suffering and core wounds of unworthiness and unlovability that were still lingering in my field.
I feel like a brand new person, tapped into Source in a way Iāve never experienced before. I surrender to the flow and trust so deeply in this process of becoming the artist Iām meant to be. This fall is gonna be full on creation mode. I canāt wait!
Thanks for witnessing my journey!

Vid shot by my amazing photographer @millissamartinphotography . Looking forward to sharing more of her amazing work soon!
Magical Manifestation Moment āØāØāØ Three weeks ago I was at Texas Eclipse Festival watching @temple.step.project ās set at Earth Stage. A gorgeous priestess @poppylovecheeks comes up to me in the crowd with rose spritz and invites me into a manifestation ritual.
She asks me to visualize what I desire as if itās happening now. I look over at the stage and envision myself performing alongside a dope DJ like that to co-create a sacred ritual performance with.
Well, I must of signed up for āUniverse Primeā cuz hot damn this one came in fast and precise!
Last night I had the honour of singing over one of my favourite tracks āWarmth of the Sunās Raysā with Temple Step himself in front of all of my closest and dearest friends on home turf in Vancouver!
And if that wasnāt sweet enough, we opened for one of my biggest influences and muses, the one and only @deyadova !
This was my first time channeling my vocal codes on a proper stage. We did a mini sound check before the show but other than that, Ben had no idea was I was gonna sing. I am so thankful for his trust and support. To be seen and elevated this way by an industry powerhouse producer like him was so validating and affirming.
So mom, I did it. Ancient mother is singing herself alive through me. Imma gonna keep singing till the Hathors come home š®š¤ š¹š„°šš»
Thanks to everyone for witnessing me! I canāt wait to do this again! ššš

Tulum felt like a living prayer. āØ
When Scott and I first started dating, I was deep in the study of water consciousness: the science, spirit, and wisdom embedded in her holographic memory. āØ
It felt deeply symbolic that one of our first major journeys together brought us to one of the most sacred water vortices on Earth.āØāØThere was something so healing about being immersed in the elements together... swimming in sacred waters, slowing down, living up the boho lifestyle, eating like royals, dreaming about the future, cleansing our vessels for whatās to come.āØāØHonestly, the first few months of this relationship brought up a lot for me. Old attachment wounds, fear, triggers, moments of shutdown and even obsession.āØāØBut praying with water helped me soften and return to myself again. āØ
And what water showed me again and again was this:āØ
She is sentient.āØShe is listening. āØShe carries frequency.
She remembers.āØShe receives intention.āØShe amplifies. āØShe is evolving with us.āØ
And restoring our sacred relationship with her may be one of the most important acts of devotion we can offer in this lifetime.āØāØIf the life Iām living now isnāt a testament to the power of communion with Earth and water, I honestly donāt know what is.āØ
This is what can happen when you refuse to settle - when you keep tending your inner waters until the right person comes along to meet you there. š¦š§š“

Back in 2020, I took a random chance and stumbled into one of Sofiahās online summits⦠and my life was never the same.
That three day event opened the doorway to a whole new world of divine feminine embodiment, which led me to remember my deepest purpose here on earth.
I couldnāt imagine what my life would look like if I wasnāt led into the priestess temple body mysteries.āØ

Picked up my guitar for the first time in a couple years and channeled a devotional to Hathor. Sheās my creative cow midwife. š®
Iāve been ruminating on my relationship with music and art a lot lately. Like any relationship, itās something that grows and strengthens when itās prioritized.
Although Iāve been super standoffish and non-commital over the years, somehow she doesnāt hold a grudge. Thatās how I know itās unconditional.
My biggest breakthrough has been to treat the art-making process like a meditation, and honestly itās better than anything else Iāve tried at bringing me into presence.
FYI, Iām gonna be switching up my content here soon to help spiritual entrepreneurs build their businesses like temples, but in the meantime, enjoy this stream of light straight from the Neteru (divine forces of creation). This still seems to be the radio station Iām dialled into so I hope itās helpful.
May it spark your creativity and inspire you to get out of your own way and express from the heart. ā¤ļø

Posting this highlight reel from my 40th birthday on Motherās Day for a few reasons:
1. The day I was born was the day my mama was initiated into motherhood. Our karmic contract turned out to be a deep one.
2. I regret not having my mom there to celebrate, but at the time our relationship was strained due to her disapproval/misunderstanding of my lifestyle and beliefs. Itās slowly getting better. Iām glad the videographer included her photo at the end of the reel, because I really did want her to be there.
3. The 6 month update is that my biggest birthday prayer came true! After 3 years of praying and searching, I finally found a partner to build a life and family with! Thanks to all my friends for helping me amp up that prayer! It happened within 2 weeks of this party!
4. Itās been 6 years since my abortion, and I am forever grateful for everything that experience taught me, especially how to die to be reborn.
5. Even though my mother and I still donāt quite see eye to eye, Iām forever in awe of her strength and resiliency and am so grateful to have her in my life. If it wasnāt for her, I wouldnāt be able to live in this city!
Hereās to my mama Jenny Cam, my sister Kristina and all the other mamas (and mother frequency carriers) who put their all into their families and communities every day!

Oh Sedona⦠you magical place you. You taught me listening, stillness, humility, reverence and awe.
Your living temples and red earth cathedrals supported our union so beautifully.
Your womb caves birthed us into new portals of possibility.
We meditated, roamed, climbed, offered, bathed, sang, danced, feasted, played and prayed. Every day was pure bliss!
To do this with a beloved who is so high on life and tapped in to Source is a total dream come true. @adventures_scott I love doing life with you babe!
Thank you and all our new friends for welcoming us and our rolling temple Betsy to your sacred vortex.
We hope to see you again very soon!

Two months on the road communing with Gaia with my love and Iām not the same.
I captured so much and yet itās not quite time to share the highlight reel. It doesnāt really matter anyway - Iāve finally outgrown my need for vanity signalling and validation on this platform.
Hereās whatās new and true:
Novel voices and embodied insights matter, so I will no longer use AI to write my posts (I didnāt really do this before anyway, but Iām stating this for the record)
Iām going through another major rebirth. Like major major.
Itās very much still in process, but it has a lot to do with how I show up online (working with an energy sucking attention farm that everyoneās addicted to) and what matters to me (aka not being online so much). I feel the interference too much to stay in the city - more on that later.
Confession: I used to use IG to impress/attract a mate and feel pretty. I used to check my IG stories 20x/day to see if my crush looked. I used to let it dictate my mood and how I felt about myself.
I was in a terrible limerence cycle that distracted me from building my shit properly and serving for real.
Now that Iām over that and in a great relationship with a man who couldnāt care less about my posts (even as devotional as they sometimes are), Iām going to try my darnedest to actually provide value to everyone who tunes in.
Warning: I have less fās to give so please excuse/embrace the cynicism.
Over the past couple years, I thought I was productive doing tons of trainings, offering some energy work and the odd course, and although Iām grateful for the spaciousness afforded to me, I realized I gave myself too many excuses and slacked on actually helping more people due to a bunch of subconscious stuff I have since moved through (took me 2 straight months of galavanting in vortexes and meditating to uncover this).
Flow Priestess has come full circle, and itās time for me to support entrepreneurs in building their businesses like temples.
Itās been under my nose this whole time and yet took me 6 years to finally land on (good thing Iām dating a pilot skilled in the art of safe arrivals.) More to come!
Thanks for following along friends! š¹
Beltane Releasing Ritual - Letting go of 2 months of sacred travel gatherings from Gaia and saying farewell to my homeland of Vancouver. Hereās to a new chapter living closer to nature in the Kootenays!
Six months of loving you makes all the lifetimes it took to get here worthwhile. Spirit sure delivered!
You put the purrr into pura vida!
Thanks @adventures_scott for being the best partner I could ever ask for!
