i went live today on my YouTube channel to share our January cardβlate, i know. But still really important. Important because so often we talk ourselves out of doing something because we tell ourselves, "It's too late"βlike i almost did this morning. Before i hit the "Go Live" button, i was swarmed with thoughts like ππ½ It's the LAST WEEK of JANUARY, Brandi! And my favorite dream killer (and my personal saboteur of choice): Who the fuck cares anyway? We often believe and feel that the "enemy" is outside usβthe nondescriptive "they" as in my other favorite, What are THEY going to say? But really our greatest dream crusher is our own voice. The one that ππ½ Talks us out of ever starting. Talks us out of sharing what's on our heart. Talks us out of giving the gift of our art, vision, and soul-self by buying into the bullshit we tell ourselves about it being too late or not good enough. And, in 2025 and beyond, i want to invite you/me/we/us to stop selling ourselves short, cutting ourselves off, or killing our dreams before they even have a chance to seed their greatness inside us. Because this year--and these next four yearsβwe are going to need your art, voice, work, creativity, and spirit now more than ever. And 5 days (the number of days left in this first month of 2025) is a long time if we use them intentionally and attentionally (ππ½ my 2 words for this last week in January). What will you intend to do this week, i wonder? For me, these next 5 days, i'm giving my attention to YOU. π€
And in going live this morning, sharing the truth of my heart with you and our card for January, The Fool. Your turn! What will you give your precious attention to? My hope is that it's showing up to your creativity, art, words, and work, friends. It's time. You/i/we/us are ready. ππ½ in lak'ech PS. i'd love for you to join me Wednesday for my first popup workshop of the year, How To Use Writing & Journaling To Change Your Life. It's free for members of The Wild Dream Journal Club and a minimal investment of $22 for non-members. Hit reply to this email with any questions you have! i hope to see you there! β β |
i've had A LOT of Wild Dreams in my past. But perhaps my biggest Wild Dream flex is my drag career. i've written a lot about it in all three of my drag books. And whenever i start talking about or explaining what a Wild Dream is, i go back and share that story. (True story, π€£ as i actually share it again in Day 1 of the Ignite Your Wild Dreams Challenge i'm hosting this weekπ€£π€£.) People in my own LGBTQIA+ community told me i couldn't do it because i was born a "real" girl.* When i said i was...
