Buckle up. This one’s a ride.
We honestly joked that the whole thing could’ve just been a blooper reel LOL but buried inside the Moana 2 quotes, pizza-cupcake metaphors, fat cat analogies, and all the giggles…
There’s something real here. Something tender. Something we both needed to say out loud, and maybe you needed to hear??
We hold our usual nuance and throughout this episode of Musings & Magick, we tumble through:
- The guilt and shame around wanting “too much”
- The difference between curated echo chambers and real, messy community
- The tug-of-war between honoring our natural limits and still longing for more
- Letting go of labels like “lazy” or “productive” and just meeting ourselves where we are
If you’ve ever felt like you’re too much or not enough…
If you’ve craved a life or business that doesn’t ask you to hustle through your exhaustion…
If you’ve wondered whether your desires were holy or selfish or both…
This one’s for you.
Take a deep breath, love.
This conversation is full of real life, big questions, sideways laughter, and sacred tangents. It’s messy. It’s nourishing. It’s a reminder that you’re not alone, and you’re not doing it wrong.
Things We’re Chewing On:
- “Everything can be medicine, everything can be poison.” (Thank you, Quiddist, inspired by her recent Beyond Dogma series)
- The quiet ways we limit ourselves, and the wild permission of Mother energy to want more.
- Why your business has to run through your own filter. (Seriously, are you baking cupcakes with a pizza recipe?)
- Trusting your pace. Even when it’s slower than you expected. Especially then.
This episode is a soft rebellion.
A love song for your enoughness.
A nudge to come home to the wisdom of your body and the truth of your desire.
