Do you feel seen even when you are silent?
Today I want to introduce you to Renata, an absolute gem and life filled soul, one that is gentle and kind, one that sees and responds with a heart of confidence and love to those around her, and one that I can laugh with and learn from always
Renata is so many things as we might conventionally define her, a designer, a dj, a diver, a yoga instructor, model, and so so much more, but perhaps it is in the ever explored roads she goes down that define her most, as one that is pursing life, in all its joys, all its excitement and intrigue, and doing so with a fluid acceptance of herself
She shares about the value of being real, in being yourself, no matter what that may be, but to be reminded that who you are is how others should know you, and it’s up to us to show and be who we are. She shares the peace and joy she finds in being in the water and creating art and getting to express herself in movement
We chat about how childhood trauma impacts us far beyond what many of us have been told, how emotional intelligence should be taught in school and how it would create a better world for all of us, and how emotions are both beautiful and at times hold our deepest heartache
Renata is someone that I will name when I’m asked why humanity is worth trusting, worth knowing, worth being known by, and worth sharing the love we have been given. She is one I admire, one who lives and loves from a place that is true to who she is, one that laughs and loves with intention
So tune in today and meet Renata, one that I believe can teach us all what it is to choose yourself in a healthy way
And to you Renata thank you, thank you for being the sweetest, full of life, laughter, and gentle loving friend. You really are a treasure and I am so so grateful for the memories and the ones yet to be made, love you
