You don’t have to carry this week alone.

Hello, beautiful community! 💜

Hola, mi bella comunidad. Esta semana, también podemos dejarnos acompañar.

So many of us know how to show up for others. We listen, organize, encourage, and keep going. This week, I want to offer a gentle reminder: being caring does not mean carrying everything alone.

You can be strong and still need a listening ear. You can love your people and still make room for rest. Let this week be an invitation to receive a little of the kindness you so freely give.

As we look toward our November gatherings and our Wild Woman circle in December, I’m grateful for the community we are creating—one honest conversation and one moment of connection at a time.

Your sacred pause: two minutes to welcome support

Minute one: Sit or stand comfortably. Notice the support beneath your feet or body. Let your breathing stay natural. Unclench your hands or gently move your shoulders if that feels good; stillness is welcome, too.

Minute two: Think of one small thing you do not need to do alone. Write a simple request: “Could you listen for a few minutes?” or “Could you help me with this one task?” Choose someone you trust. You can send it when you feel ready, or simply keep the note for yourself.

Receiving can begin with noticing that support is something you’re allowed to want. Adapt or skip any part of this practice.

This week’s journaling question

What is one kind of support I’m ready to ask for, instead of hoping someone will notice I need it?

Let’s connect

What would feeling supported look like for you this week? You’re welcome to reply privately or reach out about a gathering. We would love to connect.
