Wildcare on Pause

I was recently asked to partake in an interview by a woman I absolutely love, ( more on that below ! ), in which the question prompted,

"What has been your proudest moment in your career or personal life to date?"

Here’s what I replied;

"…This is funny timing but probably just recently. My business is doing the best it’s been in 7 years, and simultaneously I recognized that I was very far from my best– consumed by debilitating exhaustion and adrenal fatigue. I pushed myself to work hard the last 7 years through birthing 2 children, both when I was 7 months pregnant, long stays at NICU, and through my rediscovery of myself as a mother and a woman. I barely paused to process, often integrating healings in the windows I allowed for myself. I very recently was diagnosed with a nervous system disorder which finally fit together 5 years of confusing puzzle pieces. I gave myself time to surrender to naming my experience and giving myself permission to pause and feel. I’m proud to be envisioning my own real vibrancy again as I stop, breathe, reassess, and reinvent myself. I’m proud to be prioritizing pleasure and taking up more space to feel the emotions that I decided were too much for others, and myself to hold. There is real power in asking to be held. Being strong does not mean being alone with our experiences. Proud of arriving at this realization and pause is an understatement."

So with a joyous & confident breath, Wildcare will be taking a break for the month of May. My goal with Wildcare has always been to serve a sense of connection, emotion and vitality through engagement with skin and self.The moment has arrived where I need to choose myself with full spaciousness, to rest & restore so I can continue creating for your own moments of restoration.

More on that interview….

I’m over the moon in sharing that I was summoned for the first of this series by Svetlana of Gressa Skin, Woman Wonder. This interview came at divine timing, carving out a space and platform for me to share my expressions on my own individual wellbeing, the women that inspire me, and what I hope to pass along to the next generation of women, just to throw out a few. It was quite refreshing for me to have this opportunity to talk about who I am as a woman, beyond my business achievements.

I would love for you to carve out some space, grab a cup of tea and tap below to read through. Feel free to reach out to me directly or comment at the bottom of the interview if you would like to share your thoughts and reflections. THANK YOU!
