My desire this week is to stay present with client work while balancing out time for my own projects and desires. I also have a bunch of tasks that have been rolling over for a while now, though most of them shouldn't take very long, so I want to knock out a bunch of them as well.

Tasks:

Build and publish basic website landing page
Clean up email
Respond to people
Cancel Fed EIN from past biz in Oregon
Buy new gym shoes

I've had the intention to post my weekly intentions for a while now, but this is the first time I'm actually doing it in a few months. In that time, my inner experience of work and structure and goals has completely changed. So much more fluidity and trust and peace, so much less discipline and structure and fear. Just taking the steps that show up in front of me, doing what feels good, processing deeper emotions as they arise, and trusting everything else to work itself out.

So my ongoing intention is to simply practice staying present throughout the day to hear the intuition’s subtle cues and flow as best I can with what my inner voice says while also processing resistance, emotions, judgment, etc as they arise.

In terms of tasks for the week, I have some client work, responding to various people, and building my website landing page.

How It Went: Definitely getting better at staying present with new ideas/pings as they come in. Also with the little things of life throughout the day: food, rest, going to bed at night, etc. I also had a play experimental healing session with a friend that was super helpful to them — deeply impactful — and felt so good to me. It was doing what I'm calling "Wholeness Sessions" and it really feels like I'm coming into my own in many ways around this piece of what I'm offering. I feel this confidence in myself and also all the threads of various modalities I've touched over the years weaving themselves together. Very cool to be opening into it.

Intentions for the week:

1. Create and respect structure.

2. Build in accountability so the respect part happens.

I thought time was the missing factor in my biz, but after two weeks off and very little accomplished during that time, I see I missed something. Back to the drawing board.

@Susan Tutt I definitely relate to your experience of open time. When I read your post it reminded me of this article of George's. It's the very first thing I ever found of his and it struck me deeply for where I was at that time—coming off a few months of open time with very little actually getting done. Sharing here in case it's helpful to you too. https://www.georgekao.com/b...

Super busy long weekend - the BIG bookshelf moved and now I'm putting my study back together. I lost 1.5 units so some things need to go elsewhere or to go permanently 🤣.

My intentions for the week are:

Video backdrop redo - continue putting things up (and elsewhere) after the BIG bookcase move. This will be the primary focus as we've got company coming over next week 🤣
Continue checklist work - trial them / update on the fly / watch relevant Joyful Productivity videos
Execute my content creation hat manual / filing system and update as needed

On the yearly intention - I'm giving myself permission to let the study count for this one too!

@Heather Lakatos Oh funnn! I can't wait to see your new backdrop and how it continues to evolve as it settles in the coming weeks :)

Digital Decluttering (or any decluttering) - June Dates

As schedules get wonky with vacations, kids out of school, family things, etc, I find a lot of comfort in regularly scheduled, low-stakes gatherings. They keep me grounded.

I've also been feeling the call to declutter more things than just the digital world, so come clean out your computer files and those old storage bins—anything goes!

Find the dates and the zoom link below, and, as always, come when you can, stay as long as feels good, leave early, arrive late, bring breakfast, make tea, …

Hi friends, this is just a quick reminder (tagging some of you who have attended in the past), that we have a digital decluttering hangout tomorrow at 9am PT (Sunday). I'd love to see you if you're interested, and if not, maybe I'll catch you at the next one. Come hang out for some easy Sunday decluttering and communal support. 💜
