A Woman Who Moves

So the other day, I’m on my walking pad, annoyed as all hell that I’ve recently committed to being a Woman Who Moves. It’s been 10 minutes since I’ve stepped onto this mini treadmill that now lives in the entryway of our 1,100 sq. ft. Annapolis apartment…and I am over it.  

So, I take to my Instagram stories to (throw a fit) be in process with my thoughts and feelings on starting new things, identity work, and the astrology of it all. 

“I’m reporting live from my stupid walking pad, where I’m doing a stupid fucking walk for my stupid mental health. And I’m feeling very *grrrr* about it. But I made a commitment to myself, that I am now a Woman Who Moves. Fuck me. Why do I do this? Why do I commit to things that I know are good for me?”

I go on to give some context: there was a big, juicy full moon in Cancer that day (Monday, January 13, 2025). Cancer is the crab. She’s sensitive, she’s loving, she is not to be trifled with. You get on her bad side? The claws come out and you have immediate regret.

Astrology 101

Depending on your rising sign—the sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the time you were born—your birth chart starts in a different zodiac sign. This has to do with the houses in astrology (more on that in another blog post). 

I’m a Leo rising, which means Leo occupies my 1st house. This makes Cancer—the sign of this week’s full moon—my 12th house. Knowing your rising sign and the different houses in your birth chart helps you understand how current astrology impacts you personally. 

Each house has to do with a different area of your life. The 12th house is about sorrow, loss, shadow work, inner spiritual retreats, and ‘creative incubators’ (as described by Chani Nicholas). 

Full Moons are already a time of heightened activation. Emotions run high! This big light in the sky (looking at you, Mama Moon) is shining a spotlight on things in our life and in our psyche that need to be witnessed and made aware of so we can do something with them. So we can work with it, clear it, tweak it, release it. 

This is a good thing! Astrology is always moving us towards higher consciousness, evolution, and personal and collective growth, even if the path there is squiggly and non-linear.

But ohmygod I feel f*cking victimized by this astrology right now??? Because oh by the way, Mars—the big, hot, red planet of fire and drive and motivation—is currently retrograde, also in the sign of Cancer. Another messy activation in my sensitive and tender 12th house. Fucking my life up! 

The Choice Point

I felt BRATTY. It was giving don’t fucking talk to me right now, I don’t want to deal with you, eye rollllllll foreverrrrrrr. 

But you see… in those moments where we just don’t feel like it and can’t be bothered to care, we fall back on our habits, routines, and rituals. The things we’ve committed to that we already have in place. The structures, communities, and containers that hold us—in sickness and in health, whether we’re inspired or not, even when we’re simply not feeling it. 

For me, one of those containers is the Psychic Content Coworking Club. 

I’m still walking and yapping on my stories: 

“We have energy healing today in the Coworking Club this afternoon and THANK GOD FOR IT. Because I will show up and hold that space and we’ll clear our energy fields and we will ground in together as a team, in this community that I’ve built that I adore. And I will feel significantly better because of it! And then later today, we’ll have our Full Moon Group Coaching Call. And again, I will speak light into these people and tell them how worthy they are of their own forgiveness. And in doing that, I will speak light into myself.

Because these are the structures that I’ve built that help me, and because doing my work in the world matters, and being of service ALWAYS makes me feel better.”

I’ve been in business for 4+ years. And there was a time when feeling bad would stop me (or MASSIVELY delay me) from delivering on my commitments to my clients. Now, I dig from a deeper part of myself. This looks like discipline on the surface (and it is, at its core). But really it’s devotion. And discipleship towards myself, my commitments, my clients, and my body of work. 

Emotional maturity is knowing how to hold both: brattiness, frustration, I-don’t-fckn-feel-like-it… AND ALSO the commitment to showing up and holding incredible space, giving people a beautiful experience, and making others feel empowered by the words that I share and the energy that I bring. Because both can be true. 

We are capable of holding SO many different things at once—different moods, different feelings, different energies. The power is in choosing which energy you want to lead with. 

When I show up to community calls, the bullshit is at the door. When I ground in and call in my guides, the bullshit is at the door! It’s gone. And that doesn’t mean I’m bypassing my own experience, but it means I’ve got work to do! And I’m going to do it with integrity. 

And in order to do it with integrity, I personally don’t want to bring that “wah wah I don’t feel like it it’s so hard” vibe with me while I lead a space. 

My offerings to you:

If you want to be in a community where these kinds of conversations are normal and encouraged, join the Psychic Content Coworking Club. 

And if you want a coach who will hold you to a higher standard of self-honoring (not bypassing/steamrolling your emotions), deeper self-understanding, emotional maturity, and integrity, hire me. 

Hire me to help you get your shit in order, while still being bratty, dramatic, intuitive, sensitive, loving, playful, silly… all the beautiful things that you are. They all get to be, and they all belong in your business. If you want someone to help you make sense of yourself (you already make so much sense and you don’t need me to tell you so for it to be true), and help you love yourself more and get what you want… hire me. 

And that’s on being a Woman Who Moves.
