Beauty and “the beast.” 2020 versus my first Kambo session in 2016. This stuff is pretty crazy, what it temporarily and permanently does to your body...but it’s benefits are worth it. Luckily your face seems to turn into a frog just the first time. It saved me from a case of the Dengue Flu a few years ago and now it’s saving me from myself.
🐸
To add to the controversy is that it comes from the secretion of a frog, which are not killed, but it’s ultimately up to your faith in your practitioner and your opinions of an animals psyche on if this is something for you. Besides the fact of what it does to your self...

If you chef a dinner...and you have to sign an NDA - did it really happen?

Does the tree falling in the forest make a sound?

Who knows? Here’s to more dancing around boundaries in 2020 💃🏽 😂

Can’t speak for anyone else...but when you...
➕grow up on the Southside of Chicago
➕attend Catholic school
➕got a granny who plays gospel 24/7
➕bump Tupac in your tapedeck
➕and play a classical instrument

You understand stuff like this is simply apart of your childhood culture.

Then you get grown + make it your own by...
➕meditating before the show
➕wearing a psychedelic mushroom print dress ➕bringing a quartz crystal

Nah uhhhh, you can’t tell me nothing
🔮
Congrats to Kanye, @vbuntitled, @johnshermannn, @accessopera + team for another cool creation.

I just wanna apologize to my rapidly disappearing booty...and everyone I told I’d ever only run for a ✈️
🤷🏽‍♀️
But alas, I’ve ran 10 miles in the last 10 days...so I guess I’ve entered the cult - and I’m cool with it.
🏃🏽‍♀️
Running is the one goal I can truly control...which does something to a part of my self-confidence that I didn’t know I even needed help with. Now time for some squats 😆

I think this is the year I started my first food business. Hustling Rice Krispie Treats. It was all about filling a need: my sugar rush, kids not being able to buy them in the store and most importantly making my own “little money” which took pressure off my parents.

Although these days I want nothing to do with a Rice Krispie Treat, I’m super thankful for the lessons it taught me early on.

It’s Real Talk Tuesday “or whatever” - my weekly IG story bomb of thoughtful things. Although memes are basically a quick read into someone’s psyche, the point of them is for the reader to be able to resonate with it personally.

So thanks to anyone who resonates with them - especially my friends in real life. I’m a pretty private person so this is as close to bearing my soul on the Internet I could probably get LOL.

“I trip but I don’t fall.”
Metaphor for life.

My experience in wellness is way deeper than my experience in the wellness “business” so it was a pleasure speaking on what is most important to me: keeping it together.

Although my life is far from perfect 😩 I go to great lengths to prevent anything worse! Fasting, meditation and not using my phone upon waking are some of the things that have helped me over the years... and the food of course 🙂 Thanks to @lifeisheavenonearth and the @glaaacc for allowing me to share my story.

#PROTIP cook your mushrooms. Yes raw shrooms contain a small amount of toxins but more importantly cooking then down makes the nutrients more bio available.
🍄
Since shrooms are naturally umamai, it doesn’t take much to make them tasty. Simply sautee in oil or water with minced garlic, salt and pepper.

Pictured are #shiitake, lactarius indigo and lactarius deliciosus.
