EP 108 | TAKING OFF THE MASK

If you’ve been around these parts for a minute, you know that I am all about authenticity. Being yourself AF. This is the work I am called to do most in the world. Creating home in your most fully sovereign, empowered, embodied self so that you can do magic in the world.

Supporting your journey with plant medicines as sacred guides toward standing in your full expansive truth. And doing it so hard that everything that is not that burns away because it cannot survive in the fullness of the light of your heart.

HUZZAH! POW! SUNSHINE AND RAINBOWS!

That kind of authenticity. The realness. The ease of confidence. The Big You that is screaming to be seen, heard, known, loved, trusted, and freed.

Authenticity is an invitation to take off the mask you wear. The one you wear to hide. To protect yourself. To fit in. To please people. The one you learned to wear so that you could feel acceptance and love instead of feeling like an ostracized lone wolf on the outside looking in.

The masks we wear are identities that we try on because it feels safer than being true to yourself. Because when you showed yourself fully in the past, when you opened your heart, you got hurt. You felt ashamed. You were told to be quiet. Less weird. Less hysterical. Less loud. Less flamboyant. Less sad. Less wild. Less unique. Less scandalous. Less radical. Less questioning.

Be less. Be smaller. Be how you’re told to be. Be acceptable. Conform. Fit in.

Generations of writers, healers, medicine people, singers, artists, creators, inventors, witches, pagans, herbalists, radicals, psychics, seers, energy holders, channelers, and weirdos have been told for centuries to reign it in, tone it down, button it up, and keep it boring.

And WE ARE DONE.

We don’t want to fit in. We want belonging. And the only way to belong is to be YOU so that you can find the others. So we can all belong on purpose. Because we are all related.

We are done with the masks. We are done with pretending to be white bread, milquetoast, mediocre, grayscale, asleep people. We refuse to accept and conform to such limited belief systems. Such mundane, rule filled civilizations based on extraction and competition and consumption. Such boring and sad standards of beauty. The crushing despair of conformity and sameness. We refuse mediocrity.

So how do you help yourself feel safe to take off the mask and let your freak flag fly in a world that has punished you for being you?

What can plant medicine show you about how to be truly authentic? Not just in the way your ego expresses, but by being a hollow bone open to being filled by Spirit…

Are you willing to let go of your expectations? Your identities? Your attachments? What are you willing to offer to Source to be truly free?

In this week’s episode, we’re going to explore the spectrum of authenticity, how to unmask yourself, and what it means to go on the integrative ride of your life. Learn how you can change the world by being your fullest, most connected self, all with plant medicine as your loving guide.
