Hi my loves!! I am back \u2014 I had to take a little \u201912 things\u2019 hiatus because I have been so absurdly sick for the last several weeks, I felt like I couldn\u2019t even use my brain to write to you guys which was hands down the worst feeling in the world! I am back today with some life updates & more.<\/p>\n
On that note, why don\u2019t we just get straight into it?!<\/p>\n
1. Well, let\u2019s just start with where I have been! 32 weeks pregnant with pneumonia \ud83d\ude43 which has been such an absolute trip. I have experienced so many health things in my life, but few things have been quite as debilitating as the last few months. I think being pregnant on top of having a major respiratory illness that for whatever reason was *not healing at all* for the longest time was one of the hardest things. I don\u2019t wish it upon anyone! I was in and out of the hospital last week, and finally got on the right combination of things to help me heal. I am still only like 30% of the way there but I will take it, it\u2019s way better than nothing.<\/p>\n
2. As usual, I always like to look at the spiritual side of things, illnesses included. This particular situation has been a PURGE of all purges. I feel like I have been purging an old way of being, specifically before becoming a second-time mother to this beautiful baby girl coming in. So much has risen to the surface during this illness, from old patterns and memories to things that I need to change \/ am ready to change, and so much more. I will be sharing a lot about this soon (probably over on my Substack<\/a> \u2014 subscribe if you haven\u2019t!!) \u2013 I have a lot to say!<\/p>\n 3. I have fully become a MATCHA girl, especially because coffee has been giving me horrible heartburn in the third trimester of this pregnancy. I am loving the brand Nekohama for matcha, and I love mixing it with Three Trees almond milk or pistachio milk, coconut butter, colostrum, and making it a super decadent treat every morning. Over ice, always for me!<\/p>\n 4. Yes I know I hated on matcha for years. I can\u2019t even believe I am saying this. Pregnancy changes your taste buds and preferences so much. \ud83d\ude02<\/p>\n 5. Being in bed for the last few weeks has forced me to cancel\/reschedule (but mostly cancel) a LOT of things\u2026 which is always a potent reminder to me:\u00a0how\u00a0much of what we do on a daily basis is really that important or\u00a0necessary, anyway?\u00a0<\/i>NOT a lot of it, and I think we could all be living much slower lives & it would do us a world of good.<\/p>\n 6. Lots of book updates brewing on the back end\u2026 I can\u2019t wait to share and I promise I will be sharing more soon. Definitely before the baby comes, you guys will have a big book update. It has been a journey, a labor of love, and the book is changing and shifting yet again which I am excited about and cannot wait to share all about.<\/p>\n 7. From coughing so much, I have detonated my rib cage. My ribs are so bruised and in so much pain I can hardly function. I don\u2019t wish this on any pregnant mama everrrrr. Or anyone.<\/p>\n 8. The good news about being in bed for two weeks is that I have been channeling up a STORM. And reading a TON! Will do a new book roundup post asap.<\/p>\n 9. The other good news about being in bed so much has been lots and lots of cuddles with Atticus. He has been so sweet and is such an angel. I am trying not to let him see how sick I am but he is such a pure intuitive\u2026 he feels it all. He wakes up every day and says, \u201cYou OK, Mommy?\u201d \ud83e\udd79 and I keep telling him that he has a VERY healthy mama, and I will be completely well again very very soon!!<\/p>\n 10. I have a solo episode coming out on the podcast tomorrow, detailing my full psychedelic journey<\/a> throughout the years. I think you guys are going to love it. Who is subscribed \/ ready to listen?!<\/p>\n
