Be the Change...

A dear teacher once told Me to "be the change I want to see". In other words, to stop dreaming about how the world should or could be better, and to start engaging within it as though it already looks that way.

For Me, that means not sitting around being depressed because people are so negative about sexuality, but actually taking time to discover for Myself and then embody what a sexually healthy person might look like. I seek to be a role model for conscious sexual development, in order to help people discover their own unique and individual sexual truths.

There is so much misinformation that we get daily from the outside about how we should be, feel, do, or experience sex - and virtually no encouragement to look inside ourselves and the wisdom of our lived experience for the answers. And sexuality is a vital and essential part of what makes us human!

I encourage all of you to take some time to reflect on how authentically you are giving expression to your sexual truths, whatever those might be. Have the courage to take a measure of how much space you allow them, and then be brave enough to give them a bit more breathing room.
They are embodiments of your most essential self, and that self deserves to live.
