Needing to get something off my chest…Truth is…I’ve been burnt out for months. Not approaching burnout, not experiencing minor adrenal fatigue, not on the cusp of anything… fully IN IT. Luckily I’m on my way out, finally.
Been continuing to build a business, and trying to expand fully into a new space… while our government lies to us, among other diabolical atrocities that I won’t get into here. I’m sure (and hope) you’re aware.
Anyways. Trying to continue to expand but feeling like I’m not ready, not allowed, not supported, not connected, not empowered to do any of it. Even though all of that is not true. Been mending old wounds of betrayal & releasing fear that isn’t mine.
I haven’t been responding to emails, inquiries or making deadlines. I cringe when I get asked to show up at networking events, or to donate my time for fundraisers. But no one would ever know because I’ve perfected the “table side manner” thing working at every restaurant I’ve ever worked at since I was 16.
Somewhere while I was building this business from the foundation. Of pop ups and farmers markets and events all over the Vail Valley, to a full blown apothecary, I lost myself. And I’m trying to find the new version of me that is ready to bloom.
I had to become the business, “You’re the Belden Witch!” Yes, I am. But I’m at my core, I’m Jocelyn.
I haven’t been posting here about the shop or events or any of it, because I feel very dystopian posting about what’s new in store while the world burns and people’s rights are still being stripped away to say the very least.
I’ve been doing DEEP magic. While holding space for everyone else at the same time. And as a Reflector in Human Design, I honestly don’t even know what deep magic is mine anymore. We are all doing BIG WORK. And I seem to feel every ounce of it, whether it’s mine or not.
If you don’t see us on social media, don’t be surprised. We’re just here trying to be human, trying to hold it all best we can, trying to rest, to live, to love, to grow, to expand, and we don’t feel anything lightly.
We’re out here. We’re just not on HERE. Love you all.
