A-Fest

"I've been surprised, shocked, scared, feeling vulnerable, feeling very empowered, and all of that in the space of two days"

I arrived here with absolutely no prior knowledge and hence no expectations, really like a whiteboard. 
And I've been surprised, shocked, scared, feeling vulnerable, feeling very empowered, and all of that in the space of two days. So it's been very much a roller coaster. 
But if I can make one takeaway from A-fest I would say that it really managed to push my limits and I'm always very eager to push my limits. 
So A-Fest has been a learning journey but also, I think one of the most magical things you've been able to create here is this beautiful community of changemakers, of people that are willing to grow and willing to evolve and to reach their highest potential and to act as changemakers in the world. I think this is what we need the most. 

A-fest was able to touch on some of my biggest vulnerabilities and maybe even insecurities.
I've been able to connect even more with my feminine power, my femininity and with my sexual energy. I've never had such experiences before.
I definitely will leave Jordan feeling more empowered and more complete version of myself.
