"Never before have I been so surrounded by such extraordinary courage, openness, vulnerability and willingness to stretch beyond"

Gosh.
It has taken some time to absorb, digest and settle my energy from some of the myriad experiences from those magical 4 days together.
Never before have I been so surrounded by such extraordinary courage, openness, vulnerability and willingness to stretch beyond the known and into the magic. I felt seen, I felt held, I felt safe and I felt loved. With all of this I felt encouraged to share even more of myself with you all, and the connections I have made as a result of this are nothing short of beautiful. [...]
I have found a family, and I have re-discovered a love that I had felt was lost.[...] I am changed. With a special love for those whose energies danced together with mine, then, now and always.
With the deepest love, from the cavernous space that my heart is. We have great work to do in the world, and I am so happy and grateful to have found you to ride along with. Thank you, thank you.
