inconvenient needs
from Finding What's True Hosted by Sarah Davis
I tried to set down my "practice" this week friends; my writing, reading, drawing, making practice. It was all in the interest of what was going to be convenient while facing a solo parenting week. I sensibly decided I would sleep in and not even try to do any of my work. I thought I could just step out of the practice (it would be temporary after all) for a minute and imagined myself wearing my one mom hat walking through the week all easy breazey; ya know, to make it easier on me. Needless to say it did not go so well. On today's episode I'm asking the question how do we find a way to integrate our needs, our practice, our work, our time to connect with that higher version of ourselves when it's not even a little bit convenient? Especially when we know through lived experience that showing up for these needs is a non-negotiable. How do we take several non-negotiables (creativity and mindful parenting) and weave them together in a way that allows us to still hold onto ease and joy. I think it's different for everyone, perhaps a bit of a moving target, and is very much at the heart of what we need to answer to find a life that's true and uniquely ours.
