Caption : Imagine the people who have loved you. The ones who have held you and allowed you to hold them. The ones who have taken you to account yet believed in your ability to change. Now imagine the ones who have loved them. And the ones who loved them too. We each exist in a constellation of love. For our species, it’s love that makes life possible.Likes : 10750

Caption : There’s a frenzy that happens in these moments. The pit, the churning in my own stomach is panic, realizing that somehow I carried on each day underestimating the determination and depravity we face, the cruelty. All I can say now is feel it. When you can and with others, face the fear of this unknown, this timeline unfolding. Shake and despair. And when you can, remember that we each and together are powerful, our commitment makes us more so. Our strategy is the path. Our action, our love. It’s not your panic that unnerves those opposed to freedom, but your dedication to what is bigger and more true than their fear.Likes : 9919

Caption : Seeing the cover of this, my first book, What It Takes To Heal, for the first time left me without the ‘right’ words to describe how I felt. For so long it was a little secret, this thing I created in quiet rooms and corners of spaces that felt safe enough to unlock stories that until recently I hadn’t wanted to revisit. In preparing to share this work, I’ve struggled to articulate my feelings. wondered ‘Is it good enough?’ ‘Is it what people need at this moment?’ Starting out I said that I wanted people to use the book as a resource as they identify their ‘healing home.’ But what I didn’t expect is that writing this book would help me move deeper into mine. There’s something spiritual, revelatory, and terrifying about feeling, especially when those feelings are tethered to dreams that have become reality. I have always wanted to write a book. As a therapist and movement worker, books aid me in helping people unlock their emotions and access the types of healing that are necessary for them. I beat back my own fear and endeavored to write this book because I believe nothing is more courageous than feeling. We’ve collectively lost so much and have experienced tremendous grief these past few years. But we’ve also dug deep, built new things, and transformed old things. We’ve found joy, strength, and curiosity during these, some of our hardest days. And it is my deepest hope that this book can be an accompaniment to those who are doing the work of shifting their internal conditions and the conditions of their communities to move closer to the healing, freedom, and safety we all deserve. What It Takes To Heal is now available for pre-order, and will be out officially on June 4, 2024. Thank you to my family and everyone who has supported me on this journey, including my agent, editors at @penguinrandomhouse, and my staff. I’m beyond grateful to my team at @TheEmbodimentInstitute. And to my comrades, to everyone who is and has been a part of removing the stigma from feeling–making it something that is to be honored and not avoided— I say thank you. I can’t wait to experience this next season of my work with you all.Likes : 9072

Caption : Before my gender there was a perspective. A looking between and around. I made a pre verbal pact with myself to feel life as it comes not as it was dictated to me. And to never be afraid to change. This is what my transness is to me. Some might think that with all that is going on, all the anti-trans attacks that what is happening is about a small minority of people. It’s not. It’s about each of us. And whether or not we can envision relations that welcome us to really meet each other as we are. Or if we intend to continue with these performances and projections that police and endanger difference. There is an expression that is uniquely, beautifully you. I hope you allow it. I hope we celebrate and protect the ones who insist on being free. I hope we know how powerful and beautiful we really are. #transdayofvisibility #tdovLikes : 7855

Caption : Um so guess what? @brenebrown has a new amazing series on @hbomax for Atlas of the Heart and…Im in it y’all (😬). I’m talking embodiment, feelings, boundaries. Honored, excited, geeked to be a part of this project. And grateful to share how embodiment makes it more possible to be who we actually are, living the values that really matter to us. Check out the series, you gonna learn something and support your boy! #atlasoftheheart #brenebrown #embodimentLikes : 6789

Caption : Trauma is a relational injury. Which explains why, after, we might try to make home in isolation. Why we may be lonely, but hold our tongues. Or why we might seek interactions that only reinforce our positions, and therefore, protect ourselves from knowing each other and being known. Intimacy is connection at the point of vulnerability. It is the revelation.Likes : 6778

Caption : My holiday message. Emotionally rescue fewer people. Cross fewer boundaries trying to explain your own. Betray yourself less than last year. Let people feel disappointment, frustration, etc. Letting emotions happen without seeking control or stasis too quickly allows us to meet each other in the uncomfortable real. Happy holidays from your very awkward friend!Likes : 6702

Caption : Quite honestly, this year has been a beast in every way. And I’m starting to learn the lessons of it enough to say thank you. I’m starting to let go enough to let spirit take over. I’m learning again that boundaries are love because loss and shame will try to convince you love is compliance or silence. I’m still learning that forgiveness and accountability are not a package. They support the other but do not depend on each other the way we think they do. I’m learning to bring everything into the light of love, myself and others. We’re all worthy. And I’m grateful to my people who teach me this. I’m grateful from the depths of it all. Thank you for helping me feel every drop of this heartbreaking, breathtaking, almost unbearable life.Likes : 5780

Caption : Bringing this one back for today. This is a photo about distancing, about memory, about home. About child and father. It’s about that feeling you have when no apologies have been spoken, when you learned how to forgive on your own, when ego and trauma weigh heavy, when you’re always leaving and always tethered. This is a picture of as good as it gets.Likes : 5637

Caption : In What it Takes to Heal I write about taking myself on hot tub cry dates. Yesterday on a book tour break I revisited Piedmont Springs and the water that helped me relearn how to cry. I really used to boohoo in this tub y’all, but yesterday was just tears of gratitude. The Bay Area is so full of homecomings and reunions for me. And I have so much love for how this place shaped me, taught me and brought me back to myself again.Likes : 5324

Caption : Without shade, I can’t get up in arms anymore about much. I try to receive the lesson in the core and keep pushing. Debating absolute guilt or innocence is for the system. Growing, learning, accountability is for the people. But I will say what I’ve learned most clearly in this is that most of us do not know protection. Have never felt it, long for it. Some of us don’t know how to do it well for others. I am learning to allow/demand/receive protection late in life. And I’m teaching my child early.Likes : 5033

Caption : When I was a kid I played double dutch at recess and after school. I remember that feeling of watching the ropes until a blur became two and two became rhythm and my body wanted to jump into the gap. I think about that sideline hesitation a lot, studying, how necessary it was to enter the collective altered state that is double dutch. How you measured the skill and beat of the ropes before you got in. Were they going to take me where I wanted to go, the place of no-thought or would I just be running the whole time? I think about it sometimes when I’m unsure how to enter this game of social media, how to jump into the fray. I know the pull will get me eventually. I’ll start thinking in characters again, I’ll figure out what is worthwhile to share, but I’m feeling so delightfully quiet and spacious now. Focused too, but not forced. Intimate. Watching my kid discover their body, seeing their recognition that I’m inside of my body too. It’s exquisite and more than I can seem to convey here. It is also exhausting to try to be interesting. I think the point is to find your pace. Your life is miraculous even if a lot of people don’t see it or like it. No one really knows what they’re doing and a lot of the fun parts and all of the shameful ones you’ll never see. You exist even if you don’t feel like posting or promoting or even looking. You can close your eyes altogether or just rest them and let yourself be really seen for a change. Anyway, I’m looking for a beat this year that is mine. Moving in the gaps.Likes : 4826

Caption : As comfortable as I am in my skin most days I still get that sinking feeling that I don’t fit. I don’t fit any of our known stories on gender. I know none of us really do. But from where I sit, I see the way we project onto each other because we’re afraid of and not really practiced at looking closely. I watch people make me a woman or a man, a sister when they need it, a father too. I watch myself give people what they ask for sometimes just to be seen. Because much of my life I watch people look right through me as though I were invisible because they can’t fathom who I could be. This is a failure of our imagination, to not meet people openly. Maybe in doing so it risks what we are most afraid of, that we might be seen. My discomfort is not in my own being. I’m comfortable here. Soft and sturdy, serious and loving, silly. I know my existence is a reminder for all of us to live presently, to meet each other in the now of it all. And I hope the ones that follow feel less of the weight, are left with fewer questions, that they know without any doubt that they’re real.Likes : 4425

We’re here now here at the 76th anniversary and witnessing more devastation that I would have thought possible. Many thousands fleeing, many, many thousands dead. Colonization is a terror that tries to leave you with nothing, tries to put you in the past. We have to reject it always.Likes : 3777
