I’m sorry, I lived in LA for seven years. I’m still into manifesting. My favorite manifestation technique is saying no to things that seem good but aren’t perfect because it shows the universe you know your worth and they reward you big time, you gotta make specific checklists for this to work really well.
I went to graphic design school last year to try and switch careers from being a social media producer and I finished and I want a design job. Someone reached out to me with an opportunity for a hella lucrative social media job and it all sounded very cool…but I hated working in social media! I promised myself I’d never go back! and so I sent an e-mail saying I am only interested in pushing a creative path right now and
I’m so glad I did! I was so stressed about it before I sent it and then I just said no and moved on! Instant mood boost, your body literally knows what’s up. No clue what will happen next but I’m in it for the love of the game baby.
Firm Decisions, I got a salpingectomy today (removal of the fallopian tubes) because birth control has wreaked havoc on my body and I hate being on it and I absolutely don’t want kids. Of course all month while I was waiting for it, I couldn’t stop thinking about what if. And curiosity and like was I making the wrong decision. But I stayed firm and did it! And then I came out of anesthesia and they told me I have endometriosis! So! I would have had major fertility issues anyway. Again, your body literally knows what’s up!!!!

if you grew up being a people pleaser like me, it can be so damn hard to set boundaries. but it was so great when I finally realized I simply didn’t have to say yes to everything/everyone.
it was wild. blew my mind. I highly recommend.

i'm going thru a little bit of a time....so i'm having to be especially selective with what i say yes and no to.
i truly love my work, but i am limited in my faculties right now and have had to turn down a few gig offers. it's really difficult to say no to things, especially for me when money is involved, but it's also the most important thing to do for my health at the moment.
im also saying yes, to seeing my friends, to catching up over lunch, to a facetime hang, to making a nice meal for myself. taking lots of care and asking for support is a new muscle im learning to build up.

Everyone should have a yes era where they say yes to any and all things they want to do/find intriguing/feel drawn to regardless of what the rude little voice in their head might say.
When I was 20, in a new city for the summer and fresh out of an emotionally arduous situationship I had my first “yes” era. I said yes to everything and anything that sounded remotely interesting as long as it didn’t endanger my general health or leave me destitute. In this era I went on my first major camping trip, surfed, took a bus across the entirety of Oahu to party with a group of burning man 30 something’s I had just met, and had one of the most beautiful romantic rendezvous of my life - all because I said yes to things I would usually make excuses against doing or let fear keep me from doing them. And it was quite literally and metaphorically life changing!!
I’ve been thinking about how I need another yes era! Why should fear/anxiety win😤

I’ve replaced evening doomscrolling with pinterest and it’s like letting my brain take a nice soak in the bath.

I loved theater camp so much I came home and made my boyfriend watch it the next day. These are a few I’ve watched over the last few months that delighted me!! Not necessarily similar but I rode off the high for a while.
