I D E N T I T Y 🌀 who am I becoming, one year postpartum & first year of my 40’s?

I “turned” 39 last Aug which I now have reorientated to birthdays being completions

I completed 39 years & am currently on year 40 which I’ll complete next birthday!

There is a persistent tug beneath the surface of being a SAHM to my baby, almost toddler

To each his own but I personally have not found complete contentment in my sole “job” being caring for my children
AND
I don’t want to put my kids in daycare before age 4 soooo either me or their dad must care for them

With Aurelia, I (reluctantly) returned to a full time corporate/government mental health job when she was 18 mo old. Her dad watched her while I was at work, then he worked in the evenings & weekends while I was with her

That lasted a year then 2020 happened & society shut down so I was back at home (relaunched my business!) with my 2.5 year old until she started PreK

Aurelia started attending PreK 2 mo shy of turning 5 & that was her 1st time in any formal childcare program

With Tauren, I constantly wonder: how will I weave mothering together with my career?

The questions get louder & louder: HOW?? How will I create a business I love doing my soul work in the world & be paid abundantly for it?

How will I use my innate soul’s & body’s gifts to CREATE?

How will I reach others who resonate with & could benefit from my work in this crazy popularity contest appeasing the algor¥thm’s newest trend??

I’ve “failed” twice already launching my business… what will be different this time?

I guess this time I just can’t quit… because quitting & returning to a j.o.b. in corporate/government child’s mental & behavioral health is stressful & demanding AF not to mention S O U L - S U C K I N G 😮‍💨

I’m using this winter to listen inward about what direction my “work in the world” wants to go

To listen deeply to Mama Gaia, to help unfurl my eco-identity… what does the Earth want to create thru my animal body?

To listen widely to my soul blueprint: what does my soul desire to experience… incarnating in this lineage, this body, this time on Earth?

I hope by spring some answers have revealed themselves 🌱

Tauren Sky Davis arrived fast & furious at 12:50am on Dec 24th in a homebirth with just me Stephen Davis & our midwife. 7 lbs & 22 inches. Mama & baby are doing great. Birth story to come. Feeling so incredibly blessed & supported by all our family & friends 🥰🙏🤱

Hello 3rd trimester 🤰🏼right in time for autumn 🍁☺️ I am in love with how this pregnancy has mirrored the seasons 🌱🌷🍁❄️

I conceived in late March, so just as the Earth was coming alive again & sprouts were boldly bursting forth, I too, had a teeny seed taking hold

Thru spring & summer, we grew & grew. Summer peaked & baby continued to ripen as I continued to expand, not just physically but mentally, emotionally & spiritually too

The summer was full of beauty:
- of new plants continually blooming in the yard (I have my Ta**us baby daddy’s green thumb to thank for that lol)
- of visits to the ocean & lake
- seeing extended family & sharing with them the news of a baby on the way
- lots of yummy home cooked meals
- becoming even more connected & stronger as a couple

Now as summer winds down & the Earth energies turn inward, she lets go of the blooms & leaves. Death will become a gorgeous display of yellow, orange, gold, red then brown

There is SO much beauty in the Appalachian mountains this time of year. It’s truly awe-provoking & every year I give so much gratitude that I am blessed to witness the Earth’s magnificence as she lets go & trusts once again

Soon to come will be the harvest, the preparation for colder, darker days. The nesting in, the cozy fabrics & rich smells of autumn, the hearty soups & staying warm in the home

As the autumn equinox occurs tomorrow, I whole- heartedly welcome the new season, the turning of the wheel, the next phase of the spiral, the deepening into release and acceptance & grace of death

I will be changed come the winter solstice (baby’s guess date). No longer a single mom, to a single child. I’m not sure who or what I’ll become but I welcome the transformation & deeply Trust my soul’s path 🌀🕸️❤️‍🔥

From my heart to yours 💞
Did you know I offer 1 partial scholarship spot per quarter for my 1:1 container?!

So many of us need healing right now and so many are feeling the pull from their Higher Self/Soul to emerge & embody more fully!

My career began in the counseling field (I have a BA in Psych & a MA in Counseling) thus my roots are in social work, not entrepreneurship

The mental health field has tragically low pay & high demands so there’s definitely need for reform there

However, the coaching industry has IMMENSE shadow in its “6-7 fig boss babe” mentality & ONLY serving clients with deep pockets

So I try to find the middle ground. This is one way I “pay it forward” because I received scholarships to attain my undergraduate degree

If you’d like to be considered for the scholarship spot please DM me!

It’s a simple questionnaire & I’ll select the most aligned match by the end of this week

This container includes 6x 60 min sessions with What’s App support in-between sessions for only $88 a session {normally $152 a session}

It’s the exact same methodology I use with my 1:1 clients of: Align, Heal, Design, Embody (check out shanellakelly.com/services for more info)

If you’ve wanted to work with a soul-led holistic therapist & coach but have some financial barriers right now, this opportunity is perfect for you!

I look forward to connecting!

The paradox of wanting to share but having SO MUCH to say that I don’t know where to start,
The tension of my Leo desire to express & shine and my Scorpio desire to remain private & mysterious,
To not try to explain or summarize or put my magical experiences to words.
But I just LOVE stories & I am so enthralled with my own life’s story in this season of transformation that I yearn to share with others
So what is most present in my heart & soul? The ever-unfolding & reconfiguration of my Self while the ego death of so many “but it wasn’t supposed to be this way?!”s😩
Releasing my preferences & shoulds to make space to be wholly led by my soul
Trusting the twists & turns…
Like my business never quite getting off the ground & “having” to go back to work in the corporate mental health world but actually getting paid well this time but barely enjoying it
Feeling a soul bond connection & full body remembrance with someone whom my ego deemed as “not on my level” in so many ways, nor who seemed ready for the kind of relationship & Union a soul like me would offer but nonetheless I stayed open to my soul’s guidance & Trusted the dramatic & emotional unfolding of events
And he came through after all, even though he was terrified to make the HUGE leap into an entirely different life & timeline
Then the just KNOWING (and visions & dreams) I would have a child with this person which I was pregnant within 3 months of our reunion
Now I’m anticipating welcoming a new child into my soul family & lineage and that’s bringing up SO MUCH as well
My own mother died when I was 6 (almost Aurelia’s age) and this past year I’ve realized just how much my mother & I have in common & how I continue her legacy & the kind of woman she wanted to be & the life she wanted to create
It’s wild. And tragic. And beautiful. And all intertwined.
So once again, my primary role will be MOTHER as I nourish & sustain new life (and take time away from “work” to do so)
But that role, that calling is deepening & expanding as I evolve. With my natal Venus in Cancer, the mother archetype is strong in me, but so are many other archetypes
How will I possibly have room for them all?!

This statement deserves a permanent place on my feed

I stand & speak out for:
•freedom to CHOOSE
•body sovereignty (which includes)
•womb sovereignty

In response to this attack from our patriarchal government I am doubling down on education, specifically FAM (Fertility Awareness Method) which helps you learn your own body & when you are fertile each month based on ovulation

By tracking your waking body temperature, cervical liquid & cervical position you can know when you ovulate (which can & often does change every month; not the “14 days after your 1st day of bleeding” thing most of us have been taught)

Once an egg is released, fertilization can only occur within 24 hrs & because s***m can only survive in the va**na 6 days, a woman only has about a 6 day window per month that s€x can result in a pregnancy!

Knowledge is POWER

Learn your body
Learn your fertility
Learn how it all works
I recommend “Taking Charge of Your Fertility” by Toni Weschler as a comprehensive guide

I also learn here from:
.co



About womb health, healing, sovereignty, etc

The government can change all the laws they want but ultimately we CAN & WILL find other ways to do what females have done for millennia

We can take back OUR power over our bodies. Theres a feminine rising activating all over the world & the oppressors in control know it so they’re throwing everything they can at it.

But the momentum has already begun & this will only fuel our resolve

The Earth, the Body, the Feminine is re-balancing. We shall continue to dissent from this matricidal overculture. We shall remember the ancient ways. It is our destiny. It’s why we’re right here, right now.

As Joan of Arc said: “I am not afraid. I was born to do this.” Carry on heart warriors 🫀💪🏼🌀

I’ve been in liminal space, time outside time… for most of 2022 if I’m honest

Realized I haven’t shared anything on socials in 6 weeks but I suppose due to the moon in Leo & on day 16 of my cycle, I have enough outward energy to share today

My consciousness has been transforming. As my ego-mind freaks out over the external stories of failure & loss/lack..

my witness self is reminding me to zoom out, look from a different angle, go deeper, track the bigger mythos I’m currently traveling

It’s been PROFOUND

Nighttime dreams, signs, synchronicities, music, ceremony, journeying, visioning, tracking my past via journal entries, wild nature encounters have all been beckoning me further

“Things are not as they seem, what else could be unfolding here?” my soul seems to sing to me

I felt a bit mad/crazy until a dear friend recommended Bill Plotkin’s book “The Journey of Soul Initiation” & suddenly put words to my EXACT experience

One of the further dissolution of my socio-cultural-ego identity (which I’ve been dissolving for EIGHT years now!!) & the strengthening & emergence of my eco-Soul identity which has been forming along side the dissolution

Big lifetimes-long inquiry…
who am I? Why did I come here? What is my purpose? What did I desire to experience & explore? What really matters? What is real & what is illusion? How much power do I truly have to co-create reality? Should I keep trying to change the world or just try my best to enjoy the world? Or some bit of both?

Why do I feel so different? How can I be so often contradictory & paradoxical? Am I all? Or nothing? Special or insignificant?

And on & on

While these transition times can be disorienting, I Know I’m on the right path. I Know I’m meant to awaken more & more. To remember more & more.

And to LIVE MY SOUL’S TRUTH

The journey is a moment to moment one of figuring that out ☝🏼what is my SOUL’s Truth?!

Thanks for listening y’all! If you’re on a similar journey, would love to hear about it! My DM’s are open 💌
