From The Heart of Tara

Happy Fall-ing into Fun! 🍂🍁

If you know me, you know I love to celebrate though did you know my brain likes to utilize too? I do! In this day & age, being resourceful is so useful.

When studying Native American ways, that beautiful concept of honoring the earth by using every single part of a harvest seemed to be a core part of their thought process, too. So, when I saw a boutique coffee shop serving a pumpkin spice latte directly IN a real pumpkin, my creative side wanted to try it, & my resourcefulness took over!

Excited to look for one at a healthy grocery store, I bought a perfect little sugar/pie pumpkin (you can get organic ones), spooned it out, & made a fresh, cozy latte right inside the shell. (Or you could do pumpkin tea 🫖✨🤔😯) Little interesting to drink from yet fun!

If you are wondering how I am going to pump-kin up the efficiency on this, let's just say I have a gourd-geous plan & if you do decide to too please research!🍂

For Snack attacks ;): Cleaned, salted, and crisped up the fresh pumpkin seeds.

The Lunch: The pumpkin covered & chilling in the fridge, rinsed and ready to act as a festive bowl for salad or a pasta salad! 🥗🧡

🧅Autumn aesthetic dinner party? I am 100% making French Onion Soup & serving it directly inside individual pumpkin shells! Ooo I just had an idea of spooning in the salad after everybody is done with their soup. Plus New England to Cali twist a pre-party separate guacamole pumpkin dish!

The Finale: I’m tossing the whole shell into the oven to possibly bake it down into a rich, sweet puree OR try out my French onion soup idea with Pumpkin bread croutons!

Once it's baked, here are a couple of culinary possibilities…

🥣 Savory Dinner Delight – Wedges or Whip the warm pumpkin flesh with butter, garlic powder, salt, & a pinch of nutmeg?

🥣 Breakfast Hash/Mash? – Never had a pumpkin one & just thought of this so need to search possibilities to make that happen

Have you ever tried using a real pumpkin as your dishware?

Honored to be asked on a TV show again as it still surprised me they found me! 🎥💖💫

Coincidentally, from a show shown around the world, to one starting up in our backyard! I took this photo at Casa De Bloom’s new business reality YouTube series.

Yet, it was this sign there that got me thinking & tuned in to a universal truth…. 🙏🤍

Who knew Life Mastery could be as simple as untucking your sheets? One of the Tony Robbins speakers shared about keeping your feet from pointing. It makes me wonder if Mastering life is in these micro-shifts.

Plus taste the Rainbow 🌈 😉 in a Whole Foods healthy way…. You don’t have to get the 30 varieties you hear about just adding to the variety that you eat. Like adding organic papaya now or a green drink in to make up for what I need in life. Yet the life mastery Phoenix being rainbow colored didn’t come from this, it came from my intuition of it feeling right & later, I realized when I was born, my oldest cousin had given me a nickname & said I was as beautiful as a rainbow.

You are as beautiful as a rainbow when you’re clear too. There’s talk about the color of our chakras being a rainbow. 🌈. It’s been said a rainbow requires both the storm & the sun to exist. My last post about a breakthrough with grief was a breakthrough with Life. Some of our food ties are deeply emotional we are rising up through like a Phoenix! Sometimes it doesn’t feel fun in the moment, it feels good in the long-term. Becoming almost natural and in the training, “Nothing tastes as good as healthy feels!”

So whether you look into the latest devices that help regulate your vagus nerve, to putting a pillow between your shoulders & your legs while you side sleep. Experience the deep power of proper squatting or literally p*e your way to health. You might tie positive programming to daily habits. While brushing my teeth. I know I will be singing their: 🎵 “Every little cell in my body is happy, every little cell in my body is happy & well!” Simultaneously I will lift onto my toes to pump my lymphatic system, flushing out toxins and skyrocketing my energy. (I already knew Lymph work =👍)

What’s a tip that’s changed your life for the butter err I mean better? Even though they recommend staying away from dairy... I’m filled with ghee now! 🧈😉 My Coffee will rotate days off to tea, to cacao! We can see in nature Life loves diversity making the world work. So why not in the World that is you. What’s also the next upgrade you’re adding in?

Just add…? What ingredients do you need to bring in to let your inner child rise? ✨

First a breakthrough memory from the past came up…
“You’re eating celery?!” 😮🤣😂
My Dad couldn’t believe it because I used to HATE celery.
I smiled as I ate it and said, “You know the work I do with other people? I did it on myself.”
He was absolutely shocked. 🤯

I was in a Zoom group sharing this and was crying. Such a different emotional state than the wonder this morning at 6am…

I see Unicorns?! 🦄

My Life Mastery Room was filled with the Team wearing virtual horns in the same colors of the baby Phoenix Feathers!

I didn’t know our team was now called the Unicorns and growing up I would combine my love of Unicorns and Pegasus with a Unicorn Pegasus & now I looked like one with the wings in the background! … once I figured out how to get that virtual hat on that is! 🦄🐦‍🔥✨

It’s inspiring me to share how I was Tasting some of my Childhood at this event & the present breakthrough I had with stress eating...

Zooming back in to crying on my own & feeling deeper. Stress eating was better than ever …yet increased when… my amazing dad died.
That was the key 🔑
He always made things better.
I realized I couldn’t unconsciously see a future.
My fantasy visioning (Day Dreaming) was locked away by grief & I reclaimed it.
I started having in depth positive visions!

I went to honor him through food using the ingredients from the cleanse. When my dad had his military FITREPS, he would do the cabbage soup diet as he would drop tons of weight. It didn’t work for me, though I made it my own sautéing cabbage, adding bone broth, and spices .. then pumpkin.

Shockingly, it tasted like the cabbage and dumplings he made when I was a child. A family tradition passed down. Now I can have it in a healthy way! Such a gift! 🎁

I love healing so much. You never quite know where it will take you and it’s all in a journey of you…

Maybe it’s time to separate out the ingredients and make something new. Where it could shock you back into a healed inner child and a new recipe for health … & life. 🌱✨

Happy Moving Fourth, everyone! 🎆🐦‍🔥

Robert Frost once wrote, “Some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice.” Moving from the fire with creation to break the ice, like a Tony Robbins Life Mastery Ice Bath Challenge, we step out of our comfort zones and ignite our own Phoenix egg as a crystallized form of possibility.

What blew me away is walking into in my Semi-Spontaneous 4th of July and pulling a card from a random Deck that was a “Growth of Energy Egg” after posting the Life Mastery Zoom Phoenix Journey background on Facebook already!

This was after being at Hobbit looking bookstore I will post about! I loved celebrating 250 years with all of you! The feeling of the joy in everyone as I moved through the day was unmatched!

Since I am single, and haven’t met the right man aka my match yet, I sparked up heading to fireworks alone. I drove in the sunset, thinking that might be early enough to get there in time & was iced out… parking was full. With “Life is happening for me, not to me”. I went to circle around in a cul-de-sac.

I saw a couple walking by, with my mind & my window open, I asked them where could I see the fireworks best from on high here in the streets above. I’d already walked 10,000 steps and closest parking was unbelievably far away.

He said to follow me and I drove ahead to where he mentioned, and as I turned around and came back down, he even parked me on the street! Such kindness deserves charms and I pulled out the Fourth of July ones that I had bought to share in celebration. This is the American Spirit I grew up with!

On another random cul-de-sac with sparks in the air and inside my heart I ended up having a magical fireworks experience. It reminded me of being with family and friends huddled in anticipation. The big show came to a close and I rushed into my car to beat the traffic … instead drove in fireworks after fireworks going off all around me in a way I’ve never experienced before!

Let freedom ring or in this case explode…safely in the air with care! 250 years looks good on you America! Much Love & Apple Pie Kisses! 🥧 💋 🇺🇸

Graduated Tony Robbins Mastery University & excited to celebrate with you! 👩‍🎓💥

Out of the fire, the Phoenix rises. 🔥🐦‍🔥 Representing the energy of ultimate transformation~ burning away old limitations to step into a completely new version of yourself.

It has been an incredible deep dive training in human psychology, strategic intervention, and peak performance.

Plus I learned last week I’ve officially built a “Gucci tool belt” of elite strategies. 😉🔧

I didn’t just do this for my own growth. I am so excited to bring these tools back to my clients and help people break through their own blocks.

Here’s to rising higher, breaking limits, and creating a life we truly love! 🥂✨ To everyone who has cheered me on, sent beautiful messages, and celebrated this milestone with me, thank you from the my whole heart! Your energy means the world to me!
