It's happening
I was on a drive this weekend and it really hit me
It's happening.
For months I tried to imagine what this summer would hold. There was a stretch where I actually thought I had it figured out, I could picture it and here we are, mid-July, and that picture looks nothing like what I imagined. The things surprising me most, the things actually amazing me, are the ones that would've been so easy to overlook if I'd just been waiting for the version I originally planned.
It's happening.
On Mondays, I've been prepping teaching material. And that prep has turned into such a deeper invitation to dig back into everything I've learned. Through certifications, through education, through my own story, my own therapy, my own trauma. It's one thing to hold that knowledge. It's another to have to open it back up and hand it to someone else and honestly its been SO hard and SO beautiful.

On Wednesdays, while cowork is happening simultaneously, Haven and Susie and I have been making our way through What Happened to You. Sitting with that book, together, in the middle of everything else we're building, it's moving in a way I didn't expect.

This weekend, we have a cleanup and we're weaving in restorative yoga and macramé made from recycled paper, all under the theme of resilience. Susie wrote the reflection for it, and honestly... I can't wait to share that with you. It's one of those things where I just keep finding myself saying “holy moly” it’s so good.

Tus Olas is really coming alive. Haven and I meet on Fridays to take everything we've researched and apply it to the program. We've mapped out a full story exploration experience, one that looks at patterns and behaviors, past and present, that explores your gifts and who you are. One that holds this tension I keep coming back to: you are not your story, this is not your identity and at the same time, it is so beautiful to know your story and to share it.
There's so much more I want to tell you about this part. I will. Soon.
Our first pilot program runs August 5th.

I don't think I fully know yet what all of this adds up to. I just know I'm not waiting for the summer I pictured anymore. I'm in awe of the one that's actually here and happening.
So much more so soon
