Be Still and Let it Burn There is a balance to be found between self-creation and taking action in the world. While self-creation is crucial for understanding and freeing ourselves from deep-seated judgments and patterns, there's a risk of getting too caught up in this internal work. When this happens, it can become a form of avoidance, preventing us from actually taking action. Some issues require deep self-inquiry, some are best addressed with simpler methods, like letting go of unhelpful thoughts, and other issues require us to practice witnessing them until they naturally dissipate. Each path is valuable, but the key is knowing which to choose and when. Watch to learn an easy metaphor to help you make this choice well 🔥.

Are You Conforming or Protecting? In a world where conformity is mistaken for safety, true courage lies in questioning where we are hiding our authentic selves. What if the very act of conforming is a way of protecting ourselves from the risks of standing out? Real growth occurs when we challenge the status quo, not to rebel, but to discover our deepest truths. Ask yourself: "Where am I conforming to protect myself?" The answer is the key to accessing a deeper power within you. Watch my 3-minute video to go deeper. Loving us, JPM P.S.

WHEN WORDS STING, FINDING PRAISE IN POKES Today a friend called one of my ideas fanciful. I felt both a subtle poke in my belly and also a soft pleasure in my chest. Fantasy comes from the Latin word phantasia, which means ‘power of imagination’. What I felt in my gut was his suggestion that by not being realistic, my idea was un-good, which I made a proxy for my own un-goodness. I like to not skip over these small discomforts—not muscle through them or gloss over them—because they are little openings into a place where I can come to ‘know thyself’ more intimately and love myself more completely. Not only this, but by being with and letting go of the story that makes it hurt, I create a space where I can see clearly. Often in this space, I find wisdom, strength, and guidance in exactly that which provides discomfort. Here, I found a way to hear my friend's words as a voice of encouragement. To live from the power of imagination rather than realistically is my birthright, my bliss, and my gift. If it is true that we all have unique offerings in this life, then our authenticity will have us colliding with one another, and not without hurting or injuring one another. The offspring of our interlocution come from both the pleasure and pain of that dance. All of this is beauty. So slow down your listening, inquire into your feeling, find the praise in that which made the pain, and stand proudly for how who you are Being bangs, bumps, and burdens the world. Loving us, JPM PS - If you want to be freer to bang, bump, and burden the world, then comment below and tell me what you’d love to create. I’m here to help.

DISCOVER YOUR TRUE VALUE You will not discover the value of your work by sharing it with those closest to you nor with those who cannot understand it. You will only come to know your value through its being received by those who can hear it; unclouded by expectations and developed sufficiently. Share more widely. Be a beacon of possibility and let your light bring to you those who will show you the infinite value of your being. Loving us all, JPM
