I have a favorite fork

It was one of the things I MADE SURE made it into the packing for our
x-country move
I can look into this dish rack and know exactly which tines belong to my favorite fork

Not because they loook markedly different, no, simply because I KNOW my fork.

The weight of it in my hand

The length of the tines

The way it fits the perfect sized bite for my mouth

I take great joy in eating with this fork

I feel genuine aliveness when I reach for it amongst the clean dishes, and I delight when Mk happens to be preparing a meal or setting the table and I see that she’s given me “Mum’s favorite fork”

It’s a small thing in the grand scheme of life

I can live without it, and I do - on occasion- enjoy a meal with the other forks in the house

But I prefer to use that fork. Every time.

Why bother?

Why take the time to wash this one fork when we have so many other choices?

Why ensure I use this fork almost exclusively?

Simple.
Because it makes me f’n happy

And that is the single best reason to do anything

(Yet the reason that most often gets justified away)

It’s a bittersweet thing
The closing of one chapter (or cohort in this case)
The sweet celebrations of a journey well travelled!

The awe and joy of transformation

And then we must let go, only to begin again.

I am loving Celebrating these badass women who’ve had the courage to push their sledges and dismantle their comfort zones!

Now comes the anticipation for what’s next!

For those women who refuse to go into 2025 settling for another year of mediocrity.

Those who are committed to taking full responsibility for your life and your sense of aliveness in life.

It’s time to grab this thing by the horns.

It is time to heal what needs to be healed, reveal where your patterns are buried and pull them out by the roots, so you can come alive again!

So you can PLAY!

and feel that aliveness that you secretly know is possible but don’t know quite how to find.

For those who may be feeling pretty good but know there’s one area of life that you are ready to Rise and make it even more magical than you ever dreamed possible- this is for you.

Rise and Shine, Mavens

We ride at dawn 😏

(Ok, not Dawn because I like sleep, but shortly after ;).
Next cohort opens mid October

PSA: The only evil lives in your mind
all the stress and overwhelm,
All your outrage (be it Olympics or anything else) going on “out there” is really an indication of whats going on INSIDE you
is just your conditioned beliefs, raging as they are challenged, trying to keep your self worth issues from being discovered.

The beautiful thing is, when you feel that outrage it means your pain body is being exposed and that is the PERFECT time to peek below the surface with curiosity about what those beliefs are

Curiosity if holding them so tightly is still serving you, the way it did when they were created

When we are willing to look within , honestly identify the overgrown w**ds that we’ve allowed to consume the landscape, take responsibility for the consequences of that wild mess, and lovingly w**d to the garden of our mind, only then can we create the most beautiful landscape we can imagine

Only then can we disengage from the anxiety, stress, fear, shame, frustration, resentment and anger

Only then can we take our power back from the story we have been creating through the window obscured by all those wild w**ds, and see more clearly the reality that feels most Fullfilling

Only then can we write a script made of scenes that are ful of ALIVENESS

There is a path and process to finding your aliveness

There is a way beyond stress and frustration and exhaustion

I know they way and I am delighted to walk it with you

It’s Time to RISE & SHINE Ladies!

The time is now!
ALIVENESS workshop Fri/Sat online & in person
Dm for registration

Late fall of 2004 I packed up my little blue honda CRV
And started driving from Maine…
I wasn’t sure where I would land

I had a flip phone (which was pretty new for me), an atlas the size of my entire torso, and an adventurous spirit

Along the way I answered a Craigslist ad for a roommate
had a phone call with one of the 3 guys who lived in the house and after that call, I put a check in the mail to him for my deposit- sight unseen

I was trusting the check would get there and that I would be allowed in when I arrived- which would be days after they’d cashed it

I’d just rented a room In a ski house in Lake Tahoe California

3,000 miles from where I’d started that drive

At that point in my life, I traveled with the seasons for 4 straight years, moving all over the US working the tourist season then moving on.

I intended for this stop to be the same- work the winter and then find my next summer adventure

Little did I know Lake Tahoe would capture my heart and change my life forever

I learned to ski
Then I learned to rock climb

I bought my first tent, and then my first everything else gear and camping related!

Made the best of friends, and lost some really good ones too

Made a baby and became a mom 💕

We’re held hostage by everything we’ve outgrown...

yet refuse to release.

Let that sink in

Comment “RISE” for info Rise & Shine, an 8 week Women’s microdose adventure into personal evolution

We create the bars that cage us in by clinging to the stories, people, jobs, thoughts, actions and beliefs that are no longer a fit

Like a growing child forced to wear last year’s clothes, we walk around feeling restricted, unable to take a deep breath or ever fully relax

trapped in our own skin by the extra load we outgrew but are stubbornly still carrying

If we let this go on awhile we can sort of forget that sleeves are too short and our pants too narrow, but we feel it in other ways

A nagging anxiety creeps in, it greets us each morning and tucks us in every night

Its subtle at first but soon we notice that we are snappy and irritated in our everyday tasks

Unfulfilled and depressed in our outdated routines

Uninspired

Eventually the discomfort persists and we are very aware that our sleeves are too short our shirt is too tight and F these damn pants that we can barely stuff ourselves in anymore!

This is when we usually reach for something to numb the discomfort.

That seemingly harmless nightly glass of wine
Pacifying the stress with food
Mindless scrolling to distract from our feelings
Extra workouts to try and outrun the anxiety
Maybe some anti-depressants to take the edge off

The best way to break free from this self-imposed prison is through connection

Rise & Shine was born to provide that space.
A space for incredible women who are doing incredible things but in some outdated outfits that are holding them hostage

Women who are ready to get out of the restrictive mindset, stories, and actions, and expand into their full vitality and creativity!

Women who want to feel turned on by Life again

Radiant
Curious
Expansive

Women who are ready to
✨ RISE & SHINE ✨

Are you ready to release what you’ve outgrown and stop being a hostage to your outdated stories?

The Rise and Shine Sanctuary opens in August, a perfect time to evolve 🦋

It was early spring 2017
I’d completed a 200 hour yoga teacher training and was now midway through a 300 hour combined shamanic studies/yoga teacher training.
Part of our certification included mastering the transformational power Breathwork and facilitating Breathwork journeys for emotional and physical healing.
Honestly, I didn’t get it at first. I mean, I understood the power and importance of breath from my education as a doula and midwife. Breath was a huge part of my toolkit in that arena.
But “Breathwork” as it is known- I just didn’t get it. I breathed in and out fast and strong and nothing happened.
I felt annoyed. Angry almost. Each weekend I would endure another breath practice and each time I felt the same annoyance, the same confusion, what was the point of this?
I chose to focus more on facilitating than experiencing the breathe for myself since it just didn’t seem to “work” for me.
Facilitation was second nature. The midwife in me already knew well how to hold safe and grounded space for people while they traverse deep waters and go through major transformations. I knew how to prepare them and guide them and help them integrate the experience on the other side.
Then one day something different happened. I cracked open. I “got it.” I had the most blissful and transcendent experience- simply from breathing!
Since that day 7 years ago, I’ve studied and certified in numerous styles and methods of breathing. I have helped people heal all sorts of tenderness that needing healing.
Emotions
Traumas
Fears
Seizures
And birth new ideas, businesses and relationship insights, all with the breath.

It is my great honor to bring these teachings to my local community and to do it with such a stunning collaborator and gifted sound healer.

Join us march 24th at the beautiful where I will guide you through a transformational breath practice and will envelope you in a healing sound bath to calibrate your being to this new and lighter frequency of existence.

Let’s make the most of Spring Equinox energy and step into the season awakened and renewed!

We often confuse niceness for kindness.

And label directness as mean.

We refrain from giving honest feedback because we “don’t want to hurt their feelings” but guess what, that person is already hurting. Read that again.
They are already suffering, I promise you

That’s why they are acting the way they are.

***You aren’t saving them from pain, you are preventing them from growing, and therefore from feeling better***

In order to grow (or heal) we have to BREAK THROUGH the present moment limitations in our thinking.

To do that we need to “poke the bear”

Meaning, pe*****te our subconscious, that storage shed of stories, traumas, and beliefs that we are biologically designed to protect from provocation, yep that one.

The amygdala is beautifully designed to resist these attempts at pe*******on.

Its like a fortress holding all the “bad” stuff and keeping close track of it for us.

As you might imagine, it doesn’t take kindly to being F’d with.

Not only does it store things, it also pumps out filters for us to see the World through, based on what’s in that storage locker.

Sooo yea, it can be uncomfortable to get in there and rewire the database

but that thing everyone is being too nice to poke, it needs to get poked if we wanna have feel better.

Personally, I think that helping someone storm the fortress walls and BREAK THROUGH the limitations currently running the show is
THE MOST KIND thing one can do.

If you want someone to p***y foot around with you, hold hands and validate all of your (victim) stories, by all means find that, its everywhere.

Be clear and honest with yourself that that is what you want.

If you are saying you want help making radical change then accept it, and the momentary discomfort it comes with

When you are ready for someone to be kind enough to honor your time, money, resources, intelligence, and your commitment to evolving and having a better life then I am your girl.

Let’s not p***y foot around (though we might hold hands because I like that ;) )

Direct can be the most loving and kind path to awakening

Why Everyone -yes even men- needs a Midwife in Life:

In the last 20 years of loving humans through big transformations, I have noted the

4 KEY UNIVERSAL TRUTHS

that yield the best outcomes for metaMORPHAsis - and all of them were shown to me first as I welcomed over 100 babies to Earth.

The process remains the same for every other form of creation, transformation, or vision going forward, which is why ALL PEOPLE NEED MIDWIVES to walk with them on their own evolutionary adventure.

Universal Truths:

1. The most lasting change happens outside one's comfort zone

this may sound obvious but people easily miss what this means. Literally getting out of familiar territory to new environments compounds the efficacy of any coaching, workshop, program, training, healing, or journey.
** In childbirth I recommend staying IN familiar surroundings but that's because the Inner Birth terrain itself is plenty new and unfamiliar

2. It doesn't always look pretty, or sound sweet, or feel warm and fuzzy

Our subconscious/personality/amygdala has one job- SURVIVAL. to mitigate risk and keep us safe. Its damn good at it, and it reallllly doesn't respond well to being poked. But ya know what- often the most effective method to breakthrough those limiting patterns of thought and create real and lasting change of perception is by poking.

3. The most profound creations (including babies) emerge from being pushed to the edge.

And its really valuable having a super grounded presence next to you on that edge

4. Levity is a KEY ingredient for optimal outcomes

We must keep our sense of humor intact and be provided opportunities to laugh at ourselves, and to Play. To make light, to marvel at the absurdity, especially as we expand our perception and SEE how limiting and silly our previous thought forms were. Without bringing Levity here we slip into shame. That completely destroys the progress

When you align yourself with support that understands, honors, and operates within these truths, the success of the transformation you set out to create increases exponentially

We have countless beliefs hardwired into our minds, created and embedded during our earliest life experiences, and still operating today. Our thoughts are born through these beliefs. How we view our circumstances and relationships are all through the lens of our beliefs.

Beliefs -> thoughts -> experiences

If you want to have different/ better feeling experiences you’ve got to update the belief hardware running your show

That process can be uncomfortable but it can also be full of loving support and FUN!
Ask me how I know 😏

Loving you in your fullest expression! 🦋

YOU DON’T F’N KNOW ME!

(Pardon me, I don’t mean to yell, but It’s necessary)

These words started as a playful way for me to prepare for a massive commitment that was on the horizon

As that commitment approached, the words became more meaningful.

Days before THE BIG DAY, our guide asked us to share our mantra, for the inevitable hard moments that would greet us.

Amidst the groups’ “each step makes me stronger” and “I can do hard things” was my mantra - “You don’t fu*king know me”

What started out as a playful idea adopted from a story a friend shared with me, became the single most impactful phrase I’ve ever said to create my own personal transformation

And I dare say it impacted a few others on the trail with me that day

We began the descent into the Grand Canyon, the beginning of 20 miles, Rim to a river to Rim, 4,500 feet down and then 4,500 feet back up, in one day

27 degrees at Sunrise and high spirits

Walking alongside our guide for a short spell early on he says, “Launa, I gotta ask what’s the story with your mantra??”

Probably not one he often hears

I opened my mouth to answer and right in that moment it all became clear why those words weren’t just play, they mattered to me

I told him, “You don’t know me is what I’m saying to remove any story. Any limitation about what’s possible for me today.
If I feel pain, I’m not going to let it mean that this will be too hard. Or that I can’t do it. Or even that it will hurt the whole time. I’m not going to let it mean anything.

My past health issues don’t get to dictate what happens today. That was a past Launa and now you don’t know me.
This place doesn’t know me.
No one’s judgments, fears, or concerns about me (however well-intentioned) get to have a say, They don’t know me!”

I don’t even know me!”

Total freedom

Free from story

Free from expectation

That was exactly what I needed for this endeavor.
But I couldn’t yet know the total impact that mantra would have. That would be revealed later- in layers- over many many miles…
