Pictured: me last week in the hospital angry at The Universe for teaching me lessons that I asked for and needed 🏥😤👩🏻🏫
I'm back ladies and gentlemen, gaydies and gentlethems! 💪🏼🩹💥 For those clients and loved ones not in the know, I had quite an unexpected and unwanted adventure at the hospital for some time. I tend to be very protective of certain aspects of my personal life because that's just who I am. However, I feel there is an important lesson here that I would like to share.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD(DESS)(ES), THE UNIVERSE, JESUS, YOUR HIGHER SELF, WHOMEVER OR WHATEVER YOU BELIEVE IN, trust in and listen to yourself!!! 🙏🏼
ThErE'S nO NEeD to MaKE a LonG poSt tHaNKinG EvRYoNE yeah there is and the reason is YOLO.
I ignored my body and thought my modern woman brain knew better than my cave-woman instinct brain. 🧠🍖I try to do everything "all by myself" without asking for help. 🙃🙄
If you're a client of mine, you may be thinking, "But Jenaca, that's the opposite of how you guilefully yet benevolently gentle-parent me into taking care of myself, surely you practice what you preach!" 🤔🤔🧐
I haven't been y'all 🤣 🫣 I struggle just as much as you do with nurturing my self-care and promoting my own healthy self-centering. I was in the damn hospital and still trying to work from my hospital bed. I remember being on morphine and thinking my laptop was right there in my car in the parking lot and if I could just convince someone to get it for me I could "get a lot done." Girl what?! No. I couldn't even move my neck and elbows!
Thank you to the clients who graciously rescheduled and handled last minute cancellations with peace and good wishes. We love you and will contact you soon. To the clients who became supportive friends in a clutch (you know who you are), you showed me the true spirit behind what we owe each other as human beings. We love you and we will get you back on the books ASAP!🙏🏼📆
Thank you to the clients who came from far away and showed up at Subliminal right on time for your appointment when I dropped the ball trying to work from my hospital bed on my phone and missed seeing your appointment on my calendar to cancel appropriately. (No folks, I did not learn my lesson at first). I love you folks and I will see you soon. ✈️🚪🛫
Thank you to my light workers, energy workers, and local spiritual and religious community who flooded my spirit with Reiki and prayers, I promise you I could feel them in my heart and I will pass that energy on every chance I get. Y'all know how love works 😉 🌀💒💖🧙🏼♀️✨
Thank you to Hadi and Davion for pulling through and being rockstars at flexibility and winging it, and for being kind and patient with me when I was bursting into tears over every little thing. I love and appreciate you guys. 🦸🏽♀️🦹🏾♂️
Thank you BIG TIME to my parents for everything, you and I know all that you did and are doing to support me and the kids and it is far too much to list here! You are my foundation right now and it is so appreciated and seen. I love you. 🏡👷🏽👨🏼🏭
Thank you Joey for being there, being you, and loving and caring for the kids for me while I was out of commission. It's more important than some would think to have a child's favorite fast food order memorized, give a child a space to make a mess and clean it up, and to keep a child feeling reassured and safe. That's still brand new for you but you fell into it like a seasoned pro. It's harder than some would think to keep ME feeling taken care of and reassured and safe. You were pushy with medical staff for me, showed up literally at a moment's notice innumerable times, took control when I was weak, let me emote when I needed to, and most of all, you didn't hesitate to call me right out when I was trying to do too much for too many people. It means the world to me. I love you. 🌞🌜✨💩
Thank you Jonquil for being a total champion and using all the skills you've worked so hard at to keep your own boundaries, stay calm, and handle yourself like a boss. You were there listening to me lecture about the necessity of the Oxford comma while I was heavily medicated, providing much needed levity in the form of high-brow word play and low-brow puns that my brain desperately needed, sending me TikToks and 💩-posts to distract me when I couldn't sleep, and teaching me about your bass any time I needed to feel like I was home. You're my home little tiny baby boy. I love you buddy. 👶🏼🤓
Thank you Juniper for being you. When I called to gently break the news that I had to go to the hospital, you IMMEDIATELY had a plan of action. I barely got the sentence out and you told me, "Don't panic, here's what we're going to do. First, I'm going to start making phone calls..." The amount of pure natural leadership instinct and sheer chutzpah that moment showed me was beyond incredible. When I couldn't move my neck and arms you washed my face, put my hair in ponytails, told me I was pretty, fed me Rice Krispie treats by hand like a horse, made me laugh and laugh, and made all my pain and worries look small next to your presence. You don't have social media because you're 10 but someday you'll know. I love you my beautiful baby. Twins! Potato 👯♂️
I'll be taking appointments at the end of this week and moving forward will be taking Fridays off. (Yes folks, I did learn my lesson eventually).
Remember, if you don't really, genuinely try to love and care for your physical, spiritual, emotional, and mental whole self, THE UNIVERSE WILL SMACK YOU OVER THE HEAD AND SHOW YOU HOW, whether it is convenient for you or not!
