Creative Freedom

 

Heeeeey y’all! Now let’s get more into what creative freedom feels like, looks like, & is to me. *Deep breath* Throughout life I have noticed that I don’t like to be confined outside of my terms! & hey YOLO right!? lol! So when it came to social media I dreaded that my thoughts, feelings, & emotions would be withheld from my community because of the algorithm!! BIG eye roll! So instead of trying to calculate and relearn socials to beat the systems in place, I did this.

I went within myself (meditated) and realized that I had no real interest in relying on socials solely to grow myself professionally. Regardless of a plethora of research saying I need this tool to have a successful business, I figured there had to be another way to create freely & be successful! It’s pretty common for me to challenge the norms to keep my version of success (peace) as a top priority. Dani Dee is the challenge-eee haha! Then just like that ** cue angelic sound** ahhhhhhhh ding, the 💡 came on! Bloggiing!!!

Truly having genuine people read my content by alignment or from desiring to share with their loved ones, gives me a deep sense of fulfillment! It leaves me feeling creatively charged!

Can I let you in on a secret, come close I want to say this only once in a whisper. Okay here it goes, the judgment of social media “enough” likes, comments, & “crown me the algorithm champion” really put me in a Debbie downer state of mind. These irrelevant expectations made me question my very own thoughts of not measuring up to “good enough.” Honestly, those feelings were an unapologetic NO on something I birthed out of joy, peace, and love. & baaaaaby that feels so bomb to express to you, my dear readers! The power of vulnerability!

I still had a burning desire to find my creative freedom/outlet but it was a must to be free from the judgment of the “social games.” Soooooo here I am 2 blog post strong & so far hunty I love it here!

With a big encore of “HEEEEEY y’all!” I am giving my community a warm welcome to the place I call creative freedom from my eyes, the beholder.

It’s giving….. I’m thankful you are here to enjoy this blog journey with me!

P.s..... Bye-bye socials unless I am sharing “check out my latest blog.” ;) or feel inspired to share something really cool like the other side of the pillow.

Always with LOVE,

Dani aka MamaWomb

 

Intention, Fearlessness, and Faith

 

As a creative, I craved a free space to create and express myself without the algorithm games of not a certain amount of likes or comments your post wouldn’t even be visible to your followers. So if you are here by chance or you are part of my growing community, WELCOME I am Dani & cheers to my first blog of life changing events! 

As I write this on a hot sunny day in California, fearlessness, intention, & faith are my values for this chapter in my life. I’ve been blessed with time to pause and be present in my day to day life and wooooooow…. what a beauty the world is! I had time to reflect on the person I was vs the person I am evolving into! After leaving my “secure job” of 7 years on a whim, my life took a dramatic change of uncertainty.

In society’s eyes I had “made it” with the security bag on my side hip, lol but in my own world I was barely breathing. Seven years of fear I lived in with my “secure job”. Thankfully 7 is the number of completion in the spiritual and physical realm & who would of known by the time I was returning to security I would also be departing all in the same breath. That is when the fearlessness kicked in without me even consciously knowing it. 

The first few months was a phase of “did I really do that?”... “Is this really happening?”..“What does the future hold?”..Nobody ever leaves that place! “How am I going to continue to pay my bills?” My mind was racing a mile a minute!

At this point I had been on my spiritual journey for a good amount of time so I definitely had the tools but the foundation was truly built in this time of the unknown. I had nothing but God to depend on at this point in my journey & my wonderful family. So I started to understand and do things that made my heart sing like learning what I never had time to learn, spending more time in nature, finishing school, and launching my business. I had no choice at this point but to push forward in faith fueled fearlessness.

Now let’s be honest fearlessness comes with its times of fear for sure. It became a consistent reminder to stand guard of my mind everyday with affirmations in the mirror to start off this new life chapter. My fearlessness muscle started to be built on belief in what I was telling myself in the mirror. I began to feel my “I am” affirmations in that very moment! After sometime of doing these affirmative affirmations I started to learn more about intention. & let me tell you, it opened up new depths of my soul. 

I had got my flow of reciting my affirmations down, but was I actually being intentional? Now this was the time for me to retreat back into myself to reflect. What I learned after many days of meditation is that I wasn’t being intentional. & baaaaaby that is when the game changed FOREVER. 

Before I would do anything I would set my intentions for the day physically, spiritually, emotionally, & financially. At first it was very vague as I was still trying to get the hang of being intentional and how it would level up my life. I made sure to ease myself in one day at a time. I would focus on how I desired to feel emotionally, then physically, & so on & so forth. After a few weeks of dedication I was able to intentionally set my day & watch it unfold in faith. When I say game changer I mean it! Love took over my life and intentions! 

I started to truly feel happy for not only myself but others! My external life reflected what I was intentionally feeling inside!! It truly all starts with you! I started to look at life as an opportunity to grow & learn in love. Instead of being intimidated in the space of the unknown, I began to look out the lenses of inspiration. 

Faith came in a way where God kept flexin blessins on blessins in my life (on GOD) lol. I could no longer store my faith in anything outside of myself or God. The security of the man-made matrix was out of the window. For once I felt like I could fly, like I could exhale a deep long sigh of relief & breathe. The impossible actually seemed possible!

I learned I didn’t have to keep pouring from an empty cup. I could nourish myself by slowing down & taking life one day at a time. That I could be blessed and bless others in the process. So when I think of where I started then fast forward to now, I wouldn’t change anything for the world. Every lesson, stressor, or hurdle was for my expansion. This allowed me to embody fearlessness, intention, & faith!!

These chain of divine events birthed OnenessWomb with a clear vision to bring balance, relaxation, & nourishment to my community of people. LIBERATION is for every single human being on this earth to experience!! My 7 years of fear turned out to be the very thing that unlocked the door to trusting the unknown with a heart of expansion. 

Sending blessings with LOVE,
