November. Recalibration. Alignment.

November has been a month for recalibrating — updating my goals and vision, both for myself and for ALMA. It’s felt like a season of metamorphosis, of mutation. And honestly, I think that’s what we as women embody: these phases of morphing, shedding, bringing new life. New ideas. New ways of being.

Sometimes we hold onto a fixed idea of what something should be, and somewhere along the way, it transforms into something different — more attuned, aligned, soulful.

For the past couple (okay… quite a few!) years, I’ve struggled with being too controlling — needing everything planned, predictable, under control. But something in my body and in my soul feels different now. This feels like a season of change. And I’m here, recalibrating and updating my dreams. Asking myself: What do I really want to create? What brings me joy? What fills my cup? And what is ALMA truly here for?

It’s so important to leave behind the versions of ourselves that no longer are. To shed the outdated skins. To pause and check in with ourselves — the “you” that exists today. What do you really want? What is asking to be born through you?

What’s been filling my cup lately…I’ve been practicing Kundalini with the Benshen team every morning for a bit over a week now, and it’s been helping me align with the version of myself I’m ready to embody. ThetaHealing with Senda has also been incredibly eye-opening. And I’m trying to slow down: to take time, make space, savor my matcha, breathe, be present on my sofa with my dogs, and actually be aware.

One of the main things I’d been working on with my therapist is my low tolerance for frustration (so annoying!) and my struggle with uncertainty — aka: control freak tendencies. I can’t say I’m fully recovered (lol), but the awareness alone has shifted so much. Allowing myself to see the pattern, to notice how it affects my nervous system and limits my life — who I can be, what I can create, the life I can manifest — has been huge.

So for now, I’m aiming to be gentler with myself. To gain clarity on who I am today, what I’m ready to let go of, and what this current version of me truly wants. To navigate uncertainty not as a threat, but as a door to endless possibility.

So if you want to reflect with me this season, here are some prompts I’ve loved:

• What does the woman I am today truly want?

• What do I want to bring to life?

• What version of myself am I ready to let go of?

• What fills my cup?

• In what areas of my life am I operating on automatic and outdated patterns?

• What am I feeling today? Where in my body am I feeling it?

Hope these help you come back to yourself — and uncover your own prompts and rituals along the way.
