A Year Long Experiment With Daily Practices
Today feels like a restart, but in a way I’ve never done before.
I’m weaving together daily movement and creativity, guided not by rigid plans but by intuition and body cues. This time, I’m wearing all the hats: the coach, the trainer, the nutritionist, the art teacher. This doesn’t mean I’m disregarding the expertise of others or ignoring the knowledge and techniques I’ve learned along the way. It’s about putting myself in charge of deciding what to implement, moment by moment, in alignment with what my body and creative spirit are asking for, rather than outsourcing those decisions.
It might seem obvious that we should listen to ourselves, but for me, this feels like a radical shift. I’m someone who thrives on learning, growing, and seeking out coaches and experts to guide the way. That hunger for knowledge has shaped so much of who I am. But it also trained me to undervalue my own wisdom. To assume someone else must have the better plan, the sharper method, the right answer.
This restart feels different because it isn’t about finding the perfect program or ideal system—it’s about finally giving myself permission to be the authority. To trust that the years of learning I’ve absorbed are already within me, and I can draw from them as needed. It’s not about disregarding what others know, but about holding it alongside my own voice and making space for what my body and spirit are asking for in real time.
Documentation
My idea is to document the process on my YouTube channel, and I debated on whether I wanted to make my videos public, or keep them private, or share later down the road, or not.
At this point in time, I’ve decided to make them public.
My intention with this documentation is to keep things simple because I’m not making these to work on my video editing or film making, nor do I want to make this about teaching people something, providing “value” or gain subscribers.
The process is for me, and if somebody gets something valuable from it, great.
There is no plan around how I’m going to approach this. It’s a day by day thing where I’m going to process and decide as I go.
Day one is in the books.
