Cultivating inner knowing
A question currently animating me about the inner life/spirit is:
What fills my heart with joy? What are my gifts of love? How I take big decisions in my life and accept changes of course? How can I bring color to my communities? How do I bring color to my communities?

A question currently animating me about the outer world/universe/multiverse is:
How dances connect communities? What acts bring joy to others? How others find their hearts?

Creating Music/Art,Journaling,Meditation,Rest

A moment I noticed my inner light kindled this month was:
When I stepped into dancing in front of others. I felt a feeling of electricity crossing through my body as I followed the rhythm, even when I didn't even know the correct steps, not stopping until the sounds around me had ceased. I won against my fear of dancing in public!

A moment I noticed my inner light dwindled this month was:
When I was faced with a big decision that made me get a little bit out of my original plans. Fortunately, with the help of Chalon, I was able to clarify my mind and heart, reminding myself on what I first set for my launch year. :)

Courage
Aligning action
Assumptions I'm examining right now are:
Happiness,Leadership,Time/Attention
November 2, 2025
I originally assumed:
I thought that there was always one right decision and the rest were wrong in some way or shape.
November 2, 2025
These assumptions are changing:
Now I sense that there are many right decisions, and the most "correct" one is the one that compels your heart the most.

A moment I stepped out of my comfort zone this month was:
When I went out alone in Cusco in the rain, without plans, destiny, or any ideas. Just me and me walking through the rainy roads, observing the many narratives unraveling around me while trying to share happiness towards my meetings with wise strangers! :>

Being intentionally away from technology and distractions has taught me:
You don't need to think the world is going to end if you don't reply to an important message. It's okay for you to relax outside of your work zone, and everything is going to be fine!

Thank you so much for noticing during our coaching sessions that I was a little bit distant. I was having a tough week because of my work, and it made me so happy to see that someone noticed and worried about me (I already said this to you, but I love to appreciate people so!) <3

Seeing people dancing the Andian Yunza, I felt so nostalgic. Remembering how, in my childhood, I would always be excited to dance at the Quadrilhas in my city. Every time they would scream, "Hey!" while choreographing, I would immerse myself in the memories of the many times I would listen to "Balance!" and dance in the rhytim of Northeastern Forro.
