Soul-level resistance is truly a breath of crisp, clean air. It fills my heart with light to know that we're never alone when we fight for what's ours and fight for what's right. Thank you for lending us your strength.

Thank you so much for your powerful words. This was such a synchronicity for me. My sister and I were talking about making a podcast about grounding as a way for us to find our footing and as a way to help others and then I opened up this message. This was exactly the medicine I needed.

Juliet your ability to transmute that horrible comment into fuel to shed light on fear and give us back magic is truly an inspiration 💫✨🌟

I appreciate you and thank you. It’s a difficult time to navigate so I keep that in mind anytime I get caught in the line of fury. I’m not a stranger to it and know how it feels to hold it in my chest. I felt more compassion for that person than anything else.

There are people in my communities that took the news of Trump's election and all his hateful moves in stride and just kept moving forward, because we have never relied on the government to keep us safe, not really. Queer people look out for queer people. People who use drugs look out for other people who use drugs. Neighbors look out for neighbors. That is how my ancestors survived and why I am in existence today. We are just going to keep on looking out, and pay no respect to those who don't respect us. Our energy and attention is just better served elsewhere. It feels good, to look out for each other. It does dismantle the empire, with a better society in place.

beautiful piece -- thank you for sharing. This remembering of our gifts is what I feel I've been seeking, to root into trust, love, and radical visions for the future rather than letting the uncertainty and fear of the moment unmoor me. I appreciate the reframe of the question "what will happen to me?" into "what will happen to us?"

Thank you 🙏🏽 . Trust, love, and radical vision are indeed the anchors against the tides. May we continue to root ourselves in them, holding each other steady as we shape the future.
