This is Where the Shift Happens
There comes a time in every liberation journey when dreaming is no longer enough.
You’ve unlearned, deconstructed, dismantled—now what?
You root.
You commit.
You begin to build.
Today’s conversation is a homecoming. Not just to community, but to the self—your nature-being, your capacity, your divine alignment. This is not a “get it perfect” kind of day. This is a get rooted day.
This is for the ones who are ready to make their liberation real.
Not loud. Not flashy. But sustainable, sacred, and soul-led.
What’s in the Clip
This clip is the real-life, root-level reflection on what commitment looks like when your life shifts—because the truth is, capacity is not static.
You’ll hear me speak candidly about what it means to reassess commitments with tenderness, honor your limitations without shame, and let your personal truth reshape the way you show up for the collective. There’s also a word in here for the recovering martyrs and those still healing from systems that praise self-sacrifice but punish boundaries.
This is where we put our sacred foot down and say:
No more disposable labor in the name of liberation.
In this moment, we explore what it really means to commit to the work without abandoning yourself to do it.
📌 Timestamp Gems:
15:48 — “I cannot do what I used to do—and that’s not failure, that’s evolution.”
17:00 — Releasing coercion, reclaiming consent: why “enthusiastic yes” is required in your liberation practice.
18:45 — How resentment and martyrdom get passed down like generational curses—and how we stop the cycle by rooting our commitments in joy.
Three Things We’re (Re)membering Today:
Commitments must align with your capacity.
Liberation without limits is martyrdom. Know your bandwidth, and honor it like it’s sacred—because it is.Commitments are meant to evolve.
Life changes. You change. Your liberation work gets to change with you. That’s not failure—it’s fidelity to your truth.Personal commitment must reflect collective intention.
Your healing is not separate from the world’s. When you commit to unlearning harm, you're also creating new patterns of care and justice for others.

R.O.O.T.S Method™
Reflect: I’ve realized I need more embodied community healing spaces.
Observe: I have energy for one monthly offering, not weekly.
Own: I am a spaceholder and educator.
Tether: This is for Black femmes navigating burnout.
Set: I’ll host a “Rest + Liberation” circle on the last Sunday of each month with a 3-month trial period.
