Now Let Us Begin: Celebration is Sacred
We talk a lot about accountability in liberation work. We talk a lot about grief.
But today, we’re talking about something just as vital: celebration.
Celebration is not a luxury. It’s not a distraction.
Celebration is strategy. It’s sustenance. It’s survival.
If we don’t make space to honor our growth, our relationships, and our collective wins — we risk replicating the same grind culture we’re trying to dismantle.
Today is about remembering that we deserve to be witnessed in our becoming.
What’s in the Clip
In this live, we move through the sacred pillars of why celebrating our growth and our connections is not just important, but necessary for sustainable liberation work.
We cover:
Why growth deserves acknowledgment — even (especially) the small milestones
How celebrating our relationships strengthens the long game of collective work
Why celebration itself can be a form of rest and replenishment for the soul
Real stories of community, commitment, and collective movement
This is an invitation to pause, to honor, and to allow yourself to be seen — by yourself and by your people.
Three Things We’re Reclaiming Today:
1. Growth Deserves Celebration
Liberation work is ongoing. It’s easy to get caught in the endless work of “what’s next?” without pausing to honor how far you’ve already come.
Celebrating growth — no matter how small — is how we build resilience. It’s how we remind ourselves that progress is happening, even if the systems we’re dismantling are massive.
Reflection Prompt: What is one small (or large) milestone in your growth that you can celebrate today?
2. Celebrating Relationships Sustains Collective Work
We’re not meant to do this work alone.
Celebrating the people who walk with you — those who support, challenge, witness, and believe in you — is critical to sustaining movement work.
The relationships are the revolution.
Reflection Prompt: Who in your life can you thank today for walking this journey with you? How can you honor them?
3. Celebration is a Form of Rest and Rejuvenation
Celebration isn’t a detour from the work. It is the work.
Making time to dance, laugh, cry tears of joy, rest, share food, share stories — this is how we build stamina for the long haul.
This is how we create embodied communities of care.
Reflection Prompt: How can you incorporate celebration as part of your rest practices this season?
The work we’re doing here doesn’t just live in theory — it lives in practice, in daily embodiment, and in collective care.
