Wow Steemit
Here we are, ready to embark on a new adventure together.

I was just writing this morning about how the more i’ve gone inward, the more i’ve realised that yeah, it IS about time everything shifts and new legs of the journey branch off in every which direction as a departure towards the next life, the next me, is in full effect.

Let me catch you up. Grab some coffee and we’ll call it a date.


About four years ago now, I left my home state of Nebraska in pursuit of possibilities. It wasn’t my decision to go (or so i thought from my limited perspective) and reluctantly i was swept off in the current of what would come to mark the biggest turning point of my life.

I was fourteen at the time, starting high school to which i went one week of and promptly decided that NO actually, thank you very much, i had more important things to do. Not that education isn’t important-- it IS, but there was a road of self-education calling me towards it.

It was in Santa Barbara, California that i found myself placed in a sea of spiritual communities who i can only credit for facilitating the space for my own deep dive into everything beyond the practical. I don’t know that it was so much intentional as it was that i had unknowingly developed a penchant for magic, mystery, and miracles. I admired the sex appeal of reality creation before even knew what that would mean.

As i grew, and landed myself in the heart of the pacific-- Hawaii, i continued my exploration of the internal, taking it deeper and deeper steady as i went, with each step drawing nearer and nearer to something that i would only come to find was with me all along. (classic coming of age story, right? The search for the thing that in the end, was only ever illusive to begin with.)

The more i dived into the realms of deliberate creation, the more i could never get enough, and eventually my own fascination with what i was studying began to overflow into what started as a way for me to feel brave, bold, connected, and purposeful amidst a period of extreme confusion and disenfranchisement, but has unfolded into what is now how i express and contribute in my own way-- Passion, Purpose, FLOW, baby.

I began sharing my writing with the internet.. Facebook, more specifically.

And as it has morphed and changed, and I have unfolded and become, the way in which i’ve shared has taken on many different forms, always with the undeniable “end goal” of stepping into something centered in ME. Not ever really finding IT, if that’s even possible. Little did i know, or maybe i did intellectually but not so much experientially, there was and is always a consistent law that states that you can have everything you fucking want exactly as you fucking want it.

It took me a long time to allow myself to grasp (and i still continue to dynamically take it to heart every day as i will in ever increasing increments for the rest of my human life) that i could actually just be myself, and get fucking paid wildly to do so. (a long time being completely relative… i am only eighteen, though i forget on the daily.)

That YES actually, I could just share my art, my experience, my stories, my SELF, with the world through conversation and contribution and the message the comes through me in total FLOW whatever that looks like each day AND not to mention, have it fucking all along the way.

Fame and Fortune and AH-mazing fucking experiences, Beyond words incredible SOVEREIGN relationships, gorgeous scenery, the freedom to explore the world MY WAY, the most decadent earth foods, and extreme luxury, and a multi 8 figure business, and and AND, JUST for turning inward and taking creative reign of my experience through the willingness to understand that i’m actually running the whole show of my own life.

Fast forward to now, after the entirety of the whirlwind that has been my last four years, we meet at the conjunction of everything i've remembered, all the things i've become, and the steep hunger for MORE, and the time has come for change.

The time has come to depart from this beautiful Island mama who has taken me in as one of her own so graciously,
To leave once again everything i have ever known behind and start completely anew,
To depart from the identity of adolescence which bears the gifts of stories which do not serve me any longer…

Even though she has served me well,
We’ve reached the next major turning point in this existence,

This time though, i get to pre-pave my reality
And I’m taking with me only what matters most.
Leaving the rest to dance with someone else for a change.
Gypsy travel the world for what i can only guess will be years to come
Eat all the Earthfoods
Build a fucking empire -- thats where YOU come in
And live the most extraordinary damn life you have ever seen.
Just for being me.

I’m taking big juicy bites out of this world.
Are you coming with me?

McKenzie

Thank you for sharing this platform with me, and of course, thank you for encouraging me. YOU ROCK!

And yes, school definitely does not support independent thinking, which is obviously what i'm all about... Definitely not for me. and YES to the system conformity. Have you ever watched Prince EA's Youtube video about the school system?? SO GOOD, i feel you would really resonate with it!

SO MUCH LOVE, GIRL. <3
