I just want to talk about what I'm experiencing at this point in the Identity Alchemy Challenge. Day 23/28: We are getting close to the end now and everything is going according to schedule and my body is literally feeling the gradual shifts that haven taken place. The work is compounding and now the body is catching up to the work we've done up until now. I want to start by saying, It feels VERY uncomfortable to have more time and energy. It's like my mania wants to kick in a spend it all like a kid with too much money in a candy shop. I want to GOOO even when I'm meant to be still. My body spent its whole life being overactivated and in overdrive. This is part of living with bipolar. It's been my mission to manage my bipolar by giving myself structure and managing my energy intentionally and my body simply wants to get up go go go go. So much is coming up that hasn't been processed over the years and it has triggered my PTSD symptoms, to be honest. My time in the military suppressed parts of my identity that didn't have the space or acknowledgement to be processed so it got shoved down. Im at a point in my life, many years later, that I'm able to now process it. My nervous system is already always activated from a biological stand point so things compound quickly when living with bipolar. It's like always being turned on and the military trauma added to this and made it MUCH worse. Part of finding myself outside of the military, is managing the need to operate from hyper vigilance and urgency. I'm VERY aware of when I'm activated and even now as I type, I'm speeding up while typing and feeling the tension and speed rise as autopilot starts to take over simply by talking about this. What has been helpful for me is to intentionally SLOW DOWN as often as I can but ESPECIALLY when I notice things start to become rapid like my talking or my thoughts, or when I feel like I can't sit still. This creates the sensation of wanting to jump out of my skin. I'm developing the discipline to overcome this and so the work is working but it has been HARD.

Fifty conscious choices to show up as the new identity. Fifty signals. Fifty data points proving it is real. #HouseOfSwords #IdentityAlchemy

Welcome to Day 1 of the Intuition Bootcamp. I'm so glad you're here. This week is not about learning something new. It's about stopping the interference so you can finally hear what you already know. Today we're starting with the foundation: Calibration. What you need to do today: 1️⃣Watch the Welcome Video & Day 1 video inside the classroom 2️⃣Do the calibration drill inside the lesson 3️⃣Catch yourself in at least 3 moments today where you knew the answer before your mind got involved — write them down to record them 4️⃣Come back to this post and comment DONE ✅ once everything is complete Your one question to carry through today: "What was my first response — and did I follow it?" That's your whole practice today. Everything else builds from that. 🏆 QUARTER CUP CHAMPIONSHIP (FREE & PREMIUM MEMBERS) Every one including free members are able to participate and earn points for their house. Each day you complete earns your house 50 points. That means showing up, doing the work, and coming back here to mark yourself done. Seven days, seven check-ins, 350 points on the table. Your house is counting on you — and so is your intuition. Once you've watched the video and completed the drill, come back here and comment DONE ✅ with your house name so your points get logged. 🤔💭QUESTIONS & FEEDBACK And if anything comes up — a question, a moment that surprised you, something that landed differently than you expected — drop it below too. This is a community, not a classroom. You don't have to do this alone. 🤍 Let's go. Day 1 starts now.

Hello everyone, It has come to my attention that some people are feeling overwhelmed and dropping off due to the pacing of our 90 day terms. I want everyone to know it is NOT necessary to follow the same pace. Many people enter the Academy at different times so it doesn't make sense to have a strict tempo that everyone needs to adhere to. The pacing simply provides focus and keeps me accountable. The structure is intended to guide you regardless of how fast or slow you move through the content. The structure is there for everyone to give you a guided path but please do not feel you have to maintain the same tempo as the academy. That is unreasonable and unrealistic. Everyone's life is different and everyone has different commitments and responsibilities. Please, take the time you need to actually take in, enjoy, and apply the content in a meaningful way that works with your lifestyle. I'm here to meet you where you're at and to guide you, the rest is up to you. You dont even have to follow the structure if you dont want to, your wants and needs come first. Regardless of how you spend your time here, your active participation is all that is required and you earn points for your house merely by showing up and participating. Please don't quit or feel bad for "falling behind." There is no such thing. Sending you all SO much love and grace ⚜️Headmistress Holly ❤️

Before we go into Identity Alchemy, we stop to pause. The first part of P.R.E.P. We have JUST finished five weeks of work. Five weeks of noticing, clearing, feeling, mapping, reading. That is a lot moving through your system. And if you walk straight from that into a four-week identity shift without pausing first, you bring all of it with you unprocessed. The residue sits on top of the signal you spent 5 weeks clearing and distorts it. Therefore, the Pause is not passive. It is THE MOST intentional thing you can do right now. THIS WEEK'S FIRST PRACTICE: 📝Name the one thing you are still carrying from the last five weeks. Not a problem to solve. Not something to analyse or fix before next week. Just something that is still sitting with you; a realisation that has not fully landed, a feeling that has not moved through, a question that is still open, a pattern you named but have not yet released. You do not have to know what to do with it. You just have to be honest that it is there. Drop it below. One sentence is enough. 👇 Naming it is the first act of the Pause. It is how you begin to create space. Identity Alchemy starts next week. This week we prepare for it. 🌿
