A sacred share + small win
To my Warrior Heart community,
this is me ā coming back with a truth thatās tender, and a win thatās small⦠but mighty.
Over the past season, Iāve stopped and started more times than I can count.
I got sick. I spiraled. I numbed.
Each time I pulled away ā from the work, from this space, from myself ā I felt the weight of shame.
That old belief that if I wasnāt showing up perfectly, I shouldnāt show up at all.
But the truth is ā I was learning something deeper.
That slow is not stuck.
That slow is trust.
That slow is sacred.
In martial arts, thereās a saying:
āSlow is smooth. Smooth is fast.ā
It teaches us that slowing down helps us move with intention, precision, and grace.
It gives us space to meet ourselves where we are ā not where we think we should be.
And as a Barkindji and Ngiyampaa woman, Iāve been remembering that our time is not linear.
It is circular.
Ancestral.
It flows with the rhythms of Country, ceremony, and Spirit ā not productivity charts or performance timelines.
⨠So today, I celebrate this:
One new member joined our Warrior Heart community.
Just one.
But this one soul arrived not because I launched big or pushed hardā¦
They arrived because I was brave enough to begin again.
To honour a pace thatās seeded in trust, truth, and cultural alignment.
This small win holds big meaning ā
Because it represents everything Iāve been reclaiming:
My rhythm.
My capacity.
My relationship with self.
My commitment to building something that doesn't cost my wellness or sovereignty.
So here I am, not sprinting ā but walking with purpose.
Not launching loudly ā but living truthfully.
Not trying to ācome back.ā
But making a ceremonial return ā grounded in who I am, and who Iām becoming.
š¤ To those still here: thank you for holding this space.
š¤ To those arriving now: welcome ā you are seen.
š¤ To those walking your own Warrior Heart journey:
You donāt have to rush.
You just have to keep returning to yourself.
Because sometimes the smallest wins carry the biggest medicine.
