Rest is important to me after a lifetime of hustling and running on empty to be the most productive person alive. All to be loved . All to be accepted. All to be successful on somebody else’s terms.
Not anymore. Nine years ago my eyes were forced open to the system. This grind culture. White Supremacy Culture. This only getting your worth from what you do rather than who you be.
No I no longer buy into that crap.
Rest is paramount for me these days as I’ve realised I cannot fulfil all things I want to do in my pursuit of joy and purpose if I do not take my right amount of rest. If I do not stop and smell the roses and {BE}.
This summer I’m taking an extended rest and the Goddess has come visiting as a result.
The Goddess will be showing up this summer because she can. Because she’s ready. Because she has further things to teach me.

Hey Sheree,
I really enjoyed reading the blogpost and the photos of the goddess too. So gorgeous and I can see the courage she inspires. Thanks for sharing.
Would love to know the name of the goddess if you know it.
with warmth, Marcelle

Hi Marcelle Thanks for stopping by and appreciating the Goddess. I bought the Goddess at the beginning of 2016 from https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/StudioLindy?ref=yr_purchases. There wasn’t a name for the Goddess but it was sold as Venus of Willendorf Inspired – Abundance Goddess Fertility Doula Mother Earth. I hope that answers your question and thank you for being here 🙂
