But you fear they will doubt you. Criticize you. Shame you. They project, side-eye, and talk shit.
For as long as you can remember, your authenticity - your muchness - has been a problem.
And while you can go it alone and have, itโs lonelyโฆ and all that projection fucking hurts.
The FORTRESS is the sacred place where we get to practice shame alchemyโ turning internalized shame into power and presenceโ as we play, hoot, holler, celebrate & support one another to let life be good inside the soul-walls of a sacred sanctuary, designed to hold you, not confine or change you.
You deserve a space where being fully yourself isnโt riskyโitโs revered.
Welcome to The Fortress.
In The Fortress, we embody unconditional positive regard, celebration, & shamelessness as our group energy.
You donโt have to shrink.
You donโt have to mask.
You donโt have to tiptoe, tame yourself, or care-take anyoneโs comfort.
Your biggest expression is not too much for me. In fact, I delight in it.
In The FORTRESS your radiance will be regarded.
Your intelligence, celebrated.
Your muchness, wanted.
Your tender heart, protected.
Your sparkly self, reflected back.
Your ambition, amplified.
Relate? Youโre not aloneโand in The Fortress, youโll be deeply seen, celebrated, and held.
People come to this work looking for permission to SHINE (and shake their ass)โฆ and through our work together, we discover:
A lifetime of pretending, fixing and trying to fit in was in fact, boring as hell
Their old threat responses had them masking & hiding, trying to protect them from rejection or being shamed - but they are ready to bloom!
Their past healers simply didnโt have the range to hold all their muchness
A highly-sensitive, intuitive & gifted young one, waiting for the inner adult to bring them back to life
A playful, sassy radiance that wants to be celebrated, mirrored in goodness & appreciated
Shame of their fullness, aliveness & power
A tender heart, not wanting to make anyone jealous, feel inferior or less than
Early messaging that their Truth, Essence and True Self was bad, sinful or wrong
They are SICK of hearing from โhealersโ that this work has to be sooooo hard and lonely (Healing can be FUN & you literally cannot do this shit alone).
They are healthier, more well, & further along than their shame wants them to believe
A history of bullying, lack of belonging & pain resulting in lack of boundaries, diminishment & people-pleasing
Repressed anger that their FULL, AUTHENTIC SELF wasnโt welcomed or celebrated
