Sisters.. As I write my final words in this way to you as a circle, I thought I had cried out all my tears this morning. Then RayRay sent me such a a beautiful msg and lo and behold, more tears... I wanted to send you an image of what I created this weekend with the little rose heart (that matches my large rose heart already on my altar) amd the msg from the tri fos. It will remain on my altar...as a testimony of love and a gift to my sacred heart... Words cannot describe how beautiful this mornings ritual was. I feel raw and full. You are all such incredible beings. I hope you know that. My life is richer knowing you... Until next time Love Nathalie

Clean Talk Scenario - looking for support
3
Hello Ladies. I have a current scenario with my rental and landlord. I experience lots of anxiety whenever there is conflict between people I care about / respect. (And I respect my landlord) I wrote up clean talk options in the categories that Gretchen presented. (Thank you!). I would value input as to if I am using Clean talk correctly, are there places I could improve the language, have more clarity, etc. I plan to write Carole (landlord) tomorrow or Monday so that I state my data, thoughts, emotions, requests before the conflict changes from her sending me verbal text messages to her taking an action. You can find my brainstorm below in writing. In addition I have attached a document with the same brainstorm. If you have suggestions, feel free to respond or write on the document. (Although it is pdf as I don't have word) Thank you so much for the support so I can improve my communication skills! BRAINSTORM Data 2 days ago, when you asked to remove the double bed for the new massage room rental and replace it with a single bed¡. Assessment My assessment is that the double bed is part of this rental. Emotional Impact I feel afraid because changing the double bed for a single effects the our nighttime routine. I feel angry because changing the double bed for a single effects the our nighttime routine. I feel angry because changing the double bed for a single effects the versatility of how raise our toddler. I feel angry because changing the double bed for a single effects our family. I feel angry because changing the double bed for a single effects the ease and flow of our family routines. I feel angry as because changing the double bed for a single alters our easeful family routines. I feel angry as that bed bring me a lot of joy. I feel angry as I use that bed often with Alaric I feel angry as everyone in this family uses that bed for ease, joy, and versatility. I feel angry as that bed provides, joy, ease, and versatility to our family. Notes There are many reasons why I want that bed. Do I state them all? Remove word easeful? Which word is better afraid / angry? I feel both. Or use both? Is ¡°upset¡± a better word than ¡°angry¡±? Should I use the word ¡°change¡± as opposed to ¡°effect¡± The bed brings joy to our family and me specifically. I like looking at the stars with Alaric or out the window in the morning Request My request is that the double bed remains in this rental for as long as we are the renters. My request is that the double bed remains in this rental until Alaric is completely sleeping independently. Notes Is ¡°expectation¡± better than ¡°request¡±? Conclusion What do you think? Is that possible? Other Potential Data We rented this apartment starting in August and the double bed was here when we moved in. I don¡¯t have a¡°rental agreement¡± as we made a verbal agreement on pricing once air bnb ¡°time¡± ended. No signed lease. ?Policy says¡. Airbnb.?

SSR weekend (part 2 of 3)
This email is Part 2 of 3 (if you haven¡¯t read Part 1 yet, start there please): prep for the Heart-Share Circle space ¡¤ No need to respond, AND please read and reflect at least a few days prior to the weekend At the end is information about the intentionality of the circle time (sent in a previous email also). Please note: We won¡¯t have a formal ¡°lunch break¡± during this circle, so please take care of yourself and have snacks/food available. In preparation, we¡¯re inviting you to reflect on the following questions. It may be helpful to write or journal about your answers. (That was helpful for us, anyway.) Because we have limited time, we think it¡¯s really important to come to the circle on Saturday having considered these. What are your hopes / intentions for this circle time? What would you like for yourself? What are some things you wish people/SSR sisters understood about you in relation to the past two years? Some ideas to think/talk about: What¡¯s been hardest / most painful for you? What has befuddled / confused / perplexed you? What are some emotions that you¡¯ve experienced? What¡¯s been good / the best part for you? There will also be guidelines for the circle that include speaking from our own experiences and not coming in with the intention to fix or change anything or anyone. (More specifics about that on Saturday! ?) CLEAN TALK refresher: Of course, there is no requirement for us to use clean talk during our circle share, but it might be helpful. If you¡¯d like a refresher, Gretchen created an 11-ish min video for us with the basics! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uh7E1y-PXEQ Info about the Circle Share (we sent this in late March): Gretchen introduced the idea of it at our recent check-in call. She called it a ¡°covid convo¡± (which wasn¡¯t accurate, but that¡¯s what came in the moment); RayRay reframed it as an ¡°elephant¡± convo. ¡¤ For our weekend, it will be a HEART-SHARE CIRCLE space (which doesn¡¯t mean it will be all rainbows and roses¡ as we know, heart work can be hard work) ¡¤ Specifically, this time will be an opportunity for all of us to share our truths (and be witnessed by our sisters) about how the last two years have been for us. ¡¤ It will be an opportunity to speak of our own experiences, name any judgments that may have been getting in the way of connection to SSR women and/or others. ¡¤ It will NOT be a conversation but a circle process with the intent to share and witness. ¡¤ From it, each of us can choose (or not) to lay down/let go of/move through/explore/heal whatever may be standing between each of us and whatever kind of connection is wanted with the SSR women. ¡¤ We will move into that space very intentionally, and you will be given additional information as we get closer to the weekend. ¡¤ In the meantime, please know that great care and love is going into the planning of this part of the weekend, especially. We are doing our best to invite everyone in in a way that will work for them and the space. ¡¤ We are asking for curiosity and openness¡ and, again, there will be more info in the coming weeks. ¡¤ If you are noticing anything coming up (fear, excitement, hesitancy, anger, etc. etc.), we invite you to be with those feels and see what you might learn from them. It might even be helpful to take notes. THAT COVERS IT for this part 2 email. Yay! Life Rewards Action! High-five! gretchenkainz.com 850-774-2236 she/her
