Moving Through Difficult Times Together

Dear friends,

I had prepared a thought-out letter for you all with insights for adding more ease and joy to our work, but it didn’t feel right to send it today. 

Like many of you, I’m still processing the Supreme Court leak and what it could mean for women and our rights in the US.

I can feel the collective fear, anger, disappointment, and frustration.

I’m really struggling to find comforting words to offer at this time and I realized, that is okay.

Sometimes life is about learning to acknowledge and sit through all the pain and discomfort we feel. Sometimes the road ahead is not clear and it can feel scary. That is okay too.

We can hold ourselves and hold each other through these times. 

We can choose to breathe and move through the pain and discomfort, one moment at a time. 

We can remember that everything in life is impermanent and we are powerful agents of change.

We can trust that no matter what happens, we will value and support ourselves and each other. We will recharge, rebuild, and come back stronger than ever.

Please know that you are not alone. I’m breathing with you… If it would help, you are welcome to write to me (simply reply to this email) and share how you are feeling. I’m here and I will make sure to respond to you – directly and privately.

If you are looking for a simple guide to help you better support the women in your life during this time, please feel free to review the letter I wrote a couple of weeks ago. You can find it here and I hope it helps.

We will get through this struggle together. 

One breath, one moment, and one day at a time.

Sending you all so much love,

Maliheh
