  • Leah: The pottery barn Wizardess who saved Herself
    Sep 11 2022

    Dear Listener,

    I remember meeting Leah for the first time. She had, and still has, an ethereal quality. I remember thinking of her as willowy. Like she could billow away like fairy dust. Physically, she is lovely. I always imagine that people that are physically attractive are met with this at a full stop. She is lovely….and….there is so much more.

    She is a graphic artist, extremely talented as an artist. She is loving, a friend that cares and asks authentically. She is open and brave. So very brave. She is also funny, warm, and very observant.

    When I first started getting to know Leah, it was clear very quickly that she was not safe. I remember conversations in which she would share something small about her relationship, and it would sound my internal alarms. I remember wondering if she came across as ethereal and willowy because she was not safe. As if she was trying to take up less space, appear less than to avoid harm. I cannot answer this. I know I have been unsafe in my own life and can relate to that thought, that feeling.

    Leah shares the smallest pieces of a few paragraphs in her life with me and you. She is safe now. She is making steps forward to heal.

    This session could be cueing for you. Take care of yourself first. 

    I will not use any common terminology for what Leah has experienced, for she is not to be labeled as anything other than the pottery barn Wizardess who saved Herself. The bravest act of all.

    Warmly,

    Aisha
