Be A Badass

Have you ever felt a connect to a word but weren’t sure why? For me, this word has always been badass.

I use this phrase regularly.  It makes me feel empowered and free.  I always envisioned myself a badass woman who lives her life fearlessly and in her power.  I am finally walking this path…mostly.  Sometimes fear still creeps in but I don’t believe living fearlessly means you are without fear, it just means you still do the things you want regardless of that fear.

I didn’t realize why I was using this phrase and what it really means to me until last week.  I was reading Witch: Unleashed. Untamed. Unapologetic. by Lisa Lister and she talked about being a badass.  In that moment it all clicked for me.  I’ve been a witch my entire life and this word has always been there in my subconscious telling me that I AM A BADASS.

I am a strong woman. I have survived so much fucking pain.  I built walls and buried things because I had to and 2018 was the year, I took down those walls and began truly healing.  Not to get rid of those things, but to accept that they will always be part of who I am. To recognize that I can let go of the survival mentality and truly have a great life.  Fearless, powerful, authentic, and badass!!

This is part of my WHY.  Women embracing the divine feminine energy they were given.  Finding the power in the feminine.  Recognizing that you do not have to continue trying to make it in a patriarchal world.  You weren’t meant to make it in a patriarchal world.  Literally, it was created for men to succeed and women to be kept in their place of submission.

Taking back your power is one of the best forms of rebellion.  Saying I am a woman, I am powerful, and I am here to fucking change the world is beautiful and badass.

Embrace the badass that you are.  Heal your societal wounds.  Understand that you are powerful and your voice matters.
