Stories of healing, boundaries, and becoming. For women told they were too much or not enough here, you are exactly enough. This is not about returning, but reclaiming the wild woman within
sometimes healing looks ridiculous.
sometimes release comes with humor.
this dream was loud, I am finally clearing what kept me from hearing myself.
November 15, 2025 at 9:55 AM
Everything that clogged my intuition.
everything that blocked my inner hearing.
everything I endured quietly
all of it came out in one wild, absurd release.
I turned to check the right ear and woke up laughing. it reminded me of Shrek using earwax to make candles and somehow that felt exactly right.

In the dream I thought “no one would believe me even if I showed them this” it was not about earwax, learned dreams rarely say what they mean literally
it was about the emotional residue i have been carrying, old stories, old pain, old noise I absorbed but never voiced.
November 15, 2025 at 9:55 AM
In the dream, my left ear started dripping, reached in and pulled out wax.
Not a little wax so much of it
kept pulling pulling, was a lot
I stared at the enormous pile and actually got goosebumps.
November 15, 2025 at 9:55 AM
i woke knowing
old structures will not validate me.
old doors are no longer my doors.
my path is shifting ancestral, intuitive, entirely new.

a woman inside one room looked at me with resentment:
“What now,?” another said the VIP room existed
but was not open.
November 13, 2025 at 5:14 AM
He whispered, “Let’s meet at the hotel,” and vanished
i rushed there with the baby and two friends, the mother followed, still resentful.
but we could not find him.
every door stayed shut.
November 13, 2025 at 5:14 AM
He hugged me, he was so tall I could only reach his waist
authority distorted
then I saw his mouth covered with… a pad
the silenced masculine
muted power.
November 13, 2025 at 5:14 AM
A tall man stood and clapped slowly.
“Thank you,” he said.
“You’ve taken me down memory lane.”
it was former Kenyan president Uhuru.
he recognised me

The baby too young to walk started singing a Kamaru song.
a Kikuyu ancestor song
i joined him.
people turned to listen.

free from politeness
free from waiting for safety or permission
free to walk this world clothed in my own light

there is no shame in the running.
there is power in the escape.
there is rebirth at the gate

When I woke, my heart was racing. beneath the was something else a knowing, this dream was not punishment, it was initiation.
the machete was not meant to kill me it was meant to cut me free.
November 12, 2025 at 5:35 AM
I reached the gate and burst onto the road people staring, shocked I did not stop, something in me refused to be prey. even in the dream, i knew this was not about dying it was about remembering myself.
November 12, 2025 at 5:35 AM
One of them picked up a machete. the terror felt ancient the kind women inherit through generations. my body knew; run or die.
So I ran. naked. ashamed. alive.
