📨 Friday Report XXXVI — 9.10.21

Happy Friday familia!​

What. a. week?

I feel like so many people in my life are going through it right now. And I don’t think that’s a coincidence.

Especially for us empaths. The world is crazy right now and it’s hard not to feel it. Also — don’t you feel like 9/11 remembrance stuff has been shoved down our throats the past couple of weeks? Like damn, we were there.

Any who — if you’re going through it right now, allow yourself to go through it. I say that from experience.

If you don’t feel whatever you need to feel now, you’re going to be forced to feel it later. And it won’t be pretty.

Para mi, mentally I’m fantastic, but physically, I’m still a zombie. I don’t resist this zombie state though. I fight every overachieving bone in my body and surrender to the rest. Practicing what I preach has never been so glorious.

My favorite part is that I’m in minimal contact with the outside world. It’s the respite of my dreams. Other than last year’s No Work September, anyway.

Before you put your phone on Do Not Disturb…​

Let’s dive in!

• I hope the person who was in charge of changing Amaerican kitchens feels my wrath because wtf?! Why did we stop this kind of design.​
• ​An ode to my guy friends. Love you guys, forreal.
• Next time you need a laugh, look at the quote tweets on this thread. 😭
• The innovation is astounding. Homie maed a one-man runway show using nothing but a phone and a parking lot. 🔥
• My greatest takeaway this week is that, judging by the response to this video, millennials are really going through it.
• ​Twitter is launching communities based on shared interests and this is literally the only thing that’s been missing for me from the greatest social media app to ever do it.​

What’s up with me?

• That apartment I got for a month? The bathroom flooded every time it rained…and it’s the start of rainy season. They knew they were shady for having me sign that lease so I got my money back and moved to a cozy studio that I absolutely love. #soblessed
• As I write this, I’m watching LuLaRich on Amazon Prime. It’s a doc that just dropped about the scam that was LuLaRoe. I live for a scam story!
• I’m winding down on this intense cleanse and I can’t wait to share my experience. It’s changed my life. I originally saw it as a reset; now I see it as a level up.
• This is the last week of bootcamp and I’m so proud of myself for attracting such beautiful people. Bootcamp started as a professional program and it’s transformed into an…“all the things” program. Whatever that means.
• Whenever people ask me what my favorite hobby is, I never have an answer…until now. I’ve realized that self care is my favorite hobby. Mani pedi Tuesday, massage today, facial and eyebrow tinting tomorrow. If I don’t look good, I don’t feel good. And if I don’t feel good, I ain’t good. Feel me?​

Track of the Week

IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT! Chlöe dropped Have Mercy and LAWD! I’m entirely here for all of it. I hope it makes a lot of salty people saltier. I’m not even gonna link the track because you have to watch the video on…

• Life Maed Easy’s 1 year anniversary is this Wednesday — ahh! I dreamt of having a day of events to celebrate, but that will have to wait until December. My energy is minimal right now and mostly spent meal prepping and washing dishes.

I’m off to lay butt ass naked in bed watching this LuLaRoe documentary like my life depends on it. And you already know a joint is my Friday Report reward! 🌬️

I feel soooo thankful to be here and to be me. I feel so protected and proud of myself for where I am in my life. I genuinely love the people in my life. I love where I live. I love how I walk. And I love my resilient ass body.

It’s so easy to focus on what’s next, but I can’t disrespect my manifestation powers by ignoring all that I have now.

And neither can you.

Stay thankful,
Maegan
