Hola lovely friend,
This week went really quickly as I prepared to visit Immigration and account for my visa overstay in preparation to visit Austin.
Lemme tell you, it was not easy. Got grilled, like third-degree questioning. Not fun. But I’ve paid my hefty fine and am cleared to leave. There was no mercy for getting stuck in a foreign country during a pandemic.
It was so busy there. So many Nicaraguans are applying for exit visas and getting passports to immigrate to the U.S.
Someday when I’m complete with this adventure and safe in Oaxaca, I will share what life is like for these beautiful, brave people and why they are as desperate to leave as we are. It’s wrapped up in uprisings, climate chaos, and somewhat the tragic happenings in Eastern Europe. I’m itching to share their stories.
If all goes as planned, I will be able to return to my family next week and prepare to fly out 5/21 with my cat. And my partner and fur babies will leave at the end of May.
Fingers crossed I will be allowed reentry after my trip to Austin for Feel Good Money Live with Megan Hale and some amazing presenters.
As I’ve been coaching clients on their arc of offerings to be in alignment with their seat of abundance in their astrological and Human Design blueprints, I’ve also been feeling into my offerings, especially names.
One of my clients recently wrote about the shifts she’s been making to center rest and referred to my work as Radical Rest. 😍 This is THE work of Decolonizing Time, of which we’re a part of the larger movement.
So, I’ve renamed my May 7th retreat to hold this realignment: that the names of my offerings are connected to my Jupiter in Gate 34 which is all about the strength and majesty of dwelling in rest, like the archetype of the Black Panther depicted on 64 Doors website.
Do you know your Jupiter placements and how it relates to your abundance and creative potential? We can explore that in a Stellar Session (a few more 2-for-1 sessions available here).

Book LoveThe Devil’s Dictionary
Steven Kotler is my Flow and Writing Mentor. And he’s written a sequel novel. Known mostly for writing about the neuroscience of Flow, he’s exploring story now. And I love the way her merges his love of science-fiction, cross-species empathy and cyberpunk.
He recently held a gathering to chat about his new book and gave me a shout out for highlighting the importance of protecting land for life and how important it is for Indigenous peoples the world over to continue the stewardship to prevent further extinction events. (Remember decolonizing centers land back or it’s not actually decolonizing).
Steven is an animal protector and sees mega-linkages of land as vital to movement of vulnerable populations of beings. This book is about how empathy is essential to our current predicaments. And story is such a great way to help people make those connections.
For me it’s a good reminder of my own work to help you connect and relate with the world around you and with Time so you can bring forth your creative potential. Truly grateful for this human and his writing.
The 2-for-1 Stellar Strategy Sessions includes the Radical Rest Retreat…
“We flowed naturally into conversation with a range of topics, and I noticed afterward that my nervous system felt at ease. I felt still and slow in a new and fabulous way. Of course our discussion was magic, AND, it was a relief to feel that ease lingering afterwards. Ixchel obviously has lots of scientific as well as ancestral knowledge and I’m excited to keep going.”

Your Sanctuary to Cultivate Wild Presence for Thriving with a Planet in Transition
I was raised and bore children on the traditional, unceded, and stolen lands of the Coast and Central Valley Miwok (colonized as Petaluma, CA) and Nisenan (colonized as Sacramento and Fair Oaks, CA), past, present, and future. I also write, work, and live in the highland forest of the traditional, unceded and stolen lands of the Totonac, Nahua, and Mexicah, past, present, and future, in what is known as Coatepec, Veracruz, Mexico.
P.P.S. I do not live or consent to the colonial impositions regarding the construct of Time. I also practice honoring rhythms of work, play, and rest so that I can serve you with embodied presence and with loving care. This means I may take several days to respond to your requests and questions. (h/t Eva Glamaris)
