Don’t worry, I’m not writing to you about setting goals and intentions for 2025. And I’m not sending you a re-cap of 2024.
This newsletter is supposed to help you relax, not stress you out. And looking forward or looking back can be very stressful.
So instead, let’s take some time and be present NOW.
Sometimes our worries look bigger than they actually are when they show up.
And sometimes dragging the past along with us keeps us from appreciating the present.
So lets use this present moment and spend an hour together listening to the rainfall in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷.
This newsletter is called 6 Minute Sabbatical, but the rainfall is 60 minutes of the sounds of the rain in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico. If that’s too long to sit still right now, stop the recording when you want to and come back to it when you want to.
I think I know why the rain sounds are so soothing. Nature is healing.
Many women I know who’ve left America have intentionally or unintentionally reconnected with nature - and I didn’t notice how disconnected I was or how important nature is to us as a collective!
Take Mocha Moizelle for example..
She left America for Jamaica in 2020 and has spent a great deal of time in the majestic Blue Mountains of Jamaica. Mocha had an energetic call to Jamaica and has learned so much about reconnecting with herself and the energy we carry as Black women.
What would the world look like if Black women re-centered themselves and got reconnected who we were before colonialism, slavery and patriarchy came along and shaped our identity?
For Mocha it’s been a liberating experience, and it’s something she’s wanting to introduce and share with us! On January 17, she’s hosting the Leadher Self Workshop - where she helps Black Women relearn about who we are on an energetic level to transform ourselves and create the life we desire!

Check out here latest video where she shares what she manifested this past year, and the energy she cultivated to get there: What I Manifested in 2024 + My Plans for 2025 | Happy New Year! 🥳🎉
(Spoiler alert, it took a lot of staying in the present and understanding energetics 😉)
If you have plans or goals you want to bring into fruition but want to do it the easy way, make the Leadher Self Workshop a priority.
As for me, my goal is to continue to embrace more ease and shape my life the way I like. Let that be your goal as well for 2025 friends.
With love and ease,
