Coming out of the creative closet

So here I am. I know all of you have been wondering things and asking questions to yourself about me..and I have to admit, I do have something to say. I in fact… Am coming out….of my creative closet.  That’s right. I have been hiding from my magnificent imagination and creative ideas for too long and I just can’t pretend anymore. I can’t try and fit into a manufacured, square, conditioned society. I can’t fit into anyone else’s idea of who I am, what I am supposed to look like, act like, dress like, or be.  I’m freeing myself, to be me. The unique immination of the divine spark. The quirky me. My authentic self. The I AM presence within. The Magnificent presence of love that created us all.  I am embracing allll my weirdness, because in that weirdness there is beauty trying to express itself, as me. That my friends, is where we find GOD. I am hoping by living my magnificence through vulnerability, I can inspire others to  understand the magnificence within themselves and shine like the stars that we are.

My name is Julie and over the past few years I have been on a journey. I packed my bags and took off for San Francisco, from Indianapolis IN, in search for truth. My truth.  Who am I really? Why am I here? I came to a place that I realized, do I really have my OWN opinion? Have I really done my OWN research on the things I had always been taught and told, wether it be religious beliefs or political view points? Co-dependant relationships with people had finally gotten the best of me, and left me flat on my face multiple times. Living in victimhood that most people don’t even realize they are living in. I yearned for a new beginning and wanted my power back. So there I was, letting go of everything that brought be comfort, packing my whole life into suitcases and heading off into the world of the unknown. In San Francisco! One of the most eclectic cities in the world!

Fast forward to this point. I am now embarking on a new journey into the unknown. I am finally taking my backpacking trip through Europe! This journey is somewhat like the time I left for San Francisco. I want to see more parts of this amazing universe, the people, philosophy’s, history, theology, spirituality,weirdos…. Everything! This is my first trip to Europe and it took many day dreams and watching Eat Pray Love a million times to finally get here. Visioning.

This blog is for sharing this journey, along with all the things I have learned throughout the past few years. Hang tight it’s going to be different and random, but hey… That’s just me.  My life has been pretty magical and filled with a lot of “Only that would happen to Julie” moments.. Ha!  So this is about Seeing the world through the eye’s of me.  This is my, coming out of the closet story.  My creative, ADD overreactive imagination closet. Co-creating with the universe. So, here goes nothing!

Aloha! and Mahalo for visiting my page. I am a quirky, queer, writer, wannabe musician, wannabe farmer, wannabe painter and a traveling Registered ICU Nurse gone rogue. I am originally from Indianapolis, I grew up in a section eight community in not one of the best neighborhoods, with not a lot of resources. Despite a really long and tumultuous process of growth and becoming a nurse, I was finally able to began Traveling all around the world, learning about ancient practices and diving deep into the heart of different cultures it was there, I developed a passion for creating better education systems for our communities, resources to healthier food, mentors and keeping traditional and cultural practices that have been oppressed. Sparking a deeper connection to the land, the spirit of creativity and the connection to the Great Spirit in each individual uniquely expressing the Divine. Known as "The Blue Healer", I am a nutritional and plant medicine mentor and healer with a goal to assist in bridge the gap between an extremely imbalanced modern machine medicine, and traditional medicine; Supporting each person along their path to better alignment with purpose, passion and regaining power over their lives as well as health. Wanna talk biology, cells and imbalances with science connecting what I am doing? ok! I can geek OUT. I am also an advocate for creating a really healthy space of weirdness, thus allowing other people who come around me, the ability to let their weirdness and authenticity shine brighter than ever. I was named Mahu by a Native American Elder in a ceremony and I have learned and continue to learn many of the indigi practices. Coyote medicine is part of Mahu and Blue healer medicine. What does that mean? Nothing but jokes and laughter through the process of healing. This life is meant to be lived, lets do this together, with a little less rigidity and judgment. I am now in Hawaii learning about the Aina and the Spirit of Aloha and let me tell you... pure magic. Come with me on my journey, to see and understand life from many other perspectives. Mahalo
