The 9 Service Languages | Intensive Session Wrap Up Thoughts

-
On Sunday, I wrapped up my first small group FULL INTENSIVE workshop that spanned 6+ hours over the course of 2 days. Anyone who has sat through my Intro class knows, The 9 Service Languages is a fucking BIG IDEA! When I first launched my class, I naively believed it could be tackled in a typical 90-minute or 2-hour session. I quickly learned that was impossible and that few platforms (cons, orgs, mtgs) had the ability to hold space for me and attendees to get DEEP in the weeds of WIITWD as it relates to Service. I am PROFOUNDLY HONORED that @S-O-C—the Service Oriented Conference—reached out to me earlier this year to be a part of their inaugural Intensive Program. They were the perfect partner with the perfect target audience for an Intensive of The 9 Service Languages of Authority Transfer Relationships/Dynamics. The session allowed me to work with a small group as we got our hands dirty, dissecting where, when, how, and why we do Service and considered ways to adjust, tweak, evol...

Head-Heart-Soul Shift

-
Not in a good headspace. Too much. Too little. The negative has seeped in and is starting to drag me under. No one can shift it but me. Time for some gratitude and change in perspective.
I am so very grateful for…
  • My health.
  • My family.
  • My lil leather & kink tribe.
  • My Board of Directors who advise me from their thoughtful outside perspective on all things vanilla and Lifestyle.
  • The opportunities of service I’ve had in the last two years with ONYX Pearls NY-NE and with Leather Solidarity Collective.
  • The vast myriad of discussions I’ve had in my own Lifestyle groups as well as other organizations.
  • The treasure trove of books by Lifestyle Authors with their wealth of knowledge and ideas.
  • The amazing, kind, brilliant people I work with M-F.
  • The profoundly beautiful and life altering experiences I’ve had in meditation the last 8 months.
  • My occasional ability to help those in need.
  • The opportunities I have to share my lil bits of wisdom I sometimes manifest.
  • The phenomenal resilience of NYC.
  • My ability to be out to my family about my Lifestyle involvement.
  • Zoom for keeping us all connected and connecting MORE of us.
  • Fet which served as a Lifestyle entry point for many of us over the years.
  • For the many event producers, support teams, leaders, presenters, and volunteers who give so much time, energy, sweat, and even tears to educate the kinky and leather masses.
There…that’s better. My head, heart, and soul are back above water.

You may not always see it, but you can make a difference in the lives of others both BIG and small. Thank you to everyone who has contributed in my direction.

The Compersion of An Unruly Whore

-
It didn't matter that my whore had been in time-out, curled in a ball, mute, and non-responsive for two months. It didn't matter that I had no way of managing her urges and cravings, so I'd shoved her in a cage with multiple padlocks and starved her dumb ass. It didn't matter that I didn't trust her to meet expectation or control her aggressiveness.  It didn't matter that He'd shown no need for her shenanigans.  As He kissed me good-bye and shut the door of the truck, my whore woke with a vengence—wide-eyed and panting—from her self-imposed retreat, howling in her cage, begging to be released from confinement. My fingers trembled, and I tightened my grip on the steering wheel, trying in vain to focus on my next stop and the list of tasks I needed to complete.  Though absolute pure joy flowed through me at the thought of His pleasure and happiness, I fought the unexpected tsunami of electric sexual energy that roared in my veins.   I couldn’t catch my breath....

My Truth

-
I've bottomed to Tops, but no one has ever truly seen me surrender or submit.  Whatever glimpse they may have seen of something...it was/is nothing compared to how I instinctively respond to THAT beautiful, sexy Man.  With Him...I surrender and submit with everything I am and everything I wish I could be.  Under, guiding, grounding all of my practical personalities and acts of service, the Truth is... The very sight of Him can bring me to tears.   The smell of Him grounds and eases my spirit. His voice, my compass to bring me Home. His touch effortlessly reaches in and can either settle or shakes the depths of my soul. The taste of Him is my Redemption. To have Him fill me, take me, claim me is my Ascension to Divine transformation. My Truth is... I fuckin Worship That Man. The ground He walks on. The very air He breathes.   My surrender to Him, His will, His needs, His comfort, His well-being are my True North.   I am simply His Lioness, Alf...
