Please don't ever fool yourself into thinking that someone else has it all figured out. 🙈 I speak from personal experience and wasted years putting my faith in people I thought knew better than me because the 3x3 squares on their feed sold the prettiest of pretty pictures. I've given my power away more times than I'd like to admit to courses, events and teachers who I thought could "show me the way." But they could only ever show me THEIR way. 😮 And their way is totally awesome, powerful and effective... FOR THEM. Because the only way that will ever be powerful for me is MY way. And the only way that will ever work amazingly for you is YOURS. Get it? That's the secret sauce. No one has it anymore figured out than anyone else. We're all in the same boat riding the waves of life just out here trying to get our shit together, falling off, getting back up and trying again! 🏄🏻‍♀️🌊 The question is: can you trust yourself enough to believe that your way is not only the RIGHT way but it's THE ONLY WAY. ☜ So then you might ask me "But, Alessia, what the hell do I need you for then if you aren't going to give me the answers to all of life's questions?!" Simple: My job is to walk the path with you and guide you back to yourself and YOUR INNATE KNOWING when you get off track. I will hold your hand while you figure things out. I will help you up when you fall. I will love + support you while you figure it out. #forrealthough You can't imagine the power in having someone in your corner who loves and believes in you and who cheers you on every step of the way. I don't have to have everything figured out to help you figure out YOUR path. I don't have to have all the answers to guide you back to your own. Because you've already go it all figured out - you just don't believe you do! I'll help you see that you do. ✨ #wildfreewell #mindsetcoaching #beyourownguru (at Lucca, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnUIM_UqfN1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I am a Low Key Nerd and Naturalist

Nerd is so passé, I prefer 'complex human being'. But what I do know is, I am not apologizing to anyone for anything I wish to post. I ain't got no kids, and my parents is long dead. Last I checked ain't a single person paying one bill up in this house except me, I have no one to be beholden to regarding my activities.

Generally speaking I like to stay away from including nudes on this particular blog since I have posted more than enough of that other places on the internet. But, I feel no need to pretend that if I am going to get the opportunity I am going to celebrate my work before anything else.

Meaning I am mildly excited about iPad iOs 17, which in all actuality only has like really five cool updates, but one of them that I am not sure if its been on the phone for a minute or not, is the changing lock screens.

On my early 2008 Macbook Pro I had my desktop changing like every ten seconds with a bunch of photos from my porn archive which I had on an external drive. I always love to have an electronic device with some changing element. Traditionally on my tablets, and this is my third, I utilize my abstract work as lock and home screens. Usually two different images that will be unique to that specific device.

This Os update now allows me to indulge myself and my body dysmorphia, or put a more public face on my tablet. Albeit I plan on never leaving the house after that damn flu I caught on my daily walks, I think the public face for my tablet will be rarely used.

Another feature which is solely a personal fav is the ability to run more than one timer at a time. Sometimes I am washing something and want it to soak for four hours and during this time I may order some food and need to set a ten minute timer so I can perfectly time getting dressed for the delivery person. Now I can do that!

I also love how they show the countdown on the lock screen. I am going to be honest since I don't have a phone the lock screen was never a big thing to be, but with the tweaks to the clock and the widgets Apple is making it a more welcome place for a bit more creativity and self expression.

I love how they took into consideration the vertical and horizontal orientation that tablet user utilize and made sure the screens could be formatted to the orientation of the device, it took me playing on my second tablet to find the fully tweaks, but I enjoyed the intuitiveness in the design.

Eighteen page PDF, I read the whole thing about all the new features, so many things I don't use like the health app, air pods, Safari, FaceTime or rarely use if at all. I did try out the new iMessage tricks and tried out the new tool bar they have changed out the old one for.

I love how we can do voice notes that are sent with transcriptions. It makes the audio a bit more permanent, since I am sure the transcript can be copied and pasted. But I enjoy sharing my voice with folks so they can get all the nuance of exactly what I am saying and most importantly HOW I am saying it.

Technology and me have always been friends but I think it wise to use it smartly and don't overdo it. My twenty-seven year old nephew has a Macbook Air, AirPods, Apple Watch, iPhone, and iPad. I told the nigga straight up he needs to buy some stock in Apple with him putting so much money in their pocket! #ForRealThough

I have only had like five computers and three tablets:

Mac SE (91 - 97 | returned to Campi)

Apple Powerbook 5300 (96 - 97 | recalled by Apple)

Apple Powerbook 1400c (97 - 01 | still have)

iMac G3 (02 - 09 | lent to Techu, never returned)

Macbook Pro (08 to present)

Tablets

iPad - 16 GB (2008 to present)

iPad Pro - 256 GB (2019 to present)

iPad Pro - 1 TB (2022 to present)

Currently I still use two of my tablets, and now that I have deleted a lot of data I can use my Macbook Pro to take trips down memory lane in the form of old photos, designs, videos and memories. I am a bougie bitch and primarily only deal with Apple. I could have bought a new laptop but my iPad Pro especially with the Apple Magic Keyboard really has all the computing power I need for my current needs.

I did win a FreePC through that advertising scheme years ago, where they gave away "free" Windows computers that had very heavy advertising on them. Anyway my yoga was shot today because I spent the morning on my laptop then got caught up in iOs 17 and that was all she wrote.

Today is supposed to be my regularly scheduled program day and I only got through two episodes of Killing Eve. Anyhow let me attempt to watch my shows, albeit I am excited I have a new distraction that is creating great content for my mini-blog and allowing me to reconnect with some folks who I am sharing what I find.

Is it weird to think about the fact that your big toe is basically like your thumb, but it feels like your index finger
