Day 4 of Roxy the Rescue Dog Lulu wakes up to Roxy slinking out of her room. Roxy wants to be near the humans, just doesn’t want them to know it. Lulu feeds Roxy then heads out to fiat mining. Comes home to find Roxy has chewed through Toys Charger Spare Dog collar Slipper Lulu stores this useful intel. After dinner Roxy sidles up to Lulu’s man & allows some head scratches. Contact made! Roxy has officially chosen her human in the pack. Lulu hand feeds Roxy to try and even the score. Winning. #dogrescue #proofofwork

Day 3 of Roxy the Rescue Adventure Lulu gets up to go to work. Roxy cowers under table on hard tiles, avoiding at all costs, the super soft & fluffy blanket Lulu put next to her. Lulu puts Roxy’s breakfast in her bowl. Roxy remains as still as a silent assasin. Lulu goes into her bedroom to put makeup on and do her hair. Roxy gets to work & finishes breakfast in seconds, while humans are out of site. Lulu’s man comes home a few hours later. He lays on a floor mattress. Roxy joins him. Milestone! He adjusts his body to get comfortable and Roxy runs back to her lair, under the table. Lulu gets home from work. Uneventful until Lulu lets Bear the chihuahua out for his bedtime wee. Lulu does not know it yet but Roxy somehow got past her & is now running around outside in the dark. Bear is taking too long for Lulu’s liking. She goes outside to call him in & is shocked to see Roxy running from her in fright. Lulu panics and gives chase. (What NOT to do in this situation.) Luckily Roxy traps herself in a corner & Lulu brings her inside. Roxy and Lulu both go to bed stressed from this altercation. Two steps back. #dogrescuejourney

Day 2 of Roxy the Rescue Adventure Lulu came home from fiat mining. Came home and carried Roxy out to the yard to encourage her bathroom time. It has been 30+ hours since Roxy’s last go & something’s gotta give. Roxy quickly runs away and squeezes past a surfboard Lulu used to try and block her escape, to hide in a corner behind the shed. Roxy 1 Lulu 0 Roxy sits on the cold concrete until Lulu realises no bathroom visits will be occurring. Roxy has the upper hand. Again. Roxy refuses to walk so Lulu carries her back inside the home. Roxy immediately scrambles away into a corner under the table. Roxy has an inbuilt high alert security system. Lulu is patient. Has done this many times before. At bedtime, once Roxy thinks everyone is asleep, she begins the investigation of her surroundings. Roxy is loud, clumsy & keeps Lulu awake. Bear the rescue dog, and Roxy begin to chase each other. The time is 10:20 pm. Then Lulu smells the poo she’s been waiting for. It’s a big clean up. Lulu suddenly recalls why she prefers small dog breeds. She’s happy to do it knowing that Roxy’s digestion system is working A-OK. Lulu sits in the living room to do some light reading before once again hitting the hay. Roxy makes her way over (for the very first time) and steals one of Lulu’s slippers that she had just not a second before, removed. Roxy is stealthy. Lulu says No! Roxy is chastised. Lulu tries to hand her a toy instead. Which Roxy ignores. This is progress. #dogrescue #pow

As Day 1 of our new foster dog Roxy’s arrival, comes to a close, she is still as terrified as when we met this morning. She has eaten a little beef mince and drank some water, only after we all went to bed. I heard her out in the kitchen. I got up just now to carry her outside for a pee as she won’t come on her own. As soon as I put her down on the ground, she ran and hid behind our shed, in the rain on the wet concrete, shaking. She prefers that to the terror of being near me. I feel so sad for her, but cheer myself up, as I tuck her back inside and wrap her in a blanket for the night, with all the wonderful she has yet to come.

Just arrived home with our new foster dog - a female GROODLE named Roxy. She is terrified, vomited in my car on the journey home & i would feel exactly the same way were I in her shoes. Watch this space to follow along & cheer her on as she learns how to be loved! She is from a breeder. Not sure about her first 10 months but I know for sure, the rest of her life is going to shine!!!! Let’s go!!! #rescuedog #fosterfamily #receivinglove

Off to pick up some new foster dogs! My current rescue needs a pack so this is going to be a wonderful surprise for him! Not all dogs need other dog companions but mine does! He’s happiest around other dogs! Did you know that senior dogs in shelters get euthanised at a higher percentage rate even though they are the ones that are most often toilet trained, eat less, do less, and don’t care too much if you’re at work all day and all they get to do is lay on the sofa? Foster or adopt a senior rescue dog today! If feeding cost is an issue, the foster organisation will take care of that for you. You have a lot of love to give! Abundance follows abundant action. Trust that the Heavenly Father WILL provide. Open your doors to need & you will reap the rewards in kind. Positive action ripples forward. #freemarket#abundance #homesforall

I had a little scan on the bridge of my nose for years. It never went away. Was worried it was melanoma. Booked in for a skin check. Before my appointment it disappeared completely. Why? The only thing I’ve done differently is start my day with: 🍋 in water followed by fresh celery juice followed by a fruit & vegetable juice. How incredible! Food heals! #healthtip #juice #skinissues

The hardest thing for me to be in my long term relationship, is the opposite of what I accuse my partner of.

You don’t need a therapist, just a willingness to ask yourself tough questions & someone who has your back. The use case for a therapist or any support person in your life, is to be a sounding board who is non judgemental and will still call you on your shit. We all have blind spots. This needs to be called out every now & again. Preferably they will also have knowledge in areas that you don’t so that they can help you learn new things. Knowledge really can be half the battle. And after years of supporting adults to love and trust themselves, I stand by my belief that the person whose love you need the most is your own & our Heavenly Father’s. From this place I have witnessed miracles of healing and change & I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that faith is all powerful. Do you have a deep faith? If not, why not? This doesn’t mean you can’t, & won’t, still be lonely or afraid or in struggle. It means that you shift HOW you view your struggles & pain, and the information it’s providing you. Praying for support can help shift a situation into a new experience. It can also bring you clarity and peace. We are much more capable of handling life’s bumpy roads with the resiliency a faithful heart than with a confused one. I choose to believe that everything is happening for me, not to me, and I can find my way forward somehow no matter how stuck I feel. You can call this practicing radical responsibility, or the avoidance of being stuck in a victim role long term. Whatever you want to call it, think of it as getting knocked down lots of times, but always bouncing back up eventually. With a mindset like this, we know that nothing is permanent in this life, except change and we have come here to experience this time. We may as well make the most of it. Our hard asset is down. Fear & uncertainty at a high. How will you stay your own course and help regulate your nervous system today & this week? I’m heading for a snorkel in the ocean then baking my kids favourite snack and cooking up some healthy epic meals for my own health journey. It’s the simple actions you do each day that help you stay the course inside yourself, while the world around you flex’s in chaos. We got this.

What wld you want to do with your time if money wasn’t an issue? I want to run an anima rescue on a large scale, on my own land.

When the energy falls away from what we’ve been focusing on… It can feel like a free fall. It feels strange to the mind. There is an adjustment period when we must wait. For clarity. In the meantime, we can pay attention to what may be calling for our attention, time and contribution. It may be an area of our lives that we’ve let fall away- Time with our family or friends; attention to our health; rest… When what we’ve been striving for no longer fits, it’s not defeat, it’s progress. Our mind does not always lead the way. Sometimes things are divinely shifted out of our hands. Having trust in a Higher Power, for me that’s Our Heavenly Father, brings me peace and reminds me I’m not in this alone. I’m supported from above. And sometimes that support moves me in an unexpected way. Let go. And go do something to get out of your head. Action is medicine in times like these.

I’ve gone back to my old roots of fiat mining in retail. This is after decades of working for myself , building and running bricks and mortar wellness centres and running global retreats with my besties. I won’t lie, I’m embarrassed every time someone I know walks into the shop where I’m working. It’s hard. I feel like I look like a failure to others. And despite walking my own walk, making great financial choices as an early adopter and being my own cheerleader, this stings. Sure it’s an honest way to make fiat and pay the bills, but after years of tying my passion to my work as a therapist / educator, this work feels stale. I keep thinking about my next moves & the vision is muddy, like when big winds come up and muddy the visibility while snorkelling in the sea. It makes it hard to see anything. It’s times like these that the strategy I recommend to others and myself is: Practice being ok with not needing to know the whole picture. Just figure out one or two things that are the next things you have energy for. For me, I’m starting a GO FUND ME for someone I admire doing great things in the world, who’s in need of a home. Next, I’ve offered to volunteer my admin skills to a Bitcoin backed organisation, in Australia. I’m also excited to connect with more community members & to soon be chatting with @Paula and attend my local Bitcoin Meetup hosted by my dear mate, after missing them for the past 16 months while travelling with my homeschooling family. One of the hardest things can be getting stuck in our minds yet action will move us forward. One small action at a time. Send that email, DM that person, do that research. It will all move you forward. Grateful to be here in this little corner of nostr.

Fiat debases our LIFE FORCE.

We are walking talking, breathing, eating sponges. We are designed to be soaking up everything around us in an interconnected web of life. And our spirituality is the filter system for our beliefs, harmony protection and support. Filtration systems clear out all the waste and product that we don’t need. We have fitting systems for digestion, our skin , etc. And the filtration system I use for my spiritual health is God, though you may use a different name? We live in a world in which a higher power exists. Einstein called all energy, love. But not everything inside or outside of us is fused or grounded in love. Just like not everything we eat is good for us, not everything we think is good for us, not everything inside or outside of us is healthy for us in spiritual ways either. Using a conscious filtering system to remove, clear & take away all that is not healthy for you is a huge step in advancement. Some use prayer, meditation, affirmation, time spent releasing to God through thoughts, emotions and words. I’ve often spoken to God & felt His response. Especially when I’m out in nature He created. And when I’m feeling scared, lost, confused, lonely, ashamed or defeated, I call out to Him for help. I never want to be without His support. Because life is so hard sometimes. We all get knocked down. He is there with me in my good times & bad. He is the most important relationship in my life. Not sure if anyone reading this needs any inspiration or reminder but if you are feeling broken, defeated, confused or alone - call out to Him. Ask him to direct you, to remove all obstacles from his path for you. Keep leaning in, trusting in Him, and waiting until it all makes sense. He’s got you. I’ve been struggling the last couple months. Health issues - an infected root canal - get yours checked with a 3D cone scan as 99% of them can become infected. I’ve got severe anaemia, have stacked on heaps of weight (again) and sleep apnea issues due to the weight gain. I’ve given up my business because all I want to do is be involved in projects that build on Bitcoin & make our world better while building connections with likeminded people that matter. I’m currently just working casually while I pray & wait for clarity of what God has planned for me next. 😵‍💫 Nothing feels clear or concise but I know how to do this. How to allow the time I need to gain clarity, without rushing in just trying to fill this space with false action. Lord, may you direct me and those reading this post with clarity of action and the ability to see with Your eyes, and think with Your mind. For we are all trying to find our way in this world. Amen

Multi-Millionaire Investor Explains How Billionaires Escape 80% Taxes With Bitcoin

Been visiting some epic places - slow travelling as a family… Swimming with huge sea turtles, watching them return home for mating season, seeing the females build nests in the sand dunes and lay their eggs, to hatch in January. No tours, just a map, some knowledge from helpful locals, and a willingness to put the effort in. We hung out for 4.5 hours, just us and the turtles… Note: That’s a turtle skull my son found in the dunes.

No one has ever said that God has not forgiven them.

My new motto: Stack sats, act broke. Have more money than you show, speak less than you know.

Living on Freedom $ I no longer own a house I feel compelled to spend money on trying to ‘fix it up or repair’. I no longer feel compelled to collect more homewares, decorations and the like. I no longer care about buying better/ nicer/ more luxurious furniture. I simply have much less focus and drive for all these things that played a huge part in my life for decades. It feels surreal. Now I am focusing on getting my true house in order - my health. Like getting in a 2 hour walk in nature & getting as much sun on my skin as possible. Funny how freedom $ evolves us into more of our Highest Good.
