My book, The Sovereignty Knot, came out in February 2020, just as this novel coronavirus was starting to make headlines. Never could I have expected our world to be tied in such unspeakable knots and to see sovereignty come up so often in conversation.
What if it’s the relentless press to be productive and commodify every free moment that’s the problem? What if it’s the equation of busyness and self-worth? What if we must finally, once and for all, smash the foolish belief that everything is going to feel “normal” again just because we landed on a certain date or reached some artificial milestone?
Once upon the time, I used to use phrases like “world-changing” and “change the world” with wild abandon.
Now, that the world has changed so dramatically in just a matter of months, I realize we need to adjust the way we use such phrases. Instead, we’re called to invest ourselves in the transformative magic of “world-renewing.”
We’ve all left “Normal” and have set off on the Hero’s Journey, entering the great unknown with hopes of coming through on the other side with a sense of renewal and hope.
This post includes a Sovereign Writers Circle writing prompts and ideas for how to meet this move out of the ordinary world we knew before the global pandemic.
As a creative hoping to bring your art into the world there’s always a tension between keeping it light and keeping it real. Do you want to be palatable and easy to digest or do you want to explore the tough, necessary truths?
My online book launch event, Sovereignty When the World Is In Knots: Personal Power & Collective Magic In a Time of Uncertainty promises both. Here’s why that’s so important…
As so many of us attempt to adjust to staying apart from one another to stop the spread of Covid-19, we need Sovereignty more than ever. We need the kind of Sovereignty that supports the strength & resilience of the collective.
The Sovereignty Knot’s three archetypes- the princess, queen, and wise woman - are more essential that ever.
