~ Hello my fam! ~

I’m looking for TEN WOMEN who are:
Professionals
Millennials ish - 30’s-40’s
Who had to be the strong, stable ones growing up.
And who have created some success for yourself.
But now, there’s a deeper version of you trying to break through. 🪽

You’ve done a lot of the personal development work, and it worked!
But - you know it won’t get you to this next level of your life & your becoming.

Your deepest desires??🔥💦

You want flow.
You want to access your magnetism.
You want complete and utter trust in yourself.
You want creative courage (in your art, in your work, in your relations, in your LIFE.)
You want to open deeper & step into your authentic (& unique) feminine expression.
You want to touch your deeper sensual aliveness vs your performative patterns.
You want to stay in your own sacred steady center, even when the ways of the world swirl around you.

❌You do not want to be “taught” or memorize healing modalities.
🤤You want to be held in the messy, muddy, middle of your expansion, and shown a new way.

I WANT TO TALK TO YOU 📣

I’m creating the 🌀perfect program🌀 for you, but in order to actually make it the best on the market & guarantee that it’s highly valuable, I want to INTERVIEW the women who resonate with this!!

I’m not selling you or pitching you ANYTHING.
I simply want to better understand your perspective & experience.

In exchange for letting me interview you, I’m offering a free 1:1 somatic coaching session with me, for your time 🐚🤎

Dm me: ME
If you want to help your girl out!

Hi!
I’m Ray 🤎

Here’s a snap shot into my world, my journey, and why I’m doing what I’m doing.

If you’re a woman who’s learned to perform, “get it right,” and strategize your way through life, and now you’re looking for something deeper, something more sustainable and more fulfilling….

You’ve found your corner of the internet. 🌎

I created The Deeper Current Ecosystem for you. For us.

Dm me: DEEPER

I’ll send you a voice note with the ways we can connect and weave together, and how you can go from braced & tense, to open again.

I’m so glad you are here. by @raytaaffe

I don’t know a single woman in my social group or within my clientele that doesn’t want to soften more.

Take a deep fu€king breath.

Feel more of her aliveness.
Feel more of her erotic nature.
Feel more of her womanhood.

But she feels like she can’t.

Because if she softens, the ball will drop and everything will go to shit.

Or because her body quite literally doesn’t know how.

Because she’s spent so long holding everything.

The job.
The relationship.
The family.
The future.
The decisions.
The fear of whether where she is right now is even right.

And then all the shit from the past.

The relationship that took a negative turn.
The dynamics in her family of origin.
The career pivot that knocked her on her ass.
The thousand tiny moments she felt misunderstood, shamed, left out, too much, not enough.

We’re holding a lot.

And eventually all that holding becomes a body that is holding, too.

Tightening.
Bracing.
Controlling.
Overthinking.
Looping.
Criticizing.
Stressing.
Forcing.
Pushing through.

Trying so fu€king hard to keep ourselves safe that we’re restricting the very 💦life force💦 we’re desperate to feel again.

We can therapize ourself all day long,
But more conceptual information alone, often doesn’t change the way we actually feel in our body day to day.

A new reference point does
A new way of relating to yourself, your body & your emotions does
Deeply intimate support does

That’s why I’m creating
~ OPEN BODY ~

An accessible, self guided journey back into your openness, your softness, your aliveness.
With the option of a private 1:1 support track

….Coming soon

When we learn, and trust ourself enough, to OPEN deeper to life vs push through or perform;

Life opens back up to us in ways we often can’t even imagine.

(we can’t receive more, when we’re clenched up trying desperately to prevent that which we don’t prefer)

I’m working on a new experience for you that will help you do exactly this.

Opening beyond the protective patterns
Opening beyond the ways you were taught to perform & perfect
Opening beyond your fear
Opening beyond the distractions & pushing through
Opening into (and being able to hold) deeper closeness, connectivity, safety & deeply embodied pleasure

Coming soon 🤎

If you’re a woman who knows how to push through & get shit done…

My love,
Your life is asking you to try something different. And you likely have been feeling it.

It is begging you to open.
I mean radically, vulnerably, beyond all of your self protection…. Open.

You’ve probably learned to
analyze
think it through
anticipate
gauge
shove it down
distract
test the waters
shape-shift
perform
hold it all together
keep it close
control
grip
not let it show

And maybe you feel the pain it’s caused you.
Maybe you haven’t yet.

But all of those ways we self protect,
Eventually become chains quite literally choking out our freedom.

Hands gripped around our throat keeping our breath short & shallow.

Pressure holding us down, & we’re either about to pop, or slowly fading away.

And here’s what I want to be really direct about-

You either consciously choose, “I want to break open & be free”

Or

Life chooses for you in a way that forces you into surrender, that is often not pleasant, preferred, or convenient.

And for us lucky ones, sometimes both happen ;) lol

I’m sureee you can feel the pressure.

The way you over think to try & figure it all out.
The way you tense & tighten up when something un preferred occurs.
The way you HAVE to get it right & it feels like life or death.
The way your body hurts.
The way you feel like your spark has faded.
The way you feel like there’s gotta fu€king be more.

If you can learn, & trust yourself, to OPEN
Instead of falling into those old protective patterns ^^^

💦You’ll find that even the most painful emotion, actually gets room to breathe & doesn’t take over you. (promise)

💦You’ll find that thing that’s been all consuming suddenly reveals itself in vividly clarity.

💦You’ll find your radiance return, effortlessly.

Our job as modern women (with ancient souls)
Is to resist the temptation to self protect & control
And instead
Open even wider than we thought possible

To god
To ourself
To life
To the fluid waters of deep, deep, embodied trust

Make room, instead of kinking the hose.

I’ve been slowly working on a beautiful new experience to help you do just this.

How it be lately 🌀🐚 by @raytaaffe

Because when we’re in the hard moments and in the hard seasons, we tend to focus on everything that’s making us miserable.
Everything that we want to change.

We forget to focus on the reality, that change is inevitable.
We forget to focus on the way that we want to FEEL.
On what we WANT to experience.
On what we DO desire.

When we’re in those especially hard seasons, Wondering if “this is just how life is now”
We can’t ONLY focus on what we no longer want to feel and what’s agonizing us.

We have to consciously breathe in (even through the ouch) and OPEN our body to the energy, the feelings, the closeness, the joy, the felt sense of all that we WANT, to bring into our life, all that we WANT to become.

(where our arrow is pointed is what we’ll land on. aim wisely) 🏹

There’s a nuanced dance between

❌ not bypassing your current reality.
Coming face-to-face with it, and transmuting what needs to be healed

BUT ALSO

✅ breaking the feedback loop of obsessing over what we wish to change, and therefore only focusing on the things we wish to change, and attracting more things we wish to change.

THE WAY?

🟰Remembering change is inevitable. (yay)
~ Opening our body to the felt sense of our desire, not just wrapping our mind around what we want to change.
~ Supporting our nervous system so it doesn’t push away that unfamiliar, yet very much desired change.
~Syncing up our mind, our nervous system, and our innate femmine desire (our god given road map) allllll up to the same rythym; and then allowing the changes to unfold within us.
~ Softening around our desires vs kinking the hose

As women, we are powerful creators.
Therefore we must, both aim our intention well AND be able to open our body to receive.

And that second part ^^^ is nottttt talked about or taught enough.

🌀🌀And that’s what I’ll be guiding you through in my new class! 🌀🌀

How to actually OPEN to life,
When all you’ve learned is how to push through.

There’s a feed back loop happening that’s a big part of why you feel disconnected, like you can’t trust your body, & deeply craving more.

We’ve already been disconnected from our bodies for way too long.

The fact that a woman being expressive, embodied, & sensual is still a trigger to most humans - shows us how disconnected we really are.
From our body.
From the earth.
From god.
From life.

And then
We’ve started relying so heavily on technology & AI, calling it advancements, when it’s just another way women are being programmed to outsource their own knowing. Their own truth.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐩:

>We’re already disconnected
>We’re then programmed to outsource our knowing
>We then trust ourself even less

𝐌𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧 is that you stop feeling like you’re behind or missing something if you listen to your body. Trust your body.
The first time.

And to do that
We need you feeling again.
All of it.

~Feeling the grief that swells up when you face that a relationship might be ending

~Feeling the rage that takes over you momentarily, but then helps you create the boundaries & values you’ll pass on

~Feeling the full body yes. The yes that has your pu$$y saying “THIS IS FOR US!!”
And not doubting it.

~Feeling the awe. The openness & freedom in your body to cry at the sunset. Or the perfect shade of blue water. Or the baby deer. Or a moment of unexpected kindness. Or another breath.

~Feeling the sensual, sacred pulse of life.
The wind on your skin, letting it unravel your entire body.
Honoring the turn on that arises when that one song comes on & your neck wants to open, your hips can’t help but spread, & your body wants to move in a way that IS your essence.
𝐔𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝.

The more we feel in all of the ways,
The more our body starts to communicate with us more clearly because trust has been built & it knows we’re listening.

The more our body can communicate with us

You’re allowed to feel at home in your skin

Like each inhale & exhales is a gift just for you.

Because it is.

You’re allowed to take up space as you move your vessel through this world.

You don’t have to be as easy, as out of the way, as convenient, as small, as likable, as possible.

It’s ok if people feel your thunder and your light.
Actually, it’s medicine for this world.

It’s ok if you stand tall & confident in your gifts.

And it’s ok if in the same day you dissolve into nothingness & need to be held when you can’t hold yourself.

You’re allowed to deeply love, and rest in, the skin and bones wrapped around your soul.

We need you to.

𝘞𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯’𝘵 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘳 𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯.

You’re allowed to relax your jaw and let your mouth fall open.

Receive life on your tongue and in your effortless breath.

You’re allowed to move and arch and sway your spine as you quite literally feel life moving through your body

You’re allowed to honestly, authentically, wildly interact with life back
In all of the natural, mysterious, sensual ways of the woman 🌀
