The Scene: The Aftermath of Creative Awakening

The grand finale of this 8-week series. 

In addition to my regular students, I'd invited two of my classmates from my Beginner Painting class at the center. We'd separately had interesting conversations about art, artistry, and the cosmos, and I thought it'd be a fun challenge to both wrap up my students' learning arc while keeping the topic comprehensible to brand-new students :). 

First, I asked everyone to identify a recent artist's date, a final closing ritual to remind them to always think about how they were living their lives in art.

Before I got into the spice of the class though, I revisited a concept from our previous class on the third eye: the concept of gravity and gravitas.

I wanted to expand that gravity for the sake of gravity could also be disruptive, and use the concept of a soul star (conscious) and a black hole (unconscious) to depict two sizeable forces that differ on the way they disrupt the gravity and path of others.

It was important to create inner alignment and the magnetism that goes along with that, but it was also important to keep the ego in check so that our gravity did not dictate everyone else's path too — against their will. The goal is sacred liberation not domination.

The Wisdom: The Application of Queen Mindset Leadership™ 

For this class, we focused more on naming the core concepts we'd discussed throughout the series so that my students could have language to continue their deconstruction. All along, I was teaching along with the Queen Mindset Leadership™ philosophy, but now I was naming it. Because my students vary in gender and sexual identities, I kicked our session off by highlighting that this leadership was created for all humans. In addition, Queen Mindset Leadership™:

• Centers Creative Expansion
• Embeds Ancestors, Cosmos, and Embodiment
• Uses Chakras as the Channel of Activation
• Results in ancestral businesses, artistic liberation, and community equity.

1. The 3 Pillars of Queen Mindset Leadership™: These represent the pillars we'd been covering throughout class.

Creative Identity: The Essence of Self & Creation (Root, Sacral, Solar Plexus Chakras).

• This pillar is about deconstructing and reclaiming identity across all facets of being / koshas—physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and energetic. 
• It involves deep introspection and awareness of how identity has been shaped by personal experiences, cultural narratives, and societal structures. 
• It helps you root your creative power in your lived essence.

Creative Energy: Harmonic Flow & Intuitive Power (Heart, Throat, Third Eye Chakras)

• This pillar acknowledges the cyclical, fluid nature of creative energy that flows through life and connects us to ancestral, natural, and cosmic rhythms. 
• It honors the wisdom of cycles and integrates them into creation.

Creative Sovereignty: Mastery of Aligned Expansion & Legacy (Crown Chakra).

• This pillar is the culmination of your creative sovereignty journey. 
• It’s where vision meets aligned action, where artistic and business expansion intertwine, and where your influence expands with integrity. 
• This is where you claim your throne and architect your high frequency reality.

2. The Balance of Masculine and Feminine Energy. Now that we'd gone over chakra and covered the 5 koshas at length, I wanted them to see how they could harness the energy of each body and each chakra to create a sacredly balanced leadership.

• Feminine energy (when natural & crowned): This energy is reclaimed as sacred power rather than something passive or secondary.
• Queen Mindset Leadership™ encourages:
  • Intuitive Strategy – Listening deeply before acting.
  • Emotional Wisdom – Using emotions as information for leadership and alignment.
  • Flow + Surrender – Allowing cycles, rest, and alignment to guide creation and business.
  • Creativity & Sensuality – Harnessing these as sources of innovation and magnetism.
  • Nurturing Leadership – Building businesses and communities with compassion, not burnout.Queen Mindset Leadership™ encourages:  

Queen Mindset Leadership™ helps heal the wounded feminine by breaking patterns of victimhood, co-dependency, and over-emotionality with practices of boundaries, power reclamation, and embodiment.

• Masculine energy (when natural & grounded): Rather than rejecting masculine traits, Queen Mindset Leadership™ redefines them through sovereignty:
  
  • Aligned Action – Doing from a place of purpose, not pressure.
  • Clarity + Boundaries – Honoring capacity and protecting energy.
  • Discipline with Devotion – Creating consistency without hustle culture.
  • Direction Rooted in Vision – Strategy that emerges from soul-aligned purpose.

Queen Mindset Leadership™ offers a path to heal the wounded masculine by helping humans release over-control, rigidity, or aggression as coping mechanisms, and instead embrace divine direction, certainty, and supportive structure.

• Queen Energy = Integrated Energy: Queen Mindset Leadership™ teaches that instead of picking sides, you integrate:
  • The radiance of the feminine with the backbone of the masculine.
  • Stillness and surrender with clarity and confident decision-making.
  • Creative sovereignty where intuition and strategy co-create. 

3. 7 Embodied Liberation Principles: This was a powerful share, introducing the seven embodied liberation principles that are the living, breathing responses to the seven questions that catalyzed Queen Mindset Leadership™. Each principle offers an energetic, embodied response to the deeper intellectual and emotional questions that arose from my existential inquiries in readings, therapy, and inner search. Below is a precise mapping of how they reflect, resolve, or transform the questions through my body of work:

Existential Question #1: “What does it mean to create success on my own terms?”

• This principle affirms that your true identity is not a performance—it’s a transmission.

Embodied Liberation Principle #1: Ancestral Wisdom is a Creative Force

• Rooted in lineage and expressed through embodied energy.

Existential Question #2: “How do I build intimacy with myself outside of traditional milestones?”

• In learning to feel and celebrate your body’s cycles, desires, and rhythms, you redefine intimacy as an inner experience, not a social milestone.

Embodied Liberation Principle #2: The Body is a Portal

• Physical and emotional liberation through embodiment.

Existential Question #3: “How do I heal the parts of me that success couldn’t?”

• You realize that healing isn’t an endpoint but a practice.

Embodied Liberation Principle #3: Liberation is a Life Practice

• Ongoing alignment in voice, leadership, and boundaries.

Existential Question #4: “How do I lead and live without betraying myself?”

• By walking through your grief, you access new emotional intelligence and deepen your leadership capacity.

Embodied Liberation Principle #4: Grief is a Portal to Power

• Emotional alchemy is central to Queen Mindset Leadership™.

Existential Question #5: “What does community mean when I’ve outgrown old identities?”

• Leadership becomes less about being above and more about rising with. Your sovereignty becomes relational, not isolating.

Embodied Liberation Principle #5: Sovereignty is Communal

• Leading with others, not above them; integration of individuality and collective care.

Existential Question #6:  “What parts of my family, lineage, and culture do I honor—and which do I reimagine?”

• Instead of forcing outcomes, you begin to co-create with universal laws—leading from vision and vibration rather than just hustle.

Embodied Liberation Principle #6: Quantum Consciousness is Feminine Wisdom

• Expanding intuitive leadership through quantum field awareness.

Existential Question #7: “Who am I without the roles others have assigned to me?”

• Ancestors became co-creators, not just ghosts. Through you, they get to evolve—and you do too.

Embodied Liberation Principle #7: Channeling is Sacred Creativity

• Divine alignment fuels creative sovereignty.

The Embodiment: How to Integrate this Work

After all the instruction was done, I gifted each of my students with their own Certificate of Completion as well as a mini booklet on Creative Awakening with the information in this blog. Everyone gave a heartfelt overview of their experience, and lots of hugs and hesitant goodbyes flooded us.  

Thank you for sticking around for round 2 of the Creative Awakening Series at the Creative Arts Center (Dallas, TX).

It's been an absolute joy to facilitate and document this learning expansion. 

But wait, there's more! The next series of the Creative Awakening will be a three-part workshop in July, where I will experiment on my keynote speech: The Throne Is Yours: Soul-Stability in the Face of the Unknown. I will lead you through the journey of how to architect and follow your own unique path in life, and what creativity has to do with it. Come join!

You can also catch more of me on my blog, on LinkedIn as I slay slam poetry about how I'm disruptive, my Instagram where I post about the embodiment of Queen Mindset Leadership™, and my Cosmic Love Letters newsletter where I drop the invites, the wins, and the additions to the Queendom. 

Thank you to my students who showed up, showed out, and allowed me to transmit this ancestral wisdom. Ya'll are forever etched into my fabric of timespace <3.

Dra. G out!
