Transcendfit Health and Wellness

Had to repost this recap of .usa 16th Championship Tournament from my POV because my phone uploaded dysfunctionally. So... here we go again (if you already saw it earlier, now it has sound).

We only had representing for amongst the competitors this year, and she did a fantastic job taking home 🥇🥈 (in long hand form and long weapons, respectively). This was the 2nd tournament that she participated in and can now factually state that in the last two years, has collected two 🥇 and one 🥈

Since 2022, when I first competed for myself and to honor the lineage I continue to practice, our competitors have taken home:

5 x 🥇
4 x 🥈
5 x 🥉

Not bad for a tiny group of folks who choose to uphold this tradition.

Special thanks to Sifu and Sibak , Sihing for your willingness to share your knowledge and experience, as well as for the support and watchful eyes. Additional shouts to Coach .bafafit and Eddie for your continued support as well.

This art holds and continues to hold a special place in my heart for the foundational aspects of martial arts that it builds, as well as its artistic beauty, amongst the practical aspects it provides.

Let's continue to keep it alive.

Day 10 🎙️

I'll be real — life triaged this challenge for me. Family and real life things first. Always.

But that's actually Principle 1 in action: everything starts with you. Don't want a sh*tty world? Don't make one.

Here are the 5 principles everything I'm building hangs on 👇🏽

1️⃣ Everything starts with you. Be the change. For real.

2️⃣ You cannot perform your way to wholeness. If you ain't feeling it, it isn't real.

3️⃣ Your code is original. Stop running someone else's program — absorb what's useful, make it your own.

4️⃣ The container determines the outcome. Environment is architecture, not backdrop.

5️⃣ The only way is through. Not around it. Not over it. Through it.

These aren't just beliefs. They're the foundation for everything — Transcendfit, the HELPP Network, and Chaos to Clarity: The Expansion.

FYI: Pre-sale open now through Aug 10 for Chaos to Clarity: The Expansion. Nov 7–8 · San Francisco

Day 9 🎙️

What's the opposite of everything I stand for?

Unmitigated excess — in either direction.
One extreme: excess growth with no off switch (biologically, that's cancer). The other: excess breakdown past what your system can carry (biologically, closer to rhabdomyolysis — muscle dissolving itself, poisoning the very system it's part of).

Neither is generous.

Neither is humble.

Both are unchecked excess.

The Fractal Law says capacity can't be extracted — only offered. True overflow happens at a pace your system can sustain. Not forced out of you, and not broken out of you either.

That's the enemy: unmitigated excess.

What I stand for is purposeful intention.

Part 1 because there was too much 🔥💛☀️ at ! and I on that post-event recap 😆🤙

First and foremost, immense gratitude for
for being that soul sis and getting us out for this event. .infinite .hendrixx for serving up a SOLID event.

The Aunties Frances and Francesca for being in our orbit from the door to close. 💛✊️🫶

Last, but not last, my girls and the birthday girl, .leenwithit for being by my side in life. 💛😄

Special shout to , one of the folks who just happened to be sitting next to us. 😄🤙

Funny enough — I just wrote about the same thing this gathering kept proving to me: that nothing real arrives in one clean moment. It rises before you name it, it peaks when you least expect to clock it, and then it just... keeps stretching outward for days after, into car rides, into random Tuesdays, into rooms exactly like this one. 🌅

This was that. Still is, honestly. 💛

When people get together with heart, soul, and the best of intentions in mind, amazing things can be accomplished and whole communities will be uplifted.

Let's keep that going.

Day 7 + 8 🎙️

The real issue isn't that you're not enough. It's that you've never had a space where you didn't have to perform.

And if you're the one everyone leans on — gifted, capable, quietly extracted from for years until "capable" is just what you call it now — this is for you.
Your gift can move mountains. It can't do that while it's being drained by everyone who's learned they can take from you without asking.

Two ways to step into that power instead of surviving it 👇🏽

🤍 Founding Member of HELPP Network — full archive, community hub, deep-dive resources, quarterly strategy calls with me, 1:1 connection, + 1 free immersive wellness experience/year.

🌿 Chaos to Clarity: The Expansion — Nov 7–8. Bigger room, two days. Pricing + presale drop July 1st. Want first access? Stay tapped in.

Day 7 — went off-prompt today. 🤍

My eldest was rushed to the hospital yesterday. Spent until past midnight there. He's on the mend, thank God — right meds, on his way to better.

Moral of the story: life happens. It's been the theme of my whole life, honestly. But adaptability, resilience, not letting things knock you off center — that's what moves you forward. Stay centered in who you are, pure in your intentions, and you keep going. However that looks.

Hope y'all are having a good one. 🤙🏽

Did you know June 20th was the Summer Solstice? 🌞

Update: June 21st was considered, but this year, interestingly enough, both June 20th and June 21st had exactly the same amount of sunlight this year, clocking in at 14:46:55 both days. The last time this happened was last year, and before that 2021. It will not happen again until 2030.

Not a coincidence.

I chose that date on purpose — fought to keep it, actually — and I just wrote the whole story of why on Substack: the solstice, the zero point, what tried to stop us, and what actually moved in that room.

The Expansion is coming. November 7–8.

Pre-sale opens July 1st — and the waitlist is open now. Get first access before doors open to everyone else. 🔑

Music cred 🎶: "Peace"

Day 6! Yapping at the camera for the next 24 days now...

What's actually missing from the world right now?

Not more retreats, more therapy, more anything external.

It's the ability to hear yourself.

You can do all the "right" healing things and still be escaping with better tools.

Like I told a client of mine recently, "I want you to hear your body when it's whispering — not just when it's screaming for the attention it's needed all this time."

By the time it screams, you're already in crisis.

The whisper was always there first.

30+ years and everything I've lived through taught me this. Not theory — my whole life's arc.

On the other side of hearing your own whisper again?

Freedom. Not the weekend-escape kind. The kind that sticks with you as you navigate the craziness of this world.

Day 5 of my Yap Challenge! Day 6 on deck...

🌱 The biggest hurdle on my path wasn't one moment — it was identity. Unlearning who I was conditioned to be, to finally meet who I actually am.

The bloom only comes when staying closed gets more painful than opening up.

Birthing Chaos to Clarity taught me that same lesson all over again.

And it's not done teaching me — November, the Expansion is coming.

2 days. Bigger. More. 👀

If you're in the bud right now, scared to open —
I see you.

The bloom is worth it.
