Elena Harder hasn't added a story.
A place of self love, where all of us are surrounded by friends who support us to live our dreams to the fullest.
My name is Elena Harder. In 2010 I started my first business out of necessity, to feed myself and my newborn son after leaving an abusive relationship. I did what I needed to do to pay the bills, but I faced the ongoing struggle of feeling isolated, self judgment, lack of resources and and feeling it was not okay to be myself in the world.
When I was 15 I distinctly remember putting on masks so that others would accept me. “Good at school” “good daughter” “loving girlfriend” all of these faces consumed my true light. Over the years these masks created a false self, that created in me a self loathing and self hatred that permeated everything I did. I was anxious, depressed, suicidal, homicidal, and unable to ask for help.
Like many people I turned to alcohol, sugar, caffeine, smoking and drugs to numb the pain. I spent my early twenties in a relationship with an Alcoholic and pretty far from sober myself. When I finally found the courage to leave that relationship, it took several more years to undo the damage to my heart, psyche, and confidence. All of this happened because I was trying to follow the societal norms of “good wife, and happy mom.”
I know I'm not alone in this feeling, every day I speak to people who feel trapped by who they are “supposed to be” unable to escape the rat race, and burdened with the responsibilities of their modern lives.
Whether it’s keeping up with the Jones', an abusive relationship, supporting your children, aging parents, or just going through the motions at work to pay the unending bills. I understand we all have our reasons for not pursuing our dreams. The truth is that many of our systems are not supporting us to be happy healthy people. The 9-5 model and the commute isn’t working for us, neither is the school system, death do us part marriage, the nuclear family …the list goes on.
Through my work I’ve had the privilege of helping over 80 conscious entrepreneurs create their brands and businesses. These are people who have suffered through their own version of hell and come out the other side who are now dedicating their lives to making the world a better place. I’ve heard each of their stories, and seen the inside of the solution that they bring to help their clients and society as a whole transcend the patterns of “not good enough” and “not worthy”.
Within these people I've also seen more than my fair share of single mom's working their BUTTS off to make ends meet, working their businesses to fill in the gaps left by absent fathers, too many financial burdens, and not enough community support.
Many in our community have found this sense of “acceptance” in the festivals that happen every summer. They dream of heading back to the land, building villages and, recapturing the wild-ness of the past.
Now, festivals are great, but most of them only last a few days. We need something that lasts a lifetime. To support our mothers, our families, our children. To bring that sense of tribe back to the village. I know we can do it, because we are the ones we have been waiting for.
Our generation are born innovators, outside the box thinkers, web 3.0 creators, who were never made to live in that old system, but to to transcend it, and create a new one what will support this new generation, this new era. Our generation is creating jobs, technologies, and lifestyles which never even existed even 5 years ago, and which 50 years ago weren’t even a dream. It’s time to bring what we know together, and create the new world.
That’s where you come in. Because if you’re watching this, I
know you’re part of the solution. I need your help to bring this
dream to reality.
This summer I am going to be touring festivals and live events
in Canada/US to share the message of Radical Self Love and encourage
people to create lives for themselves they don’t need to escape.
Meet the JoyGasm Yome. I’ve already got approval from Astral Harvest for an Art Grant to create the JoyGasm Yome. I need your help to raise the rest of the funds to buy the dome, and the gear to make it a comfy cuddle space.
While at the festivals, our Yome will serve as workshop space, We'll be teaching radical self love, cuddling for health, abuse recovery, the importance of clear boundaries, conscious relationships, online and home based business and of course the JoyGasm.
In the fall, the Home will head to Mexico, where it will serve as a dorm as part of an existing retreat centre, allowing them to host larger numbers for out of town workshops, increasing net income, which is already used towards education and abuse prevention in indigenous communities, and support the abused women shelter in nearby Puerto Vallarta.
The Yome will be at the centre of the Mexico community, a place of balance, self love and friendships that encourage us to live our dreams to the fullest.
Anchored in the indigenous traditions of the land, and financially supported by our VIP Retreats from resident coaches. A place to support you to in reaching your goals and live on your edge, a village full of people who care about you.
