It’s Friday! Let’s Fuck Shit Up Together!
Happy Friday, lovely! It’s time to fuck some shit up!
Twice a month, in accordance with the lunar cycles, we gather in circle here and in your inbox for a salaciously good time. We talk sex, self-care, and reclaiming what has always been ours via ritualized practices and hexing shitty politicians. And for my entrepreneurial babes out there, you’re getting a little bonus sales tip, too.
Why? Because I want to combine everything in my varied background into one place to offer my highest and greatest good to you. Take what resonates. Leave the rest.
🔥 SEX
In this segment, I hand you a little tip to keep your sexual health in line or spice up your bedroom. Why? Because I sold sex toys for 12 years and received training from some of the best sexologists in the world. Any products mentioned are available HERE.
When you’re engaging in sexual activity, what senses are involved?
Clearly, the sense of touch is involved. That’s a given. But do you consider your other senses?
If not, I want to encourage you to do so.
What sounds could you incorporate to add to your pleasure?
What fragrances would help you tap into the moment?
Are there visual cues you could create to heighten your experience?
How about flavors? (Don’t – DO NOT – insert food into your genitals. And be EXTREMELY careful if you’re incorporating ANY kind of sugar into your sexual play. Yeast infections are not the vibe.)
Your entire body is available, which means every sense you have access to can be involved in every pleasurable activity.
Don’t limit yourself just to the sense of touch.
Use your other senses to expand your concept of sexual pleasure!
💖 SELF-CARE
In this segment, I combine my background as a massage therapist with my training as a coach to offer you tips for physical, mental, and emotional well-being. My personal recommendation for physical movement is the Pilates-based mat work offered by Tandy Gutierrez. Not only has Tandy’s work helped me navigate living in an auto-immune body, but over the years, this has helped me more than anything else to heal my nervous system. Check out her Unicorn Wellness Studio HERE.
Healing happens in community.
Community organizing is the foundation of effective activism.
Where is your community? Who are they?
Given the current state of our political climate in the US, you deserve a healing community to allow you to effectively advocate for the candidates and policies, to feel connected with the larger scope of political activism, to ground into a regulated state and ensure you don’t either freeze or completely burn out.
And you’ll find that inside Project Reclamation
August through November, we’re adding daily prompts to the private Facebook group and weekly check-ins via additional calls to support you through the presidential election season.
Election day is Tuesday, November 5, and you deserve to be able to navigate the excitement, the fear, and everything else that comes up during this season without losing your mind about it.
That’s the vibe here.
We’re moving through this time period, showing up intentionally, and reclaiming our political authority from the oppressive systems that Project 2025 promises to exacerbate.
Whether you’re existing in the context or you’re uncertain about your vote because of criticisms against the Democratic party, this space is for you. (If you’re pro-Christian Nationalism, this is not your space, and I don’t even know why you’re on my email list.)
Join us. Reclaim what politics means in your life from a place of solid, grounded empowerment in a connected healing community.
We’ve been waiting for you.
💸 SALES
Again, I sold sex toys for 12 years. In the direct sales industry. I was fucking good at it. I earned a ton of incentives. And I trained hundreds of other women how to do the same thing. Now, I’ve taken my experience from that career, my experience with a brick-and-mortar massage practice with massage membership sales, and from building my coaching practice to develop a sales and business membership community to help other entrepreneurs redefine their relationship to sales, systems, and strategy so they can grow in a sustainable way. In this segment, I’m offering all my entrepreneurial love bugs a sales tip. Skip this part if it doesn’t apply to you. And if it does? Get my free 7-day course to find and hone your authentic sales voice at KeliLynJewel.com/voice.
Most of my sales clients have some sense of altruism to their business.
They may not consider themselves activists (though some do), but they’re engaged in the wild ride of entrepreneurship in part because they see it as a way to be part of creating the world they wish to live in.
And while the advice some business coaches dole out is to stay in your lane with regard to topical content, I vehemently disagree.
This doesn’t mean I think you need to shift your marketing from accounting to political punditry if you’re a bookkeeper.
It does, however, mean that I strongly recommend you incorporate your values into your content.
For example: If you’re a copywriter or a graphic designer, use political ads for candidates you want to promote to evaluate in your content. Make the ad an example of what to do or what not to do for effective design or copy.
If you volunteer for a campaign or an organization during the election season, post content about that in your stories. (Marketing isn’t JUST telling people what you do. It’s also developing know/like/trust to grow a following of people who will purchase from you.)
We all have access to the entire internet. And you’re not the only person who does what you do.
Consumers want to be able to vote with their dollars, so use your values to connect with the people who want to vote for those same values.
There’s no better time to do this than NOW, when we’re in the midst of a history-making presidential election.
And if you’re unsure of how to do this and do it well, join us in Project Reclamation, where we’re adding in daily prompts and weekly check-ins for the next few months to help you navigate this election season.
✨ SPELL
Because this newsletter is sent out in conjunction with the lunar cycles, this segment offers you a moon ritual. Prior to all the stuff listed above, I studied art history as a way to develop an understanding of world religions. Since childhood, I’ve been on a spiritual journey to develop my own relationship to the divine. In no way do I have any interest in telling you what to believe or not believe. That’s for you. It’s personal. And for me, it’s cyclical. My spiritual practices have changed my relationship to time in such a beautiful way that I want to offer you a bit of that shift here by recognizing the cycles of the moon in order to hand you an opportunity to incorporate cyclical time into your experience of life. I work with many spiritual mentors, and ritualized practices are incorporated into the foundation of Project Reclamation—my equity-centered membership community—as well as the Reclamation Weekend retreats I host. And when you joined this email list, you received a Reclamation ritual from me. Again, I don’t care what you believe in or don’t believe in. Paying attention to the moon will help repair your relationship with time, which capitalism has fucked up for all of us. If you’d like to dive deeper into esoteric spirituality, I recommend checking out the Magical Mentoring program offered by Tandy, who I mentioned in blue above, for her Pilates work. That info is HERE.
Across time and culture, the moon has often represented our inner world of emotional connection, spiritual journey, and relationship to self. Aligning myself with the cycles of the moon has offered me the added bonus of shifting my relationship with time. When we allow ourselves the space for rest and renewal, rather than keeping ourselves stuck in the constant hustle & grind mentality of late-stage capitalism, our perspectives on what’s influential, what’s valuable, and what’s worthy of our energy have space to become deeper and more personal.
This week, I’m offering you a new moon ritual to hand you a little piece of that.
This doesn’t have to take a long time. The idea is to be present with yourself and focused on your full experience during the ritual. Pay attention to the sensations you feel during the ritual and make note of them afterward. I’d love to hear about your experience if you’d like to share!
NEW MOON RITUAL
The new moon is an excellent time to focus on what you want to create, achieve, or accomplish. You can get fancy with your rituals, and if you’re into altar work, crystal work, or any other kind of spiritual work, please feel free to incorporate it. Personally, I like to keep things simple.
Supplies: paper, pen, glass of water that you’ll drink
Steps:
Take a few minutes and ground yourself, whatever that means to you – whether that’s a few deep breaths, listening to a guided meditation, washing your face, putting your feet in the grass, masturbating, or anything else.
Write out what it is you want to create, achieve, or accomplish. This can be big or small. It can be for the lunar cycle beginning with this new moon, the next six months, the next calendar year, or a lifelong dream.
Read what you’ve written—out loud—over your glass of water. Then drink the water.
We’ve got a new moon in Leo coming up on Sunday, August 4.
As such, we have an excellent opportunity to consider how we want to step into any new roles, leadership positions, and areas where we may be gaining attention.
Where are you shifting into a new spotlight?
How do you want to show up to it?
✊ STATECRAFT
Politics is a not-so-secret passion of mine. I used to run a couple of political organizations here in Kansas City and lobby at the state level in Missouri with Planned Parenthood. The 2016 election is what led me into coaching after I lost my mind and a therapist told me I had “excellent coping skills” because I was focusing all my time and energy on political volunteerism. And in this segment, we might get a little petty. But we’ll always be aiming to reclaim our power from the cis-heteronormative, puritanical, white supremacist patriarchy we currently live under in this hellscape of climate change and late-stage capitalism. Here, I’ll offer suggestions on candidates to donate to, people to follow, podcasts to subscribe to, and answer the question of WHO ARE WE HEXING? (Josh Hawley is always on that list.)
JD Vance gets our hexations this week.
Obviously.
Childless cat ladies unite! ✊
Seriously, Project 2025 is a fucking problem. Join us inside Project Reclamation to get the healing community you need to be able to show up to this moment in the way you want to.
We need you. And we need you to be grounded. Supported. Fully authentic. Aligned. Connected.
You deserve that. (Cats not required. Children optional.)
*This segment is not intended to promote harm to anyone in any way. I don’t hex people in real life. ✊
******************************
That’s it for this week, lovely! I appreciate you offering me space in your day. And I look forward to seeing you fuck some shit up today! ❤️🔥

P.S. I want to invite you to Project Reclamation, a private, equitable, self-coaching community, to explore the most expansive version of yourself. Inside, you’ll receive tools for nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and cognitive self-coaching. Plus, you’ll have access to Master Certified Coaches to receive written coaching as well as live coaching via group calls. And you’ll be able to join in on an integrated book club, as well as both virtual and in-person community celebrations.
Maybe life coaching has felt out of reach for you in the past, as it’s often relegated to those hoarding enough wealth to be bored. But self-discovery doesn’t actually come in Tiffany boxes, and it is my goal to make healing and growth accessible to everyone.
Inside this space, we’re committed to reclaiming our bodies, our time, our joy, and our lives from all the cultural conditioning that has left us feeling less than. And we’re doing it in a vibrant, supportive community that is truly open to everyone who shares these values. (Though cis-het white Christian men may struggle a bit.)
Registration is now open, so click the link to join. See you on the inside!
