As a young one, I was a real teenager’s teenager.
Sex, drugs, and 90’s hip hop were my lifestyle; a hard shell I used to protect the tender, sensitive, insecure girl I was inside.
After high school I made the decision not to go to college, for two reasons:
1. I made it through school by the skin of teeth and sensed that if I had unlimited access to drugs and alcohol it would not be good.
2. I had gotten a summer job at a department store makeup counter and felt I had FOUND MY CALLING.
So I signed up to become a licensed esthetician (facialist.).
I’ll never forget the first time I received a facial.
As I laid down on the massage table, eucalyptus scented steam swirled around the room. The facialist poured a golden oil into her hands and performed a ballet of touch on my face and neck. As she painted my face with a mineral rich mud mask, I took the deepest breath I had taken since I was a baby.
My little teenage body, wracked with toxins and trauma, exhaled.
At that time I felt stupid for not having left home to go to school like all my friends did.
But looking back I can see I was being saved.
