Trust is the first step

Trust before courage

Trustisthefirststep
Lately I’ve been met by the belief that living from the heart out, following your call, being me fully and completely, speaking my truth, about what I know and believe is about courage…

That I in some way or another am special or unique.

We’re the same

Let me start by clarifying that I’m not. You and me are made of the exact same material. If you hear a voice, sense a call or feel that there’s something you need to do – it’s because there is. You’re the one who’s supposed to deliver it into this world.

When you experience someone being courageous, inspiring, authentic or passionate you’re really seeing a reflection of everything you contain yourself.

Me, having stepped unto my path and thus, by some are being perceived as courageous, is not about courage but about trust.

About me making a conscious decision about wanting to live my life fully and with the deepest trust in knowing that everything – and I do mean EVERYTHING (including that fist my ex gave me straight in the face 8 years ago) happens for the best and for the highest development of all involved.

Everything happens for a reason – also the things we seemingly classify as “bad”.

Space of Happiness, Joy & Love

– and when you’re living there, in that space of joy, happiness and love, then the world looks very, very, very different than it did during the most dark period of my life. The one I now refer to as my “black period”, where I awoke every morning with dark circles beneath my eyes, where sadness followed me around like a dark cloud, where I worked, ate and slept and besides that did nothing but cry and cry and cry. Where my sister and dad suddenly stood outside my door one day fearing that I was about to end this life.

When you’ve made that decision – to trust something that’s so way bigger than you, then your world changes, all of your life changes.

That does not mean that I don’t experience resistance or adversity, it only means that every time I choose to see it with love.

I don’t have to meddle around with it, investigating or consider. I can choose to let it go and return to love instantly.

But I do understand the assumption, the idea that it’s about courage. It’s only one of the Ego’s many clever, conniving methods in keeping you from stepping into the light, taking the first step in trust. It lets you believe that there’s juuuuuust that one thing you’re missing, when in reality you’re already everything you need.

It wasn’t too long ago that I stood there, believing it was about courage. Some times it seems like lightyears ago. So many things have been moved around and pulled out by the roots, alone in the last year.

Let me hear you…

    Encompassing The Whole

    As I continue doing my inner work. Lifting the veils hindering my sight. Releasing that which doesn’t serve me and aligning to that which does I’ve notice how structures seem to dissolve and a merging with all that is expanding.
    How the notion of “either or” evaporates into a “both and”.
    How I begin to encompass the whole.
    A state of being and flow I haven’t experienced before.
    Maybe that’s you too?
    I share my discoveries in this post and I’d love to have you share you experience with this as well…

    Is your self care really self sabotage?

    self care is way more than the stereotypical women’s magazine, patriarchal idea of self care as taking a spa day, getting a massage or having your nails done…

    There are times when the most radical act of self care is not to go sit and meditate, while you burn a candle, work with your crystals or essential oils and pull a card, but sit your ass down and write that article, create that course, post that offer, do that live or send that email.

    Times when the self care you seem to crave is an escape, an opportunity for you to flee what you soul is truly calling for, a mindfuck from your ego saying, “oh indeed you gotta do this, but first you need to set up an altar, have a chat with your guides and do a spread”….

    Pure self sabotage because what you truly crave with every fibre of your being is a sustainable business based in heart that supports and nourishes you and that can sometimes be scary as fuck when you’re a mere mortal receiving epic downloads.

    Becoming The Expert, Teachers Teacher Or Authority Within Your Field…

    This episode is something that’s been stirring within me for a while. I’ve wanted to share this with you because it’s been coming up more and more in my sessions with clients that they have come to a point or they’re a point where they’re actually being called toward or asked to step into the role of the leader, the expert, the authority within your field, or the teacher’s teacher.

    In this episode, I’m going to share some of the commonalities that I see that come up when that happens or some of the – I’m not sure I want to call them signs – but challenges, issues that you most likely will have to move through. { Continue Reading… }
