I Finally Let Go (Here’s What Happened)
In the last 2 months, I’ve been home three days.
Three days.
The rest of the time has been spent in airports, speaking events, family living rooms, and honestly, a lot of time alone with my thoughts.
People keep asking me about my trips. First Mexico, then Washington and California.
And the answer that keeps coming up is: “I feel like I got my spark back.” 🔥
Now, if you’ve been following along, you know this is very different from where I’ve been lately and honestly, I've been trying to make sense of it myself.
If you’re into astrology, I started my little adventure right as eclipse season kicked off and arrived home right as it ended.
With those energies swirling, it created the perfect window to shake things loose and rearrange my internal landscape. Which wasn’t easy, but it was necessary.
Or, maybe you remember me lamenting the fact that I wasn’t doing what I wanted with my life? Well… somehow, by admitting that out loud, it seems to have shifted my entire perspective.
Because the reality is, right now, I am doing what I want.
Recently, I’ve made some changes to how I work with clients and I’m now offering full-day intensives. And I’m loving it.
The results? Mind blowing.
My clients are making more progress in one day than I ever thought possible.
Real, transformational change in a single day.
Plus, I only use techniques with clients that I’ve vetted myself, so I’m feeling the buzz right along with them.
On top of that, I’ve done five speaking events in March and I’ve been asked back to California for another in April.
So yeah. Career-wise? Things are going pretty well. 😄
And here’s what I’ve noticed.
The more I let go of the need to make things happen, that’s when things actually started to happen.
The more I was able to sit with how crappy I was feeling and just accept it, the more things began to shift.
But here’s the thing: acceptance is not the same as compliance.
Acceptance isn’t giving up.
It’s taking an honest look at your life so you can see clearly what needs to shift and what’s already working. Because sometimes when we stop fighting reality, we also see how much is already going right.
As a wise teacher once told me,
“If you only ever say one prayer in your life, make it a prayer of gratitude.”
That one hits me every time.
But if I’m being honest, the real icing on the cake these last two months, the thing that has truly filled my cup, was getting quality time with people I love.
People I hadn’t seen in almost a year.
I never planned for a year to go by without a visit. It just kind of... happened.
And I’ve now made a commitment to myself that I won’t let it happen again.
Because it’s not worth it.
Life is too short and too unpredictable to keep postponing time with the people who matter most. Period.
Now, if you know my story or have read my book, you know my family is far from perfect. And there are still things being worked through.
But the more I do my own healing work, the more I’m able to see everyone as just... people. People who, at the end of the day, want the same things.
Love. Quality time. Forgiveness. Peace.
As Rumi puts it,
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
Helping myself, my family, and my clients remove those blocks to love... that is some of the most meaningful work of my life. 💜
So while I may never be able to fully pinpoint what created this shift in me, I’ll take it.
Because it’s giving me the strength, the energy, and the motivation I’ve been looking for, so I can keep showing up.
For myself, for my loved ones, and for you.
So, I’d love to know, is there something in your life that’s blocking you? And if you accepted that block, as it is right now, what’s the very next step you would take? 🌱
