Are you hearing the call to claim your next level?

When my next level is beckoning me it tends to feel like this before any sense of clarity arrives.

These things happen generally in this order:

⭐ A niggle something is off
⭐ A period of quiet and reflection
⭐ A sudden desire to be in my feminine - out in nature, being, staring out the window, not feeling very much like 'doing'
⭐ A sense of despondency, feeling lost and confused
⭐ A pull that there is another part of me that wants to step forwards, to create, to speak
⭐ A fear around what that means for my business in general and a sense of chaos from the energy this brings

Being called to the next level sound so enticing.

So empowering.

So activating.

And it is all of those things.

However what often comes first is the duality of having to hold space for the things that want to fall away.

Over the last few months I have been going through extra-ordinary expansion on the inside.

To my ego it doesn't look like much is happening on the outside but I can feel it in every part of my being.

Like a feeling of being too big for my current body.

But this has not, or does not currently feel like it's a stream of creativity and motivation.

It has been feeling foggy and stuck and messy.

For me though it is the sign of things to come.

I know that for the next level to be called in there is a shedding, a discarding, a purging [I often get poorly], a chaotic whirlwind that runs rampant through everything.

It's like a part of me steps in and starts challenging me on all of it.

Who I am.

How I serve.

How I lead.

How I think.

What I say.

Suddenly things that "fitted” don't.

So what do we do?

The key thing for me in this moment is to keep coming back to this question..

WHAT AM I ACTUALLY BEING CALLED TO CLAIM?

And as the pen comes to the paper this morning I noticed - the stalling, the need to distract, the tiredness, the procrastination.

The desire to avoid the bigness of what comes through.

Because - can I actually claim that big? Go that big? Trust that big? Handle something that big?

If this feels like you then the best thing you can do is become radically honest with yourself.

What is the truth of where you are being called to go?

And can you follow it?

Without the proof?

Without the logic of how it all comes together?

Ultimately - are you willing to say yes to what is inside of you?
