Rising from the ashes... what I have learnt about new beginnings...

This year I have leant even more into trust.

At the end of 2023 most of my life and my business felt like chaos.

I had made a commitment to let go of anything that did not feel true for me anymore.

I handed it over to The Universe and said take anything that doesn't serve me.

This saw my marriage end, my business pivot 80% of what it had been doing and a complete re-prioritisation about what was important to me.

As I walked through the fire of letting go I felt that all I could see was ash at the end of 2023.

Life looked and felt like a mess.

It was then that the Universe brought me a sign. I saw on a nature documentary about a red flower that grows from the ash after a volcano and I thought "that flower is going to symbolise my new life growing."

The thing is I had no idea where to start.

My mind wanted me to start by going full throttle in my business. To make more money. To make sure I was safe by doing the old. It wanted me to do things how I had done them before.

But an inner voice told me differently and at the end of December 2023 I received the very clear message to focus on my body.

So I did.

For the first 8 months of this year I have prioritised becoming physically, emotionally and mentally fit.

I have worked out 4-5 times a week consistently. Changed my diet. Committed to 8-9 hours of sleep most nights. Had regular lymphatic drainage, energy work, acupuncture, kundalini activations, reiki and various forms of therapy.

I hired a fitness coach, lost two stone and showed up everyday for my body.

Out of this a new me emerged.

A stronger, softer, more powerful me who desired more than anything freedom, peace, love, joy and contentment.

She then led me to travel, quality time with my friends, to open my heart up again and a connection to even greater spiritual gifts.

There has been a part of me that has felt impatient and a lot of fear. Who has desired to get moving in her business but who has trusted that voice that says to go slow, to trust what is happening and to wait as things get rearranged in her favour.

And that is exactly what is happening.

My message today is to TRUST what path you are being asked to take.

Don't succumb to the fear that says you are wrong and to go back to the old.

Going with the new current means letting go of the old.

There may be some time between the letting go of the old and the emerging of the new.

Use this to go within, heal, vision and declare what you want.
