February Soul Notes


Hi Reader,

Welcome to February's Soul Notes!

I’ve been sitting with something and it finally clicked this weekend - mid coffee, of all places. ☕️

I’ve been stuck.

Not in a “my life is falling apart” way. But in that way where you know something’s off, but you can’t quite put your finger on it.

I kept trying to figure it out and shape it into something that made sense, but the harder I tried, the flatter it felt.

Here’s what finally landed:

I wasn’t stuck because I couldn't figure it out. I was stuck because I couldn’t hear myself anymore.

I've been doing a lot of behind the scenes work in my business this past month, and I realized I'd been adjusting my voice. I was diluting and watering down my messaging to fit into something this work doesn't even belong in.

That was the "off" feeling in my body - I was out of alignment with what was authentic for me.

Once it clicked in, I felt my whole nervous system exhale.

I had my own sacred shift moment. 😊

I know I’m not the only one who ends up here sometimes. Capable people get stuck too. People who are self-aware lose access to their own voice - their own knowing.

It can feel like you’re broken or doing it wrong, but you’re not. You’re just being human.

And maybe trying to fit yourself into something that's not true for you doesn't work anymore. And maybe you're at the point where listening and trusting yourself is more aligned for you than how the rest of the world perceives or receives you.

Just maybe. 😉

So much love,

Reader, when someone comes to me with a problem they’re struggling with, the first thing I do isn’t to analyze it, but to ask them to drop down into how they feel about it - right now, in this moment. Just one or two words. Whatever's most true. Then I ask them to close their eyes, sit with that feeling, and ask it: how old are you? Whatever number comes first - before the brain has a chance to edit it - that's the one. Sometimes it's 5. Sometimes it's 3. Sometimes it's 8 or 12. That number...

Hi Friends! First - thank you for all the birthday blessings last month. It meant more than you know. And I love that so many of you took me up on my $37 Sacred Shift! That was the real blessing - what an honor to be on this journey with you. You know that feeling when someone says "just be yourself" and you think...but who IS that anymore? When you used to know exactly who you were, what you wanted, what felt right - and now there's just this constant questioning of everything? I can spot...

Hey Reader, Yesterday, someone asked me what's different now, on the other side of everything I've been through. The first word that came to mind was peace. Just...peace. Not that life doesn't still offer up hard things, but they don't shake me like they did for a long time. I feel different in my body now - like I'm finally living in my own skin. I didn't realize how much I lived on high-alert - until I didn't. I've lived alone now for the last 6 years (first time in my life!) and I...
