To be, you.

To be, you.

What is it to be, You? The YOU that’s YOU is not going to be the same YOU as it is for me. Yet it’s within our similar themes like falling in love and heart ache, of triumph and failure, or adventure and being uninspired etc, that we can find the humanness, compassion, understanding, and love for one another.

A common theme I’ve notice on my IG thread lately, has been this out pour from people feeling like they are starting to feel fully expressed. Stepping into and acting in alignment is a powerful thing. When we feel expressed, or seen, it has the power to heal wounds. It has the power to shift perspectives and make radical change. YOU find the power within yourself to move mountains.

We all have an “Evolution of Self” story. Now that you’re here, you can also use this as a way to find more compassion for the path someone else has walked... because just like you, they have fallen in love and have had heart ache, they too have had moments of triumph and failure, or adventure and uninspired moments in time.

Happy 4th!

Get out of your own way!

Get out of your own way!

Taking a moment to feel what it meant to me to present at the Georgia Public Health Association Conference today... but to also relate it back to you.
I submitted my presentation in October of last year. I did it as a way for me to visualize and go through the actions and feelings of what it would be like to submit, give the talk, and make my approach of someday getting sound therapy into hospitals. I researched the format, watched countless tutorials, pulled together my case studies, and put it all together in this package called an Abstract. I never thought I would actually get chosen. 😳

From the outside, you don’t get to see all the work and all the people who came together for me to do this 30min presentation. The 7 years in the industry. The 4 years of working to create sustainable sound therapy programs specific for corporate clients and therapy centers. The time teaching and mentoring up-incoming Sound Therapist. The programs I have invested in to help propel me forward. The time other people put in to support my moments of doubt, or time to help create the programs or experiences you have with me. (So many people to list!) Everything. All of it.. prepared me for today. And pushed me over the edge to something greater!

The same goes for you. Where are you getting in the way of your own evolution? You are feeling “on the edge” of something greater for a reason. You have been preparing for this change (in whatever area of your life it is) for a while. Get out of your own way, NOW! That’s when things really start to get interesting. 💕 .

WELP… I’m feeling it!

WELP… I’m feeling it!

I don’t know what it is but when I feel like something has shifted within, I feel the need to change my hair.  Like, “THIS” is what I have to do to express the shift that has happened on the inside for it to fully be expressed.  A statement, an exclamation point, an “I have committed to” the showing up fully in the evolution and alignment of self. And this… was a BIG SHIFT.

The kind with resistance, the ugly cry, and girl friends having your back when you go head to head with yourself!

I started working with a coach with the intention to evolve my spiritual practice. The very first session opened up awareness on foundation (root), play (sacral), and inner dialog (solar plexus) around the Self Expression.

I will admit… I was offended! (the resistance!) But it was true! (the ugly cry!) The more I explored this (friends showed up) with my coach we discovered that I had a belief that I needed to look a certain way to be accessible, approachable, and be taken seriously in my work endeavors, in friendships, and in love. (Its partially true about some areas of my work.) Though I have dabbled and tested the waters in a few areas, I haven’t had the courage to show up in the fullest outward expression of myself.

Tomorrow, I am taking the first step.  Hair. (Not surprising! Haha!) My wardrobe will slowly evolve, and I am scoping out tattoo artists. The conversation on my feed will start to shift, and I will be adding a different type of sound bath experience for those wanting to go deeper into meditative experiences. (Stay tuned) And the biggest expression of all VOICE, will come more into play.

I share this because I strongly believe if Im not showing up fully, how can I ask you?  We may all be on different paths, but they all lead to the same place. Inner peace. We all deserve to live a life we love. And the first step is to look in the mirror. I’m nervous and feeling a lot of emotions around this, but excited to see it all come together. And most of all, feel fully expressed.
