It's an exciting time to be alive.
 
After, what felt like an eternity of heaviness over the past few weeks, there has been a huge shift in energy.
 
I feel so fired up, on purpose and aligned with my vision now, because things that I wasn’t clear on previously have revealed themselves to me.
 
It’s an exciting time to be alive.
 
We are all being asked to step up, and become more real with ourselves.
 
What does that mean?
 
It means you can’t just continue on floating around, letting your predetermined beliefs and conditioning create an ongoing ‘Groundhog Day’ of your life.
 
You are being asked to get real about where you are, what you are doing, and whether it actually is what you want.
 
Perhaps you’ve been doing what other people tell you to do, for far too long. And without that external guidance you feel lost and insecure. I get that. I’ve been there.
 
But here’s where you get into the danger-zone: if you don’t start trusting yourself, and start living your life for real, and paying attention to that inner compass we all carry around, you will never get to fulfill your unique purpose in life.
 
Lots of people get freaked out about purpose, because they think it has to be this big, grand thing. It doesn’t.
 
Maybe your purpose is to be the most attentive, present and passionate gardener in the world. By doing that you create a positive ripple effect on the whole world by bringing gardening the attention it deserves.
 
Maybe your purpose is the be an incredible role-model for your children, by teaching them how to create their worlds with intention.
 
Maybe your purpose is to be a gentle artist, whereby you remind people how to keep coming back to themselves, to remember to come back into their hearts, through the inspiration and beauty you create.
 
Plus, you don’t have to have it figured out yet. More often than not, your purpose is right there beside you, unfolding as you go about your life, waiting for you to notice it, and give it the focus that it deserves.
 
Don’t worry, your purpose isn’t going to up and leave you. It’s yours and only yours forever. It is the most committed lover you’ll ever have, whether the love is requited or not.
 
An exercise I like to do, in times of rapid growth and change, like now, is to journal about what I’m all about, so I an refine and define it in a way that I can make use of it.
 
What are my gifts?
 
What lights me up the most?
 
What are my lifelong influences?
 
What kind of legacy do I want to leave behind?
 
How would I use my time if I could do anything I want with it?
 
What am I naturally really good at, and what do I truly hate doing?
 
Clearly, there’s always going to be so much more going on at the soul-level, but this is how we bridge the path between the practical and logical reality, with the energetic, limitless and ethereal reality. Both are always at play, and as humans we have this beautiful opportunity to bring it all into a real, tangible sensual experience.
 
Isn’t that amazing?!
 
I literally am blown away by all that is possible and all the different levels of the human experience. Literally anything is possible, if we choose it to be.
