  • How do you surrender?

    When we surrender to the flow of life and spirit, when we open ourselves to infinite possibilities, allowing the beauty of our true essence to shine through. It is in this state of surrender that we find out greatest strength, for we are no longer bound by the limitations of fear and doubt.

    We begin to trust in the wisdom and magic of the universe, understanding that every experience, whether ecstatic or challenging, serves a purpose in our journey of growth and self-discovery.

    So how do you surrender? Mentally it seems so hard 😮‍💨 the truth is it is about releasing, to let go of that one need you may or may not be conscious of.

    To surrender is to let go of the need to control and predict every outcome. In doing so we create space for miracles to unfold and our manifestations to land.

    We become more attuned to the subtle guidance of our intuition, which leads us toward opportunities that deeply and naturally align with us.

    How can you perhaps surrender a little more in your life right now? 🦋

  • Surround yourself with those who see your light

    Surround yourself with those who see your light and celebrate it, who encourage your growth and support your dreams. Let go of those who seek to diminish your brilliance, for they cannot comprehend the magnitude of how you shine.

    Nurture relationships that uplift and inspire, creating a community where you can shine even brighter. Those who will celebrate your successes as their own and offer a support and a steady hand when you stumble. These are your people.

    As Nipsey said “If you look at the people in your circle and don’t get inspired, then you don’t have a circle. You have a cage.” ❤️‍🔥

    Your people resonate with your vision, who understand the depths of your aspirations and are willing to stand by you through the challenges. Embrace connections that are rooted in mutual respect and admiration, where every interaction fuels your passion and drives you to be your best self.

    In this circle of support, you’ll find not just allies, but champions of your journey. By nurturing such relationships, you create a sanctuary of positivity and empowerment. Be intentional with who you surround yourself with and by, you are light and you’re here to shine and make a difference in this world 💫🗺️

  • The power of you is your authenticity

    Dive deep into the well of your own inner wisdom, for it is vast and profound. Trust in your intuition, the quiet voice within that guides you with gentle certainty. Your journey is unique, paved with experiences that have shaped you into the extraordinary woman you are today.

    Honor your path, and walk it with grace, knowing that every step you take is purposeful and significant. As you move forward, remember that your power lies not just in your strength but in your vulnerability. Embrace the fullness of your emotions, allowing them to flow freely.

    In your authenticity, you find true liberation. Let your passion guide you, your heart lead you, and your spirit soar. Shine on, brilliantly and boldly.

    The power of you is your authenticity and intuition. No one can replicate it for it is so unique to you.

    It’s in the unlearning of what is outside of you.

    Within you have incredible inbuilt tools built within you to live life as best as you can.

    It’s about tapping into your natural gifts and what makes you, you.

    If you’re curious as to know your natural energy mapping, wiring and blueprint – human design shows you the way.

  • What is meant to be will find it’s way

    This message was meant to find you;

    Relying on faith can be overwhelming.

    At times you’ll need a moment to take it all in.

    You can’t mess it up.

    It’s yours.

    All you have to do is believe in the process and continue your journey.

    It might take a day, maybe a year but what is meant for you will always find it’s way to you.

    Why the wait? Why the pain?

    The waiting, the gap, the in between, the changes, the transitions, the meantime… they all serve a necessary purpose. Even delays and detours are part of it.

    You will arrive at the perfect time, as the exact person you need to be, ready.

    Eventually everything will work out.

    It always does.

    Take a deep breath in and let go. Hold your power and vision. Everything will fall into place. You don’t have to worry about anything. Have faith.

  • Life is tough, but so are you

    Life is tough, but...

    🧠 I keep messing up

    🧠 I feel defeated

    🧠 I won’t make it

    🧠 What’s the point

    🫀 Keep going

    🫀 Better days are coming

    🫀 Life is tough but so are you.

    What no one is talking about...

    It’s easy to get caught up in the belief that life seems easy and effortless all the time for everyone except you, that there must be something wrong with you because you are struggling and haven’t achieved the same amount as that person or done a lot like the other.

    The truth is life is hard inherently, life isn’t meant for your happiness, or at least just that… 💣

    Life is orchestrated for your growth and expansion 💥

    There will be tough times but if you’re honest, in those moments don’t you seem to change the most?

    The uncomfortable, the hard and discomfort help you to grow (it doesn’t feel like it at the time and often does looking back).

    Life is tough, but so are you 👊🏽

    I wrote the following in my book 📖 The Great Unlearning;

    “I know some days turn into nights and everything seems so unbearable you want to escape into darkness. When everything is dark, don’t forget about the light. Turn within and whisper to your soul. Place your hand over your heart and feel the devotion that beats for you. Some of the best days of your life are yet to happen. Some of the best moments of your life are yet to be had. Some of the unforgettable memories are yet to be made. The people you’ll meet are yet to be met. The souls you’ll fall in love with are yet to be loved. The excitement you’ll have that’s yet to unfold. The mystery and magic of life that’s waiting to reveal itself. Hold on because you’re only on a single page while novels are being written within you.” 🪄

    This is your sign to keep going, tough times aren’t the end, maybe they are a beautiful new beginning…

  • POV: your dream came true

    POV...

    POV: the little girl in me proud making her lifelong dream come true

    I am so grateful

    What makes this so special is that as a little girl books always meant the world to me. My dad who passed away when I just turned 20 from bowel cancer was an English teacher in Vietnam before he came to Australia by boat fleeing the war and would read to me every night (my parents actually met on that boat!).

    I never knew what I would write about or how it would it happen but I’m so very grateful that the universe had bigger plans for me than I ever thought possible for myself 🥹

    I am grateful and proud of my past self in November 2021 who was scared but decided to go all in leaving my full time corporate job to take the leap of faith pursuing my passion in helping people as a life coach.

    I am so grateful for the love, support and messages I receive about the book and how people can relate, changed their perspective on life and gave them permission to truly be themselves and to live life on their terms = joy, expansion, abundance, radiance and beyond 🌻

    Thank you for seeing me and being here, it means the world to me and my heart is so full 🧡

    If you want to read my book it’s called 📖 The Great Unlearning: Awakening to Living An Aligned and Authentic Life by Phi Dang.

    You can find it at bookstores in Australia and beyond as well as online such as Booktopia in Australia or Amazon worldwide.

  • A gentle reminder…

    A gentle reminder...

    Gentle reminder: You are loveable, and you are loved.

    You are trying your best and I see you.

    Even when...

    Even when you make mistakes. Even when you try your best and don’t succeed. Even when you snap because you are angry and frustrated with the world. Even when you’re annoyed at yourself and others. Even when you’re caught up in an anxious loop. Even when you fall asleep with tears in your eyes. Even when you feel like a burden to everyone. Even when you are caught up in the past. Even when you feel stuck in your head and feel like you’re making everything about you. Even when you doubt yourself. Even when you have a critical self-voice that says otherwise. It can be easy to forget and this is why this reminder exists 🥹

  • Why the changes in your sleep and energy?

    The Energetic Shift

    Is it just me or are you having sudden changes to your sleep patterns and your energy?

    You’re not crazy.

    You’re not weird.

    There’s an energetic shift happening and there’s a lot going on.

    The cosmic tea and details

    What is going on? The cosmic tea and details.

    Heightened celestial activity with the human design new year coming up, Pluto’s big shift from Capricorn into Aquarius from 2024-2044 and solar flares 🌞

    If you’re sensitive to energy, intuitive you may have felt this either being very buzzy, wired and plugged in 🔌 or exhausted and depleted — lots of spiritual soul activities going on.

    Human Design New Year: January 22 (at the time of posting in the final energies of limitations, acceptance letting go more on that in my podcast 🎧 Grow Through It Podcast with Phi Dang Episode 58).

    Let’s talk about Pluto. This tiny planet packs a punch and is going to greatly influence the next 20 years of what we see unfolding collectively by making a once-in-a-lifetime transition into the sign of Aquarius from Capricorn on January 20th. This is a new collective chapter that will unfold leading to great shifts for everyone on a societal level and personally.

    Pluto is the planet of destruction, rebirth and mystery ruled by the Underworld.

    Aquarius rules justice, equality, social connections, community, humanity, innovation, technology, science and independence.

    Solar flares are huge bursts of energy from the sun supercharged with magnetic energy and radiation. They signal an ascension process shifting from your physical body to your light body. Expect intuitive downloads as well as disturbances to sleep and physical symptoms.

    More on that in Episode 59 of my podcast which is a midway January 2024 energy update.

  • New beginnings aren’t perfect…

    Everything will be okay

    You don’t have to have a happy start or beginning.

    Maybe it’s been mediocre.

    Maybe it’s been messy.

    Maybe it’s been confusing.

    Maybe it’s been just down right terrible and that’s okay.

    It doesn’t mean the journey or the destination won’t work out.

    Don’t overthink things.

    Take it step by step, moment by moment.

    Be kind to yourself.

    Give yourself love, compassion and grace.

    Everything will be okay.

    YOU set the tone

    Not so happy new year? 😕 Guess what?

    It’s okay!

    It doesn’t set the tone for the rest of what’s to come… it won’t define the year ahead, it won’t unless you let it…

    I remember starting 2023 in a strange place, everything on paper was perfect yet I wasn’t fully “happy” and “lit up” off the back of a breakup and the anniversary of my dads death and birthday… yet I ended up having one of the best years of my life in 2023 🥰

    I got to work with amazing clients, have the biggest month of my business, release my debut book 📖 The Great Unlearning, travel internationally, spend time with friends and family and met my now new partner 🫶🏽

    New beginnings can be overwhelming even when you’re excited.

    Allow yourself the grace and love to feel it all.

    After all life is a duality of high highs, low lows and everything in between.

    What matters is your mindset. Your perspective, what is IN your control.

    You set the tone. You set the pace.

    You have power.

    Enjoy the journey!

    Here’s to your growth and expansion in 2024.

  • Happy Human Design New Year!

    Happy Human Design New Year!

    Fantasy.

    Imagination.

    Contraction.

    Inspired action.

    Feel it.

    What is the energy?

    The way human design sees the new year is a whole new cycle of experience.

    Human Design New Year for many is very much about intentions over resolutions or goals because the majority of the population have an open heart, which is the centre for motivation and willpower.

    When it’s open you have inconsistent access to your own motivation and willpower therefore if you do happen to have an open heart, please don’t beat yourself, get annoyed and frustrated when you seemingly seem so motivated one minute and the the next not, that’s how you are designed and built to be in human design.

    From my experience doing hundreds of reasons, it is about unlearning the societal expectation to always be working towards something and instead getting you to shift into the being. We all have some seasons, move and flow with your energy instead of blocking it.

    The human design energy itself is fantasy, imagination, possibilities, contraction, inspired action.

    This is the week to dream big but also to come up with a plan to make it happen — big dreams, grounded in reality.

    There are several ways to tap into this energy mainly imagination and what I have channeled sensuality 👀

    More on this on the latest episode 🎧 Grow Through It with Phi Dang episode 61 Human Design New Year.
