Sometimes the hard comes before the easy
Sometimes the hard has to come before the easy. Life’s toughest challenges are the fertile ground where our greatest growth begins.
Just as the darkest nights give birth to the brightest stars or the way that a lotus blooms through mud, sometimes our path must grow difficult before it becomes clear.
Periods of darkness are an initiation for us to navigate. Ultimately, the challenges we face shape our character and pave the path ahead. They remind us that we are stronger than we believe ourselves to be and more resilient than what we could know of ourselves.
The truth that you don’t want to hear but know deep inside… that whilst there is so much growth in the flow, the ease, when everything is going your way… often the greatest growth is through grit and resilience 🪷
Embracing the difficulties allows us to appreciate the beauty of our growth and the strength we have gained along the way. In the end, we realise that it is not the easy moments that define us, but how we rise above and transform through the hardest ones. Through this, we come to understand that our greatest growth often begins in the toughest of times.

Look how far you’ve come
Look at you, look how far you’ve come.
You’ve faced your trauma, and you came out of it the other side.
I’m sorry to get a little emotional but there were some times there when I was really worried about you.
Look at you today. I am so proud of you. You survived. You’re a survivor.
You didn’t come this far, to only get this far 👀 look at you! In all the moments you thought you couldn’t or wouldn’t get through yet here you are reading this.
You did it and I’m so proud of you. I hope you’re so proud of yourself 🧡
Healing is not linear. No matter who you are we all have a journey we experience. In the darkest of moments know that the light is there always and it can take time to reveal itself. It’s okay to be human and have moments of doubt, fear, negativity and intense emotions.
Keep going, there is support out there and you are so loved.
From my own personal experience and coaching clients I have found five pivotal parts to my own journey that form the foundation of my work: mindset, self love, energy, purpose and UNLEARNING ⚡️

Honour the divine within you
May you honour the divine within you, your inner guru. Embrace the journey of self-discovery with an open heart, allowing your intuition and inner light to guide you through every twist and turn that life can take.
Know that by listening to and valuing your inner voice, you are stepping into your true power, aligning with your deepest purpose, and manifesting a life of profound fulfilment and joy.
5 ways to tap invoke the guru that exists within you:
1. Feel into your intuition and experiment with it. Follow the nudge and pull to see where it takes you ✨ it exists within you for a reason your inbuilt GPS.
2. Surrender and let go, see the clues and signs where life is trying to take you. What we resist persists. What we resist offers a clue for greater growth. Be open to new directions and pivots including those off the back of say rejection (which is redirection and projection).
3. Consider alternative perspectives, is there such thing as a universal truth? How can we see another persons point of view? How can we see things as they are and not as maybe perhaps we want or hope.
4. Be open… to miracles, to possibilities, to anything that can happen. Life can change in an instant a second.
5. Appreciate yourself! You’re still here despite the challenges and twists of life. Appreciate all that you do for yourself and others.I offer 1:1 coaching and human design readings.

The bravest thing we can do is in the unlearning
Life often demands that we evolve, but evolution isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes, the bravest thing we. can do is in the unlearning. In shedding the old layers of who you were. It’s not that you are losing yourself rather who you were becomes a foundation to who you are becoming: the most authentic and aligned version of who you are meant to be all along.
When you let go of who you were, you make space for who you had to unbecome to be.
The uncertainty, the unknown can be intimidating when your identity is unraveling and shifting. In this same space exists so much endless potential.
Trust that each change, each shift, is guiding you closer to your aligned and authentic self.
This journey of self is not about losing yourself; it’s about uncovering the layers that have always been within you, waiting to emerge.
Embrace the process with an open heart and a curious spirit, for it is in the unknown that we find our truest, most powerful selves.
Remember, you are not alone on this journey. Your team are with you always 🪶I offer 1:1 coaching and human design readings.

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.

Life is a divine Miracle
Questions to your thoughts and beliefs around timelines in life
Why do you have to get married by a certain age? Why do you have to be at the top of your career ladder by a particular age?
Do you live based on timelines
Life is a string of moments, and each moment counts. Where you are right now is where you’re meant to be. Life is a divine miracle unfolding in real time. At any moment, at any chance, life can change.
Come back to presence, come back to living in there here and now…

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.
📖 The Great Unlearning by Phi Dang -
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… -
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.
