  • CHANGES…

    Change pushes you to expand...

    Why do you only want change if it’s on your terms?

    That is not how change works.

    Change pushes you to expand.

    The circumstances of life and the universe will show you what is happening.

    Some doors are closed to redirect you.

    A door to another path will open and show you another way of doing things.

    Rejection is protection.

    You cannot control the pace of change.

    It just happens and is inevitable, so you might as well embrace it because you’ll emerge stronger, wiser and smarter than before.

    Trust and surrender...

    There’s one common thing that most of us do that stops us from growing and changing 👀

    That very thing?

    The desire to control.

    So very human of us.

    You are a powerful creator collaborating with the universe and life force itself.

    You’ll find your life fill with more ease when you realise the only thing you can control is you.

    Your inner reality.

    Choosing what thoughts you’ll follow and go into the rabbit hole with.

    Choose your perspective on the world and what you’ll do with those feelings.

    Choose your impact on the world through the way you move and what you do.

    No matter how hard you try — you cannot control life.

    It’s the beauty of life, it will unfold as it should.

    Trust and surrender beautiful soul 🌊

    Let go of the heavy need to control it all because you can’t and why would you want to?

    It would be a heavy task and where’s the fun in that?

    Enjoy the ride 🦋

  • Who are you?

    The jigsaw puzzle of life

    Stories aren’t just found in fairy tales, books and movies.

    We live inside stories that our mind creates and identifies with.

    Our brain pieces these stories together to create the ultimate story of ‘me’.

    The voice inside your head has created ‘you’ by weaving together pieces of your past experiences and what you believe to be true.

    It all then pieces together like a jigsaw puzzle.

    Only certain pieces make it into this jigsaw puzzle.

    The great unlearning...

    So who are YOU really? You aren’t these stories, you are what’s beneath them all. Pure consciousness — soul.

    Have you observed this story telling?

    The stories vou believe in the form of “l”.
    I am the type of person who…

    I am not like that because…

    I am not worthy because..

    I believe that…

    I am right because…

    The stories make us feel a certain way, the stories have us act a certain way.

    Your true self doesn’t identify with the stories.

    Your true self is in your expression, being, essence and knowing.

    There’s nothing to defend, assert, prove or cling onto.

    You haven’t done this knowingly – it has instinctively happened through your experiences and conditioning.

    You aren’t who you think you are – you are the presence underneath and behind all the layers.

    You awaken to your true self when you become conscious of this and free yourself from the stories.

    You are.

    So freeing, so powerful – to break free from the stories and simply be.

    This is the great unlearning…

    An excerpt from my debut book “The Great Unlearning — Awakening to Living An Aligned and Authentic Life”

    Currently available for preorder in Australia via Booktopia or Amazon (link in bio), International preorders opening soon via Amazon and Book Depository. Releases worldwide June 23rd 2023.

  • Embrace the darkness

    Even stars need darkness to shine

    Not all of life can be lived in the light.

    There are times life is calling us to the shadows – to grow, evolve and expand far greater than we ever have before.

    The void.

    The darkness.

    The womb space.

    The caterpillar must go into the cocoon to emerge a butterfly.

    The phoenix must die to be reborn and emerge from the ashes.

    The dark night of the soul must take pace for the awakening.

    The seedling must be planted and covered in dirt to beautifully bloom.

    Even stars and the moon need darkness in order to shine…

    The light is there, hidden

    With the darkness in life it’s not always as it appears to be.

    Beneath the veil of darkness and in the unseen. The light is there, hidden ✨

    You cannot fully perceive the changes unfolding, but just because you can’t does not mean that they aren’t happening… everything being lined up in perfect timing perfectly for you.

    Perhaps reflect in your life during difficult times that felt like the end of the world yet were the springboard and catalyst to something greater, more than you realised and could perceive at the time.

    Perhaps the darkness was your great
    We need the darkness as much as the, it’s natural as night and day.

    If you’re in the darkness now, this is a sign and affirmation to trust and have faith in the process.

    All will be revealed 💡

    I know it’s not easy, I believe in you 🌟

  • Your greatest season…

    Your greatest season

    The truth is sometimes you won’t understand why certain things are happening in your life.

    It will feel frustrating and difficult.

    You will question yourself – who you are, the choices you have made, the decisions you came to, your past and ultimately you still won’t find the answers in that.

    We think that the more we know and understand, the more peace we will have but that isn’t always the case.

    There are times in life all you can do is surrender and ride the waves.

    To have faith and trust in the process.

    That everything is happening for a reason for your greatest season.

    I believe in you...

    This is for you beautiful soul, if you’re in the fog, the uncertainty — doubting yourself, questioning yourself…

    It may not make sense right now and maybe it isn’t meant to make sense right now, but one day it will.

    We can’t always navigate life in our head, intellectually… logically.

    And thus sometimes life will shake itself up with the twists, turns and all things unexpected to get you out of your head and into your body.

    Your heart.

    Your soul.

    Your gut.

    Your intuition.

    It will test your patience.

    It will test your faith.

    It’s not easy but you will get through it.

    I know you will.

    I believe in you 🌟

    I see you 👁️

    I feel you 🧡

  • Can you surrender?

    That is life...

    Sometimes all you can do is surrender.

    To the twists and turns on the ride that is life.

    To the unpredictable waves that is life.

    To the lows and highs that is life.

    To the unknown and unexpected that is life.

    To the ebbs and flows that is life.

    To the inhale and exhale that is life.

    May surrender bring you the peace that you seek.

    Can you surrender?

    You are afraid to surrender because you don’t want to lose control. But you never had control… all you had was anxiety – @elizabeth_gilbert_writer 💡

    Instead of resisting, how would it feel to melt into this very moment…

    How would it feel to accept and allow this moment as if it were pure perfection (which it is in the guidance of the divine for your highest growth and good).

    Can you surrender?

    As an emotional authority in human design, it often feels like a dance — the push and pull with life and every time it will come back to… surrender 🌊

    Can’t fight the waves, all we can do is learn to swim or better yet surf 🏄🏼‍♀️

  • You can keep going

    Everything in divine timing...

    So maybe this year didn’t start out the way you wanted or expected… and that’s okay.

    The year isn’t over yet, it’s only just begun.

    Things can shift and change at any time.

    Sometimes on the surface it feels like nothing is happening or going your way, when really it is.

    You just can’t see it right now.

    Life is conspiring and coming together behind the scenes.

    Anything is possible.

    It can still happen.

    Everything in perfect, divine timing.

    Have faith and hold the vision.

    At the end of this year, you’ll be glad you did.

    You are worthy...

    so what if the year so far hasn’t been as magical as you hoped or expected … it doesn’t mean that it won’t eventually be 🦋

    don’t let current circumstances dictate what your heart and soul know.

    you are worthy of what you desire.

    the journey is a mixture of patience and inspired action.

    know that what is meant for you, is yours no matter what is going on right now.

    this your sign to hold on.

    I know it’s been tough and testing, on the other side of this is greater growth.

    sometimes the light is hiding behind the shadows temporarily.

    the breakdown, the void, the fog is all part of a bigger picture to reveal itself…

    let life unfold, save this post and come back to it at the end of the year… then you will see 👁️ it’s all playing out perfectly according to what you need for your highest good and alignment.

    it’s a long term game; not a short one.

  • It’s getting better…

    Make way for new beginnings

    You can relax.

    Honestly, you have no idea how good life is about to get for you.

    The universe is and has always been conspiring in your favour.

    You don’t need to worry, its okay to surrender and let the universe take care of it.

    Trust in what is being removed from your life now to make way for new beginnings.

    Soon enough, you will be so happy that all the anguish, anxiety and pain you went through will pale in comparison to the joy you will feel.

    Everything will be right.

    Everything is going to be okay.

    Dear Universe...

    Universe, show me how good it can be… show me how good it gets 💫

    How do you feel knowing the universe is always operating in your favour?

    That worrying won’t get you anywhere but into a spiral 🌀

    Let the universe show you how loved and supported you are, if you give it a chance 🌟

  • Open your heart

    On opening your heart...

    Opening your heart is messy.

    Opening your heart means expansion.

    Opening your heart means letting it all in – the good, the hard, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful.

    Opening your heart means being vulnerable, to not only be fully seen but fully felt too.

    Opening your heart can be complicated, confusing and conflicting to the mind, it is not logical.

    Opening your heart means softening in love, thawing and melting your protective walls.

    Opening your heart is to be brave.

    Opening your heart means to take on the world with your strength and courage.

    Expansion...

    It might feel like your heart is closed and breaking, when really it is expanding 🌹

    Opening something as divine as your heart isn’t easy or simple, it’s messy, raw yet beautiful.

    Sometimes following your heart leads to the path less taken, yes to it breaking but in shattering your heart opens — it expands.

    Tell me, what is your heart saying to you right now?

  • It’s time for you to shine

    Go for it NOW

    I think you should go for it.

    Feel the fear trembling in your body.

    Feel the beat of your heart pulsing.

    Feel your hands shaking with nerves.

    Feel your thoughts racing.

    If there’s one thing I know that hurts, it isn’t if it doesn’t work out – it is regret.

    Wondering what could have been.

    Unfulfilled potential.

    Ignoring your intuition.

    So if you have been waiting for a sign, here it is.

    Go for it.

    What if everything you desire and dream of, is on the other side of this powerful decision?

    Don’t dance around the edges, take a deep breath and dive in, go all in.

    It's your time

    It’s time for you to shine 🦁✨🚀

    It’s time for you to step into the spotlight.

    It’s time for you to follow your heart and soul.

    It’s your time.

    2023.

    Let’s GO 🔥

  • You are stronger than you think

    Life is tough but so are you

    Maybe right now it feels like there is no way that you will be able to get through what you’re going through.

    It is my hope that you remember this.

    Your track record in surviving tough times and hard days is perfect because you are still here.

    You made it.

    I know there are big battles and waging wars within you that no one will ever know or see.

    Even if no one recognises your progress, it does not mean there hasn’t been any made.

    Give yourself the recognition you deserve.

    Your growth and wins won’t always be visible and loud.

    Nor do they need to be.

    Quiet revolutions.

    Who knows what will happen in the future, no one can be certain but one thing is for sure… you have this moment here right now.

    Take it day by day because life gets easier this way.

    Don't forget yourself...

    life is tough but so are you 👊🏽💥 you won’t always hear the cheering or applause but you know within yourself the incredible wins you are having whether big or small 🚀

    take a moment to recognize all that you’ve been through and how despite it all you continue to better yourself and create a beautiful life you love to live.

    I think that is so brave 🫶🏽

    Even when life couldn’t harden you, you remain beautifully strong and graceful.

    You continue to listen to your heart and see the best in people… don’t forget yourself.
