See Life Through a Different Lens

These two pictures are an analogy of our consciousness.

We all have false beliefs about ourselves and about the way the world works.

In our earlier years we are unaware of this, it’s like we were wearing the dark glasses that kept the light out so we didn’t see certain parts of ourselves.

We shaped ourselves to be who we thought would be loved and accepted by our loved ones based on those false beliefs.

Then as we grew older that circle extended to other authority figures like our teachers and bosses. We lost sight of who we are.

This doesn’t feel good and we disassociate from the pain we feel through busyness, numbing, avoiding, deflecting and denying there’s anything wrong.

Deep down we want to be seen and heard for who we are but we are wearing the limiting belief glasses and we continue to endure painful experiences.

Because we can’t see who we truly are and therefore no one else can either.

Eventually change finds us, as life always provides opportunities to shake us up, and those dark glasses get knocked off our head and we are temporarily blinded by the light.

That light can be so uncomfortable and often we will retreat back to the comfort of our dark glasses.

But there’s something within us that says, “You are the light, you are the love, there’s more!”

It’s time for a new pair of glasses.

We get to decide if we will listen to that inner voice and we often switch back and forth between glasses.

The rose coloured heart shaped glasses make everything look inviting, and beautiful.

We feel love and hope that we can feel this more often, but our eyes are not used to the intensity of the light and we get hurt and often retreat back to the dark comfortable glasses.

As we do our inner shadow work of exploring and being with those parts of ourselves that were hidden from our view we feel the pain all over again.

But the joy of viewing life through the len of peace, love and happiness keeps calling to us, beckoning us to go deeper.

So we continue to lean into the pain, we get comfortable being uncomfortable and our vulnerability makes us realize we are safe and we get to choose which glasses we want to wear every day we open our eyes to a new day.

Which glasses are you wearing most often?

Are you ready to look at your life through a different lens?

I am a Radical Living Master Coach and healer and I teach my clients how to do the shadow work so they can receive more of the light they truly are.

After seeing others suffer and lose their chance to change I realized life is way too short to waste my time feeling wrong, hiding and feeling sorry for myself, secretly wishing others would change to make my life better.

I got radical and took my healing into my own hands. I connected to the parts of myself that were hiding in fear and shone a light of love and acceptance onto them.

I have let so many false beliefs go and now I have room for the truth to unfold.

It’s my mission to help others upgrade their perspectives of themselves and wear the rose coloured glasses of love.

Does this resonates with you?

Are you ready to heal and open yourself to immense love and acceptance for yourself?

I’m facilitating an online beta group book study and coaching to do the shadow work.

This is the chance for you to work through your false beliefs about yourself, get to know those parts of you that are hidden and radically forgive and accept yourself.

You will learn tools you can continue using when the opportunities to open your heart come up.

Because they will.

We start September 25th, check here to learn more.

Besides impacting the lives of others to ‘be real and love life’ the most powerful thing about the work I get to do is the reflections of the teachings that come back to me. I always receive some type of wisdom, healing or blessing from the experience, whether it’s a private, group session or a speaking event.

Whatever the message is that I’ve conveyed I am somehow reminded of how it applies to me as well and it guides me towards the next stage of my growth.

Being aware of the subtle messages that are being sent to guide us forward is very empowering.

Last weekend at the Soul Full Day conference, I guided a group of 70 women through a visualization meditation to identify and let go of a fear story holding them back from what they truly wanted for their life, freedom to live their love story.

It was remarkable to witness them releasing the fear and claiming their love stories, seeing and feeling themselves living in the higher potential of their dreams.

This week I’ve been deeply reminded of the fear story that I’ve been carrying, ‘not being well enough to live a fulfilling life because my digestive health is failing’.

This is the same story my grandmother carried, and she died in fear with this story in her which was unconsciously passed on to me, and I accepted it.

For 8 years now I’ve been having various challenges with my digestive health. I’ve seen many different professionals and tried many different remedies and lifestyle changes. Some have worked and some haven’t. Over time things seemed to have mostly settled, then just a month ago the issues flared up again in a bigger way.

This brought up the old fear story for me as I prepare for a trip of a lifetime. I’m going to Egypt on a sacred pilgrimage to the visit the lands and ancient sites with 13 other women. This will be my first trip overseas and I’ve always been fascinated with Egyptian history, never thinking I would get the opportunity to visit until it showed up to me. I was very drawn to go, and decided I was going, even though it felt way outside my ability to be able to take such a trip.

Worries and a wide range of emotions have been coming up for me since these flare ups have been happening. My mind races and makes up stories based in old fears.

What if I am not well enough to fully experience this trip? What if I am stuck in my room and miss the tours, or what if I am not able to digest the food there? All that disappointment and money spent if I might not be able to full experience it.

These stories are very similar to what my grandmother used to tell herself. She was afraid to go far from home, let alone on a plane to another country. Everything centred around her digestive limitations and she was petrified of having an ‘accident’ while out in public. These fear stories debilitated her and she became a hermit and was very lonely in her later years.

I will never forget seeing her in the final days of her life living in fear. I visited her almost every day and seeing her like that was very sad because there wasn’t much I could do other than comfort and reassure her that she would be ok.

What it did do was motivate me to face my own fears and not go down the same path as she did. In this regard, she was a great teacher to me and not long after she transitioned I was divinely guided to take the Radical Forgiveness Master Coach 10 day training in Atlanta.

It was a huge step for me, and again way outside my comfort zone, but in the end it was one of the best things I could have done for myself because it set me on the trajectory of facing my fears, and the journey of living my love story.

I am eternally grateful to be on this path of self-forgiveness and self-acceptance just as I am, and in time I have learned to love myself. I’m still on this healing journey however this year I’ve had some major shifts in this area of my life and feel truly worthy and deserving of this love for myself because I have freedom from the fears.

This is where the synchronicity comes in again.

It just so happens that this Friday, the day I fly to Egypt, is the 9 year anniversary of my grandmother’s passing, and it’s a full moon! You just can’t make these things up. I didn’t realize the mysterious alignment of these dates until just a few weeks ago.

In numerology the number 9 represents endings and completions and I have a strong intuitive feeling that this trip is going to be transformational for me as a new beginning.

The other day when I was dancing my grandmother came to my mind, she was dancing with me, and I know she is leaving me these breadcrumb signs to follow to complete this stage of my journey. I made a promise to her that I was going to end the cycle of fear she carried and commit myself to healing into wholeness.

I have no doubt that this is all happening for me, rather than to me. And unlike my grandmother, I will face my fears and take this trip and I will trust in the divine unfoldment of it all.

I am reminded that everything is always working out for me, even if it doesn’t seem that way and she is cheering me on all along the way.

These are the same phrases I spoke to the women when I was on stage just a few days ago and they echo loudly in my mind as the beautiful blessings of having the freedom to live my love story.

If you would like to experience the guided visualization for yourself listen to the audio recording so you too can be free from your fear story and claim your love story.

In my next blog I will share about my travel adventures so stay tuned, and if you would like to be notified when I share it you can join my email Love Letter list at the bottom of this page.

Until next time… thank you for being here.
