Personal Growth
Where I dish on the inner work required to manifest everything we desire in the outer world.
There’s deeply personal work to be done if we want to feel fulfilled across all areas of life.
This is your starting point for pivoting to an intentional life rife with growth.
Inner work.
It’s where the magic lies. And since you’re here, I’ve got an inkling you’re willing to do the inner work required to brew magic in your life.
Our outer world is a direct reflection of our inner world.
People and situations are mirrors for us to learn more about ourselves and to grow through pain and suffering.
Humaning is all about the highs and the lows–and how fluidly we can move between them.
Growing personally means learning to fully acknowledge, accept, and allow our humanness.
These articles and resources are designed to help you do just that.
Feeling reflective?
A quick practice for gaining perspective, so you can think more clearly. (Come back for this one as often as you’d life).
1. What am I noticing in my body?
2. What am I making this sensation mean?
3. What feels familiar about this situation? What is it reminding me of?
4. What is different about this situation?
5. How do I want to respond?
Proceed with perspective.
