False doors and open hearts

In a world where we often carry the weight of our past wounds, it’s easy to believe that our worth resides in the hurt we’ve endured. We find ourselves standing at a false door—a barrier created to protect our hearts but one that keeps us from truly seeing the depth of our potential and desires.

The path to self-discovery calls for balance and harmony with both our past and present. To grow, we must learn to walk away from the pain that no longer serves us, placing self-forgiveness at the forefront and releasing what binds us to the stories of who we once were.

We build walls around our hearts, thinking we’re shielding ourselves from harm. But these walls do more than protect—they isolate. While we may keep hurt out, we also block love, opportunity, and truth from coming in. Our journey is not about avoiding pain but about courageously facing it, knowing we are strong enough to endure and heal.

Harmony comes from understanding that our past does not define our worth. Every experience—joyful or painful—has shaped the incredible beings we are today. By reflecting on past experiences rather than clinging to them, we create space for new opportunities to flow into our lives.

When we stop guarding our hearts so fiercely, we begin to see clearly what we truly desire. Whether it’s love, purpose, or a deeper connection to our intuition, we allow ourselves to ask, “What do I truly want? What fulfills me?”

When we align with our inner truth and let our intuition guide our path, we find that desires born of fear fall away. What remains are the pursuits that light our souls on fire.

The most profound connections—both with others and with ourselves—come when we let down our walls and trust that the universe is guiding us toward our highest good. Healing is not about erasing the past but about integrating its lessons with grace and compassion.

Remember, your worth does not live in the wounds of yesterday but in the light you allow to shine today. You have the power to release, forgive, and align with your true self. The universe is waiting to meet you where you are, ready to co-create the life you desire.

A good negotiator

I’m a very good negotiator in my head when it comes to making excuses for why I’m not doing something or feeling a certain way about myself. And, as much as I could and should be kinder to myself, I also feel like sometimes a little tough love can go a long way. Motivational speaker; Mel Robbins often quotes, “No one is coming to save you.” Well, that’s a large dose of OUCH. But, damn, it’s true. Taking responsibility for our present life and future life, changing the way we think, and shifting the feels to rid of negative thinking... it takes work!

But if there is one thing I’ve learned along the way, it’s in breaking things down into doable steps, celebrating every little win along the way, and sharing my victories with those who lift me and support me. So, remember, recognizing and changing your thought patterns, creating action is a process. It’s a journey that requires practice, and where practicing it is key.

Breaking up with my own baggage | Message from Spirit

A question was presented to me in mediation this morning by my spirit guides; Do you know why it feels so uncomfortable to make the changes in life that you want to make?  Because you haven’t broken up with the parts of yourself that are holding you back. It’s time to kick those b*tches out! There’s the door. Me: Laughing, and feeling the sting, all at once.

Breakups are hard, aren't they, when you get comfortable being uncomfortable with ourselves? I love how my spirit guides communicate with me; sometimes, they truly hit me between the eyes with the truth in the most creative ways. "Breaking up with myself"? What??? They are very clever, that's for sure.

And, ohh, the many facets of ourselves and the parts that no longer serve us, which keep us stagnant and often floating when we should be taking the wheel and hitting the gas pedal. If there are parts of you that you wish to change, "I know, it's not easy," as most breakups are, but aren't you worth it? Isn't your happiness and next level worth it? Uh, hells yeah, it is. As I hear my guides whisper in my ear, those self-doubting thoughts need to start planning their exit or be kicked out—not needed. 

Thank you, next. It's time, and again, you are so incredibly worth it.
