Have you ever suffered from a physical ailment that held you back in life? Maybe it was a sprained ankle. Maybe it was cancer. Of course, these examples vary in severity, but they share one commonality: physical pain. And physical pain is hard to ignore. A couple of months ago, I was dealing with intense back pain. My body kept seizing – it was as though I was having a physical reaction to the unknown. My nervous system was shot. And my body was sending me a message, telling me to slow down. Has this ever happened to you before? What if your physical pain is actually your body calling to you, telling you to find a different way? 🤷♀️ I’m not talking about a quick fix here... This isn’t about finding the fastest way to heal, so you can return to your OLD patterns. What if your pain isn’t just something to overcome, and instead it’s here to shift your entire way of being? ✨ Often, the physical ailment you’re suffering from is actually caused by other issues that have been building up behind the scenes. Maybe it’s been forming for years, and your body has tried sending you messages before but they’ve gone unnoticed. You’ve been living in the discomfort for so long that you’ve become numb to the pain. Now, your body has to take more drastic measures to get the message across. And it’s up to you to answer the call. ☎️ What if it’s not about trying to fix your body, and instead letting your body fix you? 🤯 After all, your body isn’t out to get you. Just like the universe isn’t “testing” you. It’s here to work with you. Every experience is guiding you towards your next best step. It’s reminding you who you are, and showing you how to step into the highest version of yourself. But first, you have to get out of your own way. You have to stop trying to figure it all out. Instead, you must surrender to the unknown. That’s where the miracles are – in the surrender. It’s the ultimate form of expansion and growth. I created this 4-week surrender mini-course to help you master the art of surrender. If you’re looking to make a big shift in your life and business before the end of the year, it starts right here, right now. ⬇️ Xox,

This one simple question has changed everything for me. “What would my higher self do?” When you’re faced with a difficult situation or conflict—whether big or small, it’s easy to slip into reaction as opposed to awareness. For example, my partner and I had a disagreement the other day. Honestly, looking back, it was so silly. A comment was said and we both interpreted it in a completely different way. It wasn’t a big deal at all, but it took a whole two hours for us to move through it. We were in public at the time, we were distracted by our external environment, and we weren’t able to pause and identify what was going on within us. Does this sound familiar? Maybe you can think of a recent conflict that escalated unnecessarily. Perhaps someone did something that was upsetting to you, and you found yourself reacting out of anger. What would happen if, in the moment, instead of reacting you took a pause and asked yourself: Why am I having this reaction? What’s actually happening right now? Why am I feeling this way? What do I need here? How can I best communicate this to this person? It sounds simple, but as you know, when emotions are high it can be challenging to put this into practice. It’s a habit that needs to be formed. It takes time and intention. 🧘♀️ This is why I am always asking myself: How would my highest self show up in this situation? Because the truth is, my highest self doesn’t actually care about the silly comment. She wouldn't even react. She would just keep on walking, doing her own thing, living in her bliss. ✨ Our human is always looking to keep us safe and protect us. Often, this means it cares way too much about issues that don’t actually matter. Or it leads us to judge and gossip about others in an attempt to fit in and feel accepted. ❌ The next time you find yourself judging someone else, looking at their outfit and thinking, What are they wearing? Why would they do that?, tune into your highest self. How would she respond to the situation?I bet she wouldn’t even care. She’d let them live their life because she’d be so focused on her own path that she wouldn’t even notice. 🔥 In order to channel your higher self, you need to get really comfortable with the vision of who this higher self is. 🔮 What does she look like? What does she feel? Who does she show up as? Ask yourself: How am I showing up in comparison to my highest self? Rank yourself on a scale of 1-10. It’s okay if you’re not at a 10 yet. But it’s important to recognize… You can’t manifest your deepest desires when you’re operating from a 5. Trust the process. Love yourself through it. Take the imperfect, inspired action. Do the work that needs to be done to heal. ❤️ I can help with that. I have three resources designed to meet you where you are in your journey and help you identify and step into your highest self. Sending love,
