Hey,
I'm here for a gift-post!

Last summer:
⏩⏩⏩ This past year has brought me huge lessons in learning to refine my ability to sustain my focus no matter what’s going on around me. I have had to triage the emotional energy in the house and make strong choices about whether I need to jump into the current emotional fray or not. It’s been good for me to deepen the mastery of my own boundaries.
But I certainly have struggled with focus on some days. It’s easy when there is a lot of emotional energy to justify bailing on your momentum and your focus.
👉 When you’re an entrepreneur (or self-employed or working from home), you’re kind of in charge of your own focus. There isn’t always someone, like a boss or co-workers, to hold you accountable for showing up and staying on task.
One of the big reasons I’m such a big fan of writing out Life Purpose Mission Statements and Manifestos is that having a Big Why for my work is essential in order to keep moving forward when the environment is** emotionally “sticky”**.
👌 You need something bigger than "freedom" - or even the money - to call you forward in your life. This is true whether you have your own business, stay at home to raise your family, or have a job.
❔❔❔
What do you serve? Who do you serve? Why are you doing this? What's the Big Reason?
These are essential questions to ask yourself as you create your life.
⏩⏩⏩ Because S**T IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
I guarantee it.
Partners leave or fail to show up. Babies are born or sick or need something or have to be schooled or need tuition. Dogs die. You get COVID. You get cancer. Your parents get sick and die. You lose electricity. The USB port on your computer connecting your speaker when you need to record a class will break.
S**T WILL HAPPEN.
And you have to keep going.🚶🚶🚶
You have to trust that not only will you endure and get it done, but you'll also figure out the workaround. You'll release the "How" to Source. BUT YOU WILL FIGURE OUT THE WORKAROUND WITH NO EXCUSES.
🌏 That's the real deal with fulfilling your Life Purpose. It’s not really about knowing what your purpose is. When people get a reading with me and they tell me they feel validated it’s because they actually already KNOW their Life Purpose. The problem is they’re not seeing their Life Purpose in the context of the bigger plan - the Cosmic Plan.
And they’re not making choices in alignment with fulfilling their Purpose.
To live your Purpose you need to do to things:
🍀🍂🍃 Heal - You need to clear any limiting believes or traumas that are keeping you from standing strong in your value and assuming your Right Place in the world.
👊 Commit - You have to see the value of your purpose clearly enough to commit to fulfilling it without compromise. Because fulfilling your purpose doesn’t include compromise. Your Life Purpose doesn’t ask you to pick one thing over another. It’s inclusive and harmonious. The Age of Martyrdom is over.
Seriously. If you're committed you'll do the work. You'll access the support you need to get the work done. And if you're really, really clear, you'll get the work done AND tend to the priorities of your Heart. You don't have to choose one or the other if you're clear. You can totally have it all.
It’s not about the hustle. It’s about the alignment and the call forward.
It's in that place of alignment that true magic - and the "work" - happens.
I encourage you to play with these big questions this week. I’m curious to hear what insights you have!
Have a great Purpose-full weekend!
From my Heart to Yours,
