Collapse to Clarity

Two years ago, the life I have so carefully curated came to an end.


Words I used to cringe at now have a different meaning.


Spiritual awakening is the shift from identifying with the illusion to identifying with the self.


From


✨Seeking external validation to trusting inner knowing

✨Living by programming to living by resonance

✨ Surviving based on expectations to creating based on soul alignment.


It’s painful. It’s disorienting.


It breaks your heart and reconfigures your nervous system.


You bargain.

You comply.

You hope.

You try.

You doubt.

You grasp.

You chase.

You spiral.

You resist.

You rage.

You cry.

You beg.

You fall.

You scream.

You break.

You crawl.

You burn.


You let go. Because you’ve tried all the blue pills and you finally know.


There’s no going back.


And then…


You breathe.

You listen.

You soften.

You sit.

You see.

You choose.

You rise.

You clear.

You move.

You trust.

You speak.

You shine.


You remember.


You’re not here to perform for the prize.

You are the prize.

Joyful presence is the goal.

When you play your game fully, honestly, instinctively you can’t lose.

Life gets fun again because you’re not trying to become anyone.

You’re just being yourself in new playgrounds.


You surrender.


The work isn’t to fix your world,

do better,

hustle more or work harder.


The work is

To remember you can have anything you desire simple because you desire it.


To remember that

you’re the lock and the key,

you’re the prisoner and the guard,

you’re the rebel and the loyalist.


To know that,

You don’t need a map when your compass is that clear.


You don’t need permission when your bones are vibrating with truth.


You don’t need proof when your deep knowing speaks louder than logic ever could.


Know and watch it all come to you.


Real change doesn’t come from fighting what’s broken. It comes from becoming what’s true.





Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerfull beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.


You playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking, so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were all meant to shine as children do. It’s not just in some of us, it’s in everyone.


And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others the permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
