This morning I was reminded that the Universe rewards the courageous. 

It shows up for those that are bold enough to show up for themselves.

I will spare you all of the details, but as of late, it has felt like the world has been completely stacked against me.

I have EVERY reason to be sad, scared, stuck.

As I have reaffirmed my trust for whatever may lie ahead, I've simultaneously restored faith within myself. 

Abundance is showing up EVERYWHERE.

Because I am able to walk away from what isn't meant from me, I am consciously (and unconsciously) bringing myself THAT. MUCH. CLOSER. to all that is.

Remember that in your darkest of moments, happiness is a CHOICE. 

Don't expect success and joy to come your way when your vibration isn't currently matched with those energies.

I can confidently say that thinking/acting this way isn't always easy- in fact, it's hard and has taken me MANY years of spiritual practice.

But it's a commitment I've made to myself because ONLY I am...

Trust.

That’s the word I chose for this year.

Admittedly, I had seen this trend circle around the gram for quite a bit, but something struck me this time around. 

I knew it was imperative to anchor myself into what I wanted/needed most for 2021 and beyond.

So, as I move into the months that lay ahead, TRUST is all that I hope to embody.

Trust in myself.

Trust in the process (and the pain.)

Trust that everything can (and WILL) turn out better than I am even capable of imagining possible right now.

It has been an incredibly challenging and tumultuous year for us all; truthfully, I don’t think any of us was spared from uncertainty or some sort of loss.

What I’ve learned is that when our faith has been shaken, it is EVEN more critical to stay grounded in our spiritual practices- to restore our belief in the beauty that awaits us.

I may not know for sure what the near or distant future holds, but I intend to stay ruthlessly devoted to my TRUST in the Universe and...

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• To gain clarity around your motive for wanting to get up earlier. You need to want to get up and out of bed. As an adult, it’s time to take ownership and responsibility!

• Alternatives for your alarm clock (natural sleep light- less tempted to scroll in the AM)

"Live life like everything is ruled in your favor because it is." Rumi

Following the movements of the moon, stars, and the cosmos has brought me so much peace and renewed perspective over this past year. 

As the sun moves into Capricorn this morning, honoring the Winter Solstice (aka the shortest day of the year), we can anticipate feeling a super-powerful transit today; moving from a time of relentless ambition to a time of spiritual evolution and growth. 

As we wake up to the first day of the last cardinal season of this year, with it, we welcome new beginnings. 

It's now time to focus on your souls' journey, realizing your innate potential and the infinite possibilities that exist for you as a spiritual being- while helping others to do the same.

Because Jupiter and Saturn meet in Aquarius, added into the energy of this season is the idea of embracing change, urging us to have faith in Divine timing and the mystery of our existence, which often unfolds unexpectedly...

If you have breath in your lungs, you have opportunity.

Let that one sink in.

I know what I’m about to share might sting a bit, but if that’s the case, trust me when I say you need to hear this message now more than ever before.

Repeat after me:
I am where I am; because I put myself here.

Stop blaming, complaining, comparing, or justifying the reason behind your lack of abundance and scarcity mindset.

None of these actions is serving you.

Wealth boils down to you becoming intentional about your spending.

It’s not about how much $ you earn; it’s about how you CHOOSE to spend it.

Time to take ownership and stand in radical responsibility.

Acknowledge where you’re at, accept what you can no longer control, and align with the habits/routines that will set you up for success moving forward.

Instead of fighting for the obstacles you’re tired of, decide to overcome and seek opportunity intentionally.

No one is going to show up and do the work for you- if you...

1. Listen to your heart- no one knows what’s best for you like you do!

2. Dream big.

3. Refuse to follow the crowd (& stop dimming your light because others are afraid to shine!)

4. Become a student of the game because learners = earners.

5. Be willing to look REALLY stupid. (Failure is a part of the process with success usually waiting for you right on the edge of defeat!)

6. Stay wildly consistent.

7. Provide massive value and unmatched service to those around you.
