And.......there it is.......

I have been writing about the next layer perspective that has arrived under the light of the big and beautiful moon we just had......and not needing the external validation of my experience to make it so......and knowing my own story so deeply.....that no matter what other narratives spin it matters not.....and I have surrendered over and over to accepting the apologies that have yet to come, or may never come........learning to forgive in that space, while also being so rooted in my mission and my purpose.......no time to worry about the rest.....and yesterday, despite not needing the confirmation, I received it, from two separate places.....one of the I GOT YOU Girl's moms texted me to say that she has really felt the workshops have helped her daughter's confidence, and that she hasn't heard her say anything negative about herself in months.....which was why she had originally signed her up! And THERE IT IS.....my why in tangible form.......one life, one story, one place to hold space for the human condition, and repeat.......and then my good friend sent me a message, she and I don't get to see each other as much as I wish....she started a new job and her schedule is more challenging......but she sent me a message about being proud of me and loving watching me grow into my life coach role, and that I have a gift for understanding, encouraging, and helping others see the best in themselves. And about the difference I am making and will continue to make in the girl's lives, and the women I work with etc.....and it was so sweet and appreciated. We all want to feel SEEN by the people we meet or love right?? I think that is human.....especially when purpose burns in our belly......but when both of those came yesterday, it was a reminder that I didn't NEED it. Not that it isn't lovely and of course I want to know, I want feedback both good, and constructive, always......but my point is I am so steady in what I know to be true, that nothing can rattle that....and it was sorta like a divine wink having those messages come yesterday amid this work I have been doing:) And I feel the impact that is being made in the workshops I have held, and that is so worth the effort I have put in....and each day I am just so grateful that I was called to live a life that serves others, and that I still feel so passionate about all of it:) I still love teaching, and by the way 5th grade has been great! I still miss my team and my 4th grade people, but I am enjoying the age level......more than I thought I might in fact.....and I am learning so many new things which I love......and I am guessing the times I felt I needed to have somebody mirror that something was OK for me, or that I was, stemmed from a lack of confidence in myself, or a lack of knowing myself....and those two God winks yesterday were so appreciated amid that understanding.....like KEEP GOING GIRL:) And that is the plan indeed! November needs to find me buckling down, not so much frolicking lol:), and getting dates on the calendar for the new year, and my new workshops, and what I am offering to women.....and I will be featured on a Podcast right before Thanksgiving that is a business building one...with somebody whose Podcast has been picked up by a bigger company. And it will give me a larger platform for my business........And there are some business back office stuff I need to sit down to do.....that is an area where I need to grow.....I love the working with the people part, and wish I did not have to attend to all the rest lol:) But there are some things I need to fine tune, and sit down to do to move forward! Next week I give those workshops at my school district, meal prepping as a form of self -care for their wellness day......which will get me in front of more people and allow for me to share more of what I am passionate about.....November feels like a month where I need to take advantage of the time that is there to ready myself for where I want to GO in 2027! And so I will take those messages yesterday as cosmic love letters, that I am right where I am supposed to be, which I tend to be on any given day;-) Enjoy your day! xoxo
