I've been off social media for the past week.

What have I been doing? Well, I'm glad you asked.
Mostly I've been doing a lot of hardcore crying (hello long, dark Seattle winter, serotonin deficiency, peri-menopause, 6 months of intense migraines, year 3 of covid). If you know me, you know that I cry a lot normally. I cry when I'm happy, sad, having any kind of feeling basically...but this winter...whew.

But also, I've been listening. Listening to my intuition.

Having gone through major shifts with my health and business in 2021...I decided I needed a major overhaul at the beginning of this year. I was feeling overwhelmed by thinking about creating goals or intentions because I couldn't get clear on what I needed at a deeper level. My mind kept going around and around keeping me in what I felt like I "should" do.

So I asked my intuition 2 questions:

1. If you are REALLY, REALLY HONEST, what do you most want to FOCUS ON this year?

2. What do you KNOW that you need to SAY NO TO this year?

I recommend sitting in a quiet place, getting into a calm state, and trying to focus on wherever you feel a connection in your body. Maybe even journaling or freewriting a bit beforehand can help. And if you are really honest with yourself, after you do this exercise, you may feel a bit of resolution. You might even feel scared. But you will have your focus for the year.

Here is a bonus question you can ask:
"What is the next, best step for me to take in order to move towards this thing?"

Simple, right? I know it's never as simple as it sounds. The difficult part comes in trusting ourselves as we move down that path towards making those things happen. I believe in you, your intuition is your GPS guiding you towards your most authentic life path!

The other thing that I've been doing this week is connecting with friends (and doctors) for support. That support has been ESSENTIAL for me these past two years.

If you need help along the way, I am here to support you. I've just opened up 2 SPOTS for my 6 MONTH COACHING PACKAGE and I have other helpful one-on-one options for creatives who want to trust their intuition to reach their dreams. Just message me if you are curious!
