This video very much describes my journey. In 2019, my life came to a screeching halt. My dreams imploded and I was left “stumbling around in the rubble”, as Winsome Clark puts it in Katherine Genet’s books.
I can fully see that was where my greatest transformation began. I have dipped my toes into the ancient way my entire life not knowing it. But it was while working in a clinical environment that I started to see the corruption and manipulation of the healing community. Both western medicine (I was a medical assistant) and the alternative healing world (I was a wellness coach) both exhibit the same profiteering behaviors. They are businesses.
Businesses that don’t welcome ethical, honest people with a heart for justice.
When I left the clinic, I thought it broke me. I thought I had burned to ashes. But something rose from that. As Morghan puts it, you rebuild. And I did. Unknowingly, I began exploring myself and applying my knowledge to my life instead of just teaching someone else’s content. As a wellness coach, I didn’t feel my personal experience with my own health mattered to anyone. And maybe it doesn’t. But the wisdom I now teach, does.
I vowed to be the best in my field. Not in an arrogant way, but in a safety net sort of way. A soul that desires healing would have a safe, competent place to land. Not to extort money but to exchange energy. Both sides must be in relationship with the other.
I found that a soul not ready for healing does the bare minimum. They lie about doing the work, yet their symptoms and behavior give them away. They pay the fee without usurping the value. I offer wellness, peace, and stability for those ready to commit enough self-respect to their body.
I started seeing the patterns and how what came out of the mouth never matched the effort put in. I saw victims crying that it was too hard. I saw women abused that refused to let go of the very thing destroying them. But everyone wants the healing.
I know people personally that pout that they suffer daily and yet they never make the effort to change it for themselves. I say that I can’t do it for them. I give everything I have and it is not received. They abandon themselves because it is easier to be uncomfortable than to grow.
I have learned the hard way that my basic emotional needs will only ever be met by me and only me. But I still reach out and touch the web daily as I wish health and happiness for humanity. I just can’t take their misery on myself. I did that and it almost undid me.
These days, the wishy washy don’t care for me. Those that love me say I’m too much for them. Those that hate me feel I expect too much out of them. And yet, I see them. I see them exactly how they are. All the muck and darkness in most hurts my heart and yet, I’m powerless to help them beyond showing them my light. I can love them without taking on their low vibe energies. I can love them from a place of rootedness in their hurricane.
I over-gave my entire life until 2019. That all changed when I lost it all and became the Wise Woman. ❤️
