I see you: a sensitive woman who feels trapped in the mundane. Youโre here for more meaning, magic and purpose, and suspect youโve magical healing โgiftsโ - though that terrifies and overwhelms you, and expressing them feels a million miles away...
I see you, my love. Youโre feeling trapped in your mundane life, numbing yourself to cope with the pain of being a sensitive woman who is stuck feeling overwhelmed on the dull, busy hamster wheel. Youโve burned out in your professional career, and you feel drained from the daily chaos of juggling โlifeโ - youโre constantly putting out fires and living life to make others happy, seeking approval, fearing judgement if you were to just be yourself. Your body is calling to you - with exhaustion, low energy, or pain and numbness - and you feel hyper-vigilant, your nervous system on overdrive.
And, despite creating a level of โouter successโ, your โinner worldโ feels in chaos. You know there is something more meaningful, purposeful and magical to life than this (even if youโre not quite sure what it is). Deep down (if youโll admit it) you suspect you have some kind of healing or magical โgiftsโ; by that, I mean youโve experienced some kind of personal healing or transformation thatโs had a huge impact on your own life and you feel youโre actually here to pass that wisdom on. Perhaps you feel envious of other women making impact and helping others navigate this crazy modern world, because secretly you feel youโd like to be helping others too (and you know you have a โbrillianceโ and depth that could serve others) - but you are terrified and overwhelmed by this idea, especially being a sensitive one. Youโre exhausted, you doubt yourself, you lack confidence and you fear being judged as a โlunaticโ so much that discovering and sharing your gifts feels a million miles away. Youโre wondering โcan I really do something more purposeful?โ, โwhat will my partner, kids and friends think?โ, โhow will I make money?โ and โwill this desire obliterate my whole life?โ
I feel your tender heart.
And the first thing I want you to know is that you are not alone, this is not your fault - and you are not destined to your mundane life. This is a innocent product of the way the world has been - itโs our conditioning into busy lives, where our deep sensitivity - and a magical, juicy life as a healer - just hasnโt been seen as welcome or needed.
If this is you, the secret reason youโre struggling is:
Thereโs still some personal healing to do.
And you can do this at a pace that suits your soul - without having to run away into isolation in the woods and abandon your current life (even though that also feels preferable too, at times, am I right?!).
Iโve walked this path. And thatโs how I know that there are 3 steps you need to lean to take:
HEALING - you need to learn to self-heal your wounds (particularly around the โwounded healerโ)
DISCOVERY - you need to discover and fully embody your unique gifts, and
EXPRESSION - you need to discover how to get your gifts โout thereโ in the world.
You will either feel resistance or lit up to hear this (itโs common for both): but secretly, youโre what I like to call a
โSecret Witchโ
- also known as a secretly sensitive, powerful, wild, magical woman who has the power to create whatever life she desires - including becoming a healer, teacher or guide (whether for herself, or for others) - but who doubts herself and stays safe in her mundane life, for approval, control and security.
Until now, at least.
Because I see you, still here, reading this, so courageously and I know - just like me - you didnโt come here to settle for a small, overwhelmed, unfulfilling, mundane life. You came here for a deeper purpose. To live a life of meaning, connection and magic, in which you make impact in the world.
I feel your heart because Iโve journeyed this myself. So letโs breathe deeply, as you love this activated part of your inner little girl and let her know sheโs safeโฆ.
I know youโve been sold โquick fixesโ until now and you may also feel a little โburnedโ by that - and thatโs why my path is one of integrity and wholeness, rather than โfixingโ. There are no โquick fixesโ here - no promises of becoming a healer โovernight.โ Just a loving invitation to begin where you are. Iโm here to hold you through as you follow the inner nudges at your own pace. Which means you donโt have to quit your job and make big bold leaps just yet; you can simply meet yourself where you are, and start walking now - building the foundations by doing the work.
