"If your soul is calling you to this path, listen to it. Follow your heart - your soul knows. You can create your soul desires.  And you are worthy of creating your soul desires. You're worthy of this support."

~ Olivia Roff

Is your own worthiness getting in the way of you becoming a healer, teacher or guide?

One of the most common objections I hear from my women is their deep sense of unworthiness to soften and live from soul, and step into something more meaningful and magical.  They often feel they are here only to live life for others, rather than to create their dreams.  I know this one well, because I have struggled with feeling worthy in my own journey, and I know how hard this particular fear can feel to choose past.

" I am here to help you create a life that is in total soul alignment with the healer, teacher or guide you were born to be - and ironically, I see that creating abundance happens as a direct consequence the deeper we step into alignment, but it’s a byproduct and bonus of the deeper richness of truly living your purpose."

"But I can't" = a call to your magical power...  

Musings on the common money fear magical women who are here to be healers, teachers and guides often feel…

I hear so many women say "I feel so called to this... But I can't". And oh my heart do I understand that feeling more than you could believe.

I've felt the lack of possibility, the hopelessness, the trappedness in my life. I've felt the lack of belief in my own power. I've felt the mistrust in life and the need to micromanage and stay as I am. I've felt the tension, the tightness of the contraction.

And sometimes I still do.

"I had no trust, back when I had a paralysed face, that I could heal myself (even though I had done it before, a million times over, and healed others) - and yet, taking the deepest plunge yet into trusting my body wisdom, even when it was terrifying had me not only heal my supposedly ‘incurable’ face, but it was also the initiation that had me discover my deepest purpose…  These portals often are."

Unfurling into our body wisdom...  🌹💃

Today, I remembered back to a time three years ago when, despite  having a great deal of wisdom about listening to my body (it’s been a lifetime’s initiation for me), I was still unconsciously choosing to ignore it - and it left me with an entirely paralysed face on the right side.

It was mid-pandemic and I was about to give birth and I’d been pushing and forcing my way through life, despite knowing that there was a deeper intelligence to life - a universal wisdom in my body - that was growing my baby.  

I was still ignoring the wise nudges of my body saying “slow down, please”.  And because of that, my body manifested numbness (quite literally).

"I hope you will go out and let stories happen to you, and that you will work them, water them with your blood and tears and laughter till they bloom. Till you, yourself, burst into bloom."

Yesterday the scared 'Secret Witch' in me (who doesn't know her own power and magic) had been feeling some contraction, some fear, some uncertainty. She was full of self-doubt and sadness, grief and loss because there's a lot to hold at the moment. I know we all feel that, collectively.

And a few years back I'd have just either spun deeper and deeper down, or bypassed how I was feeling entirely.

I found myself reflecting, later, on what was different about how I hold that now, and I started to honour the powerful part of myself.

Firstly, instead, I cancelled anything I'd planned for the afternoon to simply sit in the garden listening to the birds, journaling, journeying with my inner child. Letting my tears fall, feeling, healing and alchemising by being with what was there.

Being with my little girl.
