After years of feeling disempowered by parental units, the education system and society at large, for various reasons, small inflictions and caveats to seemingly who I was and what I did, I’ve always felt disempowered. Can you imagine a girl with very strong opinions, and a solid moral high ground fitting into a society that says “you can’t do this, you can’t say that, watch your tone”. Every where I stepped was a landmine just waiting to explode into “not rights and “you don’t belongs”.
Spending my late 20’s and most of my 30’s pulling away at the threads of trauma and discovering who I am and finally understanding that it’s safe to come out and be wholey 100% me, I’ve come to want to ensure no woman feels the same as I did. Disempowered by life. Disempowered to discover the true her. As I embark upon this life path which only recently has become clearer the more I walk it, I’ve discovered what for now feels like my calling, is education and teaching.
So this will be a place where I share what I know about where I feel like I’m headed. Themes will include all things metaphysical and quantum physics. By no means am I a professional at anything, these are my musings that I believe in, until someone can counteract that opinion or teachings with new ones. Not only do I want to educate, but I wish to be educated as well. The more I travel through life, and the more I learn, the more I realise at how much of a baby I am, and how little I know. The problem is, I want to learn everything. Probably too much for this one lifetime.
I’ll be putting up books for purchase that I believe in, or has guided me to become a fuller expression of myself. The permission slip we all need sometimes to say that we’re amazing just the way we are. That we’re all a unique expression of what the world needs right now. How innately human we are. How beautiful that is. How perfect that is. To step back into the perfection of what we came here for. To assist humanity in our own unique way. To trust and deliver our fullest, most authentic selves. To be empowered.
