If you are feeling unmotivated or uninspired, if you are stuck minimizing and hiding from your natural gifts, this episode is for YOU. You have these gifts for a REASON.

This episode will get you fired up, calling you back into your power and ACTIVATING you to be brave in the face of the fear we all experience as we face our goals and dreams. You are someone’s cheat code.

You are here to UNLOCK something powerful in the collective. NOT keep your gifts to yourself, hiding and playing small when you know that there is something bigger calling you, longing for you just as much as you long for it.

You are not here to be silent and convenient for the status quo or those who don’t support you. You are an EXPANDER. You are here to break rules and break the mould that has been given to you, to truly make it your own, and to support the collective in our collective healing journey.

What if: you have these gifts for a reason. And the reason is NOT simply your own self-actualization, but the realization of more love, healing, community, creativity (insert what you are here to help cause) for ALL of us. We need you in your power, bestie! We love you. I love you.

if you dream of writing, there are people dreaming of reading you.

if you dream of singing, there are people dreaming of hearing you.

if you dream of being seen, there are people dreaming of seeing you.

if you dream of teaching, there are students dreaming of being taught by you.

your dreams are dreaming you back. even more: the collective is dreaming THROUGH YOU. Question for you: Who might be dreaming you back?
