Life comes full circle. We go out to “find ourselves” and develop a strong sense of Self and, then, much to our surprise we find ourselves going back to certain aspects of our childhood. Whether it’s religion, tradition, ritual, food…once we lay down our sword and let go of the past, these features become less threatening.
It’s Safe to Bring Some Aspects Back In!

It’s safe…
I knew this logically but in my body I didn’t feel that it was safe. I couldn’t yell about past issues, only cry. Didn’t want to bring up issues with others that might offend or hurt them and in turn hurt myself.
What I felt and understood after working with Gina and the Sole Purpose coaches was that I was hurting myself by not being true to those feelings and saying those truths to the world around me. My direction in life is changing with every truthful step I take. I am greeted with beautiful friends that understand and compliment the path that I am walking. We walk together yet with out the constant need of each others guidance. I have begone to let go of certain aspects of my past which made me feel that I should walk with people even if not in my direction. I pushed certain aspects away because they had the bad feelings of consequences from my past. Speaking my truth would hurt in the past. I remember feeling free to speak at points in my life and then feeling scared of speaking my truth.
I am now bringing it back and my truth is me. I am walking a path that is right for me not others and if they are a part of that path I love that they are there.
So as for today I am bringing some aspects back in to my life and enjoying that I am me!!!
These thoughts are so true … it all goes back to returning to your authentic self. I did this after spending 20+ years in an aspect of my profession that I was “pushed” into. Now I have come full circle and have returned to my true calling … working 1:1 with women. I feel like I have come home and it feels so cozy! I wish I had developed my trust muscle earlier in life yet glad I have “pumped” it up now!
So beautiful – I am so glad to hear you are continuing the work!
Welcome home!
