When the earth is shifting underneath your feet, and you're under pressure, what parts of you become revealed? Especially when what bubbles up from under the surface are your innermost fears. What do you do when the pressure of life forces you to face your deepest fears?

If you bend, surrender, and not break, you can hurdle over these stumbling blocks while reinventing old belief systems and ways of being that need to be released in order to move forward, aligning you with your intentions in a more authentic way.

That's the story of how my year has gone. I can't express the number of events and circumstances that appeared in my life, affecting my family and I. They were painful and emotionally devastating all at the same time. Yet, somehow these situations made me more passionate about my life path. Because everyone goes through things and my life is no different.

It made me grateful to have the systems I coach, at the ready, to process the thoughts of guilt and shame for letting my clients down. The fear that I somehow failed to fulfill my dreams of guiding others. I felt lost and alone because my dreams seemed smaller as my life circumstance got bigger. Have you ever felt like this?

Confronting new growth, stepping beyond what reality says it is, and daring to knock down the illusions provided me the opportunity to step back and look at it all from a higher vantage point; once I gained balance and clarity from here, I was able to see better way at pursuing my dreams. So, I let go of the dream and my way of going about fulfilling it along with the old belief systems I had about it so that I could create a new version that was more aligned with what I deserved.

My circumstances also gave me much pause to heal within. As a healer, I put so much into helping others and giving until I had nothing to give my daughter or my life.

Many of you don't know this but I work 10-14 hours a day, seven days a week. My desire to shift and heal others brought on physical exhaustion. Yet there was no one there for me. I'm not complaining. But I hear many of my clients struggling to come to terms when they are giving themselves to others, despite their own needs. I didn't realize I was doing the same; only I was justifying it as a "Higher Purpose." But, indeed, it is the same.

So, as my world, life purpose, and all that I sacrificed came crashing down, I realized I would do it all over again. For those on the path of light and love, growth is not something we can resist. We shouldn't always be reactive to reality. Many times, these situations, events, and circumstances are the answers to our prayers, only we're too stubborn attempting to hold on to the past version of ourselves which no longer serves where we desire to go or obtain.

I know all too well that when things are crumbling down, I shouldn't linger with thoughts and feelings of fear. It's easy to wonder why bad things are happening to you. It's Universal Law that you accept accountability for the energy you put into motion and take responsible actions to heal yourself and the environment where the energy is present. But never do so by undermining your worth and your happiness. Being responsible for your energy in the world is appropriate, but colluding with fear or allowing others to inflict pain or blame on you isn't.

I now absolutely positive, in no uncertain terms, I will continue all that I do because I sincerely love helping others discover their voice, develop their dreams, realize their passions, connect with their soulmate and heal the wounds they can't. I wouldn't trade or change not one day of my life. I love everything I do. And when you decide whether or not you're going to allow yourself to undermine your heart and dreams, you may conclude that the fierce light inside of you deserves to shine.
