I have learned in working with women that we each have at least two parts of ourselves that show up often.
The part that feels small, like an “imposter”. The part that can never be enough.
I’ve felt this in my own body, and it can feel like this dark, closing in sensation. Falling. Never to return.
Then there is the part that is so powerful. I often find this place in my womb; it is the Ocean. Vast, mysterious and wise. I know when I can be in this place in my body that I am not “weird”, or if I am indeed *different*…..it is a “different” that needs to be let out and shown to the world!
In working with women as they inquire into their bodies I see a lot of this as a witness.
The place of power that resides within us that reminds us BE YOU, BE LOUDER, BE BOLDER.
I’m reminded not only to not hide, but to expand. Be me.
And I’ve learned that sometimes the best indicator of my authenticity is that some people are turned off.
It’s true for you too; without purposely trying to offend anyone else, when you are really you in all your shiny colors and sparkles and you say what you mean and you mean what you say…..
People will find you. And some people will leave.
On a newsletter note, I love seeing unsubscribes. Weird. I love it. It feels like….relief. If you don’t resonate with my magic, please go! It’s better for everyone.
I love seeing these different parts come out in the same woman. For me, I have learned that the “small” part doesn’t have to go. She’s ok too. But the bolder, more ME part is welcome to come even more forward.
What light in you are you not shining? What words are you not saying? What truth are you not speaking?
Feel into those two parts and tell me how your life shifts at all.
Just notice.
Both parts need us.
