With a global pandemic, heightened awareness about social injustices and police brutality, it’s been a roller coaster for us all but the good news is…..WE’RE STILL STANDING!
The fact that we’ve made it to October reminds me of how resilient the human spirit is. On a personal note, I’ve had the honor of having some extra life changes sprinkled on top of an already turbulent year.
Last year, two intuitive psychics and one numerologist foresaw “555” for me which means that major changes were coming. I was told that 2020 would be the most difficult year of my life. Guess what? They were right!
It began with a decision to separate from my husband (yep, I followed my own insight from “The Goodbye Guide”-more on this later). A couple of weeks after that, I had a car accident (I wasn’t hurt but my Jeep took a hit). A couple of weeks after that, I rushed my husband to the ER due to a stroke). The next day, we went into escrow on our condo we were selling.
A few weeks after that, I got a call from my doctor re: an open surgery time slot that I desperately needed to relieve the chronic pain that I lived with from adenomyosis and fibroids. Throughout my recovery, I still managed to work on my dissertation, schedule PT and SLP appointments for my husband, make arrangements to get repairs done on our condo in preparation for closing and pack up in preparation for our move. Speaking of move, I also decided to bid adieu to San Diego and head north to Los Angeles to begin again.
Woo! I’m exhausted just writing about it. Anyhoo, most of these transitions were the result of some pretty intense soul searching and manifestation. I had some tough decisions to make in my eternal journey for self-advocacy and designing (and redesigning) my life with an end goal of fulfilling my soul purpose.
As we enter the fourth and final quarter of the year, I encourage you to do some soul searching about your own life design. Take inventory of your current life experience.
- What mindsets have held you back this year?
- Are you practicing consistent self-care (and no, I don’t just mean bubble baths and manicures)
- Are you working someplace where you are celebrated (not just tolerated)?
- Have you outgrown friendships or romantic relationships that you still hold on to?
- Are you making excuses and justifications for people who behave badly?
- Are you tolerating stuff that just doesn’t sit well with your spirit?
- Are you steadfast in protecting your boundaries?
- Hell, for that matter are you honoring the boundaries you’ve created for yourself?
I ask myself these type of questions on the regular and I encourage you to do the same. 2021 will be here before we know it so let’s make the rest of this year count and begin breaking up with our bullshit (relationships, jobs, mindsets – whatever doesn’t serve you) so that we don’t carry it into the new year. As always, I am only a DM or text message away if you need a break-up sherpa for the journey.
