There IS Another Way! ...to what?
A proper intro, Sweet Souls ✨
Oh, very, very broadly…there’s another way to be a Soul in a human body! Because there’s no other you…👀 You’re the only you!
Cliche?! That’s okay. Because it’s true! And it has massive implications.
I’m not talking about the oft-criticized “my truth” thing here. I do believe in individual truths! To a degree. Which will become clearer as we go along here. But I’m not talking about someone just being able to say, “Well, to me…Love actually does include XYZ (insert anything that pretty much no human would agree to as being loving).”
I believe in foundational Truths. Truths like…
God is Love (in Essence - of course God is more than just Love, but God’s Essence is Love!).
God is the Creator of All - all universes, realities, etc. Everything we know of and do not know of.
We come from God and we are a part of God.
We are Souls in human bodies.
We exist with the Love of God both inside of us already (in our own unique Essences) and constantly flowing to us from God (that we get to allow in and through us, into the world).
God’s design, God’s will, is perfect. God has created all possibilities and knows all possibilities. But we still have free will to choose. We can choose in alignment with God or out of alignment with God. God, because God is Pure Love, cannot force and control. Love cannot control. God, in God’s nature as Love, requires us to choose. We must choose to align with and partner with God.
And those last two points there on Love and partnering with God and allowing the Love of God to flow into and through us…
That’s where I want to focus.
You’re a Prism
Your uniqueness as a Soul does not negate your Oneness (connection to) all.
You are simply just a unique facet of the One! A unique emanation.
When the Light of God shines through YOU, something unique is expressed and witnessed.
That is your Design.
We all have the choice to live in alignment with this Design or not…(And boy oh boy does it start to feel really awful when you’re living out of alignment with this Design! Firsthand experience…🙋🏼♀️)
And it’s quite the adventure to alignment! Because we come into this human life forgetting - forgetting Who We Are, from where we come, ultimate Truths, all that jazz. That’s a part of the adventure, at least for right now (in terms of being a human - who knows where we’re headed!).
We forget, but we can always remember.
Remembering is what we call awakening.
We return to Who We Are. We return to God.
We reset our foundation, we reorient.
From the Truths to which we return is where we begin to live.
No one is made to be a copy of another.
We share the foundation of being connected to God, coming from God, being spiritual beings in human bodies, and existing in God (with God all around us - in God we live, move, and have our being [Acts 17:28]). We share the foundation of being able to allow the Love of God to flow into and through us out into the world. We share the ability to shift reality.
But we also share that we are each unique.
My gifts are not yours, your gifts are not mine.
My joys are not yours, your joys are not mine.
My dreams are not yours, your dreams are not mine.
My interests are not yours, your interests are not mine.
My preferences are not yours, your preferences are not mine.
We can both love tacos, the beach, and early morning runs - but even though we share these loves, there are micro/imperceptible differences between these loves of ours that we just can’t see! We just can’t know.
We get to enjoy sharing similarities with others while enjoying our uniqueness at the same time.
You are meant to be a unique emanation of the Light of God, the Love of God.
Please don’t try to be like anyone else.
Gifts
I mentioned gifts. This is one of the topics I’m most passionate about - purpose, gifts, career, etc. All connected!
Just because I have a gift of teaching and so does my brother doesn’t mean we’re the same.
Just because I have a gift of writing and so does my friend doesn’t mean we’re the same.
It’s never just about the gift…it’s about how every other bit of our uniqueness weaves into that gift! Impacts that gift.
In what areas of life we use that gift.
How we actually, practically use that gift.
I could love teaching in schools while my brother loves teaching online courses.
I could love writing blogs while my friend loves writing books.
You get the picture!
But if we think there’s just one way to be or do XYZ (ANYTHING!)…we hold ourselves back.
We block the Light and Love of God that wants to come through us - specifically us.
There is only one me. There is only one you.
Remember - God needs our participation. God can’t force.
You do not have to follow another human for absolutely anything you do in your life. Nada.
You get to create your own work schedule, you get to decide how to show up online or on social media, you get to decide what is and is not a part of your “marketing” (I don’t love that word, but we’re gonna use it for now!), you get to decide…everything!
I am all for learning from other humans. Yes, please! Let’s be inspired. Let’s get new ideas. But copy? How about no. How about we don’t blindly follow just because we think we should or we’ve been told we gotta.
I love this verse from Jason Mraz’s song “Be Where Your Feet Are”
Every time I try to follow someone's way
My end result is not the same
But then I do that thing – that thing I do that's just for me
And amazing things start happening
You gotta do it your way! You just gotta.
It’s how you’re made.
So, sharing your gifts and all that jazz (purpose, career, etc.) is going to a big theme here, Sweet Darlings.
Also…
Health, Lifestyle, and Beyond
Whoa health is a big topic nowadays, huh?
Filled with fear most of the time…
Fear or overwhelm.
Doesn’t it seem like there’s always something new that’s going to give you a disease or that’s going to kill you?!
Doesn’t it always seem like you’re doing a million and one things wrong?! (And you thought you were doing a bunch of things right…)
We’re cutting that out here.
I want this to be a space where we can explore optimal human health and all sorts of alternative healing paths together.
Health has been a passion topic of mine for a heck of a long time! (I actually have a personal training certification and a nutrition coaching certification AND a health and wellness coaching certification! No bragging 😂 just demonstrating my interest!) I really became passionate through eating disorder recovery. (Something I’m sure I’ll touch on here and there!)
I think the passion picked up during recovery because I had experienced what happens to the rest of life when you have a lack of health…
So I thought, “No way! I don’t want anyone else to experience a less-than-full life because of a lack of health that’s within their hands.”
We’ll talk about what’s in and outside of our control (is anything fully outside of our control? ← I wonder this a lot!), how we can pursue health and healing but drop perfectionism, how our actions outside of direct healing actions can be healing in and of themselves too (i.e., doing anything for pure joy), and more.
While we aren’t just humans…we do have these physical bodies! That impact our experience as Souls within them. We get to care for them. Love them.
Yes, health and healing are going to be big topics here!
And lastly…
The Nature of Reality
What is this reality?! We’re going here, too.
Quantum field. Quantum physics.
Jesus and Christianity.
God.
Other religions.
Spirituality outside of religion.
Energetics.
Evil? Darkness?!
Yep, we’re going to all of these places and more.
Ultimately…
I believe that at the foundation of living the best human life possible where you’re sharing your gifts, you’re enjoying life, you’re healthy, you’re spiritually connected…
It all comes down to finding God.
It all comes down to connecting to your True Essence, your Soul Nature.
It all comes down to a reorientation of your foundation.
And that’s what I always want to be helping you with here!
I want everything to point you back to God and Who You Are.
This IS incredibly fun! This exploration. AND at the same time…it changes how we live.
Love is the goal.
Are you Loving you? Loving others? Loving the earth? Loving all other beings?
Are you embodying Love?
See, that’s all that matters…
I promise you that having fun with life is a part of embodying Love, too 😉
We’re not shying away from talking about challenge, either.
Remember I said we’d talk on evil and darkness?
It is indeed a reality that there are plenty of energies and beings and people that are existing counter to God’s design of Perfect Love. We need not shy away from this!
Being objective allows us to take the right action.
We get to remind ourselves that Love is the most powerful energy there is.
We need not be afraid. Perfect Love casts out all fear. (1 John 4:18)
The Light shines in the darkness and the darkness cannot overcome it. (John 1:5)
We can be objective without doing the type of judging that gets us more of the same.
Here, we get to reorient, too. Reorient back to Love.
This will make more sense as we go along, I promise! But this isn’t a space of spiritual bypassing.
Posting Schedule
How often will there be a new article?! That’s the million dollar question, eh?
I DO want to be consistent! And I aim, right now, for AT LEAST two new articles per month. Why don’t I want to make any promises? Just because I still have another full time job and I’m just getting into the flow here 😊 I want to post as often as possible but I gotta go with the flow at the same time.
The same goes for my podcast, There IS Another Way. My aim is two episodes per month, but we’ll see how that goes as well 🫶🏻
Oh and social media is a bit more sporadic! I mean, I aim for daily! But I’ll never force, just to keep on some sort of schedule…even if the algorithm “likes” that? The energy has to be right - so no forcing around here! Not when it comes to posting (that goes for the articles here and podcast episodes, too). That’s just the nature of it though, huh? (If you were wondering about that schedule too.)
This is just getting started, Sweet People! I’ll be here as much as I possible can 🫶🏻
What an Adventure This Will Be! 🗺️
