Though I felt myself becoming nervous Saturday as I packed, I knew this was a threshold I needed to cross.
Dad passed away a month ago, and it was time to visit his empty house to handle some matters.
Feeling childlike and vulnerable, I tucked a stuffed animal into my suitcase before heading out.
Thresholds. Bridges. Archways.
Places to pass through on the way to more creativity, freedom, income…
Ring a bell?
What passages have you celebrated on your way to today?
Degrees?
Certifications?
Marriage?
What thresholds await you, though you’re not feeling ready to cross?
Surgery?
Telling your truth to a partner?
Stepping into the creative flow ready to manifest through you?
Dear reader, are you feeling stuck?
Do you wonder about a passage that could open your life to new opportunity if you’d step through?
I wish you momentum and courage to take the first step.
Big changes in our lives start with small actions.
May you not wait as long as I.
I felt a knocking on my soul years before I could cross the threshold into birthing the radiant creations on this site.
It was crazy and wonderful seeing that once I was able to birth them, new growth continues to arise in me.
It’s as if I unblocked something extreme within myself.
One step of courage through a door we’ve been avoiding opens the way to taking more and more steps into new lives waiting for us.
After birthing the idea that had arrived years earlier, I healed more into myself.
I found my voice.
I discovered renewed courage to try new things.
I unearthed my soul’s work to inspire peace and joy.
Along the way, I became certified as a spiritual director, leading me to deep joy serving clients as a spiritual/joyful mentor.
I use my gifts writing on this site and in a weekly online newsletter subscribers love.
