The time is over for hiding. Now is the kairos. The perfect moment to stand up and show the world who you really are.
No, not the small, fake, timid shadow of yourself that hides behind a mask. The real, true, revolutionary human that you are.
You know that the final chapter has come to an end, and the moment has arrived to close the book of your old life and become who you REALLY know yourself to be at the core.
It’s time to reveal your soul to the world in all its infinite glory.
It’s time to fully show up, firstly for yourself, and secondly for what’s true and just.
You’ve known things weren’t quite right for a long time, both in the world and within yourself.
No matter what kind of outer success you’ve achieved (and you’ve had plenty of it), you never reached the place you thought you would. Something was missing and no matter how hard you tried, you just couldn’t put your finger on it.
I’m here to point out the obvious. The thing that’s been missing all this time is YOU. Being fully ALL of you. Some time ago in the dim and distant past, you squashed yourself to fit in, keep the peace, and to make everyone else happy. As you diligently followed the rules of your family, work and society, you slowly but surely started to shrink and disappear.
YOU KILLED OFF YOUR SOUL. Yes you did, you know it’s true.
You unwittingly sold your soul to the devil because that’s what everybody else did too.
And now as you read this you’re finally ready to admit what you did. You put yourself in a box, before the world did it for you, and you built your own prison.
You might be wondering how I know this…
Because I did it too – for YEARS. I played the game and did what I was told. I followed the track for success and boy oh boy did I ‘make it’. Yes indeed. I had the high profile job with the kudos and financial rewards to boot.
I spent years climbing the ladder, to eventually realise it was against the wrong wall.
It was killing my soul.
Then my world fell apart in one fell swoop. After years of being numbed out on the conveyor belt called life, I cracked open. IT WAS PAINFUL. The world came rushing in and overwhelmed me.
And in that moment I WOKE UP.
I woke up to the lie I’d been living.
I woke up to my pain and trauma.
I woke up to the realisation I was living someone else life.
I woke up to my self loathing and insecurities.
I woke up to how guarded my heart was.
I woke up to the illusion of ALL OF IT.
I’d been sleepwalking on autopilot through someone else’s expectations of what my life should look like. I’d measured my success by somebody else’s ruler.
I felt fake, phoney and out of control and in that moment I knew that a part of me was dying. The grief and devastation were intolerable. I cried and cried for months. It was intensely painful and lasted for what felt like an eternity. And yet…
I can tell you this.
IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO ME.
Because it woke me up to what I’d done. The whole experience helped me understand what was missing all along.
ME.
I was M.I.A. in my own life. Auto-pilot has a way of doing that. When you’re so immersed in the cut and thrust of everyday living, you just can’t see it. Often it takes a massive shock to break the shackles of a conditioned mind to start to comprehend something new or different.
I’d known for years that my true work lay in the healing and transformation space. I just didn’t have the balls or the clarity to make the leap, until life pushed me out of the plane with no parachute. I had to figure it out for myself on the way down.
Was it challenging? Hell yes.
Did I face massive resistance? Of course.
Did I cry, scream and punch the air at the unfairness of it all? You betcha.
Did I question and doubt myself and the process? Umm… what do you think?!
But guess what….
I didn’t smash into the ground at 150 mph. I WAS CAUGHT BY GRACE. Rescued by a force greater than myself.
I WAS SAVED BY MY OWN SOUL.
Because it was there all along but had been squished and stuffed in a cupboard for as long as I could remember. When it saw that chink of light it made a sprint for the door and escaped. It reached the sunlight and took its first breath.
After a long imprisonment, IT CAME BACK TO LIFE.
And bit by bit so did I.
That was ten years ago and I haven’t looked back since. It’s been a long road with many twists, turns and dead ends. Yet I wouldn’t change any part of it for ANYTHING. It has cost me YEARS OF MY LIFE and HUNDREDS OF THOUSAND OF POUNDS to get my soul back and let me tell you it’s the best investment I EVER made.
I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat because my hard-won freedom is PRICELESS. Honestly – what’s the point of living if you don’t feel free?
After walking this path for years it has become what I live and breathe. My life has unexpectedly become my purpose and that makes my soul very happy indeed. This wild crazy journey led me home to myself and to find my place in the world.
I’m now blessed to share these gifts with others so they can find their FREEDOM, come home to themselves and become what they already KNOW is inside of them.
To reclaim their power and step into sovereignty.
To think and feel for themselves, beyond the conditioning and trauma of the past.
To stand up and shine their light in a world of darkness.
To step out of the shadows and become the revolutionary human, leader, healer, and inspiration they have always known themselves to be.
To be an example of what is possible for humanity.
TO BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD. Yes, YOU.
I know it’s scary. Perhaps you don’t feel ready. You want to run and hide and maybe you will.
Scarier still is the thought of reliving the same day over and over again for 60+ years and calling it a life.
You know what? Your soul wants to come out of the box, and until it does, there will always be the unrelenting discomfort that a part of you is missing. It’s only a matter of time before something gives. Your life and your people are waiting.
The question is: Are you going to take the leap yourself or wait to be pushed?
Because at the end of the day it’s your choice.
Nobody else is coming to the rescue.
You’ve got to save yourself.
You know it’s time to become the revolutionary human that you are. And frankly… if not now, then when?
Remember –
Breathe the change you wish to see in the world.
