A life and career that feed your soul

Something shifted in me during this last full moon. 

I was at dinner with a small group of women. We met to reflect, release, and go deep. What surfaced gave me chills, and it connected so many dots I've been trying to piece together.

For a while now, I've been easing into the work that actually feeds my soul: Mentoring. Coaching. Showing people what's possible for them. Helping them build independent, sustainable, thriving businesses that light them up. 

But here's what crystallized for me that night: every life and business I help transform is simultaneously transforming mine.

All year I've been grappling with the same questions: How do I build the confidence to fully commit to this calling? How do I stop second-guessing myself and focus entirely on the work that's clearly making the biggest difference for the people I serve?

I hear success story after success story, positive feedback, affirmation that the work I'm doing is really changing people's lives. But it can be hard to latch onto that, to really believe it. And to really believe that this can also serve me in a bigger, deeper way than I ever imagined.

Then came my tarot pull: King of Wands.

"you have worked hard to get where you are, and although you may have imposter syndrome, you deserve a seat at the table"

"you have the true ability to influence and inspire others"

"you are ready to build a team of people to help achieve your vision"

"you are ready to bring your goals to the next level, you can fully step into a position of leadership"

Goosebumps. Instant clarity.

The universe wasn't just answering my questions, it was confirming what I already knew deep down. I'm on the right path, and this path is big, bold, beautiful, and meaningful. I’m not walking alone either. I’m bringing people along with me — the way I've always wanted to lead. 

When I fully commit, my clients grow and flourish.

When I grow my business, my team benefits too.

The success I'm building isn't just mine. 

When I rise to a higher level, my entire community rises with me. 

This is how change really happens. 

Not alone, but together. 

And through full, unwavering commitment to what really lights us up. 🌕
