Manifestation is a word that is becoming more and more popular as we grow as a collective community. But what do you think of when you hear it? Do you know how it feels in your own life?

Women like to do it all. We are nurturing by nature and we extend ourselves in so many directions but here's the thing, we don't have to do it all at one time. So dare I ask, what season of life are you in?

Money, money, money! Always want to have more and we never seem to have enough.

Every year I get really excited for the new year to come. You know, that feeling where it feels like a blank slate is right in front of you. But then every year I write down a bunch of things I am going to ‘do’ and ‘accomplish the upcoming year and I would drop the ball so to say, all year long. After repeating this pattern year after year, I got tired. I wondered why things weren’t getting done and I got rather frustrated about it. Last year I had had enough and decided to start my year a little bit differently.

2021 is around the corner and I bet after the year we had, you’re already all over creating a new year’s resolution list. Here’s how my list goes, I get excited in December for the new year to come. I sit down and look at my past year and ask mySelf what I want to bring into the new year. The list usually consists of eating healthier, exercising more, and making more money. I write them down on a piece of paper, go to a new year’s party, and January 1st hits and I’m hungover.

Anyone else run around like a chicken with their head cut off around the holiday season? These days, Christmas decorations come out before November, we’re setting up our trees two months before the actual day and we feel the pressure to shop until we drop to show people we love them. Two years ago, enough was enough.

When I was a little girl I was taught to always ask first and then do second. When my parents said yes, that meant I could go ride my bike. When my parents said no, that meant I didn’t get dessert. The yes’ always felt the best but I seemed to have met with more no’s. This pattern continued into elementary school. When the teacher said yes, I could go to the bathroom. When they said no it wasn’t snack time yet, I couldn’t eat. The idea of asking before doing is to keep us safe as children but what happens is we all continue this habitual pattern that was given to us into adulthood without even consciously knowing we are still doing it, yep you heard me. We are all grown up’s asking for permission to just be ourSelves.

I remember the days that I would lie awake at night wishing I was where I am today. I remember asking whoever is up there in the big bright sky to help me feel better. I wanted to be excited to wake up in the morning. I yearned for joy and laughter daily. I dreamed of confidence to start my own business. One moment sticks out the most, I was kneeling on my floor, I hadn’t showered in a couple of days, I had been eating like crap and I felt even worse. I began to cry. I sat there tears flooding down my face asking if this is it. I spoke out loud claiming I was ready. What I was ready for, who knows but I was definitely ready for something.
