100% AUTHENTIC!!

I was interviewed yesterday by Megan Lee, a writer of a book that is launching in October this year (very exciting!). It is about female warriors, those who have survived traumatic events in their life and have come back full force, and are willing to share their story. I am so inspired by this. Yay Megan Lee!!

We need more of this…

We all have a story right?? Most of us have been through one trauma or another and have a story to tell. Well I want to encourage more people to talk about it. Share their trauma to triumphs and give anyone, someone, even if it is just that one person who may be in the thick of it, hope, that they too can rise up above.

I want to encourage people to shout out loud “ I am a survivor!! and I am a warrior!! “ . And I mean all of us!!! Because the more i talk to people, the more i know we all are!!

We are all powerful energy forces and can uplift each other with support, encouragement and respect by understanding the individual hurdles we have all taken on and generally overcome, and see we are all something to be proud of, warts and all.

My story is not a pretty one right!!?? But who gives a fuck? I would rather people know that I was raped and that I used to have track marks all over my body, and then come see me now, and go, “Holy shit!!?? That is some recovery!!, maybe i CAN do it!!” … right??

I want people to know how bad and ugly it was, because I know there are people in my position currently, but if they saw me now without knowing my past darkness, they would see me healthy and abundant, and it would all seem like bullshit, impossible, too far to reach. I want to give people “real” hope that they too can rise and become the best version of themselves, and life CAN be beautiful!

I say, let it all hang out, the good, the bad, the ugly; the wrong, the right; the up and the down. Yes it may be controversial, yes it may confront some people, but that’s okay. So long as you are coming from a place of love and goodness, and with no ill intent, there is nothing wrong with being 100% authentic, raw, real and amazing!!

We need more love between each other, more care, more understanding that we are all the same just travelling on our own journey and doing the best we can. We ALL fuck up. We ALL have bad days. We ALL have a cross to bear. No comparisons, no judgement, but rather a healthy dose of loving “hello’s” are needed between us, to our dear neighbors, friends, strangers and lovers.

A shared understanding that we are all pretty amazing , and we can all learn something from each other, is how we can change the world to bring collective peace and understanding.

So speak, don’t shut down, be a pillar of wonder and inspiration, as I believe we can all be for each other.

Be your authentic self and claim your worth!!

Love and light dear warriors…
