Becoming who you need most
Reflecting on my journey of life and business, I’ve realised: we become who we need most in the world. Over the last 7 years on my entrepreneurial journey and in my coaching, I’ve seen this pattern time and again. The process of evolving into the person I most need. As I contemplate this, the more I realise it’s potency.
The sensation of something that’s missing no longer remains an obstacle, but rather an invitation to embrace the essence of who I am becoming. It allows me to transform the narrative and instead of seeking external short term fixes, I can turn within. I can embrace my ability to be the Creator of my life and focus on the deliberate construction of lasting solutions.
In this moment, as I pen these words to you , this truth holds even more weight. It’s been a challenging time. Deep emotional work has been underway, numerous thoughts and feelings surfacing to be healed and transmuted. Through this, I find myself deeply questioning my path, choices and how I move forward. My motivation wavering, self-doubt at a high. Big shifts are reshaping areas of my life and the turbulance beckons me to refocus, reignite my passion and dig even deeper to reconnect with the core of myself.
So I wrote myself a list. A list of who I need most right now:
As I read this list, I’m looking into a mirror. The person I need the most right now is me.
Isn't it intriguing how the very qualities I need right now are ones I've already got simmering within? It's almost as if I'm standing on the edge of my own transformation, just waiting for a gentle nudge and some self-kindness to dive right in. And here's a thought: perhaps this whirlwind of self-doubt, these emotional rollercoasters, and life's unexpected plot twists are simply the Universe's way of levelling me up.
It’s funny because in my work, I am this to so many others. Yet when the spotlight shifts back to me, it can be deeply uncomfortable and unsettling. My unhealed parts glaring obvious. Sometimes your own medicine is the hardest to swallow. And that’s where the Universe steps in, creating the circumstance in which I have to go there. Feel. Accept. Heal.
This process of becoming isn’t always easy. It’s an ongoing exploration. Sometimes it’s a walk in the park, sometimes a big ugly cry on the bathroom floor. Each moment becoming a checkpoint on the life long jounrey of self-betterment. As I welcome them in, saying, "Yes, I'm ready for more. More growth, expansion, and being."
Isn't this, the essence of becoming who we most need in the world?
It's a process of self-discovery, unbecoming, and re-becoming. It's an invitation to integrate the shadow aspects of ourselves. Particularly the light shadow – the power, intuition, talent, and skills we've suppressed, disowned, denied, or repressed due to societal conditioning, past experiences, or internal conflicts. The parts we've labeled unacceptable or undesirable, preventing us from embracing the spectrum of our full selves.
Becoming who we need most is a journey of acknowledging and accepting these aspects, creating a space for growth. As we integrate our shadow, we pave the way to express our potential and release emotional and energetic blocks. This transformation allows us to step confidently into ourselves, elevating our creative power and enabling us to operate at a new level.
And so, I wish you well as you become the person you need the most. As you step more confidently into yourself, integrating your light and elevating into that next level of growth and evolution. Embrace the process with an open heart, for within it lies the power to become the person you need most in the world. The person who is here to do great things and help many people.
