Happy October! The month of apple cider, pumpkin spice, colorful leaves, scary things, and Shadow Work!
This month's theme, Shadow Work, has been a profound journey of self-discovery. Delving into my shadows has illuminated how they've influenced every aspect of my life. While challenging, this process has been incredibly enlightening, reminding me of the importance of authenticity and aligning my actions with my core values.
I've realized that chasing external validation, such as money or societal expectations, can lead me astray from my true purpose. My original passion was herbalism, focused on supporting women's health and empowering young girls. While the financial aspect of herbalism presented challenges, I've always prioritized sharing knowledge and supporting others over monetary gain.
Through shadow work, I've uncovered a deep-seated fear of not being enough or successful, as it pertains to money. This fear, rooted in societal pressures and past experiences, has often clouded my judgment and led me to pursue paths that didn't align with my true values.
Moving forward, I'm recommitting myself to my original passion: Holistic Coaching and Support for Women, from First Moon Cycle Through Menopause. While I'll still offer life coaching for those who seek it, my primary focus will be on empowering women to take charge of their health and well-being throughout their reproductive journey through holistic coaching and advocacy services.
This journey of shadow work has taught me a valuable lesson: to stay true to myself and prioritize what truly matters. By aligning my actions with my core values, I am creating a more fulfilling and authentic life.
This is the importance of Shadow Work! It is part of everyone’s wellness journey, and like menopause, and menstruation, we need to shine a light on it. Let’s break the stigma around all these topics and celebrate the woman! Join me in challenging the shame and stigma associated with them all!
Have you been working with the prompts? If so, how is it going? Message me. If not, I’m including the link because it is not too late! It doesn’t have to be this month. But I do advise checking them out.
I am here for you. If you want to work more on shadow work, or want to talk about your wellness journey around topics like menopause, moon cycles, or women’s health in general, make sure to make that free initial consultation appointment. Do not let my pricing stand in your way. I am happy to discuss payment options and sliding scale fees for all my offerings.
Go enjoy the Fall! Pick pumpkins and apples, have that apple cider or pumpkin latte. Take some time for self-love. Next month we will be discussing Gratitude. I am looking forward to hanging out with you again!
