Purpose

There comes a moment when you feel you need a change. Suddenly the pull toward something more is impossible to ignore. Most of us are really good at avoiding change and cling to a life that is no longer serving us…until the day you realize something truly has to give.

We expect immediate breakthroughs, and when those don’t come, we stop showing up. The real success in anything happens not in the initial sprints but in the kind of work that requires patience to keep going when results are invisible.

As Toni Morrison said, “You wanna fly? You got to give up what weighs you down.”

That “messy middle” where the good stuff, like an oreo if they weren’t toxic, lives.

We are in a Wood Element, Snake Zodiac year, and we are in the season of Yin (water), which soon becomes the Yang energy of the Spring. If there were ever a year to embrace stepping into your true, authentic self, this would be it.
