Squeeze All The Juice: Mess Into Miracles
Jan 06, 2025
One of the greatest thing in life is that we are in a continuous state of starting over. We start over each day. We can start over in each moment. Something someone once told me is that we are either coming out of a valley and heading up to a peak, or we are entering a valley, which - I do believe. Life is full of highs and lows and this follows in accordance to the Law of Rhythm. How we weather the seasons of our life is everything. If there's anything I hope to share with you, it's how to be RESILIENT with grace. Resilience can take a set back and turn it into a come back. Not only does resilience make you better, grace softens and also strengthens your soul. Think about walking through life stressed, anxious and reactive vs walking through life responsive with grace. Two completely different experiences, two completely different vibrations, causing and creating two completely different outcomes - including with your health (and your insides definitely show up on the outside). This concept and reality is a direct reflection in that we are our results.
Let me ask you this question: where are you not yet seeing the miracle (or multiple miracles) in your life? Are you seeing the "mess" or are you seeing the blessing and opportunity? How we perceive dictates our behavior (how we act) and how we act creates our results. I would love you to start seeing the good in everything. Once you start seeing the good, you'll see (and experience) much more of it - and your entire life experience will snowball for the better in goodness.
Yesterday morning this message came to me: the messenger is in the mess, and the miracle is in the messenger. Make of that what you will.
There are a number of "messes" I could share. I'll share a recent "mess" with you that actually has turned into a miracle. I've recently moved to Miami, Florida (from St Barth where I've been living the past year), and could not be happier - as in, kissing the ground I walk on, on a minute by minute basis. Who knew I would LOVE being here so much? I've never spent time in Florida before. I'm a SoCal girl, having visited there countless times over the past 14 years and having lived there for 2 years. California and Florida are two different worlds, and God called me to Florida (this has never been part of the plan in my conscious mind). The choice to relocate here was intuitive and I am grateful to have taken action without hesitation. Going into the new year as grounded and settled as can be, this is a great feeling.
Last year my overarching goal was to create more stability in my life, and before the end of the 2024 calendar year, I created true stability in a few categories of my life. I wasn't focused on these goals on a day to day level, but - these "goals" were seeds planted in my heart because they were deep desires - and so my subconscious intuitively and instinctively went to work and kept guiding me. It's up to us to decide what we really want, and then listen and respond. This is all made possible by God, might I add. Whatever higher power is real for you, use this as a reference to that. So, what do YOU really want? What's the first thing that comes to you without thinking long or hard. This is easy. Life becomes easier when you are honest with yourself, give your ego the backseat and start living in trust and faith with a purified heart. My heart, has definitely gone through a purification process across the past 8 years, and it continues to. I believe this process never stops, as we are always learning, experiencing, perceiving, and shaking the dust off of our souls to keep getting back out there (living). Thank you for joining me on that tangent! We are a tangent and ramble positive culture around here. I'll share more on that in another blog post. It's actually a breakthrough exercise and a fun one at that.
Long story short, when I went back to St Barth in September, I was looking for a house/villa/apartment and I did not end up finding one. Housing inventory on the island is very limited and also very expensive, think: New York City or London, UK, prices. And in this case, you really don't get what you pay for (high expense, low quality for value and standard). As much as I loved being on the island full time, the decision to not be full time has really cracked my heart open in an unexpected way. There are more details and deciding factors to my choice, but the point: resilience, openness and not being attached to what things look like - will really turn a perceived mess into a miracle.
There is SO much about my journey across the past year that I am in (healthy) awe of. Spending the summer in St Tropez was not on my list of plans when the 2024 calendar year started, and it turned out that's where I needed to be for a period of time, because of my business in St Barth. My time spent there taught me things I would never have learned had I not been there. I can share more on this if you are interested, it's a big topic unto itself around life, life, humans, commitment to goals and what's really important (our values).
In keeping this short and sweet (for today) I would love you to decide to squeeze all the juice out of whatever circumstance you're in right now. There's ALWAYS something perceived as a mess in the moment, that's actually a miracle. There have been many moments in time where I have had to walk through the fire and be patient that have taught me to squeeze all the juice from the present moment - which, is FULL of gifts. All this takes is a change in thought and vision. Are you open to seeing things differently (and creating a different experience)?
See you in the studio! Let's move together. Please ask ANY questions you may have. I'm an open book and my wish is to support you in all ways I'm able! Submit your questions here or write me [email protected]. I am beyond grateful that you are here.
Something else I would love to leave you with: taking inventory of last year while deciding what this year gets to look like. What worked last year? What are you leaving behind? What do you get to forgive yourself for? Did your time spend align with what you wanted or who you think you are? More questions like this exist in the Start Here: Welcome and Miracles section in the studio so head there if you feel called.
