Hi love,

I believe one of the most important things we can remember — and re-remember as many times as we need to — is that you are the source.

You are the magnet.

You are the one determining what you do or do not settle for.

You are the one determining how you see yourself.

You are the one determining what you allow into your life.

Yet so many of us unknowingly hand that power over to external circumstances.

A relationship.

A job.

An opportunity.

A number in our bank account.

A goal we haven't reached yet.

And when those things change, our sense of worth changes with them, but I want to share a metaphor to support you in considering a different perspective.

Imagine that you are the sun.

You are shining, you are powerful — you have a gravitational pull all your own. 

A meteor enters your orbit.

Are you any more the sun?

No.

A meteor leaves your orbit.

Are you any less the sun?

Also no.

You are still the sun.

This is how I want you to think about your self-worth.

The places where we lose our power are often the places where we start believing something outside of us is the source.

But it isn't — you are. And when you remember that, something shifts.

Instead of gripping and chasing. 

Instead of creating meaning about yourself based on what's happening externally.

You can come back to the truth:

I am the source.

And from that place, you get to decide what you create, what you allow, and how you live this one life you've been given.

Because at the end of the day, it's not external outcomes that create worth. It's self-worth that creates external outcomes.

💭 Question to reflect on this week:

Where have you been allowing an external circumstance to determine how you see yourself?

💌 P.S. If today's message resonated with you:

There are two things I'm sharing with this community throughout June:

The Inner Circle

A private email community for those who want to explore these conversations, concepts, and reflections on a deeper level and move beyond simply reading for inspiration to actively using them for transformation.

Inside I’ll be sharing:

• The reflections, lessons, and practices I'm exploring in real time

• Personal lessons and behind-the-scenes insights from my own journey.

• Conversations and topics I typically explore with my coaching clients

• Early access to workshops, events, and coaching opportunities

• Community-only invitations and opportunities

The Secrets to Creating Your Vision Masterclass

Where we'll explore why big visions can feel so overwhelming, how to move through the mental noise that often accompanies them, and how to begin embodying the version of yourself capable of creating what they desire.

(Heads up: I’ll be shifting this into a paid offering in July. As a subscriber to my newsletter, you'll have complimentary access throughout the month of June. 🤍)
