Hi love,

I want you to sit with something today.

Whatever it is you're calling in right now, that desire, that vision, that thing you can't stop thinking about, I want you to really ask yourself: did I choose this? Or did it choose me?

If you bring real awareness to that question, I think you'll notice something.

It doesn't feel like you chose it.
It feels like it chose you.

And it’s likely pulling you past what's safe, past what you could settle for and past the version of "fine" you know you could have talked yourself into being happy with.

If you're anything like the people I work with, or like me in my own journey, you've probably tried to make the smaller, safer version work.

And it just hasn't.
Because something in you keeps getting called toward this bigger vision instead.

Now, if you're actively in the process of creating it, I know it can feel a little wackadoo sometimes.

That's because you're moving past fears and patterns that have been wired into your subconscious over a lifetime, patterns you have to lift yourself out of in order to actually build the thing you're being called toward.

In those moments, it can feel like you're the only one who wants this. Like it's entirely on you to fight for it, chase it or battle for it.

But that feeling is a protective pattern. One that, left unchecked, can quietly block you from all the support and abundance that's actually already available to you.

Because here's the shift:

When you recognize that you didn't choose the vision — that the vision chose you, and something deeper within you is calling you toward it — you can start to see the journey differently.

Instead of asking, Why isn't this happening yet? you can notice where your own fears, patterns, or behaviors might actually be standing in the way.

And while releasing what's familiar can feel incredibly uncomfortable, sometimes that's the exact work the vision is asking of you.

And this is so much of the work I do with my clients: helping them see where an old identity is still creating rules for a life they've already outgrown.

Stepping into your vision isn't always about “doing more.” Oftentimes, it requires releasing the fear, control, overthinking, or need to prove that once kept you safe — but can't take you where you're going.

And while letting go can feel uncomfortable, it’s incredibly freeing to realize you no longer need to carry the very things that were weighing you down.

Because more often than not, the abundance you're craving is simply waiting on the other side of what you're finally willing to release.

💭 Question to reflect on this week:

What might you need to release in order to fully say yes to what's calling you?
