Sometimes change feels scary to go through…

“Distinguishing between the true ME and the identities or aspects
of my personality that are trying to protect me
gives me some solace.

Jennifer Hough


What part of us is scared of change? It’s the part that has to die for the expanded version to become the new YOU, able to sustain the dream you’re dreaming.

The true infinite soul of us does not die, so YOU are not afraid to die. It’s the part of you that feels comfy, familiar and predictable that’s afraid. Personally, distinguishing between the true ME and the identities or aspects of my personality trying to protect me gives me some solace, lessening my need for courage.

On the other hand, what is this internal need to follow my heart?
To make dreams/imaginings/potential creations come to reality?
Do you feel that? Am I alone here? I don’t think so.

In times of great change, when there is so much polarity and fascinating differences of opinion, people are catalyzed to create anew, to build bridges, to break glass ceilings and come up with ideas to bring flow and harmony. So, we’re constantly in a state of becoming. You might think: “Well, why can’t we just be satisfied with what is”?

Sure, it’s a sane way to be and, indeed, brings about the most fluid path for visionaries. The equation goes like this: “Be thrilled with what exists, yet truly in anticipation of what inevitably is to come.” It’s the perfect state for fluid, expanding lives but, eventually, the need to create sneaks up on us.

I choose to be curious about the unknown. Sometimes it’s hard to remain curious on subjects I’ve invested a great deal in, like my career or my marriage, without some drama when fear of change really messes with these major parts of my life. So, it’s back to being ‘curious on the adventure’. Being calmly curious and not kicking and screaming when life changes are presenting, is the way to be.

It’s especially challenging as we move through the evolutions in who we are, not knowing where they’re leading or who we’re becoming!

Falling in love with the adventure of life will transcend the need for courage. The entire Universe is evolving and spiraling forever towards more flow and creativity and we are made of those atoms. It’s inevitable. Resistance to change is truly futile!

As for me, I’m continuing to create systems and tools to embody my evolutions. I’m going to carry on assisting others in finding their ability to flow because the world needs pioneers of change. People who change with the changes, are the pioneers of a new tomorrow. If you’re still with me, reading, I’m thinking that’s you!

I love you, my fellow Unicorns.

With love,
Jennifer

Worthiness. I spent a good portion of my childhood trying to be enough.

How about you?

Every time you seek to prove your worth, you are coming from a place that presumes that you’re somehow lacking.

You were literally an etheric metaphysical being, who poured into a body in perfect timing. You are a meat suit flying through space at 55,000 miles per hour while miraculously housing a soul and spirit. You witness sunsets, mountain tops, births, deaths. You breathe the air that trillions of trees breathe out just for you!

Fears and freedom

Fears and freedom

The other morning, as I was pulling out an old plant that took up a lot of room and was on its way out, I heard the bell from the Baptist church down the road, at the same time as I caught a glimpse of the peonies I was planting to replace the old bush.

I love peonies. They remind me of Canada and my front yard. They take me to an emotional home place. That’s why I’m planting them. I keep imagining seeing the peonies while I’m sitting on my front porch.

At the gathering place down the road, the minister is impassioned and talks very loudly. Sometimes, he’s incredibly inspiring and I just stand outside on the road and listen, while at others when he talks about the challenging aspects of humanity, there’s fear within the church. I speak at many churches, so this isn’t about making church wrong, but rather the idea that most of humanity spends time finger-pointing.

My heart is so full of blessings…

After a rich and vibrant time in the Embodiment Workshop in Asheville, my heart is so full of blessings.

I’m so grateful for the participants, the TWA Team, and so incredibly blessed to have opulence everywhere around me in my garden. Not only for the lettuce, but the seeds for new lettuce. It’s truly overflowing …

I’m grateful for all the shifts and clarity that happened for both myself, and collectively, and wanted to share something with you…
