Mother/Daughter Retreat to Prince Edward island

Today's episode is for anyone who has had something hard or horrid happen or is facing a change or a hard truth to handle and you really just want to cry and say "life is not fair and I am just going to be mad (or sad or cry or...) right now."  This episode is for anyone who is trying to avoid or escape from reality or trying to numb the pain. 
You are not alone.
Isha Warriors is celebrating our first year anniversary and it has brought up a lot of emotions as I have reflected on not only my business but the lives of my family and friends and the ups and downs of this past year.   

Trying to establish myself in an online niche for teens feels like this sometimes...

And sometimes like I'm the Who from "Horton Hears a Who"

As I was sharing my frustrations with one of my dearest friends, she lovingly told me something that I will never forget...
"Staying in that space (teaching where you have been teaching) of comfort is feeding your ego, you need to focus on fueling your purpose..."

She shared insights from Jamie Kern Lima's story with me ("Believe IT") and today I am going to share those insights and more about WHAT YOUR PURPOSE IS AND 5 WAYS TO FUEL YOUR PURPOSE!!!

Your purpose is NOT:

  • Your purpose is NOT the same as a role or a title you may have. 

  • Your purpose is NOT tied to an achievement you have made or a promise you have fulfilled.

  • Your purpose can not be summed up in a single moment. 

Your purpose IS:

  • Your purpose is the daily pouring out into other people’s lives that only you can do in a way that is unique to you. Your purpose is your dharma…it is not so much about what field you choose to study or what job you choose to work but HOW you show up in your sphere of influence.  

How to fuel your purpose:

  1. Turn down the volume of others and be still so you can hear your intuition. Intro to meditation. 

  2. Put your intuition on a pedestal. 

  3. Set backs are our set ups.

  4. Address your doubts.

  5. Check in with your why and don't be scared to pivot. 

What we think matters.
What we eat matters. 
Sleep matters. 
What we watch matters.
What we say matters.
What we do matters.
