From burnout to heartbreak, yet further burnout to a final breakthrough.

Once upon a time, there was a girl who was considered to be quite unique.

She lived what she thought was an ordinary life, but others saw her as a courageous lady who lived by her own rules.

Despite this, the girl believed that her life was far from extraordinary, as she did not know any different. She did what she felt called to do, went through obstacles with her inner power, and achieved as much as she could with the strength she had.

And most of the time she felt it was not okay to settle. She kept on chasing more, further and further away. Travelling became the way of rediscovering herself over and over again. Redefining and questioning the reality around her became her daily bread.

Life took her to far-off places, exposing her to diverse cultures and exotic people. She embraced whatever came her way, allowing the circumstances to mould her, refine her identity, enrich her experiences, and shape her values.

She never felt enough, and this feeling was hidden behind a false belief she held about herself — that she wasn’t enough. She thought she was better off as the runner-up and preferred to hide behind a leader or authority rather than take the lead herself.

She was scared of being seen. And of finding her voice.

Owning her voice.

She loved the life she lived, so she wasn’t even aware that this feeling of misalignment leading to her energy leakage was creeping in the corners to make the final hit.

Amid her adventures and pursuits, she encountered an unexpected hurdle: burnout. It wasn’t just fleeting exhaustion but a recurring cycle that halted her progress, leaving her feeling depleted and disheartened.

Despite that most of the things looked great from the outside, some pieces of her soul were getting lost in the pursuit of someone else’s dream. A foreign empire. A safer option for her, where she could find refuge.

Also refuge from her true essence.

However, amidst the chaos of burnout, another storm brewed — heartbreak that shook her foundation the most.

It was a tempest that shattered her illusions about love and vulnerability. Healing from this heartbreak became a crucial turning point.

Initially, solitude felt daunting — a vast expanse of emptiness. But within that emptiness, she found solace. She discovered the beauty of solitude, the chance to explore her inner landscapes, and the opportunity to heal…

…and maybe foremost, to collect the lost, forgotten, and given away parts of her being that were used as currency for uneven relationships she’d built, feeding the illusion of unity.

In her solitude, she confronted the wounds of feeling unseen and hiding in the shadows. She realized the fear that held her back from stepping into her power, from embracing her uniqueness.

Through this introspection, she started to unravel the layers of self-doubt and fear that had restrained her potential for so long.

Piece by piece, she rebuilt herself.

The journey was arduous, filled with moments of doubt and uncertainty. Yet, she persisted.

Are you ready for a happy ending to this story, beloved reader?

Well, not so fast. Take a breath; we’re getting there!

Life needs to knock us down in a rather profound way for us to realise we’re not walking the path of our highest self-evolvement. We have to hit rock bottom to say:

I’ve had enough, Universe! I’ve learnt my lessons, give me my power back, you b*tch!

Here we go again, as you might rightly expect, she took another job, to build someone else’s empire, yet again.

But she now knew herself too well to comply with the reality she was supposed to create that was not aligned with her core. Her body let her know rather swiftly this time round, that she was on a downhill ride towards another burnout.

So she quit.

After gaining a new sense of clarity, she decided to dedicate herself to assisting others in unlocking their full potential. Her struggles became a wellspring of empathy, a bridge connecting her to those who felt stuck, lost, or miserable. She shared her story not as a tale of despair but as a testament to resilience and the transformative power of introspection and seeking THE truth.

To those feeling trapped or desolate, she extended a message of hope. She whispered that seeds of strength and wisdom are sown in the darkest moments.

She encouraged them to embrace their journey, explore the depths of their being, and trust that even in the face of adversity, there lies the potential for growth and eventual triumph. She reminded them that within each person lies an extraordinary story waiting to be unravelled, a purpose yearning to be discovered.

Life shows us our wounds every time there is an opportunity to heal them. We can either:

1. Abandon ourselves to run into self-defence mechanisms, so well known, and only helpful for a little while, or
2. Grab your Inner Child by the hand, dive deep into the murky waters of the unknown, and uncomfortable, to then arrive on the other side, where your true essence awaits to be expanded.

When you’re ready for your jump, let me be your guide.

Much love,

Kasia
