How I Remembered My Purpose

In the beginning of last year, I had a big desire in my heart

?

I wanted to know what my true purpose was

?

I had read a lot of books around purpose and I had done a lot of different exercises

?

And while they helped a lot and gave me different frameworks, I still felt like something was missing

?

I was trying to “figure out” my purpose

?

And I was looking for the answers in my busy mind

?

Then in April I went on the most profound and life-changing Ayahuasca retreat

?

Everything changed for me

?

My fears, doubts or worries melted away as I was able to reconnect with my truest essence in the loving embrace of Mama Gaia (Mother Earth)

?

While this experience was completely life-changing, I remember coming back “to real life after” and transparently having a hard time integrating everything

?

I mean how do you came back from a completely mind-blowing, life-altering experience like an Ayahuasca retreat then are expected to get back to go back to “normal life”?

?

I was struggling to reconcile how to live a happy, fulfilled and purposeful life while filling my days with never-ending zoom meetings and work politics that were draining my life energy?

?

So, I remember sitting in meditation and setting a clear intention to remember WHY am I here… what is this all about?

?

And a clear insight or answer came through

?

“You are here to remember who you are”… long pause as started to tear up… “then guide others in doing the same”

?

I got so emotional with the clarity, simplicity and power of what came through

?

My whole body was buzzing as I got full body goosebumps

?

I have been saying that I have been going through a deep inner journey of unlearning and remembering but that is not the full story

?

To be transparent, I have been hesitant to share the truth

?

The truth is that my journey has been a spiritual journey

?

A journey of spiritual awakening and ascension

?

I have been hesitant to share for fear of judgement or for fear of being misunderstood

?

I have been hesitant to share here on LinkedIn because sometimes we think this platform is only for “professional things”

?

But the truth is that we can’t compartmentalize our professional, personal or spiritual selves

These are all parts of us as we are one unified multi-dimensional being

?

I also believe that there are many high-achieving professionals going through some sort of spiritual awakening as we look for deeper answers and meaning

?

I also believe that we are being asked to integrate the spiritual and the physical

?

And that it is time to bring spiritual awareness and higher consciousness to business, careers and leadership

?

I have been feeling a deep calling to truly, boldly and unapologetically own what my journey has been about

?

I have been feeling a deep calling to bring these deeper conversations to LinkedIn

?

This does put me for sure outside of my comfort zone, I am not going to lie

?

But I also feel an excitement inside for finally listening to the calling

?

If you are a high-achieving professional who is also going through a spiritual journey of sorts, I would love to hear from you

?

I think it is important for us to find each other right now

?

Not only so we know that we are in amazing company but also so we can support each other as we remember our true selves and step into our soul-led missions

?

If this resonates, please let me know

?

Here is to fully owning our truths, even when it feels a bit wobbly?
