What if it has all been a lie?

What if everything that you have learned about how to have a good life is a lie?
It is no longer about trying to Make. It. Work.
Today's initiation is about paying attention to your LONGINGS and honoring them as your unique STRATEGY for a well-lived life.
That means, the unique codes for your healing, happiness and your BECOMING live inside of you.
No one else has them.
If you have a life, relationships, a business the BEST STRATEGY is to BE. MORE. YOU.
I am doing this in my business right now...have you noticed?
I have thrown out pretty much every "strategy" that I have been taught -- and I have spent loads of money to learn those strategies too! Oh Life! How I love you!
Why would I do such a thing?
Because the strategies maybe "worked" but they stressed me out, created incongruence with my heart and I realized about 6 months ago that success is not about what is on a spreadsheet. Yeah yeah yeah...everyone one KNOWS that but then you hire a high ticket business coach that is all about "IMPACT" rather than numbers but really, the ENERGY underneath all of it is NUMBERS.
Sorry not sorry. It's true.
Just like everything in life, I have no regrets about this...I am here to learn in life. To try new things, experience and then pivot back more and more into myself.
And here is what I have figured out in the last 6 months:
The BEST STRATEGIES for my life and my business are ones that feel creative, alive and create freedom (<-- these are three of my biggest values). I also need to be dancing with loads of PLEASURE and SPACE in my life in order to WANT to be of service in ways that *light me up*...and I am my best when I am lit up!
So, I have thrown out every strategy that makes me want to roll my eyes, throw my computer or quit my job.
Instead, I fill my life with things that I LOVE and then I feel naturally excited to engage in my business...like write this email after a long hike with my husband, some sunbathing, a swim and a leisurely lunch on the patio with my family.
I felt INSPIRED to write (inspired means FILLED WITH LIFE AND SPIRIT) and so I am sitting in the shade on a bright, warm blue day doing just that.
It is easy.
It has taken me a while to REMEMBER who I am -- I have been so mired in the programming of who I should be that untangling from that has taken the last 4 years or so.
Now I realize that when I am just me...it is the easiest thing in the world. And then EVERYTHING is easy because the only way that I can fully be me is if I ACCEPT MYSELF. And when I accept myself, I accept my husband, my son, my mother, my life...EVERYTHING.
And then, life just flows.
When you are just being the magnificence that is you, YOU will never get tired of being YOU. You don't need to retire from being you either.
You don't need a vacation from yourself either...unless you are doing shit that you don't like or being a shit in your life. ????
I will be inviting YOU into a whole year with me to explore who YOU are and to craft your life in deep alignment with yourself. With grace, elegance, ease and sooooo much space (I loooove the freedom of lots of room to explore...maybe you do too!).
Stay tuned for more details...I am birthing them as I write! So alive and exciting! (And NOT a strategy that I learned from anyone to just dream up something that would just be fun for me to do. HA!).
With so much love,
Jenny
