I REMEMBERED WHO I AM

Late one night, in October of 2022, I was inspired to write this poem. It encapsulated my six year healing journey at that point in time.  I included it at the conclusion of Episode 4 and posted it in two parts on Instagram. But I've had a lot of listeners ask me to post the full recording as well as the printed words. You'll find the words in the transcript section of this track. Enjoy -  And may it inspire each and every one of you to remember who YOU are.

The Façade is the mask you wear to hide the parts of you that you believe are unacceptable or shameful. It’s the personality you project into the world that covers up your true self. However, if your goal is to heal body/mind/spirit, the façade must dissolve. The façade is the personality projection you adopted and adapted to because either it was the only way to survive or because someone else kept telling you that you have to do it because nobody would “like” the real you or nobody would understand you. That’s just two examples. There are a LOT of reasons for the façade being engaged in an individual. When I say that alchemical transformation is getting to meet yourself for the first time, that person you get to meet is the real essence of you behind the façade. It’s the you without the trauma informing your personality.  It’s the you without the fear of being judged by family, friends, partners, co-workers, etc. It’s the you that doesn’t care anymore whether you’re liked or not. It’s the you that finally fits inside your skin. And to uncover all that, you have to drop the façade.

Picking up from where we ended last week, this episode continues to cover the experiences you don’t know you’ll encounter and be confronted with during your transformational healing journey. Consider it another dose of a cosmic “heads-up”. Themes include how friendships and partnerships can be affected, shadow work, The Dark Night of The Soul and much more.

About five years ago I was inspired to start a list of things I wasn’t prepared for in my own transformational healing work – things I didn’t know when I began my journey and wished I had known so that I would have been better prepared and not thought I was going mad or I was the only one experiencing these things. When I started the list, I didn’t know I would keep adding to it as the years went by, as way to chronicle the various insights I learned doing this personal work that is often mystified or romanticized by others. I hope this show (and next week’s second part) gives you a cosmic heads-up of what to expect as you traverse this often difficult path so you can move through it with a better understanding of what you are about to jump into or what you are already firmly entrenched in.

The nervous system often becomes so dysregulated over one’s lifetime and carries the trauma, the pain, the grief, the unspoken words, the unfelt rage and so much more that we dump into it when we are unhealed and asleep to our own dysfunctional way of being. That way of being, in regard to one’s nervous system, makes it impossible to do any type of healing work, especially DEEP healing, transformational work because you will allow yourself to be in a state of perpetual “fight or flight.” In this episode, I go into great detail about how that nervous energy got “implanted” into you and teach you practical ways to not only dispel it but to calm your body and mind so that you can anchor and integrate your transformational healing work with greater efficiency.

Everyone who ventures onto the personal transformation path will, at one time or another, need to shake up the inertia that often develops during one’s experience. It’s very common to behave like a child, to waste your precious energy, to do the bare minimum that is required and become overly histrionic about your life. All these qualities prevent you from powering forward. If you are truly committed to transforming your life in such a way that you eventually emerge as a stronger, more resilient and certainly more contained, mature individual, you have to grow up, you have to quit draining your energy, you certainly must expect more from yourself and you have to stop the drama, mama.
