Ep #12: My Biggest Lessons & Healing in 2023 {Solo Episode‪}‬ OF THE EARTH with Mariana Rittenhouse

    • Spirituality

Hello loves!! Welcome to 2024! I am so happy to be in this new year–it feels abundant, expansive and full of adventure. But today, I want to let you in on a little secret:
I worked my butt off for it!!
2023 was a year with so many painful patterns, overdue clearings & deep inner work…it honestly kind of rocked me!
On the outside it looked like nothing but expansion: new Tea house, new Tea company, new boyfriend…
But on the inside, bringing all of these dreams & desires back into my life brought up a lot of fear & distrust. In order to really claim what I wanted, I needed to learn new ways of being that reflect the balanced, grounded & light-filled life I’ve created since the last time I was in any of these dynamics.
You may or may not remember, but I’ve kept a pretty low profile since my life collapsed almost six years ago. The things that hurt me – work, love, community – were seriously put on the back burner as I got back on my feet.
But here’s the thing…Avoidance isn’t healing.”Not being ready to go there” isn’t healing.Being OK without these things…also not healing.
When I was finally courageous enough to invite these levels of intimacy back into my life, I feel like I picked up right where I left off in terms of my healing journey…and while I was humbled by life, I found that I was also supported by all that I feared.
And because of that, I finally got out of the way and let myself H E A L.
In today’s episode I share vulnerably about this process in three areas of my life–reopening my Tea House, stepping back into relationship & launching de la Tierra Teas.
I’m excited to hear how this resonates with you. Feel free to leave a comment below.
