Coming Back To You

Vancouver, BC Sunset Beach

Hello World

As I sit here journaling watching the sun majestically setting down, I think to myself how I would love to share my thoughts with you again. I was away, I thought I would have come back sooner… I thought about blogging constantly, perhaps I was reluctant to come back after such a long period of time feeling vulnerable. But I don’t worry about that now, I am who I am and an example of showing bravery and courage.

The pandemic, the passing of my adorable mother and then to be forced to move from a community that I loved for 30 years impacted my health…. in spite of believing I was invincible! I know better now.

I regained my health, thanks to my wise naturopath, ( more about her later) and settled in my new home which is more than I had envisioned and dreamt about in its most simplest way, ( also more about that later ) and finally now, I am back!

I want you all to know that I still have more than ever a profound passion for facilitating positive change and empowering others and I’m dedicated to facilitating positive change in our lives and communities. My journey is fueled by a deep passion for helping others discover their potential and transcend their limitations. 

As a facilitator, each of my sessions, my connection with community is an opportunity for me to practice what I advocate- it comes naturally. I believe in the power of mindset and the importance of stepping out of our comfort zones. It’s here, in the realm of risk-taking, its in the here and now that transformation occurs and the magic happens. I guarantee it!

I am passionate about nurturing self-belief, encouraging us to focus on what we can achieve rather than what we can’t. The secret to our success lies in our faith—in ourselves, our dreams, and our ability to manifest our visions into reality.

I aim to plant the seeds of possibility and guide others in their journey to bring their goals and dreams to life. Together, let’s unlock our potential and create the lives we envision. We have the power to do so!

I’m offering my experience to guide or enlighten community in hopes that it will shine a light on any doubt that occurs in our day to day lives. To continue to fuel the butterfly effect… generating common ground to lift each other up!

Just writing this at this moment has already lifted me up knowing that I can contribute to humanity in my way. I’m aiming for my efforts to circle back and lift you up, too..

Thank you for reading my post💜

Secrets

It’s taken me two years to post this. I kept it in draft all this time ignoring it. I now feel it’s a safe space among us bloggers and readers to post. There is nothing to hide.

I was standing at a bus stop holding my face up to the sun thinking about current relations in my life when suddenly I realized just how many events and experiences in my life have been kept a secret! How many relationships held a secret in one way or another. I was standing there just floored by the sudden thought… the pattern just never occurred to me.

Especially men, my fathers violence towards my mother, my suppressed marriage, my first new relationship after ending a 16 year marriage, and finally my new found love and discovering his addiction to alcohol that regrettably took his life 15 years ago.

Secrets kept are not healthy, when secrets are held within they will begin to simmer, then boil and gradually overflow or explode and thats when it becomes dangerous. There is resentment, grudges and hateful feelings not only to the significant other you are keeping the secret about but to your precious self as well. There will be damage. It’s destructive. You can’t stay boxed in holding on to the secret, because to suppress your feelings and not let your feelings be told only turns negative itself and creates a weakness. One way or another you will be affected. The positive side to this cause and effect is if you catch it in time you can rebel and reveal the truth, reconcile in time before there is too much damage done. You can break away from the solitude, it won’t be easy, their will be challenges but in the long run you will be set free!

Set yourself free!

I’m unlocking one more secret….after all secrets of love is not meant to be hidden only celebrated. I have to make a choice. I’m beginning to feel the freedom.

I am strong, I can do this.

I’m here.

What Rocks You?

Many years ago while sitting with a co-worker and sharing my passion and dream of how I would like to some day run empowerment workshops to encourage people to follow their hearts. At the time I had a long list of names I would call it such as, Power of Women or just, POW or HEART…. I think I even thought of my own name EVA with each letter representing words of enlightment and abundance…. any way, I was going on about my vision so close to my heart and the difference we can make for others and the simplicity of it. I  told her I know its possible because I myself have discovered, encountered and experienced enough to believe in the power of visions. Then for some weird reason, I reached down into the side cushion of the couch I was sitting on and felt  a rock nuzzled deep within the couch, I pulled it out and on it was written  Strength and Power with a bears paw stamped on it. I just looked at her surprised and she said to me with astonishment, I think you just made your case!”

I carry that rock with me whenever I need  reminding of the possibilities life offers us and, to sustain my dreams and visions.

What rocks you?

Share with me your power…what makes you strong and fuels you to carry on?
