Speak Up

Listen. Because listening’s important:

Hi and welcome to the Re-Enchant Your Life reminder.

Your sacred pause in the day where you’re encouraged to take a moment to stop and tune into your inner wisdom and become present, so that you can reconnect to your personal power and confidently embrace who you’re becoming, as you Re-Enchant Your life and create the change you truly desire.

Today you’re being asked to gather your courage and speak up.

Tap deep into your inner resilience, to take up space and make a stand for what you believe.

Now is a time to take action.

To speak up.

To make that change.

This isn’t the time to be timid or to hold back.

Lean in with courage.

Feel your strength and wisdom in your blood and bones.

Even if it feels uncomfortable, persist.

Change brings growth, and as you break out of the old ways of doing things, you may feel afraid. Change isn’t often easy, but keep going anyway.

You are needed in the world.

Your voice, courage, and gifts need to be expressed.

If you fall, get back up again.

If you get tired, rest.

But keep going.

Now is not the time to give up permanently.

Don’t limit yourself with judgements, expectations or your own stories.

Break through any limiting beliefs, realise that the fears of others are not yours to carry.

Go beyond your known boundaries.

Stretch the limits of what you feel is possible for you.

Live with passion and courage.

Take up space in the world.

In this very moment, just pause and take a breath, as feel your confidence grow.

I’ll see you tomorrow for your daily reminder to Re-Enchant Your Life with me, Rebecca-Anuwen,

In the meantime, enjoy speaking up!

PostScript

So many times in my life I’ve been grateful that I didn’t give up, silence myself or chose the path that at the time felt easier.

In my mid-twenties I decided to close down my kinesiology practice.

I worked from a very reputable and established clinic, I was booked up months in advance and had people travel from around the country to come and see me.

I never had to advertise, all of my work was word of mouth.

And yet, in my mid- twenties I wanted to be out partying and not worrying about getting up early the next day to a full calendar of clients and being at my peak energy.

Looking back, I suppose I was verging on burn-out.

It felt easier to just quit, rather than look at what I actually needed.

So I did.

I quit.

I closed down my practice, ensured all my clients had either completed their work with me or were introduced to another kinesiologist.

However… two weeks later I was seeing clients again.

I can’t not work with people, it’s who I am.

I just needed a break, a holiday.

So I started my own clinic closer to home, changed the way that I worked and got the support I needed.

In many ways it would’ve been easier not running my own business, not working about how everything fitted together.

But working with people who want change is what I do best, helping them re-connect to their passion and purpose, so I leaned in and worked out how to make it all work to ensure my clients got me at my best, and that I got me at my best too.
