My 2024 wish for you: EPIC Self-Trust

The heart and soul of my own healing journey (life journey maybe?) has been Self-Trust. 

It’s been the roots for everything else to grow from. 

I didn’t realize it as I was going through the harsh winters and dark nights of the soul. 

But looking back, I’ve been able to connect the dots. I see now that all the tools, methods, practices, collaborations, setbacks, and moments of exponential growth… they all were aspects of Self-Trust. 

On the surface, they might not seem connected: 

  • Taking up a yoga practice + leaving a marriage

  • Facing difficult conversations + traveling solo

  • Being honest about past trauma + creating a vision board

  • Starting a business + grieving a loved one’s death

  • Coming off hormonal birth control + having mystical experiences with mushrooms 

  • Solo hiking + exploring sexuality 

But now, through the lens of Self-Trust, it all makes sense. 

All of these seemingly unrelated experiences were opportunities for me to know myself better. And trust myself more. 

  • I’ve felt how transformative trusting myself has been. 

  • I’ve felt the confidence and expansion on the other side. 

  • I’ve felt the insecurities and self-doubt fade. 

Now, I’ve been around long enough and worked with enough people to know that I can’t just prescribe the list above and expect you to have the same results. The details likely won’t be the same for you. 

The specifics of HOW you build Self-Trust will vary. But, I can say with a good amount of confidence that fostering more Self-Trust is the way to create the life YOU want to live. 

It’s the path to an intentional life. 

That’s why if YOU want to live a life on purpose in 2024, my wish for you is… 

Epic Self-Trust.
