WE LEFT ONE YEAR AGO YESTERDAY!
OMG… It was one year ago that our best mate was taking us to the airport for our first leg of what we thought was a 3.5 month adventure around the world.
16kgs on my back for me and Sam… 20 kgs for Hugh, Robbie and extra bits… That’s it. For 3.5 months of travel. Such a liberating experience to have so few things, physically. AND… we actually had stuff we didn’t use in that space…
And around the world we went. We packed up our home, movers came, we cleaned it and got on a plane for an epic adventure all within a week. By far one of the most stressful and exhausting weeks of my life.
In my dreams… I didn’t think I would be typing this message looking at beautiful trees and smelling the summer mountain rain in Denver 1 year later.
Looking back over the year… what we did, was not for the faint of heart. I am well aware that there are very few people in this world who would dare to do what we have done.
When we looked at every aspect of the trip and knew that we could do it from a time and financial perspective… it got real and we had to make the decision… Book those tickets.
When I sat with it… I knew in every cell of my body that the answer had to be YES.
Here is my biggest reasons why…
How could I not? I teach manifesting… I teach living a dream life… I teach making your dreams come true… and when all the stars aligned to make this happen… if I didn’t, I would have felt like a fraud. I couldn’t have shown my face here and led you to do the same.
To me… a leader leads by example. By showing up and DOING AND BEING who they are creating space for you to be.
It’s that simple.
Why on Earth would you follow someone who says one thing and does another?
So… that was one big reason.
The other…
TRUST.
Without a doubt, one of my biggest lessons in this lifetime that I get to learn over and over again on deeper levels is to TRUST.
I manifested an incredible hubby who has this innate trust that everything will always be ok… and it is. He’s not wrong.
He’s talked me down off of many crazy ledges thinking that we are doomed. Which of course, we weren’t. Just my lack of trust… my feelings of lack…
And then… i find myself back in flow, back in asking and receiving… back in manifesting what I want, not what I don’t want.
And so I trust some more.
In this lifetime… I get the pleasure of learning to trust myself, others and the universe.
And this trip… was all about trust for me.
Learning to trust that we would be taken care of and everything would unfold just as it was meant to.
A deep trust, following the signs, my intuition… with nothing to keep me stuck, in one place. With nothing or anyone to hold me back.
Trust.
Deepen my faith in all that is out there guiding me… showing me the way and totally surrender into that.
Yeah… we saw tons of cool things, more than most see in a lifetime.
Yeah, we hung out with incredible people, LOVED seeing family and friends… it was all an incredible part of the journey…
But the biggest reason of all for me was to take my work, my trust, my faith, my surrender, my knowing… ALL OF IT… way deeper. Embody it even more.
AND… we all did, not just me.
We followed signs, feelings, intuition that led us to make a family decision to stay in Denver.
TRUST.
I mean… who the hell does that?
Moves to a new country, unplanned, with no work lined up and 2 kids?
We did.
I still think it’s insane.
AND… such an amazing decision for us.
We miss Australia… every day. We miss our friends, family, the ocean, Aussies…
And yet…I look around at my life and feel amazingly grateful for what we have created for ourselves here.
We have a world class gym with people who fly in from all around the US and the world every week to train from this gym. They stay here for 2-4 weeks JUST TO TRAIN at the gym. Yeah… Hugh did too. It’s what sold him on Denver.
We have an incredible spiritual centre that blows my mind… I get to go every week, at least once a week for services or classes or meetups… all based around my spiritual beliefs. We talk about abundance, prosperity, goal setting, receiving, peace on earth, trust, faith… SO MUCH.
My kids get to go to sunday school there… and learn about forgiveness, love, chakras, connection to source… I mean I pinch myself when I hear them talking about it saying they learned it at sunday school.
And it’s 10 min away from me. And it feeds my soul, our souls.
We get to give our kids the Waldorf Steiner education that we all love… and it’s free, because some parent dreamed of creating a public school with the waldorf principles. And so it is. And Robbie’s teacher is so perfect for Robbie. It’s been ideal.
We have a HUGE backyard… with kid neighbors that are all around the same age as mine. They run outside and play and have friends… and they go between houses and are safe and have fun. It’s so beautiful to experience.
We have this stunning rose garden that gets more beautiful and surreal every day. I just keep wondering how it happened? How did I grow up and get a house with a yard and stunning garden that lights up my heart every time I see it? How do I have 2 incredible children who are so emotionally intelligent and spiritually aware and for the most part… respectful and kind of other people?
I am leaving space in my life to focus on ME. MY mindset, MY heath, MY abundance, MY business, MY creativity, MY passions… ME. AND… It’s paying off.
We have joined the incredible Keto movement and honestly… I feel the best I have ever felt. My brain is clear, my energy is through the roof, my body feels at peace. I listen to myself, I honour myself, I just feel so good! I know you can see it.
Between that and truly stepping into my soul’s purpose, honouring myself, taking time for me, writing, connecting with you… I’m buzzing all day long. In the most incredible wonderful way.
Not the way of adrenaline coursing through my veins… not feeling like I’m going to burn out and collapse on the floor… not because I feel like someone is going to kick my butt if I don’t, definitely not from a place of fear.
I’m buzzing with energy, joy, happiness, gratitude… that I get to create EVERY REALITY in my world. AND.. instead of feeling stuck and not creating what I want… i have created a blank canvas and I only paint on there exactly what I want. I ask for it… raise my vibes to BE IT… and ALLOW IT to come to me.
I mean… How did my life get to be SO FRICKING AMAZING?
And… continue to get even more amazing every day?
I get to bring together EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF ME… and BE ALL OF IT. And SHARE ALL OF IT. With my family, myself, you…
It’s freedom. It’s a blessing. It’s magic.
But really… it’s not magic. It’s law.
It’s manifesting.
ANYONE can do this.
OR whatever YOUR dream may be.
AND… as more and more of my dreams become reality… I dream bigger.
I have said this before, but right before we left… I had been thinking about my “wish list” and what I wanted to create in my world. We had ticked off most of them. And I knew eventually we would get to create new ones, but we have been so present living the ones we were creating that it’s literally only in this past month that they are getting clearer and bigger and “scarier”, because it definitely means STEPPING UP, even more.
My deep trust and faith is being asked to go yet another level deeper to allow myself to receive the next big dream that is only just starting to form, to come to reality.
But the thing is… I know… if this is what we (my family and I) ALL truly want… it will happen. The adventure will continue.
(No… it’s not for sharing yet… it’s still in infancy and forming).
This last year has been nothing short of amazing. It has been wild and full of adventure, new sights, mind expanding moments, incredible time as a family… connecting, honouring and supporting each other. I am so blessed to be so close, such a tight unit with all of us.
There is so much love and appreciation and understanding for all of our strengths and weaknesses. My boys hold me to a higher standard. In Keto work, they are my biggest fans… and don’t let me eat sugar. It’s gorgeous. They make sure I move… They ask to go on bike rides for them, but also to get me up and moving… They do my 8 minute workouts with me. It’s beautiful.
This last year tested all of us on so many levels. It took every ounce of courage and strength we could muster. It took and still takes BUCKET LOADS of patience as we deal with the red tape of an international move.
It has taken me on the biggest, deepest journey of forgiveness and love as I come back to America. A place I grew up, but left. And so facing my past, facing some big stuff that has been here for me to deal with, facing myself, facing what I left… I have had to go deep and forgive and love deeper than ever before.
It has taken me to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL in my work. My intuition, my knowing, my trust in all the messages I receive is so crazy powerful right now. And so I surrender into that… and feel so blessed that I get to be a part of massive change in the most wonderful way in people’s lives.
I get to hold space for you to see ALL OF YOU… and be the absolute best version of YOU through so many fun and creative outlets. I mean I pinch myself… and I feel so grateful and blessed.
Is this really my life?
YES… YES… YES…
IT IS MY LIFE.
I have held space for this and been creating it for years… and know I look around and have landed in it. Landed in my dreams.
And now that I have taken my trust, my own personal work to a whole new level… I get to make things happen faster and faster, because I believe even more deeply in everything about this.
And… I get to help you do it too.
I mean really… what a crazy year.
AND.. how super cool that our bestie that dropped us at the airport one year ago today, is here with us now… in Denver?
I feel so blessed to have created incredible friendships with other people who live life on their terms and travel the world, so of course, coming to see us on their way to Canada wasn’t even an option to say no to. Of course they are here. AND of course, more friends are coming.
Of course… because I asked for it.
Because this is the life I dreamed of, worked towards, chose and created.
Of course it happens like this.
I hope that if you have read this far… ONE of the things you take away from this is that… you too can have this or whatever it is you are wishing to create.
I am no different to anyone else… I just have tools and beliefs that have helped me create this dream into reality.
And… I’m here to lead the way for my own life and for you to realise… you can create an EPIC life on YOUR TERMS too.
I sit here feeling so grateful that we said yes to our epic adventure that had us on a plane 1 year ago today. I feel grateful for all the yes’s and no’s we have had since that day that we have tuned into and followed.
I feel grateful for an incredible 3 people that have journeyed this with me and done it so gracefully and with such ease. I feel so grateful for WHO I AM as a person to even begin to dream up this dream and bring 3 other people along with me for the ride. I feel so grateful for WHO THEY ARE that they said YES.
I feel so grateful for all your love and support as we have gone through this journey and welcomed in so many new things and people into our world and continue to let go of what doesn’t serve us.
I feel so grateful for not allowing myself to fall back into some of the horrible routines and patterns I created over the years that led to such exhaustion and burnout. And instead… truly honouring me and putting so much of myself first. For the first time in my life.
I feel grateful that by doing that… I am showing up as the best version of me and my relationship with myself, my family, my friends and you is getting better and better.
Honestly… I could go on for the deep gratitude and sense of peace in my life right now… all because one year ago today… we had the courage to leave everything we knew behind and go to explore the world and ourselves… to find ourselves in the here and now… and give ourselves the time and space to get in touch with what is truly important to us… to what we truly want and desire… to how we truly want to show up… to create the next level version of ourselves.
And if you ask me… I think we are doing a dang good job of it. 🙂
And so it is.
1 year later… I sit here in Denver, waiting for my bestie to get up so we can go to the mountains and explore a new area of Colorado… I will have done my soul’s work for the day… and I can release knowing I am abundant and will continue to receive… even on a fun day out with friends.
Life is good! Actually… Life is amazing.
Remember… follow your heart and create your dreams,
