Fullness Unfolding: I choose to let my authentic Self bloom from the inside out

"If an egg is broken by outside force, life ends. If broken by inside force, life begins. Great things always begin from inside." -Tamara Kulish

Society places so much pressure, judgment, and shame on mothers and women. When we let these cultural norms run our lives, it feels like the walls are caving in. We lose our Selves, shrinking to fit the mold, combustable, triggered, and never enough.

Hot lava of resentment bubbles beneath the surface, activated at any instant when we are overstimulated, under supported, compare ourselves to others or who we were before having kids. Yearning to be her but feeling so far away from her. Lost in this darkness, we feel shoved in a corner and kicked down no matter what we do when we are are searching for external validation and to please others- an impossible feat that we continue to allow to control us- running into the same brick wall over and over. Feeling like a failure in a system designed to fail us.

What would it feel like to let go of all of this? To cut the cords that society strong through us- no longer a puppet to the patriarchal systems in place. Instead, we remember the divine creative energy that brought us into the mother role. Reintegrating her with out higher Self, intrinsic values, and passions. Nourishing this flame within to create a life that feels good from the inside out. Unique to us and our family's needs and desires. Shifting the center of gravity to the heART of our souls and nuclear family.

It is not out duty to please others- the empty cups that demand to be filled by others most likely have leaks- no matter how much we pour into their cups, they will always thirst for more. Pulling us further from our centers and out of alignment with our authentic purpose.

Instead, we choose to fill our own cup first. Be the change. Embody our values and hold up the mirrors of resonance for others to feel permission to do the same for themselves. Surrendering any attachment to outcome because there is no end goal to the cyclicality of being human, and being a mother. Embracing the bitter and the sweet. Letting go of expectations we have placed on ourselves and others. Lifting the veils to allow our true nature to shine.

Love is unconditional. Joy is at our core. When we tend to our own flame, we are a light unto others, inviting them to connect to their own light within and shine. Permission to sip this sweet sovereignty. Trading the desire to conform and be shaped by others with the desire to bloom from the inside out. Vulnerably showing who we are- beautiful, unique, expressions of divine love. This community of women blooming from the inside out is not a manicured garden with shaped hedges but a field of wildflowers- let's meet in the field.

"Out beyond the ideas of wrong doing and right doing, there is a field. Meet me there." -Rumi

Remember, no one can tell you the right or wrong way to be you. You are the only expert of you.

I am the sunflower, the seed, and the dance between.

Joy is inside of me. Continually unfolding & expanding.
