My first night with the ladies was awesome....I love hearing about the human condition, and seeing a willingness in people to face that, and do their best to overcome it all.....this human thing ain't easy....not at all....and I think these women are going to find so much success up ahead....many of them already having found exercise at one time in their lives, and losing their way on and off......so this is exciting to begin the journey to see where it all goes....:) It is such an honor to be able to walk with them:) I also will be beginning my own journey next Monday. I have a zoom before my coaching series next Monday, to begin working with that group of people that I am a part of, to publish that book in fall! It is a culmination of all of our stories, each of us getting a chapter....and my first draft of my chapter is due in May.....and we have another speaking engagement on March 4th to promote it online.....similar to the one I did a little while back....getting on and telling my story.....and I am so excited about where this will take me....the doors that will open....the things that will find me, because I put myself in the right place at the right time....and didn't let fear hold me back.....just saying YES YES YES......even when I wasn't sure how it would unfold.....so it will be great to get more information about where this year is headed...and I had mentioned their first volume is doing amazing....so I am certain ours will too:) It feels like the thing.....I love the concept of it too....people having undergone traumatic circumstances and triumphed over them in some way.....each of us stepping into a chapter and telling our story and sharing our truth....all for different reasons but all sharing a common thread.....there is something so powerful about sharing a story out loud too....especially one that came bearing such intense pain and suffering....and releasing the power some by giving it room to breathe.....not shoving it away....not hiding it.....not giving it any power anymore....And each time I get the chance to express it all, it releases more of what I have to carry, and reminds me of how far I have come, and how much I have to feel good and grateful about...there are still parts of the story I haven't fully shared out loud....and I walk a line on that due to my children....and honoring a certain space.....so I will trust that my chapter unfolds as it should......allowing the pieces to come together....connecting my fingers to my heart, and letting it all flow out onto my computer screen.....I also am really hopeful that my own book comes together in 2024, and I figure out a way to get it published.....it isn't easy to get a book published, or cheap....and I am trusting the path of all of it....just like I have every step of the way.....my own book delves into some of those other spaces that haven't fully seen the light of day...and it has been a deep journey so far in the writing of it....and writing is something I always like to do....always......but when you are writing for a specific purpose, you have to sort of wait for the mood to strike some, or inspiration to find you....So I am listening for the nudges, and the times when it seems appropriate to pick it up and keep going.....I am so excited about all of it.....all of what is up ahead in this year....I wrote early on in the New Year about feeling like the air is different in 2024 and I mean it;-) It feels totally different than the past couple....like some stuff is freeing up in a real way.....opening up that cosmic highway, after some traffic jammed it up some, and letting me hit the passing lane, sun shining, tunes blaring, wind in my hair, and I am here for it ALL! And just grateful......just so so grateful that I get to LIVE THIS life, this exact one, each and every day:) Have a great day:)
