Loss in the Midst of Gain

I’m not ready to talk about it, but I reference it, because it relates to something I must talk about.

This week contained some of the highest highs.

I hit a new threshold on Instagram, took the stage at the Boston Writer’s Salon and hit a substantial business milestone. I also partied at the Disco Barn with the most incredible group of female writers in Boston.

For the first time in years, it felt like everything I had been wishing and praying for was finally happening.

Then, life presented me with heartbreak in a way that I was very much not ready to face.

Typical, right?

I’m not saying that “bad things” need to happen to quantum leap your life.

But why is it that the two often coincide?

In those moments of tremendous loss, like when you get unexpectedly let go, or someone who felt like forever leaves, there is a lot of energetic opportunity in the space that follows.

This tender time reiterates the importance of believing in a future that supersedes your current circumstances more than ever.

A life you live fully, and look back and feel proud of the person you became in the process.

When you think about all the alternative timelines, don’t you want to experience the sensation of undeniability that you’re on the right one?

The path to your dreams will require letting go of parts of yourself who you’ve been in the past.. and it often requires being willing to get really honest with yourself about what’s not working… so that you can finally start to align to the future that reflects who you know you you’ve always been meant to be.
