Everything is Changing

It’s time to make a change.

I've been reflecting a lot over the past few days on the concept of change. My life seems to be in constant flux—what I do for a living, who I spend my time with, and where I live. These are the major pillars of our lives.

Recently, I witnessed someone go through a devastating change, something similar to what I experienced a few years ago that propelled me on my journey. Not all change feels positive when it happens, especially when we encounter what we perceive as a "negative" event. These moments often arise when our lives require dramatic shifts that we weren't willing to initiate ourselves—lessons we need to learn or a significant transformation of how our lives used to be, prompting us to shift timelines.

Ultimately, the more we resist change, the more we resist what we are meant to do in this lifetime. Whether big or small, the only constant in life is change. Time is always moving forward; the days flow into one another, and the seasons continually shift. We are meant to change just as much as life changes around us.

Have you ever noticed that when you feel stuck or unhappy, it’s often because nothing is changing in your life? To break free from a rut—whether emotional, mental, physical, or spiritual—change is always necessary.

The less we embrace change, the more we get stuck, leading to unhappiness that can bleed into other areas of our lives.

I hope you take a moment to recognize that everything in your life should be changing and evolving. We are constantly in a state of growth, and our relationships should evolve too. Sometimes, the people, places, or things around us grow alongside us; other times, they drift away. That’s the beauty of life—we are always in a state of flow and change.

Especially as we find ourselves at a pivotal moment of societal change, it’s time for us, both collectively and individually, to lean into whatever needs to shift in our lives. Embrace the refresh. Lean into the uncertainty of the unknown. It’s what your soul came here for.

Does your darkness define you?

Someone very wise once said to me, “I’m not afraid of darkness because I understand it”.

Darkness can be our greatest teacher. It is often through heavy moments in life or periods of darkness that we define ourselves.

Have you ever let a challenging or heartbreaking moment of pain, grief, or loss rule every emotion and ounce of your being? Have you spent weeks, months, or even years stuck in that same emotion?

This is what I call letting moments of darkness define you. In moments of intense emotional upheaval, it is pivotal to know how to process and release those feelings. If we don’t, we tend to hold onto those feelings and sometimes for a lifetime. This usually happens because the emotions tied to that event are the last shreds of evidence that we have to keep that experience or person in our life.

So if you find yourself clinging to those emotions, could it be that there is a part of you that is still clinging onto the emotional experience of that person or situation? Those very emotions is what is keeping the memory of that experience or person alive in your present.

It is time for a reality check.

The longer we hold on to the heavy emotions of the past, the more we let those emotions define us. The longer this continues, the more likely we are to become addicted to those emotions. The longer we are addicted to those emotions, the more they come to define every aspect of our existence and how we show up in the world.

You can’t fully move into the bright future that you are worthy of until you release whatever darkness is lurking in the depths of your being.

It is in this pivotal moment in time that I invite you to take a step into the unknown and do the work to start to release those emotions.

This is your sign to start to release whatever darkness or heavy emotions that you are addicted to. Those emotions are not you and they do not define you. So it’s time to stop letting them define you.

The first step to any pivotal change is bringing awareness in and I hope to have shed some light into your darkness today.

Remember the depth of darkness you are able to experience is equal to the level of light you are capable of.

It is time to let the light in.
