Grief, Grit and Gorgeousness
What loss, life change or grief moments have you experienced that have been messy, but you now feel the call to use this grief and grit to have something better? Or be even more gorgeous?
How can grief (or you) be gorgeous amidst that unbearable feeling of loss, sadness and mess that you never saw coming, or perhaps you were part of a decision that created mayhem? That grief has hit you like a Japanese Shinkanzen high-speed train. Your life as you imagined has been shattered. You feel smashed to smithereens. And you feel far from gorgeous!
Meet some darn inspiring gals whose lives were shattered and messy, but whose life mosaic looks gorgeous now. Their life turn-around happened from speaking up!
I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing their transformation knowing that the grieving process was unavoidable, and in fact required, that they’ve pulled an enormous amount of grit and resourcefulness out of their wreckage, and most importantly their bold voice was what transformed their lives for the better.
Meet Sue. About to be married into a cult-marriage and living an obsessive-compulsive and depressed life masked by an eating disorder, I had belief in her power of decision and voice to make changes. One day while on holiday, I unexpectantly ran into her in Australia where she had estranged herself from the mess and moved land to make changes. Mighty!
Meet Nancy. Having relinquished her kids in a moment of exhaustion to her not-so-lovely ex, she started to value her own value, renewed her energy and made gains with having a voice. Reuniting with her girls and getting them bac was special.
And how about Denise? At a loss with the loss of her grandbaby with health complaints, she desired continued connection with him somehow. As we left our session, music came from out of the blue in the neighbourhood and was the same music that was played at his funeral. Her voiced desire was manifested, and he had a voice of connection in the Spirit World to reassure her.
And meet Gina. Having been raped, she had to make a bold decision whether to stand in court of not. Despite the invasion through questioning, she decided she would stand for the sake of herself, her daughters and other women. Her rapist was imprisoned and later deported. She began to feel safe physically and emotionally and found the love of her life.
And how about Kate who was on death’s doorstep with anorexia? What she learned was to voice what she wanted and needed, rather than “obeying” others. Standing up for herself, meant she no longer had to “voice things” through food deprivation.
In absolute awe of these inspiring women, what was the common piece of their shattered lives into beautiful mosaic stories? They spoke up. They voiced what mattered. They found courage to know their value.
Be in touch and let’s start that transformation together. (link to calendly booking system or contact email)
(NB. For privacy reasons, I don’t mention their names, but here’s a loud shout-out to their courage and conviction to speak up and change their own lives.)
