Have you ever found yourself in a never-ending tug of war trying to outrun, outwork, or stay so busy trying to resist the persistent beckoning voices of your pain, loss, or struggle?

Imagine standing on the shore, facing an unyielding tide or fierce wind, demanding they change direction so you might find solace without delving into your own pain, loss, and struggle. “Please, wind, I command you to change for me,” you cry out.

Yet, as the years pass, exhaustion builds, and sadness never truly fades. Instead, it grows heavier, louder, and denser. All the while, a persistent voice within whispers that the only path to peace lies in stopping, listening, and feeling—entering that daunting space of pain where real, enduring healing begins.

Just yesterday, I had a heartfelt conversation with a dear friend who, like so many of us, finds herself ensnared by her own suffering, often to the point where each breath is a struggle. She seemed caught in a storm of resistance, trying to fight against the pain, loss, and struggle she has carried deep inside for far too long.

As she so bravely and honestly shared, she can’t move forward.

Together, my friend and I explored the idea that true healing might come from stepping into her bravery and feeling her pain rather than turning away from it.

 While no definitive conclusions were reached, seeds of courage were tenderly planted. Perhaps, in time, she may find herself no longer resisting the wind or pushing against the tide but instead pausing just long enough to rest and fully acknowledge the depth of her loss.

You see, even though she wasn’t quite ready, she was brave, and the Universe listens to brave!

I assure you that in those pivotal moments, the Universe starts to work on your behalf, helping you discover your inner strength and illuminating your path. By embracing this support, you will embark on a journey of brave healing, uncovering the courage to live fully, vibrantly, and completely.
