Trust in a Trusted Community

Hey, Friends!

Did you know that once you have an idea - that reflects 10% of the work towards your goal? And when your idea has a plan that brings you 50% closer to your goal? Did you know that telling somebody about your idea and sharing your plan brings you to 65% towards your goal? Perhaps you knew that. But did you know that once you have an accountability person or trusted community that you check in with regularly, that brings you 90% closer to your goals and aspirations?

Fascinating, right? Today, I'm talking about how a trusted community is essential to the success of your personal growth and transformation. This topic goes deeper than apparent and obvious reasons. I will share four important actions you should take for a trusted community to bring you 90% closer to your goals.

So stick with me, and let's dive in.

Personal Awakening

1. Let's narrow the focus and look at a specific area of your personal life where you have an idea of what you want to transform into. I will repeat it again and say that it's essential to have a trusted community supporting you along your journey. It works even if your "idea" is a glimmer of where you're trying to get to.

I've personally benefited from trusted communities over and over. Shoot! This podcast came about from an energetic group that eventually narrowed down to one of the most dynamic, soulful groups of women I'm blessed to call friends. I know a trusted community works. And here are four key actions I've found absolutely required for a trusted community to bring you 90% closer to your results and transformation!

1 - Be in your authority.

First and positively, the most important place to start is to operate in your authority. But what does this mean? Personal authority is to humbly listen for and honor what is true for you while being respectful and compassionate of others.  

When you operate in your authority, you allow what wishes to come through you and be. You're not giving up your personal power nor taking on someone else's. You're not swirling in a group. Instead, you can influence or call on your thoughts and inner knowing.

Being in your authority may surface through your mindset, emotions, self-talk, what you listen to and read, and even the time spent with friends.

So operating in your authority is the biggest indicator of how a trusted community brings you closer to your aspirations and transformation. And I've found that it also roots you in living a fuller life of purpose and grace.

2 - Establish a direction.

You need a direction in life. So, let's look at this a bit closer. It's one thing to seek happiness. Who doesn't want more of that? But, it's a whole nother thing to understand what happiness means to you. What it feels like and maybe what it looks like. That idea, notion, or inclination is your direction. 

Now let's make this tangible. What have you been dreaming about, and are ready to bring it forward but unsure where to start? Or maybe there's a new direction you want to go in your life, but things keep getting in the way. Perhaps you are ending something so that you can start something new and need support unwinding and rewinding to prepare for the new.

These are all directions towards a personal awakening, and you need a direction.

3 - Magnetize connections.

Now that you are operating in your authority and have a sense of direction towards your personal awakening - you need connections. You need to magnetize meaningful relationships with people traveling on a similar path. When you do this, you reconnect with the power of being in a tribal community. You find a renewed sense of kinship.

This is so important for your awakening because of the transformational era we're in. That means many of us are waking up and stepping into the river of transformation that is alive and flowing right now. And through meaningful connections with people on a similar path, you have your canoe filled with people you can count on to support your transformation. Not only do they become your support, but they're also your safety and inspiration. They help you access meaning, purpose, and profound clarity so you can move forward in life with intention and authenticity. 

So, you need to magnetize meaningful relationships with people traveling on a similar path. 

4 - Allow and receive.

Now that you are operating in your authority, have a direction, and have established meaningful connections -you need to allow and be open to receiving.

• Allow self-discovery so you receive real-time insights. 
• Allow new approaches so you receive new ways of doing things.
• Allow connection with your core spirit so you receive wisdom from your true Self and the Universe. 
• Allow the unexpected to happen, so you receive opportunities not even on the radar of your awareness yet serve your highest good.

From now to next year, there will be a lot of earth and water energy. And when you combine earth and water, you have mud. And you need messy mud to sculpt something new. So even if you have a plan to move you closer to your goal, remember that we're in an era where you're looking at how to do things differently. 

I mentioned this a couple of episodes ago, and it's worth bringing up again as it directly relates to allowing and receiving. You may find this time similar to when we entered the pandemic in March and April 2020. It was a time when the structures and processes we grounded ourselves in became fluid and moved with uncertainty through the twists and turns. Astrologers, philosophers, and many prophecies see more of this coming next year. 

So, expect the unexpected. And that's why it's important to allow and receive. What you expect to happen may not happen. Instead, what will happen is entirely different and not even on the radar of your awareness. So, when you allow and receive, you openly reconnect with the mystery of the universe.

Full Circle

To come full circle, when you have an idea, a plan, and you share it with somebody - that brings you 65% towards your goal and aspirations. And it's when you have a trusted community you check in with regularly that gets you 90% closer. And I've found that when it comes to your personal awakening - there are four vital actions necessary when stepping into a trusted community:

1. Be in your authority.
2. Establish a direction.
3. Magnetize connections.
4. Allow and receive.

Main Takeaways

The main takeaways from today's episode are...

• When you access and operate from your native energy, you're at the helm and leading the way to discover the changes you seek.
• When you establish meaningful connections, you reconnect with the power of being in a tribal community and find a renewed sense of kinship during this transformational era.
• Through shared experiences, stories, and lessons - you re-remember how to be in your agency so you can allow and receive clarity, meaning, and purpose to consciously travel along your path. 

Sacred Circle

Suppose I'm tracking, and this scent leads to you seeking a trusted community for your personal awakening. In that case, I invite you to join my fall Sacred Circle. 

It's a high-value, premium experience organized thoughtfully and intuitively so you can have your own experience while benefiting and learning from the circle.

The Sacred Circle will be limited to 12 women who travel together through a 4-week journey starting September 6th. We'll meet weekly for self-exploration and self-discovery while experiencing the power and support of the group.

If this hits home, here's what you need to know before joining. First, you need to take 3 of the 4 vital actions I covered today.

• Be in your authority.
• Have a direction.
• And be open to allowing and receiving.

Then you can relax knowing I've got everything else covered so you can magnetize connections. I have a fertile garden ready for you to plant yourself in so you can magnetize meaningful relationships with people traveling on a similar personal awakening path. 

When you join the fall Sacred Circle, you will...

• Be in conversation with people like you who are curious and courageously ready to take the leap in finding themselves.
• Be seen, heard, and celebrated.
• Feel held and supported, so you can be vulnerable.

The Sacred Circle provides you with a guide and a tribe. You connect with a guide or helping spirit for divine support. You also connect with a compassionate group of like-minded beings ready to nurture a specific transformation or aspiration in their lives. The circle catalyzes honest conversations held with loving kindness so that you cultivate tribal relationships and create a life with meaning. 

I'm polishing up things on my end so that you have a super easy way to join the fall Sacred Circle.
