From Corporate Stress to Spiritual AF.
The cat’s out of the bag, folks, I’m spiritual AF.
The whole shebang; crystals, lunar cycles, human design, astrology, meditation, breathwork, trauma healing, gene keys, EFT, PSYCH-K®… you name it, I’ve been doing this stuff for years.
So why is this a big deal? Corporate conditioning and hyper-masculinity had me thinking for years that I needed to ignore my ebbs and flows as a woman, act like a man and work 10 hours a day to live in the stress of the man’s world.
What’s more, I thought that hiding that spiritual part of me was the key to success so that people wouldn’t think I was weird (or any more weird than they already thought of me).
And now that I’m finally stepping out into the world of self-employment, I have to not only embrace my true self, but I have to allow others to see me as well. In my line of work as a holistic coach and human design expert, the true me is now shining bright, and I allow others to see the conditioning that society has put on THEM so that they can come back to their true selves, find their entrepreneur identity and shine bright in the world.
But what about judgement?
Fear of being judged is probably the main reason that holds women back who are in corporate and who want to create heart-led, purposeful businesses. And it doesn’t help when you are surrounded by people who just want to crack on with the work and stay stuck in their under-paid and under-recognised job just because it’s safe to do so.
In my digital marketing advisory work, where I am working with both male and female colleagues and clients, the worry of what others will think of me for being spiritual is one that has kept the real me hidden for 5 years. Hidden in a little corner of the internet, on my little private Instagram account that no one can find, sharing my love for running businesses and doing your marketing according to your unique energy blueprint.
In actuality, I am no less of a digital marketing expert because of my spirituality, and can help grow the revenue of any SME that comes into my sphere. Masculinity (strategy and logic) meets femininity (flow and creativity) all the time in my world.
So why am I sharing this with you?
Firstly, because over the last year and I have done more and more work on the understanding of who I am as a person, and what I am designed to do in this world. And secondly, you may feel like you have to hide your true self when you’re in the office too.
I see it all the time; people pleasing is SUCH a common trait in today’s society. I was the “yes” girl in my office. Yes, I’ll stay late to get this completed, yes, I’ll do this extra piece of work for you, yes, I’ll set up the comms for this, yes, I’ll create the visuals for that. Even if I wasn’t good at the tasks, I’d take them on (practice makes perfect, ey?).
Now, I take on projects or work that I have been recognised for my skills and have been invited to contribute or lead on. If I don’t get invited, I don’t push.
My world evolves around recognition. I lead when invited.
This is one of the truly life-changing things that I have learnt about my personal strategy in life using the insanely accurate system of Human Design.
So if you know you are hiding, or are keeping the real you from being shown in this world, then it’s time to be inspired. Give me a follow here or on Instagram, and I will show you how to find your true self without a yoga retreat.
