REDEEMING DESTINY: Dancing Into Unexpected Truth

REDEEMING DESTINY: Dancing Into Unexpected Truth

"Redeeming Destiny was a difficult book to write and even more difficult to send out into the world.  It highlights nearly every mistake I have ever made and there have been more than you can imagine.  I would not have written it if I didn't believe that it was going to help someone else find the healing and hope that I have discovered.  I hope this book encourages others that all of us are worthy of love, no matter what our choices have been or the choices that perhaps have been imposed upon us by others."

Not sure who said this but if I did I’d give credit. Still genius. I’ve been both. Used to be full of toxicity. Not any more. Conserving my energy for greater things!

I don’t know why this is so funny. Maybe because I didn’t get it at first, but once someone explained it... like I can’t stop laughing. Ten minutes after... eye watering laughter. This can’t be real can it?

Everything we need to know about life, we can lear
Everything we need to know about life, we can learn from a toddler. 
. 
Hell hath no fury like a toddler scorned. 
.
Not even kidding. For 45 minutes she screamed with all the fury her little body could hold, she threw things, she writhed and rolled and flailed about. 
.
During her meltdown I was thinking, wow this is a whole lot of negative energy being put out into the world. Once the raging storm subsided though, I was overwhelmed with gratitude that all that energy didn’t stay stuck inside her little body. She instinctually knows how to get it all out and she wasn’t stopping until her body was spent. 
.
Rewind six years and my oldest often did the same but was met with my own intense rage, using the fear of punishment to regain or maintain control. The difference between the two is palpable. 
.
I can’t help but think that toddlers hold all the secrets to living life completely in touch with their emotional bodies. 
.
When we punish ourselves or attempt to suppress our own emotions, we inevitably do the same with our kids, but I’ve learned the more we allow ourselves and others to feel, the more we heal. ❤️

The best thing that has ever happened to me is motherhood. 
.
Currently sandwiched between my two spitfires. In walks lily, ever grounding, between the two. 
.
As we lay here I can’t help but think about all that each of these beautiful souls have taught me in how to be a better human. 
.
Abby(oldest)...at six years old no longer excepting an apology from me for my out of control rage, because I was just “going to do it again.” In that moment she lit a flame that’s continued to burn towards healing and wholeness. 
.
Lily... who melted into tears at the first sound of a raised voice, which in turn melted my own hardened heart into softness. 
.
Shiloh... full of fire and fearless because, well, by the third I’ve learned some things about my own trauma, triggers, and still unhealed places. 
.
Each kid has had a very different mother, but all three have taught me more than anything how to love better. They’ve shown me all the places that still haven’t healed and even as i work towards wholeness, they too become more whole humans that hopefully won’t have to unravel as much as I’ve had to. 
.
Let your kiddos teach you all the wisdom their little uncaged souls already know...

Strawberry, blueberry, banana @kachavatribe shake. Y’all this is the only way to start your day. I’m not kidding when I say this is packed with all things healthy and good!

It’s time... time to move forward, to start dreaming of and then creating the life I’m meant to live. 
.
It’s been a long journey through narrow valleys, wondering if I’d ever make it to the base of the mountain, let alone the long climb to the top. 
.
I’ve been looking in the review mirror for three years, uncovering layers of hidden baggage that I’ve packed around for most of my life. 
.
I’ve unraveled all the stories that have kept me stuck. Trauma, shame, abandonment, religion.  Releasing it all, surrendering to the process, and trusting the unfolding. 
.
If you’re in the beginning stages of your healing process and it still feels like too much, too hard, too painful... don’t give up. 
.
You’re worth it. This one beautiful life we live is worth it. One day you’ll breathe a deep sigh of relief as you realize you made it through. 
.
Healing is messy. It’s not pretty.  When you climb out of the valley and you get to the base of that mountain, turning your gaze upwards, finally believing you have what it takes to make it to the top, there’s nothing on earth quite like it, except maybe the view expanding out before you after you climb that last little trek. 
.
For a once drug addicted, lost, and wandering around wounded human to be standing where I am now is beyond me, but if I can do it anyone can and today I’m just so filled with gratitude...
