THIS BOOK WILL TAKE you through a journey of self-discovery. Through twists and turns, occasional setbacks and defeats, yet persistently towards the unencumbered light that has always been there to guide you, is still there, beckoning a reunion. Let’s explore the steps of this passage from Good Girl to a Badass who is living in her truth and changing the world with her presence.
Along the way, we will be learning tools that will guide your journey, just as Dorothy encountered demons and challenges, she also received guidance and gifts, and so will you.
- The Fracture. This is where the root cause of where the self-doubt and shame began. It’s time to grow up, get out of the past and into who you are now. We will explore how somewhere along the line, most of us received a wound or fracture that disconnected us from our true nature. What was the message you received? When did you stop being yourself, so you would belong? Whose voice is it that you’re using against yourself?
- The Good Girl. How does being a Good Girl block access to your inner wisdom? We need to learn how to live in integrity with ourselves. This means doing what WE want and need to do, rather than what we believe we should do. To follow and stay true to this guidance, it is essential that we develop clear boundaries. This means speaking our truth and saying “no” when we need to rather than saying “yes” so that we don’t ruffle feathers, hurt feelings or appear unhelpful. Having strong boundaries also means choosing to clear up conflicts instead of avoiding them.
- New Beliefs. Learning the process of identifying and questioning beliefs that are sucking our power and keeping us small is the most integral tool that I use with women who want to pursue a dream. This is about breaking free of the thoughts that something is wrong with you. Identifying the self-berating things you say to yourself. We will explore neuroplasticity and how our thoughts create our experience of life.
- Original Medicine. Your Original Medicine or unique genius is the gift you must offer the world. We will go through your life experiences and explore the ways that you show up to serve. This unique quality that you and you alone have is what a life calling is built around. It is the foundation of who you are and were born to be.
- Hold Fast to Your Thread. Our bodies are the loud speakers of our souls, we need only to learn how to listen to the guidance that is there. We will learn how to use body wisdom to guide right action and direct our plan forward. Put simply, how to listen to your gut. At times, this might mean choosing to do the courageous thing that feels scary over avoiding the discomfort of how it feels. Feeling fear isn’t necessarily bad and can mean we are doing something important. We will explore how to break free of that armor that may be protecting yet impeding you. Then how to remember to live an embodied life so that you can dream your ideal life into real.
- Your Roots in the Ground. This is about becoming the one you’ve been waiting for by taking real action towards the life you want to manifest. This involves making self-care a priority so that you have the bandwidth to accomplish what you set out to do. We will learn how to lay out a timeline and create a plan for you to launch your dream. Developing your next steps with clarity, purpose and direction, with the knowledge that failures are opportunities, not proof of your unworthiness.
- The Universe Conspires. This is about following your bliss. But not alone. Learning how to come out of hiding, how to get vulnerable and ask for help, both visible and invisible. And how to surrender and allow divine grace to support your right life. Remember those boundaries? They will come in handy when you will inevitably face criticism and rejection. To do our work in the world we must master resilience against what people might say.
I want you to develop a trust in yourself and faith in the outcome. I believe in you. Now it’s time for you to believe in you.
