In a face paced world overflowing with challenges, rapid change, and uncertainty, you might wonder:
Does it really matter what lights me up?
I believe it matters more than ever.
When we stay connected to what brings us joy, meaning, and beauty – even in the smallest ways – we keep our hearts open and our spirits nourished. This inner light becomes the very fuel we need to meet the world with resilience, compassion, and creativity.
I’ve been asking myself daily, “What choices can I make today that light me up?” I strive to cultivate awareness of what is most alive in me, moment by moment.
This is an act of spiritual power.
A quiet form of activism.
A sacred choice to keep the flame of possibility burning through dark and tender times.
Here’s what’s lighting me up right now:
Recently, I pulled a card from my Soul Code Illumination virtual card deck with butterflies and the words: “Emerging Possibilities.” It landed with such resonance. It reminded me that creativity has its seasons—and that the “mushy middle” of the process (when the caterpillar dissolves and everything feels uncertain) is not a failure… it’s a sacred becoming.
After a powerful summer of filming last summer, The Woman’s Rite documentary project entered a mysterious cocoon phase. From the outside, not much seemed to be happening. But inside, profound transformation was at work. This spring, signs of life stirred. Now, as the wheel of the year turns toward Autumn Equinox, The Woman’s Rite is beginning to spread its butterfly wings.
