Untapped strength
Let’s go ahead and get straight into a story. Back in my Christian days I got a lot of people approaching me to prophecy words over me. They varied wildly from being a missionary in Africa to mentions of me being a strong person in the eyes of god. Looking back on this, I always take it with a pinch of salt as I think of who I was at that time.
I was always a tall person with a big heart. I’ve always cared about people, even when they betray me. My heart has always been on my sleeve and my family always disliked this, telling me to ‘toughen up’ all the time. What I didn’t know is beyond my care, there was strength but not as the world sees it.
I don’t always see as my story always as this amazing success, everyone has things to overcome and barriers to break. Then again, I think of all the mental illness, homelessness, a failed marriage, failed relationships and my specific journey of being trans femme non-binary…my strength and fortitude might be more than I can imagine for myself. Hence why I became a self awareness coach in the first to show others not just that, but to tap into their own source of strength within.
Besides, every once in a while you need to speak louder, firmer and more explicitly to be heard. Anger honed into laser focus is far more powerful than the scatter and spray of machine gun rage any day. Let that strength find a home outside of its cage so you can adept and knowledgable, rather than unknown and difficult.
