Embracing Our Weirdness: A Journey Toward Authenticity

Updated: Nov 4, 2024



Most of you probably know by now that I’m a little “weird.” And funny enough, recently, I learned that the word weird comes from the Old English wyrd, meaning “fate” or “destiny”—forces from unseen realms shaping our lives. So, yeah, “weird” feels right at home for me.


I’m coming to appreciate that we are all multi-dimensional beings navigating the waves of life, shaped by our unique experiences and upbringing, while also learning to honor our inner guidance and soul callings along the way. Each of us is special and unique, yet we all crave love, acceptance, peace, and the freedom to simply be ourselves in a world that constantly tries to dictate who we should be and what we should do.


If you’ve ever wondered why my posts aren’t always “high vibrational” and sometimes seem scattered, a bit “out there,” heavy, or even triggering, it’s because I tune into different frequencies and levels of consciousness. My posts reflect where my energy is or who I’m energetically connected to at that moment. Each message resonates differently depending on where you are in your own journey, and that’s completely natural.


I embrace the range of emotions and perspectives that come through, trusting they’ll connect with those ready to receive them. This understanding shapes my work deeply; I recognize that we’re all at different points along our journeys, resonating with insights as we’re ready for them. Personally, I believe we’re meant to heal and break free from the cycles, patterns, trauma, and ways of being that hold us back, enabling us to create a healthier, happier world for everyone—together.


This is why I say that my energy healing sessions meet you where you are and evolve with you, providing the support and guidance you need at each stage of your journey. We are all constantly growing and shifting, gaining new, elevated perspectives as we’re ready to receive them. While not everyone may feel prepared to make that shift just yet, I trust it will happen in time.


My hope is that the messages and insights I share resonate on a level that supports you in embracing your healing, authenticity, and expanded awareness.


Seeing the Gifts in “Being Different”


Owning my 'weirdness' has been a challenging journey, especially since I know I might look or sound 'out there' to some people. On some level, I think I manifested this journey because of my desire to understand why people are the way they are. My dad was very "different," and I used to believe he was "crazy" or had a chemical imbalance. However, I finally realized he just didn't fit into the world as it was set up. I think that's the case for many of us; on a deeper level, we instinctively know this isn't how we're meant to be living our lives. When we’re forced to disconnect from our inner voice to survive, it can lead to internal chaos. Many are not truly happy or fulfilled, let alone thriving.


Finding the Hidden Gifts in Others


This journey has also helped me recognize the hidden gifts in others—especially those who are no longer aligned with the old ways of being and those often labeled as 'different.' Whether struggling with mental health, cognitive differences, social anxiety, or any label society deems outside the 'norm,' we all hold unique insights and abilities. We simply need the space and permission to tap into them. I remember feeling so alone when I first started down this path, sensing something was wrong with me. I was no longer aligned with the life I was living but couldn't yet see where I was being guided. It wasn’t until I surrendered to the journey that it began to unfold in ways I could never have predicted.


By being open about my 'weirdness,' I hope others going through something similar know they’re not alone. My wish is that you can see your experiences in a new light and feel inspired to honor each other’s innate gifts, talents, and abilities.


In the World, But Not of It


Over time, I’ve come to value the concept of being in the world but not of it, viewing life from a higher, soul-led perspective. This can be challenging, especially when the 'real world' continuously tries to fit us into boxes we were never meant to occupy. But if society created those boxes, can’t we collectively decide to break free from them? While traditional ways of living may serve us on some level, they also limit what’s possible for humanity. Imagine what we could accomplish if we challenged the status quo and began to create new ways of being that support not only ourselves and our loved ones but all life on this planet.


A Collective Shift is Happening


I feel we’re on the verge of a major shift in our collective consciousness and humanity’s evolution. The messages I receive often come through in ways that don’t fit neatly into words. Sometimes, I experience a whole 'download' of insights; other times, it’s a mix of symbolism and ideas that need to be expressed. Translating these insights isn’t always easy, especially as I move through different states of consciousness while trying to articulate my thoughts. One moment, I may feel deeply connected to a clear message; the next, I might find myself in a different vibrational state, losing the original intention. This is all part of my journey as I learn to navigate these multi-dimensional waves.


We are stabilizing into higher states of being, integrating different aspects of ourselves and the life we know into our new experience. I know it isn’t any one person’s responsibility to change or save the world—it’s a collective effort, starting with our own personal experience. But sometimes, I feel things, and I know things—maybe not always, but when I do, it’s for a reason. So I want to use this platform to share these insights as they come through, for those who are open and ready to receive the messages that resonate.


Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs


I know I can come across as intense or unwavering when sharing my perspectives, but that’s because I no longer want to accept limitations that don’t serve us. Why do we keep fighting for the reasons something can’t happen, especially when it’s not what we truly want? Why not advocate for why it could happen and seek out solutions to make it so? There’s so much untapped power within us to co-create a life that goes far beyond what we’ve been taught to believe is possible. I don’t just believe in our potential—I know we’re fully capable, and I am certain that it’s possible to heal and build a world aligned with our deepest values and highest intentions. We just need to come together with love and respect for each other’s journeys to make it happen.


My hope is for everyone to live in a way that honors their inner truth and resonates with their soul’s guidance. We’re not meant to be limited by society’s expectations; we’re meant to be free. Deep down, I think many of us sense there’s a better way forward—a heart-centered path that is aligned with our highest good and collective well-being


Using AI as a Tool


So now that I’ve made a short story long, here’s the full disclosure: I recently decided to start using AI as a tool to help me express these messages more clearly, bridging the gap between the insights I receive and what I want to share. I know this was a lengthy lead-in, but I felt called to be transparent with you. This isn’t about pushing change onto anyone—ultimately, that’s a personal choice we each make when we’re ready. From my experience, if we resist the moves we feel called to make, the universe (or even our own bodies) often finds unique ways to nudge us out of stagnation! My goal is simply to offer new perspectives for those who feel aligned with them.


While I love working one-on-one and using hands-on approaches in my healing modalities, I also genuinely appreciate how technology has evolved to save us time and make our lives easier. Imagine if washers and dryers didn’t exist—or any of the other inventions that simplify our daily routines! Similarly, I’ve come to see AI as a helpful assistant, one that clarifies these messages and frees up my time to focus on what truly matters: being present, building meaningful connections, and supporting growth with those around me.


After what feels like years of “digging in the mud” for deeper understanding, I’m ready to come up for air and live even more aligned with my heart and soul’s true calling.


An Invitation to Rise Together


If you’re ready, I invite you to join me on this journey. We’re on the cusp of a collective awakening and a shift in consciousness. If you’re here for the ride, buckle up—it’s about to get weird. But ‘weird’ doesn’t have to be a negative thing; it’s an invitation to explore, expand, and rise. Embracing our weirdness, our realness, and our authenticity is a vital part of this journey. Let’s shake things up, wake up, heal, and grow together as we face our personal and collective shadows, creating lives that truly fulfill us on all levels.


Do you feel the shift in the collective awakening? What steps are you taking to align with your heart and soul’s true calling?
