I welcome anything that “triggers” me.
If you’re unfamiliar with the term, what it means a thing that “activates” an emotional response.
The “activation” could be of excitement, passion or joy, etc. and it can also be of anger, frustration, and irritation, etc.
The thing that comes before the emotion is the trigger.
A few years ago I found myself at a personal development event where I got triggered.
I noticed myself becoming concerned with how others were receiving me.
I had woken up inspired to share something I’d written inside of our private Facebook Group, but instead of sharing my writing, I felt the pause of, “I don’t know… Maybe it’s too much.”
So I didn’t.
About an hour later I told myself, “You know what? This is valuable, I am proud of it, my heart says GO and I trust that.”
I posted it.
Mid-day, my coach made a comment that flipped my “Too much” trigger so I went to the group and took down the post.
I felt defeated followed by deep irritation.
As the day went on, things loosened up for me and slowly I began to return to myself.
The truth is, I want to be loved and early on in life, I learned that I was “a lot to love”.
My personality is big
My energy is big
My truth is big
I feel hard
I love hard
I look loud
I talk loud
I laugh loud
I am a lot
Maybe, “Too much”
Here’s what I know…
YOU are meant to shine as unfiltered light.
Being afraid to shine AS YOU ARE is you operating in opposition of your true nature.
Your soul’s deepest craving is for you to shine authentically + unapologetically.
THAT is where you’ll meet your power.
Know this…
> The world wants us to forget
> They want us to be afraid
> They are quite pleased with our “Too much” stories
> They prefer we shrink, suppress + squash
> They feel most powerful inside our disempowerment
Be radically disruptive and unleash your raw, unfiltered, divine powerful self into the world
They too have forgotten who we are
But like us, they will remember
“Too much” & “Not enough” are the same story
