Finding your Voice. What does that mean? For me, it means that I mean what I be, do, say and think and I be, do, say and think what I mean. It took me a lot of false starts for me to be me. And here I AM!!

Disconnected from our innate intelligence we are dumb. This dumb shows up as living life on autopilot doing, saying and being the things that we have been trained to do, be and say. This is called conditioning and it is the false intelligence.

What makes us all so dumb is trying to fit into the box that is perfection. What I mean by “dumb” is our ability to express, the unique language our lives speak. Perfection literally hijacks our authentic expression. Ellen talks about this as well as the importance of “imperfect” expression.

Perfection does not like the messy stuff. Perfection wants to lock the messy down and out. Why? The messy does not cooperate with perfection’s coiffed ways. Listen as Ellen shares more about this topic and the importance of allowing the messy.

Perfection about anything or anyone is an idea about how/what that something or someone should be/do. This blocks out our true Self. Perfection keeps us from our emotional integrity, feeling what we truly feel. It also keeps us from being in relationship with ourselves, knowing our likes and dislikes. This, deeply, is the root of our loneliness, our cultural malaise. We can break the patterning of Perfectionistic ideas by bravely meeting ourselves, our feelings, in the moment. No matter what they are. This allowing EXPANDs us into greater freedom and aliveness.

We are not here to Live how other people think we should. But this is what happens when we live a life of perpetually feeling shame or bad for who we are or guilty for choosing our truth over training. Avoiding meeting our shame and guilt head-on keeps us from being real. It keeps us from saying the things we want to say, doing what we want to do and being who we are - the truth of our expression.

Guilt, like shame, is a distortion of our Truth. And, like shame, it can assist us in getting clear about what’s TRUE. When we can meet Guilt head-on, we get clarity about our RESPONSIBILITY- what’s really TRUE in our HEART.

Shame, the belief that one is bad, runs deeply and unannounced in the human psyche. Shame is a distorted expression of who we really are, which is Love. Ellen shares about her journey with shame as well as how it shows up in our lives in big and small ways. And how in meeting our pain, we can dissolve our shame. And be the light that we are. SHINE. SHINE. SHINE.

Our Soul is the Truth of Who we ARE. It is pure Love & Light. What does the Soul want? To be KNOWN. Every human has the potential to embody their Soul. This enactment is akin to HEALING and becoming WHOLE. What stops us? LISTEN.
