Strangely Sane: Journey of a Goddess

Hi Goddess!

In this episode, we will be discussing the aftermath of choosing to live your truth. You always hear people say, "You can't bring everyone with you" and "It's lonely at the top." Those sayings tend to be the truth. Choosing to live in your truth will be the bravest thing you ever do, while also being lonely. It comes with unfortunate truths, losses, and ego deaths. And it sounds a little sucky, but from my experience totally worth it. Listen to this episode when you need a little encouragement to keep going when no one around you seems to be giving it. I have your back!

We've made it to our 20th episode!!!!

Being a goddess means that you have the power to manifest the life you want. The most difficult part of manifesting is keeping the manifestation once you get it. A goddess knows that she is worthy and deserving of everything she wants.

In this episode, we will discuss the different ways I manifest. I hope you can take something from this episode. Please rate 5 stars and follow. I can't wait to talk to y'all again!

This episode is a little different. There's no video and no Goddess in the spotlight. There comes a time when we realize we are goddesses, and we have a journey to traverse. This episode is a look on how society is today. I have a few complaints, and this conversation couldn't be held in my chest any longer.

For any change to happen, we have to first acknowledge the issue. In this episode, we discuss society, jobs, and sales. I can't wait to hear from you!

We need to take breaks. Life and society will make us think that we need to keep going. We're tricked into thinking that if we're doing nothing, then we are failing. The truth is that sometimes, nothing is the task. Sometimes it takes us doing absolutely nothing at all to figure out the next step. Yuki Onna shows us the importance of freezing time. Being the goddess of winter, she is adept at frozen things. So, freeze time, if only for a moment. Your problem will either be there ready for fresh eyes, or it will be solved.

Eostre teaches us that after winter must come spring. Spring brings warmth, excitement, and newness. What have you had to shed to prepare for this new version of you?

This is not a time to fret over who you used to be and the things you needed to do in the past. Now is the time to embrace this new version of you, and to forgive and thank the older versions of you.

Below is the recipe for honey cake: Honey Cake - Preppy Kitchen

• 1 cup all-purpose flour (120g)
• ▢1 teaspoon baking powder
• ▢½ teaspoon salt
• ▢¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
• ▢¼ teaspoon baking soda
• ▢1 cup unsalted butter softened (227g)
• ▢½ cup packed light brown sugar (110g)
• ▢⅓ cup honey plus more for garnish (80mL)
• ▢4 large eggs at room temperature
• ▢1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ▢¼ cup sliced almonds optional (30g)

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan with baking spray. Line the bottom with parchment paper and lightly grease the parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon if using, and baking soda.
• In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, sugar, and honey on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. With the mixer on low, add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition and stopping to scrape down the bowl as needed. Beat in the vanilla until just combined.
• With the mixer on low, gradually add in the flour mixture, beating just until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it into an even layer.
• Bake for 40 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. If desired, you can sprinkle the top with almonds after 20 minutes of baking. Loosely cover the cake with foil at any time if the top or almonds start to get too brown. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Carefully remove the cake from the pan, discard the parchment paper, and place it on a serving plate (almond side up). Serve warm drizzled with additional honey.

Ma'at teaches us that honesty is integral to our journey. If we ever intend to live a life that is most aligned with our values, then we have to reflect on what is actually important to us. You can follow your algorithm or you can follow your heart and mind. Be brave enough to be yourself in a world where everyone is trying to be like someone else.

I have had both the honor and pleasure of going through a journey of healing. And trust me, it wasn't always the simplest decision. I had to learn how to trust the journey that I've been asked to take. In walking this path, I have been faced with the decision to heal or to avoid. Gula aids us on our mission of healing, and she helps us inspire others to take this path. Will you avoid the trigger, or will you heal it? How will that decision help you on your path?

Starting something new is intimidating. You're learning something new, you look around to get inspired, and realize that you actually kind of suck at it. You now have to face reality. You're bad at something. You've failed to be the very best out there. Saraswati teaches us the importance of putting in time and effort. You don't start a master. You work at it, fail, learn a new tip, and fail again. Eventually, you find your groove, and you find yourself getting better and better. Don't compare your first day to someone else's 7000th day. That's not fair to you or them. One day, someone will look to you for tips and tricks, and you'll have them to give because you were willing to fail to succeed.

What are you willing to do to live the life of your dreams? Would you be willing to sacrifice your comfort? Your relationships? Your job?

Shakti is calling you to transform your life. Transforming is scary and intimidating, but in the long run, it's totally worth it. You have to be courageous to see it through all the way. You are capable. In this episode, we discuss transforming, both the highs and the lows. I hope you are brave enough.

Will you choose yourself? Will you choose your dream life?
