The Intuition Led Life:

It might not look at all how you expected (but feels better than you ever dreamed of)

The thing that has hit me repeatedly throughout this journey of discovery and healing is that life looks nothing like I expected. I thought I was going to be lounging on beaches all over the world, uploading videos as I sipped on a fresh coconut. I am living in my home town, in a flat that doesn’t look at all like my Pinterest board but has offered me all the comfort, security and space to launch this work. I imagined I would be in a blissful marriage with 2.4 kids and a couple of dogs by the time I was 34, only to find myself single and no pet to my name, but finally at peace with myself and feeling deserving of true love.

I had many ideas of what life should and would look like at this stage of my life- it was far more glossy, ticking all the boxes a 34 year old woman should have ticked at this stage of their life. But as I have let go of each idea of what life ‘should’ look like I allowed a little more space for what life ‘could’ look like it. And by learning to trust my intuition at each step I am growing into a life that fills my heart, and provides me with so much contentment, and finally allows me to follow my purpose, rather than chasing all the shiny things I focused my life on before. Does this mean I don’t know what life has in-store for me? Absolutely. But for the first time in my life, I really couldn’t care less, this life is too good to worry about what it isn’t.

What I mean to say is, don’t get so distracted in creating a life that looks good to others, that you miss out on a life the feels good to you.
