Ep #12: My Biggest Lessons & Healing in 2023 {Solo Episode}

In this episode I reflect on my biggest lessons from 2023, which ultimately led to healing some of my deepest wounds. Sometimes, life needs to get gnarly in order for us to finally address our fears.

Hello loves!! Welcome to 2024! I am so happy to be in this new year–it feels abundant, expansive and full of adventure. But today, I want to let you in on a little secret:

I worked my butt off for it!!

2023 was a year with so many painful patterns, overdue clearings & deep inner work…it honestly kind of rocked me!

On the outside it looked like nothing but expansion: new Tea house, new Tea company, new boyfriend…

But on the inside, bringing all of these dreams & desires back into my life brought up a lot of fear & distrust. In order to really claim what I wanted, I needed to learn new ways of being that reflect the balanced, grounded & light-filled life I’ve created since the last time I was in any of these dynamics.

You may or may not remember, but I’ve kept a pretty low profile since my life collapsed almost six years ago. The things that hurt me – work, love, community – were seriously put on the back burner as I got back on my feet.

But here’s the thing…
Avoidance isn’t healing.
”Not being ready to go there” isn’t healing.
Being OK without these things…also not healing.

When I was finally courageous enough to invite these levels of intimacy back into my life, I feel like I picked up right where I left off in terms of my healing journey…and while I was humbled by life, I found that I was also supported by all that I feared.

And because of that, I finally got out of the way and let myself H E A L.

In today’s episode I share vulnerably about this process in three areas of my life–reopening my Tea House, stepping back into relationship & launching de la Tierra Teas.

I’m excited to hear how this resonates with you. Feel free to leave a comment below.
