Recently, I was invited as a speaker for the International Spiritual Women Scientist Summit.
A couple of days after the talk, I received a message from one of the participants. She said,
Your session was so powerful. It is because of your voice, not just your teachings, that I kept the video on all along.
This came as a bit of a surprise to me, because historically, my voice has always been judged. People have found me aggressive, arrogant, blunt. They have shamed me for my voice, isolated, rejected and misunderstood me.
So I had developed an imprint that I did not like to hear my own voice. But, that imprint has been slowly changing. And this feedback is so heart-warming that it has made my heart really, really full.
This also makes me realize that all the self work that I have been doing is really paying off.
Many of you may think I must have worked on moderating my tone or taming down my expression in order to be accepted and not judged. But that has not been the case.
Do you know what my real work was and has been?
It was not about changing who I am, but it was about accepting fully who and the way I am.
It was about my connection to nature and allowing it to continue to heal me so that I can be my own true nature. I can be in full acceptance of who I am.
Even today, I find myself judging my own rawness and authenticity. But as time goes by, I keep coming back to my own wisdom that if we have to shine in the glory of our soul, we have to unabashedly continue to be who we are.
And that, in my opinion, is the journey of self love.
If there is one thing that my journey walking the shamanic path has taught me, it is self acceptance.
Shamanism as a way of life teaches us simple tools and ways to help us understand, accept and embody who we are. Most importantly, it teaches us that in this journey, you are not alone. There are a lot of helpers, guides and allies, besides Mother Nature, to help you come into your full glory and splendour.
Are you ready to be unpopular?
Are you ready to shine in the true glory of your own soul?
If yes, then my medicine or my wisdom and teachings are for you.
We begin with a 1-month Foundations of Shamanism on 21st June 2025. To read more about the mentorship, click this link. Or WhatsApp me on 9979901933 to register.
