What it means to "take your power back".

"I'm no longer a product of my circumstances, I'm a result of my decisions."

When you start healing trauma, rewriting your story, and taking your power back, it's soooo empowering at first. Then, you get to a point when you realize that this extends to all areas of your life, both past and present.

Taking your power back also means taking full responsibility for everything in your life from then on. You don't have your familiar crutch, old story and patterns to fall back on. You stop becoming a product of your past circumstances and transition into being fully responsible for every decision and move you make. This is part of the process.

Every decision leads you somewhere, even the ones that seem "wrong". I've made a ton of questionable decisions recently (like returning prematurely from Asia) but I learned so much I would not have learned any other way. I also connected with people in a way I never would have been able to if I didn't come back.

Once you take your power back in every aspect of your life, What held you back before no longer has power over you. It's exciting, scary, and may feel a bit like you're walking around naked in the woods 😆, but soon you'll realize that you cannot make a wrong turn when you are divinely guided.

How does it feel when you are divinely guided? How does it feel when you take your power back? Let me know in the comments below!
