When I was a kid, I used to dream of walking through the Amazon rainforest.
To feel the trees, the soil, the energy of that place it felt like another world to me but also like home.
And it wasn’t until this year, another another year of standing in the Amazon holding ceremony for others, that it really hit me…
I’m living what my younger self once dreamed of.
For years, I’ve been blessed to go to the jungle to sit with the land, to connect with spirit, to hold space for others but I’d never stopped to realise that I was actually living one of my childhood dreams.
And when it landed, it hit deep.
It reminded me how easily we get caught up in creating the life, that we forget to actually live it.
When I was younger, I had all these goals that felt impossible at the time I wanted to own a car with four exhausts because I thought they were fast 🤣 I wanted a motorbike, I wanted my own house, and to run my own business before I turned 30
And somehow, every single one of those things became real.
But I’d forgotten to stop and feel it.
To recognise that the version of me that once dreamed it all up, would be proud of who I’ve become.
So maybe today, take a moment to pause.
Look at your life through the eyes of your inner child.
See how many dreams have already come true how much you’ve already done, how far you’ve already come.
Sometimes the deepest healing isn’t chasing what’s next it’s remembering that you’ve already become who your younger self was dreaming of.
Much love and respect,
