Thoughts - Receivership

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about Receivership.

Welcome to Season 2 of What Would Love Do.

I thought I'd start the season off with this quick audio I recorded while waiting in the car while Brooklyn was napping :)

Ep 32 - You are Love and Light

Ep 32 - You are Love and Light

Why choose to live from Love over Fear?

"Between stimulus and response - there is space.

In that space is our power.

To choose our response.

In our response, lies our growth and our freedom."

Viktor Frankl

When we choose Love, we choose growth, we choose freedom, and we choose to honour the light that's within us. 

If we truly believe we are spiritual beings, having a human experience - we wouldn't choose Fear. Love is the access to connect to our spirit - and allow spirit to guide us.

Our true-self is joy. Our true-self is light. When we live from this place - how can life not be magnificent?!

It doesn't mean that there won't be challenges or pain - it just means that we choose to see that life is working for us. Each challenge and pain is an opportunity to deepen our understanding of the powerful energy of Love.

Ep 31 - Don't let your heart harden

Ep 31 - Don't let your heart harden

When we experience suffering - we have a choice.

To expand, or contract. 

When we meet Fear, with Fear - the Fear expands.

When we meet Fear, with Love, the Fear dissolves.

Truth is this - people who are hurting, hurt other people. And yes, people can do bad things, and mean things - and we have a choice on how to see it.

Blame, judgement, condemnation keeps us trapped. That's fear meeting fear. What if we choose compassion? Empathy?... What if we could see this circumstance as a reminder to take charge of our mind and take responsibility for the wounds that live within us?

Fear is seeking Love.

Let go of blame. There is no liberation to be found. Freedom is not found in Fear… Only Love Liberates.

Ep 30 - Questions

Ep 30 - Questions

 The quality of your life is based on the quality of your questions.

We don't know what we don't know. There are beliefs that live within the shadows of our minds - these beliefs create an invisible cage in which we live in. They can disrupt our relationships, they can hijack our experience of life, and they hold us back from being the master of our fate, and the captain of our soul.

How do we shine a light on these beliefs? How can we bring these beliefs out from the dark shadows? The key is asking powerful questions in the moments that we are tested.

Ep 29 - Making mistakes

Ep 29 - Making mistakes

Our capacity to be accepting, forgiving, and learn from our mistakes impacts our courage - our courage to love, our courage to take risks, our courage to expand, our courage to live authentically.
.
Sometimes we make choices that are less than ideal. We falter. We dig a deep hole for ourselves... we hurt others. Yes, these situations suck. However, these situations are a reflection of the choices we have made in a moment in time - and they do not define our character. The failures, the mistakes do not define us.
.
Yes, you may have to have some tough conversations to ask for forgiveness.. and yes the people you hurt may not forgive you until they're ready - and it starts with you forgiving yourself. It starts with you letting go of your own condemnation and judgement. .
When we know better, we can do better. And to know better means that we will make mistakes along the way!
.
The fear of making mistakes is debilitating. It kills us slowly. It holds is back. It seduces us into second guessing ourselves and not being ourselves up. It suppresses our deepest desires for fear of disappointment. .
If you suffer from the habit of indecision, wanting to control everything, perfectionism, a lack of clarity - The fear of making mistakes is running the show.

Ep 28 - Loving conditionally

Ep 28 - Loving conditionally

When we are at our worst - that is when we need to feel loved the most. If our partner or child is at their worst - it is in these moments that they need to feel loved the most.

Do we show up with love or is our love conditional?

Ep 25 - The gratitude to love

Ep 25 - The gratitude to love

There is always something to be grateful for. Gratitude is this amazing energy and force that can transform the experience of lack and not enough to abundance and expansion. When we bring gratitude to loving another, we show-up in our relationships with courage, generosity and unconditional love.

Ep 23 - The disease of perfectionism

Ep 23 - The disease of perfectionism

Perfectionism is borne from Fear. The fear of not being enough, the fear of being unworthy, the fear of being unlovable.

Ep 22 - Motherhood as healing

Ep 22 - Motherhood as healing

When we know better, we do better. Parenting is transformational and is a healing process. Before we become parents, have we done the deep thinking into what needs forgiveness and acceptance in our past?

Ep 21 - Why love?

What would life look like if we could stop surrendering to fear or anxiety and start surrendering more to love or trust? - How would we show-up? What would our relationship to our life feel like?

Why Love? Why should we invest our time and energy into understanding this energy called Love?

Ep 20 - Regret - A Function of Empathy

Ep 20 - Regret - A Function of Empathy

I use to think "Regret" was a dirty word. A word when spoken meant you were holding onto the past and you couldn't move on.

In listening to an interview with Brene Brown on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday, my relationship to the word "Regret" transformed. If we value a growth mindset, we have to be willing to let go of beliefs that no longer served us. We have to be willing to unlearn what we have learnt.

With Brene Brown's definition of Regret, I unlearnt my relationship to Regret. Regret can now be seen as a teacher. It shows us when we have acted being guided by Fear.

Ep 19 - The Fear of Disappointment

Ep 19 - The Fear of Disappointment

The fear of disappointment can be the thing that hinders us from showing up, from giving everything everything... and the thing that robs us of having a remarkable and magical rendezvous with life.

We can choose to think that life is working for us, or life is working against us. We fear the experience of disappointment. We fear the experience of not knowing how to deal with heartbreak or being able to expand and keep our heart open when something doesn't work out the way we want it to be... however these fears haven't even been realised and these outcomes are just thoughts - and yet, we buy into these thoughts as though they are reality. We rob ourselves of joy and of experiencing the magic of life.

Ep 18 - The Fish in a Fish Bowl

What is the reality of a fish that lives in a fish bowl? We are each our own fish in our own fish bowl - what does it take to be an observer of our life?

Ep 17 - What if there was no plan B?

Ep 17 - What if there was no plan B?

What if there was no Plan B? When we choose to live from a space of Love, we are present. We show up fully engaged. Our mind isn't thinking "if this doesn't work, we have a fall back plan". When we live from a place of Plan B, Plan C.. we are living from a place of fear. We are fearful of failure and the achievement of an outcome - so we create conditions to minimise our experience of disappointment and anguish. However, what if there is no Plan B? What would life be like if we lived with no back-up plan - and we show up with faith, love, and focus?... and trust that the outcome is perfect for our evolution and growth?

Ep 16 - How did we develop our model of Love?

Ep 16 - How did we develop our model of Love?

Bringing awareness to how we created our model of Love is the opportunity of transformation. We created a model on what Love is, what Love is, and how to Love based on our observations and our experiences as a child. When we can bring awareness to this, we have a choice to change the narrative and meaning of Love.

Ep 15 - What I learnt from my divorce

Ep 15 - What I learnt from my divorce

Being divorced was a blessing - it was my wake-up call to bring awareness to my unconscious beliefs and take responsibility for how I show-up in relationships. In this episode, I share 9 things I learnt from my divorce and how the transformation of my thinking contributes to crafting a magical and loving relationship.

Ep 14 - Who do I get to become?

Ep 14 - Who do I get to become?

Throw away the checklist. It is never about the other person, who they are, what they have, and who they are for us. What if the real work is about looking at ourselves? What if the real work in being able to craft a magical relationship is centred around understanding and being grateful on who we get to become, who we get to show up as, and being humbled by the joy of loving another?

Ep 13 - Judgement

Ep 13 - Judgement

Judgement says more about us than the other person. We judge when we are in fear. We also judge what we don't understand - and we take things personally, when we forget our wholeness. In understanding judgement, we can let go of the grip judgement creates in causing separation.

Episode 8 - Closure

Episode 8 - Closure

This episode shares the 4 stages of closure.

1) Understanding the role we played or who we were being
2) Creating empathy
3) Acceptance for what has happened
4) Forgiveness

When a relationship ends, we are seeking "closure" and thinking it needs to come from the other human being, we want an explanation or a reasoning for why things happened - however we are still the judge and jury when it comes to those explanations - and it isn't the explanations that will give us freedom.

This episode on Closure gives a perspective that closure is in our own hands.. and it is possible to heal and create closure for ourselves.

Episode 6 - Why vulnerability?

Episode 6 - Why vulnerability?

Brene Brown, the author of Daring Greatly states that vulnerability is pivotal to connection, a sense of belonging, and being able to live wholeheartedly.

In this episode, I explore "Why vulnerability?" - and explore an empowering context of vulnerability and what it makes available.

In being able to allow ourselves to meet the emotions and feelings we run away from, by allowing ourselves to be vulnerable, we are no longer bounded and trapped by these emotions and feelings - and this is needed if we want to feel seen, heard, and know that we matter.

The experience of connection and belonging, is directly correlated to our capacity to be vulnerable.

To allow another to really see us, know us, and love us - we need to confront the emotions and feelings that we are afraid off.

Episode 5 - How to expand love

Episode 5 - How to expand love

This episode has been inspired by a listener and friend.

D says; “There are a few things around love I’d love explored. One is, how do you keep the love going when you’ve been together a long time… like 20 years!… and the is how do you explore love as you both get older and your values might shift”

In this episode we explore how we can expand love during these times in a relationship; and how to choose to see it through the eyes of love.
