If I'd believed my inner critic, this book would never exist.
If I'd believed I wasn't good enough, I wouldn't have been able to hear the divine guidance come through.
I would have stayed small, stayed quiet, stayed stuck in the old stories that told me I had nothing to give.
But here's the truth.
Sometimes we don't recognise what we're doing until someone reflects it back to us.
I was catching up with a friend recently, checking in, chatting about life, and I mentioned The Best Life Guide. I told her it was almost ready, that I'd been working on it for so long, that it had been such a massive process (those who publish their own book will know this).
Her response stopped me in my tracks.
She said: "Be, this is amazing. I am so impressed. You should be proud. You are a luminary."
A luminary.
It brought tears to my eyes.
I sat with that word for a moment.
Because for so long, I didn't see myself that way.
For so long, the voice in my head told me: Who are you to share what you know? Who are you to think you have something worth giving? You're not good enough. You're nothing.
Those thoughts came from my past, from old wounds, from stories that were never true.
But they were loud.
And if I'd believed them, The Best Life Guide would never have been born.
I chose not to and refocussed on the truth.
The thing is, this guide didn't come from me alone.
Every step of writing it has been divinely led.
The ideas, the structure, the prompts, the practices... they arrived when I needed them. Sometimes in meditation, sometimes in nature, sometimes in the stillness after a difficult day.
I didn't sit down and plan it all out. I followed the nudges. I listened to the guidance. I trusted that each next step would become clear when I needed it.
But that doesn't mean it was easy.
Life didn't stop so I could write this book.
I've been caring for a poorly family member, sometimes needing to be available 24 hours a day. There were days when I had to grab time in the early hours of the morning, writing while the house was asleep.
There were days when I had to stop mid-sentence to care, and then come back hours later, trying to remember where I was.
There were days when the doubt crept in loud and strong.
Days when I thought: Maybe this isn't meant to happen. Maybe I'm not the one to do this. Maybe I should just stop.
But I didn't stop.
Because on the exhausted days, when I could barely think straight, writing this book was the best thing I could do to follow my purpose.
It kept me grounded. It reminded me why I'm here. It gave me something to hold onto when everything else felt chaotic.
And every time something went wrong, every time a print wasn't quite right, every time I had to go back and adjust something, I kept going.
Because this book needs to be born.
Not just for me.
For the Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) who need it.
For the people who feel overwhelmed, lost, disconnected from themselves.
For the people who are searching for a way to make sense of their lives, to heal, to find balance, to live with intention and clarity and joy.
For those people who are ready to bring their dreams into reality.
I was gifted this healing framework, The Healing Spheres, and it's my responsibility to share it with the world.
To help light people up. ✨
To help them find a way to heal themselves and their lives.
To make this world a little bit better.
This is my legacy.
And even when the old stories came up, even when the voice said "you're not good enough," I learned to sweep those thoughts away, see them for what they are and carry on anyway.
Because they're not true.
They never were.
The truth is, I do have something to give and I'm enough as I am.
The truth is, this guide is meant to exist.
The truth is, following this inner pull, this divine guidance, this purpose... it's the one of the most important things I've ever done.
And now, after all the determination, all the perseverance, all the messy, chaotic, beautiful steps along the way... it's almost here.
There's been another printing delay. After I realised I needed to add copyright information at the start of the guide so it can be published globally, I had to send it back for one more print.
So I'm waiting for the book to return in about a week.
And then, hopefully, it will be ready.
Ready to help so many people live their best lives, and manage the challenges when they come.
Ready to be the companion I needed, and the companion you might need too.
This is the beautiful depth of it.
This is what happens when you follow the guidance, even when you're exhausted, even when life is full, even when the doubt tries to pull you back.
You keep going.
You trust.
You create something that matters.
With my love,
Be
