Creating a new business is always an evolutionary process. It’s about finding your niche, working with your strengths and finding what works for you.

Since I qualified as a Master Intuitive Psychology Coach last May, it’s definitely been a massive learning curve and journey but I feel like I am really finding my way with where I want to be and what is the best fit for me.

I thought I would share a little update with you on where I feel I am really heading with this next evolution of Step out of the Shadows as I know I have been quite quiet in here.

Really looking forward to sharing more and carving out my niche with what I offer.

Yesterday I turned 41…

It’s a bit of a weird one to be honest. 40 was a big year and a big celebration and I actually felt really good about it.

Turning 41 doesn’t necessarily bother me as such. It is just a number. But there has been something about turning 41 that has felt quite tough.

Maybe it is the closing of one chapter that felt so incredible and so transformative and the opening of a new chapter which feels quite unknown..

Maybe it is the pressure of having such a great year last year, to replicate it or go bigger this year.

I’ve not quite put my finger on it.

But interestingly… someone gave me a really great perspective the other day.

41 is a prime number, meaning it is only divisible by itself and 1. That’s pretty empowering for a number.

So… this is the energy I want to carry into my chapter 41. I am strong. I am solid. And actually, the only thing that can divide me, is me…. And I am not going to let that happen.

I wasn’t feeling this yesterday. But I needed that day to feel all the things I needed to feel. And that’s ok.

Today… I am empowered.

So… This is 41 🩷

Nervous system regulation is incredibly important but there are many ways of achieving it.

Finding what works for you is the most important thing but I hope this little video helps with a suggestion that you may not have realised before…

Nervous system regulation is great!

But if you are just using it to calm down, to push through and to keep avoiding what your body is really telling you, it’s not actually going to work!

You don’t need more coping strategies.

You need to listen to the truth.

Tolerating a life that wasn’t meant for you is just surviving.

Finding a life that is truly aligned to you allows you to breathe.

Whilst regulating yourself nervous system, take a moment to listen. To truly listen to what your body and your intuition is telling you.

This is where your answers lie.

Learning to live authentically is such a game changer.

I remember listening to a podcast recently all about the regrets of people who are on their death bed, and the biggest regret that people had was living for other people, not for themselves.

The thing is… no one else will really ever remember, or care about what you do. You are the one who has to live with your choices.

So when you make choices and live life through others, this will only ever lead to disappointment. Because people come and go. But you are the one consistent in your own life.

You are important and the choices you make should be for you.

This isn’t about being selfish. You can still be kind and considerate of others, whilst still living life authentically.

So every day, ask yourself the question… how can I choose Me today?

It will feel awkward at first. It will feel uncomfortable and your brain will shout at you that it’s selfish.

Remember that your brain is just trying to keep you safe by sticking with the familiar. So if the default has always been to put others first and make decisions based on others then this is what your brain will keep telling you to do.

But your brain doesn’t care about your happiness.

It cares about your survival.

So sometimes we have to choose to not listen to the stories that our brains try to tell us.

Sometimes we really have to listen to our heart 💖

Because our heart knows the truth…

Feeling really proud of myself today!

Today myself and my work colleague ran a workshop in collaboration with in East Grinstead on Ageing and Wellbeing.

I designed and created the workbook for the attendees so they have a really helpful resource to refer back to, which includes information, local support and coping strategies for anxiety and low mood.

There were about 20 attendees to the workshop today and I think it went really well.

This isn’t about coaching but I am really proud of the work I do for The Emotional Wellbeing Service in my day job and so I felt it deserved a shout out on here! 💕

If something within you feels calm, grounded and like it is your truth…. take notice.

This is your inner wisdom.

This is a calling to what is unmistakably yours.
Your truth.

Our minds will always shout at us, but our inner wisdom, our intuition is always quiet and calm.

It is a knowing without knowing.

It is feeling that you cannot explain. You cannot logic or reason or justify. It is just a quiet knowing.

Listen to it.

Trust in it.

This is where your truth lives 💖

We are all a beautiful cacophony of selves…

We aren’t just one version, we are many versions.

Some people may just see certain parts of our selves. Other people may see other parts and often there are parts that we only allow ourselves to see.

All of these versions of ourselves are what make us who we are. None are more valid than the others.

Finding acceptance of all of our selves and all of our parts is a journey of healing and the path to being truly authentic.

If you would like support on this journey, I will hold your hand and help you to navigate any bumps along the way. It may feel hard and it will bring up a lot but I promise that the lightness you will feel will be worth it.

A really beautiful morning meeting some wonderful ladies at the woodland wellbeing event today.

Such a lovely way of connecting with other mums with their own business, who understand what it is like building a business and mumming! Lots of really beautifully holistic approaches being used in their businesses and I had some really lovely conversations.

I was grateful to be given the opportunity to share some of my work so I created a workshop on ‘release fear and take aligned action’ which was all about connecting with your vision of your business and how we can often be in our head and looking for external validation when it comes to our business. So I invited the women attending to connect with their intuition and to let go of something holding them back in their business. We then had a ritual burning of these things to release them!

I love sharing this work and helping women to connect with their authenticity and I always love connecting with other creative and inspiring women!

This has been one of the biggest changes for me since I started this journey of connecting with my authenticity and finding a kind of acceptance I have never experienced before.

For such a long time I have felt quite numb. I have struggled to connect with my feelings and struggled to even work out what I am feeling. I have pushed down my feelings for such a long time and although I recognised this was happening, I didn’t really know how to change this.

I realised that there were actually a lot of feelings that I was choosing to avoid but these choices had become such a habit, that they had become completely automatic. I didn’t even realise I was choosing to avoid these feelings. I just recognised that I felt numb.

I am not saying it is easy and I am still very much on this journey but I am slowly but surely allowing myself to question how I am feeling and allow myself to really feel this. I am actively choosing to be conscious about my feelings, rather than unconsciously avoid them.

Of course this doesn’t always happen but the feelings of numbness are definitely a lot less than they used to be. The feelings can be overwhelming at times, but I also know that the energy of the emotion is being moved and processed rather than getting stuck.

Avoiding feelings seems like such a great way of ‘coping’ but I recognise now the damage that this does and how it keeps us stuck.

Growth really is sitting in the feelings we usually avoid 💖

Do you allow your feelings or do you often avoid and feel numb?

So many of us live our lives in the shadows.

We hide parts of ourselves that don’t feel acceptable. We mould ourselves to be what others want, rather than being our full authentic self.

We show the world what feels safe and push down all of the other parts.

But we were never meant to be what others want or need. We were always meant to be exactly who we are. This is where our magic lies. This is where our brilliance lives. This is where our light is.

I can guide you to reconnect with your light and to find the acceptance and confidence to be the person you were always meant to be.

We are all made of shadow and light. This is what makes us human and you can’t have one without the other. But you can choose to embrace the shadows and step into your light.

Come and let’s find your light 🔥

Love,

Natalie
