> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #38: busyness (part 5 of 5)

With wisdom comes the reality of time — days moving faster than before, staying obedient to the purpose this life has provided… even if it is hard for others to understand. But that’s the beauty of this journey; it’s divine and unique, created for you to stand in your awe. And there is no one else who can learn the lessons you were destined to learn.

While I’ve spent so much energy trying to explain or justify or reflect on why my journey may not make sense, I finally feel like it’s not for anyone else to understand. I have to find ways to navigate without an over explanation or rationalization of why I’m doing or adding or pivoting or gently declining… because I’m not generating more time; rather, quite the opposite. But it’s my perspective that has to adjust — one that values the time because of the intentionality in this work, this journey, this life.

So while these thoughts on busyness are scattered, they are raw and unapologetic… because time is of the essence.

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #37: busyness (part 4 of 5)

Expectations:
Pieced together by the narrative of what they want or need. Fragmented in how I understand, solve, challenge, reflect.
Influencing the way I complete, pivot, navigate, achieve.
To feel misunderstood, misaligned, misled.
Because maybe the internal doesn’t match the external.
Breathe.
Quiet the mind.
Trust in Self.
Pause.
Let go.
Create.
Stay curious.
Because maybe expectations cause necessary disruption.

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #36: busyness (part 3 of 5)

Over the past three years, I’ve had humans (more than I’d like to admit) comment or have an opinion about the busyness of my life. Almost always, I believe they feel they are telling me from a place of love, one of great concern and true compassion. But I also believe duality can exist in this space, turning the concern into need — one where I create disappointment or misalignment in their expectations of me. And not out of malice or greed, but simply, “I needed you, and you were too busy.”

Unfortunately, these conversations or comments have built some residual trauma, one where it feels easier to isolate to recharge, assuring myself that I don’t need to explain my rationale but stuck on justifying my contributions in this life. And in my most exhausted moments, it leads to an inaccurate assessment of time and sounds something like, “If I can just make it to the end of the month” or “Do these three more tasks and then take a break.”

But that end of the month never comes or the tasks pile up. So I’m left with this “back to the drawing board” scenario, one that feels riddled with insanity because it always feels the same. Yet, powerfully enough, I know there is a lesson, one that encourages deep exhales and intentional connection, allowing me to feel so many dimensions of the human experience.

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #35: busyness (part 2 of 5)

I started reading this book a couple of days ago; it came recommended by one of my longest friends. During our conversation, she made this profound statement, “Rachael, at our age, I would have never imagined this many people chasing rest.” I’ve repeated that epiphany at least 20 times since our conversation, always feeling my soul tired in different ways, wondering how to slow down, untangle, and detach from the very things I always thought I wanted.

Eugene Peterson mentions “unforced rhythms of grace” and since reading that this morning, I can’t stop thinking about how much pressure being busy carries — the expectations, the responsibility, the time management. Maybe a lot of it is internal, but the internal often is reinforced by the external.

So what does life look like slow, steady, intentional? How many people do we disappoint by shifting our priorities, taking up space, and believing this life doesn’t have to always be on overdrive or overcommitment? Will it take others to seek to understand and deeply empathize, or will the journey remain lonely but freeing?

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #34: busyness (part 1 of 5)

On New Year’s Eve, I chose a “word of the year” — one that would, in theory, create a gentle reminder for the heavy, routine, or overloaded moments. Like a quick reset or deep reflection to avoid the patterns that easily consume my life, swearing I’ll find a different method of movement, challenging my concept of time, and redirecting repetitive glimpses of burnout.

Designed by Morgan Harper Nichols, the meaning behind this “word of the year” is this:

“Rhythm: even though at times you have wrested with what is and isn’t yours to carry, what to let go of and what to hold on to, where to fly ahead and where to slow down, what remains true through it all, you’re learning to create rhythms. These aren’t just repetitive motions but steady pulses you’re learning to notice and navigate, day by day.”

And lately, I’ve been overwhelmingly grappling with the concept of busyness. It’s come up so repetitively that this lesson that I share has multiple parts, each directing my attention in different ways, forcing me to lean into the uncomfortable space of vulnerability and self-reflection.

But here is where I’m finding graceful rhythms…

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #33: acceptance

This year has been heavy. But with all heaviness, there comes a time for reevaluation, realignment, and repurpose. Shifting the pieces of our lives that feel more urgent, allowing them to consume our energy. Dissecting the ways we feel more regulated, finding deep exhales in the reasons and seasons of joy.

And as I struggle to stay in this space of curiosity, I read a timely reminder to let go of the overabundance of emails, the misinterpretation of text messages, the external and internal expectations, the conversations that made me question my journey. The message from Danielle LaPorte said, “Acceptance is one of the surest ways to regulate your nervous system. I’m accepting the situation. I’m not perceiving it as an attack, so I don’t need to defend. So my amygdala is not sending all this fear to my survival systems.”

So today, I’m choosing acceptance + curiosity — allowing this season to be one filled with more awe, more gratitude, and more joy. Because I create my own reality… one grounded in being human and doing good, simultaneously in chaotic wonder. And my hope is that you, too, will find acceptance to anchor you through the heaviness.

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #32: paradox

It’s wild to think about the number of signs and gentle nudges, the deep thoughts and meaningful readings, the situational awareness and the emotional intelligence that this world brings; yet, it feels like existing in this perplexing paradox — one filled with moments of sadness and hope, of misconceptions and comprehension, of fear and love.

And through the negativity of the news and the justification of judgement, the half truths and the self-preservation, it makes sense why this space feels heavy… as if the goal is to create so much anxiety that we have no other option but to shut down, shut off, shut out. We have less grace for humanness and more insecurity, because we’ve had an overreactive nervous system, unsure about the future while the divide continues to syphon our compassion.

But maybe this is where we solidify our endless supply of hope, believing the storm ends, infusing kindness back into humanity, instinctively seeking joy rather than judgment, strengthening the muscles in our every day to make the world a little better because we stopped long enough to listen to the devastation this world causes while generating assurance for one to continue forward.

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #31: duality

I’ve been living in this space of procrastination, of holding my breath for the next decision out of my control, of navigating this emotional turbulence of life, of digging deep to find grace for humans who rapidly justify without context. And I’ve thought too many times about the depth of decisions, the critical need for hope, and the desire for the calm amongst the chaos.

And in this heightened space, my mind tries to decipher and seek on a deeper level, intentionally working to be more present during every minute of every day — never knowing how many minutes this lifetime will afford me. But the days are passing by in hyper speed, realizing the rapidness mostly when the blueberries in my fridge have withered.

So in a conversation with one of my favorite humans, she shared a piece of wisdom from her mentor. And I never asked to clarify the context — it was a moment of cherished curiosity, one where I received what I needed. Her mentor said: find peace in the wait/weight.

But here’s the thing — I have no idea which word he used. Was it “wait,” as in the peace found in patience, in living in the present tense? Or was it “weight,” the kind that comes with carrying burdens, with learning to find stillness beneath heaviness? Either way, I felt it.. the duality of meaning.

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #30: growth spurt

I’ve spent a lot of energy thinking about the timing of this message… because it took a while for me to figure out what was happening internally. And with the heaviness of this nation — the fear of the unknown, the blatant inequity that initiates justification of self-preservation and deepens the division in treating humans with dignity and grace — it felt easier to just postpone this lesson laced with gratitude and hope.

You see, I found myself recalling the “unhealthy” state of my life over the last few months, feeling off balance and out of alignment. But when I said unhealthy out loud, it didn’t feel like the correct description of my experience. I realized how many lessons were coming at rapid speed, generating high demand on my internal narrative and worldview. And unpacking the memories of what I thought had been a rough valley filled with uncertainty and darkness, I realized it was just the next level: a growth spurt designed to give more, love more, create more.

Because when the world feels off balance, we have to dig deep to be more hopeful, more faithful, and more grateful. The light will always overpower the darkness… and, more than ever, we need to shine brightly.

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #29: curiosity

I’ve been preparing for an upcoming speech, one where I know the audience will shape my perspective and impact the way I navigate the world. While I feel no pressure or forced preparation, I couldn’t sleep the other night because I was thinking about all the ways I wanted to highlight the importance of the topic — but not for the sake of the audience; rather, I likely need to internalize my anticipated words.

So as I’m lying in bed, I start thinking about the wonder of curiosity — the way it shapes my emotions, my actions, and my worldview. And as clear as can be, I realized how curiosity creates distance between judgment. When I stay curious, I am less likely to jump to an immediate conclusion or react out of anger/fear/anxiety. I can create separation to better employ my executive functioning, allowing empathy and grace to hold space in each interaction. I become more understanding and begin thinking creatively, filling my mind with possibility and awe. I allow myself to be present and patient, to be compassionate and caring.

While there is so much heaviness in this world, my hope is you, too, can find the brilliance in curiosity — even if it is for the benefit of your own nervous system, which will create a ripple effect for those in your orbit.

> > Soulful Saturday 5.0 - Weeks 1-52: celebrate

Five years.

When I was driving the other day, I thought about how far I was behind in writing posts for year five… like “haven’t even started and am still working through year four” behind. It was another weight I carried, documenting the value in being human through my experiential lens. I reminded myself how dedicated I said I’d be to creating space for my thoughts, drafting memories that I knew I’d need later in the journey, crafting hope that others could borrow.

But then this wave of peace came over me, gifting me with grace and alleviating an expectation that was only enforced by me. That moment allowed some breathing room, knowing that my thoughts determine my reality — reflecting on the way endless to do lists make life feel forced, and remembering how feeling pressured was never the purpose.

And in that moment, I acknowledged the lesson that I needed the most: sometimes the very thing you set out to do teaches you a different lens of intentionality. There is deep value in beginning again with new guidelines and parameters, creating a gentleness with yourself that you also hope to give the world.

To another year of meaning and gratitude, of lessons and growth — thank you for being.

11/04/2024

> > Soulful Saturday 4.0 - Week #28: suffering

One of my favorite humans was sharing wisdom from a recent conversation about love languages. The timeliness of the conversation coupled well with my cycling thoughts about loving humans well — through crisis, after poor decisions, during emotional turbulence.

Her recollection of the conversation described acts of service as “the intention of decreasing someone’s suffering.” Imagine a world where we intentionally noticed and acted to create more favorable conditions for those around us, weaving grace and acceptance in the presence of shame or failure. Imagine crafting a space for humans to take off their armor, feeling safe and cared for because another human alleviated the internal battle for a brief moment. Or imagine how unconditional this love language may feel if we allowed another in that space, explaining the intricacies of our suffering without the fear of judgement.

My hope is you find someone who loves you well in this language, decreasing your suffering because you deserve to experience it… no matter what.
