At this pivotal point in my life, I’ve decided to take responsibility for my happiness. I’m putting those hard-earned life lessons together with that Psychology degree people keep asking me what I’m ‘going to do’ with, and I’m making something for myself.
I want to help people. Always have.
Still, it took me exactly 26 years, 11 months, 4 days to figure out how to effectively apply my skills and intention in a way to truly make a meaningful outward impact. While I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not exactly where I want to be in life, I feel balanced and I’m continually working on personal growth, so I know I’m heading in the right direction!
It was New Years Eve, and I was home, missing the Kiddo who was at Grammy’s house, thinking about turning in early since ‘nothing’ was my pre-arranged agenda for the evening. Absent-mindedly checking my cell after the tell-tale bleep of a new text, I read the meme once, then again.
It read something along the lines of: “I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since I didn’t become a better person”. It was supposed to be humorous, and I might have chuckled, well at leased cracked a smile, if I hadn’t lost my job the day before.
The circumstances weren’t all that dire, I knew I was going to be getting the pink slip. It was the overwhelming feeling of dread when I thought about having to find another soul-crushing job that would only allow me to continue on with my life in debt-slave mode… Or, I could embrace change, make the situation work in my favor and become a better person in the process.
Seeking Self was my way of rekindling my passion for writing in a way that will allow me to operate my life with a greater sense of awareness of what is going on in the world around me. It helped me begin to impact the world in a meaningful way. I’ve never been able to ignore this insatiable need for self-knowledge. I feel compelled to share with the world in the hopes of engaging and helping others.
We’re all connected, we’re all affected.
In the 6 years, 9 months, 27 days since then, I have welcomed 100’s of people to my practice of self-discovery and expansion. Today, this site is where I connect with, and respond to, my world. I’m constantly connecting with new people, reflecting on experiences and life patterns, so I can set new goals.
It is my intention to rekindle the natural sense of curiosity in my fellow Humans. I’m consistently working to deconstruct my own conditioning, freeing my inner voice, and finding my Core – for the sake of being able to guide others more deeply into their own Psyche.
This is me living out loud and encouraging you to do the same. My work is me Seeking Self. I’m glad you’re here! To continue to get to know me, please see my About page!
