You heart is your sanctuary

Cliff note motivation for your month ahead

No more settling

Being vulnerable is not like the movies

Not falling apart while being stronger than fear

After writing my memoir Damaged Girl in 2018, I knew in some odd way that things would never be the same. Navigating this life is never going to be easy, but when you give your heart out and realize that sometimes people may be more broken than they led you to believe.

Listen to the memoir here for free.

My memoir discusses affairs of the hearts but also the trauma from family, self and friends. When they say: romance is not like the movies, and sometimes it’s messy.

A love that leaves you breathless could also be a wreckage waiting to happen.

Deep, painful, and transformational moments of great joy and fear.

Never be afraid to love.

Never close off your heart.

Dream, dance, and stand in the middle.

Feel it all.

Then, let it go with a new thought of love, peace, and trust.

After being betrayed, hurt, and overlooked, you can feel as though you are not worthy. Take a moment to be still, calm, and tune into the inner voice within.

Falling in love requires you to fall in love with yourself first.

Sometimes following your heart is risky.

Breaking out of generational trauma, expectations, and aligning with your own soul and truth could be the catalyst to truly release your fears, embrace the unknown, and recognize your true happiness comes from letting your shame be known. Yes, all the ugly (with love) Sometimes the things that keep us trapped are our own minds. Sometimes what we feel is out of our league is exactly what we require to inspire us to grow and align with our highest self and timeline.

Tell them you love them, but first love with truth and intention.

Self Love is a journey that requires getting in front of the mirror and see that your here, alive and by looking deeply into your eyes you will see your heart has always been the santuary.

Take some times this month to work with Clear quartz, amethyst and citrine.

Repeat after me:

My heart was built for this, for love, loss, and pain.

I no longer harden to be claimed.

If you're reading this, you are the floor beneath your feet, the wind in your hair, and the blue sky. No more holding your breath, stand up and feel the big change that can only make its presence known when we truly know love.

Your heart is here, it's safe, and the steady sound of the train makes its way across the valley.

Reminding you that, even in a world full of strangers, validation was never yours to ask for; it was always within.

Love, Elise
