I felt punched in the stomach but knew I had to follow the prompt from my Angels.
Hidden attachments can surface when we least expect them to. Here’s the story of a recent, HUGE “AHA” for me that has made me shift gears in my business, close 90% of it and let go of the #1 attachment in my life which is perfect to share when the Full Blue Moon day last night was about letting go.
We strive for happiness, success, love and joy. We place high expectations on these attributes to fulfil us, only to find we keep striving, keep searching keep wondering when will have feel balanced, full and peaceful.
I have learned in my life that the journey itself IS the destination. That a destination, never really comes to be, for when it does, we create new destinations to strive for.
A new piece of this journey I have recently learned is that we need to have NO ATTACHMENTS. For when we let go of any attachments, only then we can find true freedom and peace. The attachments keep us blinded to only one way of thinking. We fail to see the other blessings and opportunities the universe has waiting for us.
Learning this, I had said to myself rather confidently, “I have no attachments”. I don’t drink often, don’t smoke or do drugs. I am single and my kids have moved out. I’m happy, practice self-care and love lots about my life. What would I be attached to?
The universe has a way of showing us what we need to see, often when we least expect it.
First, I was hacked online in 2020. Wiped clean of my social media accounts, website and lost TONS of information, TV interview recordings, course material etc. Being a resilient person as a high achiever, I thought… “Ok universe, you wiped me clean. It’s time to re-evaluate my business and rebrand.” I scaled down, went back to Heaven & Earth Inc. and left the Live Life Colourfully brand and the decade of work I lost to the hackers.
However, I didn’t get the message. At least, not how the universe intended.
In 2021 I heard loud and clear from my angels and guides to “STOP your business”. I was shocked. I pushed my chair back from my desk and said, “What??” out loud. I didn’t believe what I was hearing. Then they said, “Stop building the empire. It has been built. Now it’s time to share your knowledge and skills with the world.”
After pondering this realization for a while, I decided to take all my knowledge and begin my membership program. To add to this direction, I brought back Ecstatic Dances for the community.
Is this what the universe meant?? NOPE!
Once again, in 2024 I heard my angels say, “STOP. Just stop. Everything, with the exception of seeing your clients.” I shook my head again in disbelief. Stop?? Everything??? I had launched a new website, brought back Ecstatic Dance, done contract work in my field. How? Why?
Honestly, it was a blow. Stop everything? After 28 years with my company, I dove into myself again and worked through the thoughts and feelings of this pending change. How would I feel if I DID NOT have Heaven & Earth??
There was my attachment.
I felt it in the pit of my stomach. I have been attached to my business. It’s been my identity since I was 24. I felt like I was hit with a ton of bricks. With recovering from surgery, putting my back out, getting ill and having covid all this year, I had no choice but to sit in the uncomfortableness and acknowledge what the universe had been saying to me since 2020. I now realized why I kept getting delayed to work this year with all my physical ailments.
I’ll admit, it’s been hard. I’ve been through lots of emotions because I’ve been proud to say I own a personal development company, spoken to thousands of people over the years, taught and seen clients globally, written two books, developed products and held community events. I’ve given my heart and soul with my work for others while doing my own soul work.
However, I recognized a theme that had played out many times in my life. I had been focusing on being a Human DOing and not fully a Human BEing. In fact, for years I was uncomfortable to admit that I’m a spiritual intuitive and medium for fear of being judged. It was easier for me to hide behind Doing things that tied into my gifts instead of just believing in myself enough to admit in the forefront that I have these spiritual gifts.
Interestingly and recently, parts of my business just stopped. Contracts came to an end. Angel pendants could no longer be made. Contracts ended. I knew I was getting asked to stop Ecstatic Dances too, which I did this month with blind faith. I was listening now – really listening. I also began to see how I needed to embrace ME even more fully and authentically. I had let go of my coloured hair to be even more authentic too. Now, there’s one piece left for true authenticity. Just BE.
I believe (and hope) I have accomplished the soul work that was asked of me. I have let go of the attachment. Now – my only focus is healing, guiding and inspiring YOU through one-on-one Soul Sessions and Spiritual Readings. I am no longer scared to say I’m clairvoyant, clairaudient and clairsentient. When someone asks what I “Do” for a living, I can confidently say “Who I am” instead. I’m a “Spiritual Messenger and Guide helping you through life’s challenges and changes so you can feel lighter and shine brighter”.
It’s funny because I have that tag line on my website and even my business card for the last year, but I never fully embraced it until now.
Attachments are sticky. They stick to us, tricking us into believing that without them we’d have no comfort, happiness or peace. When in reality, letting go of our attachments allows the spiritual world to bless us with more abundance, love and joy in ways we couldn’t even comprehend possible.
I’m excited about what’s to come and LOVE helping the clients that have been booking appointments during a time in the world where we all need support to get through this journey called life.
I’ll continue to share tips, tools and stories on social media, my blogs and emails with a focus on BEing a spiritual messenger and guide to help you on your journey. Of course, my love of colour and healing with the chakras will remain as it’s a powerful tool I use daily. I hope you’ll continue to stay connected as I have appreciated your Subscriptions, Likes, Follows and Comments.
Over the years I have always stayed authentic in allowing you to be a part of my journey. I wanted you all to know that regardless of how much soul work we do, we are always learning and growing together. I feel trusting, peaceful and on the right track. My angels and guides provide TONS of confirmation every day. I'm thankful for your continued support and love. I appreciate you :)
When you need me to help you connect with your angels, guides and loved ones, understand the bigger picture, get clarification for your situation, find ways to heal your spirit and get unstuck – reach out. I’m excited to connect with you and BE that person for you.
Together, let's embrace the freedom of letting go and discover the true peace and happiness that awaits us.
Love and Light
Angela (Messenger) Dawn (Guiding Light)
