We often hear with our ears, but do we truly listen with our hearts? ❤️
There’s a big difference between hearing someone and understanding them.
- What do you think sets the two apart?

3 ways we sabotage communication without realizing it:
1. Avoiding difficult topics (thinking they'll go away)
2. Reacting instead of listening
3. Assuming the other person understands you
Recognize yourself in any of these?
Before you wish for something new,
Say “thank you” for the things you already have.
Manifesting the next stage of your journey starts with gratitude.
The more you practice gratitude, the more health and wealth you will attract.

Gratitude turns what we have into enough.
Take a moment today to appreciate the small things—a kind word, a warm cup of tea, or a quiet moment of peace.
What are you thankful for today? 🙏🏼✨

What we focus on grows. 🌱
If you're constantly dwelling on the negative, you're inviting more of it into your life.
Shift your attention to what you want, not what you fear.

Step 3: Practice daily gratitude
Gratitude shifts your focus from lack to abundance.

Are you living by default or by design?
Conscious creation is about taking control of your life and designing a reality that aligns with your true self.
Here’s how to start:
🧵 1/5
Have you ever said “when it rains, it pours”?
Or how about.. “bad things happen in 3s”?
Ever wonder why bad things all seem to pile up at once? 🤔
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
Triggers are a mirror for our own inner wounds 💔
The next time you become triggered, ask yourself:
1. How do I feel here?
2. Why do I feel this way?
3. Is this event activating an old memory?
4. What does this situation/person make me feel about myself?
Grief can feel like a never-ending storm.
But you’re not alone.
Here are a few things that helped *me* through my own personal journey of grief and healing. 🌊✨

When you’re okay with being alone..
You won’t settle. ❌
Why?

Your bank balance isn’t an indicator of wealth.
