Do you have the courage to be seen?

To be truly known?
To be wrong or disliked?
To be loved without doing?
To just be?

Many of us feel powerless as we put our sense of self in another's hands. In their eyes--knowing we have to meet some sort of unreal expectation based on their trauma, beliefs, and stories--all which have nothing to do with us. Yet we worry about others--allowing them to control how we feel.

It takes courage to see ourselves so wholly that another's view of us or belief in us doesn't matter. To care so much about people that we don't care what they think about us. To love others so completely that we don't take on their stuff--their baggage. To just love ourselves knowing that we are never truly healed or complete. That we are a constant work-in-progress.

It takes courage to be aware of our powerlessness and how we can only blame ourselves for this. Because even the most powerful--myself included--install drains in ourselves allowing others to siphon away our power for fear of abandonment. Because we don't fully trust ourselves or others not to continue the shame-filled pattern of betrayal and hurt. And we make this belief a truth. Because we set it up that way.

So, I ask again--do you have the courage to be seen?
To be truly known?
To be wrong or disliked?
To be loved without doing?
To just be?

And I'll add:

Do you have the courage to love yourself so completely that you don't need any validation of your power? To know you are right and be completely ok with being disagreed with? To know that ultimately someone else's reaction to you has nothing to do with you?

You are a mirror to the world around you. What they see in you is just a reflection of what they desire or what they don't want to see in themselves.

Do you have the courage to stand in your power and drop the act? You are powerful AF--when you decide to be.

Join us for virtual & in-person events

A little something for everyone

When Dan & I became business partners last year and started One Moksha, we were clear that we wanted to build a community of growth-minded people who could learn from each other. As much as virtual events are helpful, IRL connection was one of our biggest focal points.

That said, we have both virtual and in-person events for you listed inside the OM Network. Sunday Soul Sessions on the last Sunday of every month + quarterly Eyes Wide Open multiple day events. We have seasonal Hama healing retreats for those who want to dive deep into who they really are with ceremony and guidance along with The Brilliant Rebels Experience twice a year.

Soon, we'll be launch The One Moksha Collective, an ecosystem of magical humans who will walk alongside you as you become the best version of yourself. But until then, check out our upcoming events inside the Network and sign up. We'd love to have you.
