Tonight hubby did something he rarely does…
he joined me at a personal development seminar.
Yes…there IS a God ☆
We experienced something unexpectedly powerful; a seminar with the brilliantly funny, wise, and wildly dynamic Latina rockstar coach-of-coaches, Karen Hoyos ☆
She spoke on Ego vs. Essence, and wow… my soul was nodding the entire time.
One thing Karen did that felt refreshingly different (and honestly very delightful) was how she helped us see our ego instead of fighting it.
We actually got to name our egos. Mine is ‘Clarita’. Hubby’s is “Bryce’.
And here’s a very cool part…
Karen shared that once we become aware of our ego
and lovingly accept it,
it no longer runs the show.
Because what’s brought into the light is no longer a shadow.
When we stop shaming, suppressing, or battling our ego, something beautiful happens:
It softens.
It gets curious.
It gets tamed… and even loved.
From that place, we naturally become more aligned, more congruent, and more anchored in our true Purpose/Mission/WHY.
She invited us to try on:
The ego isn’t the villain.
It’s a protector with a job.
And when consciously integrated, it actually helps us serve the world through our unique gifts.
We can even have FUN with our ego… while making the world a better place. How good is that?
So today’s gentle FAB FRIDAY invitation is this:
Notice how your ego shows up
Get curious instead of critical
Shine a loving light instead of pushing it away
Because when Essence leads and Ego is lovingly onboard…that’s when the real magic happens.
If your heart is curious, I invite you to explore Karen’s beautiful Mission here:
She’s even running a magical retreat in the Mayan Rivera at the end of May if you need a great Spring Break & transformation!
Sending you SO much love, light, and joyful self-awareness this FAB FRIDAY 
Keep shining; as the shadows dissolve when you do.
