Releasing the Cycle of the Wounded Healer
Fire Consumes. Water Cleanses. Things are destroyed only to begin again. Welcome to this fresh start.
In the tale of generational healing and spiritual awakening, this year has guided me to sit in the depths of my soul's journey. I think sometimes as spiritual teachers there is an assumption from the lens of students and scholars that the more we know and study, the more evolved we are from experiencing life’s transitional shifts, grief, quiet seasons, uncertainty, and darkness. I’m here to be a witness of truth for you, we are buried in the dark like plants so that we might break through the soil and return to light over and over again. Perhaps, as we continue to live and let it be, the winters and darkness come with a sense of ease. I heard an elder say this past week, “Wisdom feels GOOD.” I feel I might have a better sense of resonance with that statement now more than ever. Here I am. Breaking through soil - in a chapter that dances between the realms of intuition, motherhood, and spiritual teaching. As a descendant of seven generations of preachers, my life has been a tapestry woven with threads of tradition, expectations, and the quiet whispers from the divine.
A Little Story Medicine
Behind the veil of perfectionism that adorned my upbringing, a hidden battle raged within me - a battle-scarred by PTSD and a thirst for profound connection and self-discovery. The echoes of past traumas reverberated through my spirit, shaping my identity and fueling a relentless pursuit of validation and worthiness.
In the depths of introspection and self-exploration, I embarked on a transformative odyssey of spontaneous trial and error, ebb and flow; relinquishing the idea that everything had to be a means to an end. This innate audacity would unlock the doors to my intuitive gifts and inner wisdom. Through the alchemy of therapy, meditation, and unyielding curiosity, I began to embrace my intuition as a sacred compass, guiding me through the labyrinth of healing and spiritual rebirth.
Fire Consumes
My path was (…and still feels at times) laced with challenges and shadows, demanding that I confront and give thanks as I release the legacy of ancestral wounds and learn to trust that I can hear, see, & feel beyond the veil of this tangible world. Yet, with each step into the unknown, I felt the discomfort and tethered trauma stories of the past loosen their grip, paving the way for a newfound sense of storytelling, desire, and empowerment.
Let me say it this way; and perhaps, a bit louder for those in the back (skeptical and addicted to telling trauma stories or stuck in the cycle of ‘wounded healer’)…. when we focus our attention on our own emotional, physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing, the intention of your storytelling shifts. The audience shifts. Your why, shifts. Suddenly, you come to see the evidence that complaining less, releasing the need to convince and explain and have an answer and apology from every friend or family member that didn’t handle you with care- becomes less of a hindrance and more of a help in your quest to making love to life. The saying goes, what’s understood doesn’t have to be explained. You have an assignment:
Transmute the darkness, find peace in the fragmented light, and keep your light! When you heal, everyone in your vortex gets this work by default! It is not your business to make them choose this path or see its value.
Water Cleanses
My intuition emerged as a radiant beacon of truth and clarity, illuminating the path to self-discovery, purpose, and universal interconnectedness. Embracing my spiritual gifts, I found solace in the serenity of profound self-awareness and unity with the cosmos. While I am aware that my celestial talk may be intimidating to some or off-putting to others, I want to assure you that the amount of peace and untethered existence I am committed to practicing and living keeps me from getting lost in the dark. This posture and Divine provision also allow me to vibrate on a frequency where I can locate, commune, love, and be loved by ‘the others’. Those that get it. Those that live it. Those who accepted the invitation to a fresh start.
As a mother and spiritual guide, I am such a lover of devotion. It feels good to my nervous system and my body when I can share the sacred teachings and revelations born from my journey of dying while living and rebirth. I thank the Universe and heavenly hosts every day I can inspire and uplift souls on their pilgrimage of authenticity, vulnerability, and self-love.
May we continue to journey together in the light of divine wisdom and unconditional love.
Love is you,
Kira.

With this in mind, a self-care devotion could involve practices that promote circulation, detoxification, and emotional release.
