You see, trauma... to most people... is something very obviously dark and traumatic.
For example, when I was 9, I was hit by a big firecracker while innocently watching a neighborhood show...
… and suffered from 2nd and 3rd degree burns on about 1/4 of my body.
I spent weeks in the hospital and it was a huge deal.
That's of course very traumatic.
But would you believe that failing swim lessons when I was 7 years old was actually MORE traumatic to me?
I felt horrible...
I'll never forget that last day of swim lessons.
The emotions I felt during that experience made a HUGE impact on me
Far more than the firework incident.
This caused me to identify with being a failure.
I came to believe... trying new things, challenging myself and ambition... to be associated with potentially extreme disappointment.
I came to expect failure... as an innate aspect of my identity.
Later in life, when my intuition and spirit would compel me to try out new things, I would always experience a tremendous amount of doubt and resistance…
All stemming from that early "not seemingly so traumatic" life experience.
So many of us have had experiences just like this that we have allowed to unconsciously define who we are.
They limit what we think we are capable of.
Therefore, the life we live now is heavily bounded by these past traumas, stopping us from realizing our true potential.
Luckily, over the past decade, I have gone through my own spiritual awakening and healing journey.
Where I have not only been able to become aware of such traumas, but been able to remove the blockages and take the inspired action on my life purpose.
This process of healing has helped me to expand my intuitive abilities and given me the depth in clarity and trust that allows me to move forward quickly and take action on any signs from the universe.
