Embodying authenticity: Owning who you are unapologetically

I’ve recently come to a realization of just how far I have come to be seated and anchored in my own authenticity.

There are so many variables along the way that attempts to keep us entangled with that which is not of our nature. That which does not serve our highest good. That which does not align with our overall purpose and expansion in life. Those variables can take many faces and forms, and often times we can get caught up in the illusion of it all. Distorted from the reality of what actually belongs to us versus what doesn’t. Who are we? And who are we not?

In my view, Authenticity is the embodiment of the ‘organic essence’ of who we truly are.

But in order to find the organic core center of one’s essence, we must be first willing to peel back all of the layers of what we think we are and who we believe ourselves to be. We must be willing to look deep. To delve even deeper. And then be courageous enough to recognize, dismantle, and release what we find with gentleness and grace. It is then that we begin to come into the remembering and knowing of the ‘organic authenticity’ that lies underneath.

Often times, this can take a life long process for many souls. Maybe even a next lifetime process. It is a process that is simpler stated than fulfilled, indeed. It is a process that is many times uneasy, uncomfortable, even destabilizing at some points. But oh, it is such a worthy process!

If we souls can choose to confront the layers and boldly release what doesn’t align - we can tap into harnessing our full potential and a much fuller expansion.

Right now there are many souls that would possibly argue that they are authentic or living in Authenticity. Yet cannot see that they are instead living, acting, breathing, and embodying a version that is running on a series of illusionary programs that is shaping their entire reality. And this is because they haven't yet done the pattern recognition and deep insight it takes to dismantle and peel back the false layers that have become who they are versus who they actually are in their organic essence.

I once lived in a reality where I many times suppressed myself - my true authentic nature. Because of societal programmings, familial (cultural) programmings, collective (hive mind) programmings, (instilled) fear programmings…..you name it.

And because of all of the programmings, indoctrinations, opinions, fears etc. we take on, we don’t realize how or when they all became armored layers that merged with our form, with our thinking, with our desires, with our mind. Layers that created a hardened shell of armor that masks who we truly are underneath them.

This hardened shell is nothing more than a composite of belief systems we wear out into the world. Nothing more than an illusion. Yet the world affirms it back to us and we buy into the illusion further. Doubling down on the false identifying of what we are not. Not realizing that the world affirms to us what we are not because the world is also working on a base set of collective programmings.

Now that affirmation may make us feel good in moments. But on the other end of that affirmation, there is a dreadful disconnection and discomfort that comes from something bigger, deeper within us. Sometimes we cant put our finger on it, to express it or fully know it. But we feel it. And that discomfort can drive us to seek relief either through investigation, awareness, confrontation, and transcending what we find. Or, we are driven to seek relief by ignoring, suppressing, numbing, and distraction.

It just so happens, I prefer to confront. To challenge. To release. To delve deeper. To know. To transcend. To be free in totality and absolution. Not just in a fleeting moment.

If you are like me, then you would probably be considered what is known as a “divergent.” One that is prone or willing to take roads far less traveled. If you are, then you are my kinsmen and this space is a safe and welcome space for you.

I once lived in a reality where they tried to train me and steer me to be everything that I know myself not to be. They tried to silence me, ostracize me, shame me, project upon me, box me, shrink me, dim me and even get me to do these things to myself. I am sure that there are many of you out there who have experienced the same.

It was once taboo for me to openly claim my authentic knowing, embodiment, remembrance, and power. But not anymore. That is not my story or portion.

And right here right now I proudly openly claim my authority as a sovereign being and I proudly say;

I Am A Healer. I Am A Leader. I Am A Speaker. I Am An Author. I Am A Teacher. I Am A Student. I Am A Creator. I Am A Seer. I Am A Shaman. I Am A Oracle. I Am A Master of My Own Energy, Field, and Domain. I Am A Divine Goddess. And I Am So Much More……

Now who are you at the core of your authentic being? Underneath the mask of illusion and the many layers of belief programmings and identifications?

Claim your own sovereign authority openly every chance you get. Unapologetically.
