What's MY calling?


 I woke up the other morning, 

once again acutely aware of the fact that I was still searching for a TITLE for myself. One that fit my calling in this life.


The title, or term ’Coach’ has always been an option, but has never been a clear fit for me. Adviser, consultant, mentor, teacher, trainer, hostess, facilitator… all these seem to hold an aspect of what I’m about. So I once again my mind suggested and toyed with all of these terms. But none seemed to feel just right. Just like in the story of The Three Bears, all these terms seemed too hot, too cold, too big, too small, too hard, or too soft. I didn’t want to settle until I found a title that felt, Just Right. And none of these comfortably fit me. 


So once again I sat with some disappointment and frustration, unable to nail a title that I could sit inside of with complete contentment.   Accepting my failure with a deep sigh, I let go. I let go of the striving and surrendered. I dropped into a quiet stillness. 


Then, to my surprised mind, arising out of the seeming void, the words, ‘Way Shower’ came into my awareness. Way Shower. I rolled these words around my tongue and mind, savoring their flavors and textures. Finding nothing to reject, my face slowly broke into a smile. Could this be the fit? I jumped up to perform research in order to see if, how, or where these words, this phrase, this title might already be in use.


After eliminating the top hits showing me pictures of bathroom shower fixtures, a simple Google search presented some fascinating descriptions of ‘Way Shower’. Disappointingly though, all seemed to have decidedly woo woo Spiritual overtones. 


My past includes having been a member of a religious cult that claimed the existence of a spiritual hierarchy of beings enlisted to watch over the evolution of the human race. Woo woo. I wasn’t interested in buying into that dogma again. But I set aside  that resistance for a moment to listen to a particular video’s description of, ‘Way Shower Lightworker’. And I actually found a surprisingly accurate description of myself, my values, my life experiences, and how I’ve come to understand my life’s meaning and my calling.

Here are some notes I pulled both from my web search and from the video:  


What is a ‘Way Shower’?


One who shows others the way by simply awakening and living her truth; (by Being that truth rather than preaching it.)  

A galactic ninja standing at the leading edge of consciousness and pre-paving the way for others to follow.

One who uses her leadership skills to help light the world. 

A Being who is Channeling her Higher Self.


A WAY SHOWER: 


  • Leads others to discover what she already knows about them; 
    • “You are your own greatest teacher and all you will ever need to know is inside you.”
  • Is on the path of Awakening and Discovery
  • Guides others by living an inspired and Authentic Life
  • Acts as an example and inspiration for others to follow
  • Keeps in mind the highest interest of All Beings
  • Is gentle, nurturing, peaceful and intuitive
  • Has deep respect for nature and animals
  • Serves Humanity
  • Lights the path for others so that they may move onto their own path
  • Creates a new world of Community, Harmony, and Equality
  • Lives in resonance with her Truth and Authenticity
  • Teaches, Guides and Inspires others through her actions


Signs that suggest you may be a WAY SHOWER:


YOU:

  • Had a hard time growing up; experienced many childhood difficulties
  • Learned to overcome hardship
  • Are a Pioneer; have a more expansive point of view than average 
    • People notice your vibrancy, your love and your support for others; the positivity you naturally impart to others
    • Others admire that you are genuine and live in alignment with your truth and values
    • Other people are intrigued and inspired by you
  • YOU:

  • feel sad and lonely looking at how others can act cruelly or mindlessly
  • don't trust most religions, institutions or governments, and are aware the competition hidden agendas behind most power groups
  • are where you're living your life differently from most people
  • are always wanting to learn
  • make an effort to diversify what you are learning about and keep an open mind for different opinions and perspectives
  • attract people who need help; people who feel they can trust
  • have Special Abilities


For me, the most important aspect of this description, as I sense into my deepest intention as a teacher, trainer, coach, guide, listener, advisor and supporter, is my knowledge that: 


“We are our own greatest teachers and all we will ever need to know is already inside us.” 


I wish for all of us to deeply realize and fully live the truth that,

We need no one to confirm us; we are everything we believe ourselves to be.”


What about you? Might you also be a Way Shower? 

Or perhaps there is a different title you can give yourself, and fully own? 

Are you searching for that title, that identity, that quality that fits just right?  


Are you ready to COME HOME to yourSelf; your Brilliant, Powerful, Magnificent True Self...

to be Fully Alive & Present in each rich Moment?


Could you benefit from the support of one who validates and reflects the Truth of your own Inner Wisdom, your own Brilliant Source, Spirit, and Inner Guide? One who SEES and reflects your wisdom, beauty and value?

                One who can help you clarify your gifts, values and calling?


How about a free conversation with me to see if I can support you in that?

HEALING THE WOUND OF NON-SUPPORT

     We must receive support before we can ever give it Many of us were born and raised in homes where we did not receive the support we really needed in order to feel safe, seen, grounded, and valued. For whatever reasons, our parents and families and perhaps even our communities were unable to give us enough responsive attention for us to anchor a feeling of being empowered and supported into our Beings.   Because we did not receive this support for our very Being, our essence, we came to distrust ourselves and those around us. We became unable to receive support, even when it was sincerely offered. We came to feel that we were a burden and that we didn’t deserve to have support or feel supported. We tried to make it through our lives by being totally self-sufficient. Since we couldn’t receive support, we reasoned, maybe we didn’t need it.   We managed for quite some time in this way. But we found that we were unable to feel totally at ease with ourselves and ...
