Turn Your Purpose Into Your Career
Welcome back, I'm so excited to have you here and to dive into this topic today.
I want to start off by sharing that I was inspired to talk about transitioning in terms of your career, your job, and specifically about your purpose and your soul's calling because on a recent live stream I was channeling angel messages for people, and that was a common question that I saw come up. People asking about their careers or jobs and their purpose. So I wanted to share a little bit more about how you can actually transition into your career being a reflection of your soul's true purpose.
For those of you who are here and you know that your purpose is to be a healer, to be a lightworker, to help others in some way, this blog post is for you! And for those of you who are watching and you're like, “I have no idea what my soul's purpose is. I just know that what I'm doing right now is not it.” This blog post is also for you. It's going to meet you wherever you're at.
I'm also going to share a little bit about my own personal journey and how it got me to where I am today.
Widespread Soul Awakening
I want to start off by sharing that I feel that a lot of people are awakening to their soul's true path. A lot of people are realizing that the status quo - go to school, get a job, and work nine to five - that whole thing isn't working for a lot of people.
For some, it does work and they're happy with it and that's what they want and that's beautiful. If that's you, then that's perfect and that's beautiful.
But for many other people, and this is what I personally experienced as well, being in that structured space and having to show up in a certain way at a certain time on these particular days was just not my vibe. I just knew that that wasn't for me, even though before I awakened to all of this, I was on that trajectory and path to pursue a career as a research scientist.
I was in the science field, I graduated with that degree and it was what I was doing. Then the awakening process woke me up to the fact that no, I'm actually not going to be happy doing that. That is not my true purpose.
Collectively Going Against The Grain
First and foremost, for those of you who are wanting to transition your career and step into more of your soul's true purpose, the first thing that you have to realize is that the path that you're meant to follow is breaking the paradigm. You are not following the current paradigm, which is, like I said, you go to school, get an education and then get a job and stay in that career for 30 plus years.
We have to come to terms with the fact that we are here to go against the grain and that not a lot of people are going to understand that way of thinking or they will feel like that's a huge step. You have to be really brave to do that. And it's true. You do. It takes a lot of courage. But that's one of the first things that you have to be willing to do.
One of the first things that you have to come to terms with is that your path is not going to look like anything of what's been laid out in society as the norm. That’s the first thing.
Knowing Your Purpose
The next question I want to answer is around knowing your purpose. Some of you are watching this and you have an idea or you have some sort of a knowing, that you're here to help people heal or to support some sort of transformation, or guidance. You want to be of service to other people. Others who are watching this, you might just be like, “I don't know, I have no idea.”
The core foundational principle when it comes to your purpose that we all have to understand is that your soul is here to expand - meaning that it is here to grow.
It is here to go through shifts and changes. It's not meant to stay stagnant and it's not meant to stay in this predictable space.
Expansion means moving into the unknown. It means going beyond your comfort zone. It means growing in different ways.
The soul is here to expand. The other thing that the soul is here to do is to bring through creative expression. I feel like that's one of the core things and that's one of the core places where people feel stuck and feel disconnected from their themselves - because they don't know how their soul desires to express itself because they haven't done it in so long.
Free Flowing Soul Expression
Imagine decades of cutting off that expression and then suddenly allowing expression to flow through you freely. So then it's like, “wait. Well, what am I? What is my soul here to even say or express or how is that expression meant to come through?”
The thing is, your soul desires to express itself!
There is a core expression, a creative expression that's meant to come through.
When I say expression, it doesn't necessarily mean speaking - although obviously that's a form of expression.
Expression is any way in which we are bringing through light and love into the world.
Expression can mean writing, it can mean dancing, it can mean music, it can mean art, it can mean holding space for other people, coaching, it can mean guiding others in some way. There's so many possibilities when it comes to your soul's creative expression.
I want you to ask yourself, how is my soul desiring to bring light and love into the world? What is the way in which that is being translated through me into a more physical, tangible form for people to receive? That is your soul's creative expression.
Your Connection to the Divine
As part of that, the last thing is that your soul is meant to be an expression of the divine. That means your connection to the divine - whether you call that God, source energy, the universe, etc. - that connection is important. That connection is what's going to feed that energy so that the expression of light and love is coming through in its purest form and not clouded by ego or anything like that, but actually just coming through as pure light and love.
Your connection to the divine is going to be really powerful to support you with that.
I still do this on my journey every single day, but especially when I first started and when I awoke to this fact that I'm not following the rat race corporate career path. I am going to do my own thing. I have no idea what it is, but I just know that I want to help people. I know that I want to be my own boss and do my own thing and be free and experience joy and peace, freedom, all of that in my life. And I'm going to create that for myself. I don't know how yet, but I'm going to.
The prayer that I would repeat was, “please reveal to me how you desire to express yourself through me. God, angels, universe, please show me how the energy of light and love is meant to flow through me to support other people.”
Any variation of that prayer where you're basically saying, I surrender. I want you to use me as a vessel. I am willing, I'm raising my hand to allow the expression of light and love to flow through me. Show me the way.
That is going to start to lead you down the path, whatever it is that you need to explore, whatever it is that you need to discover to become that.
For me, saying that prayer back in 2015 or 2016, eventually led me to discovering energy healing. That led me to discovering the angels. That led me to the download that came through that said, practice your connection to the angels because it's going to be important for you and the work that you do in the world.
Even at the time was like, what are you talking about? That makes no sense at all. And so it's important to know that that constant prayer, and like I said, I still pray that to this day to support me and continue to guide me on my path, that this is something that's going to lead you and support you in being that open vessel where you're surrendering to the guidance, you're surrendering to the spiritual connection that desires to flow through you, that is meant to flow through you as part of your purpose. Because like I said, your purpose is to be this creative energy, this expression of light and love, and the divine will show you how exactly that's meant to look like in the world.
I know it can be tempting for our minds to say, okay, I'm going to figure it out. Let me plan, what makes sense? What should I do? What can I do now? And it's great and you will probably come up with a pretty good plan. But the divine always has our best interests at heart. The divine knows the path that's for our highest good. And so it's always this fine balance of surrendering and trusting and allowing that energy to move through you.
The Importance of Spiritual Exploration
Now, one of the things that really supported me on this path, because like I said, I knew at some point on my journey that I wasn't meant to follow that path. It did take me quite a few years to get to the place where I knew what my business was going to be. So I was working my nine to five, knowing that I wasn't meant to be there forever.
I knew that I wanted to help people. I was saying this prayer and I was also doing my own spiritual exploration and I feel like that was one of the core key things that really catapulted me onto my journey because I started to recognize and understand that I have gifts. I knew that I had some sort of a connection. I knew that there's something that I was meant to bring into the world, but I didn’t know exactly how it is going to look or what I'm supposed to say exactly.
I knew that the connection to my soul and to my true self was going to elevate me, but I had no idea how at that time. I still thought that I was meant to be a health coach and a nutritionist and I was trying to pursue that type of a career still in line with being an entrepreneur with helping other people, but it wasn't exactly where I was meant to go and the way the reason why my trajectory even shifted is because I was pursuing my spiritual connection with my own self and so as I was developing this awareness of my divine self, what happened is that I started to peel off the layers that were holding me back from truly owning my gifts and knowing that I have this spiritual connection with the angels and supporting me with being confident in showing up for that, developing my voice and strengthening my capacity to express through my voice, since that is for me, a particular way that my soul desires to express itself.
I had to clear the layers that were blocking me from speaking confidently and sharing and expressing and believing in the fact that I had something important to say that people wanted to hear, and that my voice mattered.
And that I think is one of the biggest blocks is the fear of sharing and expressing and also being seen. Working through those things, healing the past, strengthening my voice, deepening in my connection, deepening in my gifts was the thing that catapulted me into where I am today.
How To Get Started On Your Soul Path
For those of you, whether you have some idea of where you're meant to go, what you're meant to do, or you have no idea, I would say that that is the key place for you to start is to say that prayer that I shared with you, some variation of it, and to start to and continue to grow in your spiritual connection with your divine self, to look at how you view yourself as an expression of light and love, how you feel in terms of your voice being seen and heard, your self being seen and heard, your gifts to be seen and heard, and to focus on that development because that will always lead you to exactly where you're meant to go.
Through your surrender, through this process of trust and faith and knowing that you are here to deliver a beautiful gift, a beautiful mission in this world. You were chosen for it. That's why you're here. That's why you're here. You were chosen. Knowing that you are worthy of this, you are worthy, you are supported, you are guided.
The key is every single day to have that commitment to show up and for that surrender to come through.
It doesn't mean that you have to show up on camera or do something like that every single day. It just means that you're showing up for yourself. You're showing up for yourself in compassion and love. Which means that if you're having a bad day or having a bad week or whatever's coming up, it doesn't mean that you give up. It just means that you are showing up for yourself. You're showing up for yourself in compassion and in love so that you can continue to be a vessel for the mission that the divine has chosen you for.
That is the key starting point.
