From Stagnation to Celebration: Embracing the Passion-Led Path

From Stagnation to Celebration: Embracing the Passion-Led Path

I don't know about you, but I am a massive over-thinker in so many ways. Often, this overthinking can get in my way and truly stop me from achieving my goals. In fact, overthinking can take me from having a strong vision and a goal to completely obliterating it in my mind and becoming a quivering jelly mush, all still in my mind. 

Which honestly isn't much fun. 

One of the quivering jelly areas is my blog space, so I'm trying to beat this jelly mess and just do the thing. I'm stepping myself imperfectly into the bravezone, which is something I'm actually quite good at. (Yes, I am a walking contradiction, and it's okay because I know lots of you are too.)

I am at a stage of changing and evolving my business. I've had the inspiration, I know what it's going to be called, I've had so many downloads and ideas for a new podcast format, new blog ideas, new opportunities to work with me 1:1, new product ideas, finally wanting to bring my bespoke Cosmic Armour to the website and many ideas beyond this. I see visions of myself holding circles and speaking, connecting with so many to help them and guide them on their own...

Passion Led Path

But sometimes, putting words from the inside of my brain to the outside of my brain can be a true struggle. So when my mentor asked me, "What is the transformation of the people you're trying to reach? What is the A to B?" I was like, "Oh, hey, there's a robin in my garden". Cute, very ADHD, but not very helpful. 

So, after our meeting, I went and sent a very long voicenote to a dear friend, whilst making pancakes for lunch, who refused to give me the answer. Why? Because it has to come from me right?! So the next stage was to do some meditation and ask the spirit of my business using my favourite oracle deck (mushroom spirit oracle) 

"What is the Transformation of the Passion Led Path, what is point A, and what is point B?"

And the answers flew out. No joke, the cards just went bowkapow here I am, here's the answer. The energy was almost impatient, like "Dude, you know the answer; you're just getting in your own way." And it was right! Do you want to know what the cards said? 

  • Card number one, point A: Stagantion. (Ooosh)
  • Card number two, Point B: Celebrate. (Yaaaay)Two oracle cards from mushroom spirit oracle deck showing card stagnation and celebrate


I mean, of course, duh! The tagline that first came to me a LONG time ago when I was running my first attempt at a business, Tinker Paper, has always been "Celebrating the magick of you", and to this day, that rings true in everything that I do. 

Why did I find this question of transformation so hard?

One of the big reasons I find the transformation question hard is that I hate the negative feel of identifying that people are struggling with something. But of course, that's true; we all struggle with something. And the people that I can truly help are those who are feeling stagnation within their life and passion led path. I have a real knack for helping people identify and work through their blocks. Troubleshooting and compassion have always been my wheelhouse. Working with your mind, body, and soul, not against it, is the key. We so often find ourselves imposing blocks where we should be reaching for our passion toolkits (this is something I can help you build).

This "self-blocking" is normal; our ego or protector selves are just trying to keep us safe. But, staying in a space of fear isn't a healthy path to follow. You can't ever say one size fits all because no one person is the same. This is why I find so much joy and my passion of working with and connecting with people on a deep level to help them move through their stagnation to being at the point of being able to celebrate themselves! From blegh to woohoo is the goal. And let me be clear, this is a journey, a journey of flow, of healing and of growth. There is no one and done, which is why it's so important to build and develop your passion toolkit.

As I type, I'm listening to someone I've been working with voice noting me about their latest achievement, and I can hear the shine in their voice of them connecting with their passion and achieving something wonderful with it. She's glowing, I'm glowing, the world is glowing with us. This glow has been achieved through compassionate coaching and the building of her passion toolkit on a 1:1 basis. She did the work, I just prodded, poked and nudged her there, with love and compassion of course. I guess being an annoying little sister has trained me perfectly for this role.

I would actually like to dig a little deeper into the "stagantion to celebrate" aspect of this, but the purpose of this blog is to loudly and proudly state my intentions. Talk/write about the pivot that's coming a little and be really quite transparent about my processes in doing so. Because this is all part of my own journey from stagnant to celebrate too.

 

If you'd like to join me on this journey, please sign up and join my email community. It would be a joy to have you there my lovely. And if the idea of building your own Passion Toolkit is tickling something within you, please do connect with me via the contact page or my email annie@minimoonarts.com so we can have a chitchat to see if we can work together on your own stagantion to celebration journey. 

 

With all my love, glimmers and gratitude

(PS if you're reading this I've stepped into my bravezone and hit go. What could you do that's a step into the bravezone? Or even just a toe dip? Let me know!
