Today is 11/11, a date that many people, including myself, associate with setting intentions, making wishes, and imagining new possibilities. Whether it holds a spiritual meaning for you or it’s simply another November morning, it can be a lovely reminder to pause and think about what you hope to welcome into your life, what you want to manifest into your life.
Manifesting means picturing what you hope for, believing that it’s possible and welcoming that feeling into your life as though it’s already here, all the while taking steps to turn those dreams into your reality.
May this 11/11 portal be your invitation to get clear about your dreams, feel the joy of them as though they’re already here, and step forward believing that they are possible.
Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, many of us quietly pack away our dreams.
As children, we imagined without limits. We wanted to write books, travel the world, open bakeries, become artists, own little cottages by the sea, or simply live a life that felt meaningful and full. We believed anything was possible because no one had yet convinced us otherwise.
Then life happened.
Responsibilities arrived. Bills needed to be paid. Children needed to be raised. Careers demanded our attention. We learned to be practical, realistic, and responsible. Little by little, many of our dreams were placed on a shelf labeled “someday.”
But here’s what I’ve come to believe:
The dream never really dies.
It waits.
It waits through the busy years, the difficult years, the years when everyone else seems to need a piece of you. It waits patiently until one day you wake up and realize there is finally room in your life for you too.
Maybe your dream is to write a book or travel the world. Maybe it’s to learn to paint, start a business, take a dance class, or simply rediscover who you are when you’re not taking care of everyone else.
Whatever it is, age is not the reason to stop dreaming.
In many ways, growing older gives us something we didn’t have when we were young: wisdom. We know what matters and how quickly time passes. We understand that regret is often heavier than fear.
So if there’s still a dream tucked away in your heart, perhaps it’s there for a reason.
Maybe it isn’t too late.
Maybe this is the exact moment your dream has been waiting for.
My new book, “My Collective Soul: Things I Know Without Knowing Why” is officially released! I’m more than excited to have my book available to the public and so grateful for the journey that got me to this point!
This book is filled with intimate and personal stories of my experiences in life, including breast cancer. My hope is that it will make a a difference in someones’ life and ultimately make a difference in the world.
Thank you for all your love and support along my journey…
