Soul Mama On Purpose

audrie dawn - soul mama on purpose

A few years ago I found myself

feeling alone and disconnected

from my truth

I was in a tunnel of darkness

and the only way out was through

So I asked myself...

WHAT. ARE. YOU. TRULY. HUNGRY.

FOR??....

And all of a sudden...

My eyes welled up with tears

As I finally realized

that what I was truly hungry for..

Was a deep connection

to my SOUL PURPOSE

And that only I had the power

to give that to myself

But there was a part of me

that was afraid

Because I was bullied

when I was a little girl

and it left me with an open wound

I was screaming for connection

Yet terrified of rejection

But despite my fear

I found the courage

to sit in the seat of my soul

And breath into the pain

of a hurt little girl

who was crying out for love

and crying out for help

I wanted her to know...

That she was worthy of feeling loved, safe and that she was part of something bigger than herself

I wanted her to know that she mattered

I was determined to heal the worts

and clear the weeds

So she could plant new seeds

with mindful intention

So every morning I gave her a hug

I gazed into her eyes

As I looked into the mirror

And said ...” I love you”

I felt like I was swimming

in a vast blue ocean

of infinite possibilities

Because when I saw her reflection starring back at me

with stars of hope

and galaxies of faith

Nothing else mattered...

Hand in Hand

Heart to Heart

She and I embarked

on A Journey Home to Self

SELF LOVE

SELF ACCEPTANCE

and I AM ENOUGH!!

I began to bathe her with new beliefs

as she began to reclaim her power

That’s when I realized...

As a woman and once a little girl,

I had given my power away

before I knew I had it!!

So I nurtured her with song

and shifted her frequency

I embraced her with laughter

and raised her vibration

I asked her what she needed

so she felt valued

I bought her flowers

and I took her on dates

Together she and I

skipped down the road less traveled

smiling from ear to ear

And then she shouted

I AM HUNGRY TO BE FREE!!

I want a meal and not a crumb

And just like that,

a fierce whisper echoed in my heart

as a veil of peace

draped over my naked soul...

And I said...

It is my divine birthright

to have my needs met

And I want relationships

where respect is the foundation

of connection

And then I said...

I am hungry for relationships

that don't dim my radiant light

I am hungry to see others unwrap

my gifts as if they were their own

I want to be loved and appreciated

I want to be adored for my

REAL. RAW. ORGANIC. TRUTH!!

And all of a sudden...

I wasn’t afraid to be alone anymore

Because I didn’t need validation

and approval from anyone but myself

Because no one can define me

but me

And that’s when I was 100% certain

that I am capable of taking care of myself

God has a divine plan for everyone

and mine was to mend my life!!

So never under estimate the power

of a little girl with

A. B.I.G. S.O.U.L. P.U.R.P.O.S.E.
