10th March 2025 - Today's Rhythm
Hello, beautiful souls and welcome to today's contemplation. So what I'm sitting with this morning is rhythm, and when I say rhythm, I mean the rhythm of real life because I will be absolutely true to you. This morning started off in one of the worst ways a mother could possibly imagine with my 10-year-old runner doing an absolute run and disappearing. And honestly, it's one of those moms, you get this child disappearing is like heart in throat kind of moments. Luckily he turned up about an hour later at my mom's house. It's fine, he's all good, but this is the rhythm of real life, not necessarily your child disappearing, but things happening outside of your control that you can't anticipate or you can't grasp hold of things happening around you that you feel like you're not inviting in. Like I did not request this. This is not how my day was supposed to plan out, right?

This is the rhythm of motherhood, business, emotions, energy and embodiment. And so the contemplation really, I guess is because sometimes we want to feel radiant, magnetic, wildly alive. We want to show up in our business and instead we wake up maybe sometimes tired, maybe dysregulated, maybe stretched thin, or maybe something external happens to you has done to me today we have more tasks than we actually have time to complete. And a body that's whispering just pauses, I just want to sleep. I just want to rest. Whilst the to-do list of mind is shouting, like go or where the root center pressure to do something and achieve something is greater, then we are noticing the whispers from our internal authority. And so it's in those moments, it's easy to believe. We've kind of lost it. We've lost our magic, we've lost the alignment. We've perhaps even lost the leadership frequency.
(01:56)
We are here to hold. The truth is we haven't lost it. You haven't lost it. Beautiful soul, we've just fallen out of rhythm momentarily, maybe stepped into a slightly different timeline or stepped, stepped into a slightly different rhythm. And rhythm is something we can always turn to. Think of rhythm like the music, the fabric of life, the music that we move to. When the rhythm changes on a song that you are listening to, what do we do? We sit up, we pay attention. We either like it and we vibe to it, or we change the track to get back to a rhythm that we do like. We get to be in control of the song that's around us, and we get to be in control of that internal rhythm. Whilst we may not be able to control the external circumstances, the internal rhythm is something that we can always return to.

So your nervous system knows how to find center again. It is literally programmed, wired to help you smoothly move in through the different parts of your nervous system from fight, flight to rest and digest. Your body knows how to do that. It knows where your center is. Your energy knows how to re-sync with your body. In fact, your body's energy is literally always trying to bring you back to your pure, potent power and to your truth. And it's our resistance to that through our mental thoughts, through our conditioning that stops our energy from expanding and stops our auric field from really being in sync with our soul self and who we were always born to be. Your leadership doesn't require constant performance. This is one thing that I think that I definitely noticed in myself today questioning, and I definitely felt this come up for a few of my clients over the past few weeks, where it feels like we have to be constantly perfect in our home lives and have that represented on our social media accounts because we have to perform in a certain way for other people.

Your leadership as a business owner, as somebody who's leading out to impact others as a parent doesn't require you to be in a constant performative state. You get to be real. It just needs you to return to your inner resonance, the real alignment with your soul energy. So I invite you to ask, what rhythm are you honoring today? Are you trying to force a rhythm that isn't there or are you really coming back and tuning into your body? Not what's on your to-do list, not what's on your mind, but what is your body actually asking of you? What is your energy inviting you into what your leadership can look like? Even here, even now, even in the messy middle of life, it's all about how you are able to regulate yourself, how you are able to bring yourself back into alignment and how you are actually able to lead yourself in order to lead out.
(04:59)
Sometimes leadership is just sending the email. Sometimes it's actually just resting your body, and sometimes it's just simply taking a minute or two to regulate and nourish your nervous system before you take the next action step. And every one of those acts is part of the movement you are building. This is the limitless mom embodiment. This is the limitless mom. Energy is not about high performance every day. It's about high attunement. High attunement. You're not building a business in spite of your life. You're building a business that flows with your life, that honors your life, that allows you to really enjoy moment to moment or to be present in even the moments that are not so enjoyable like wine was today. So really, what's ever real for you today in your reality, whether it's alive in your field, whatever is really present with you right now, I invite you to move with it instead of against it.
(05:58)
That doesn't mean surrendering your emotional needs to it. That means being aware of what's happening, being present with what's happening. Take the time to process, to anchor to ground, to shift to rest, whatever it is you actually need, and adjust accordingly rather than just trying to keep pushing through. Let your rhythm return. Let your leadership deepen. Let your breath and body be the guide and the anchor, because every time you choose not to get swept up in the outside world, every time you choose to come back to your body and be in control of your body and to return to your place of alignment, you collapse the timeline. And each time you collapse that timeline, it gets quicker and easier. The next time your resilience builds, you strengthen your energy field, you strengthen your physical vessel, but you become more resilient as a parent and as a business owner, bring the future version of you closer to you simply by stepping into her.
(07:05)
Now, how would she handle this situation? How would she feel? Where would she find her? Grounding really come into who am I being not? What am I trying to control? What's going wrong? Who am I being? How do I choose to handle this? That's the power of rhythm, that's the power of alignment. It's the art of alignment, and that's what we are here building together and that's what I want to support you in. And so today's events are just a reminder of actually how far I've come by embodying everything that I teach you inside the academy and being able to handle having a neuro device child, having life circumstance happen, and still being able to show up for myself, for my family, and for my business and my clients from a place of regulation and empowerment. And that's where we are going for you two.
