Have you ever found in life, that your gratitude increases for something you have either lost or temporarily lost?
Whilst, it is not inevitable that our gratitude increases after loss and neither is it required, it is true when we have gone through a life-changing experience, our gratitude can increase.
We may have experienced – the end of a relationship; the loss of a job; the death of a loved one or serious illness and the experience could include so many more examples.
At the time of our loss, we may not ever feel that we can regain gratitude. In many circumstances the loss is too deep and painful to see a way beyond that current experience.
Here, I share my voice of love and experience of loss, with and for you. You can get through your current experience and not only can you survive but you can smash through your OWN glass ceiling and thrive IN love.
Having experienced throat cancer; the death of my father; marriage breakdown; family estrangement; religious judgement and isolation (all at the same time), it has profoundly shaped my viewpoint on my life and very importantly the lives of others. On a couple of occasions around the time between the year 2008 and 2010, I was very close to ending my own life. A lost voice, a perceived burden on others, unworthy and without any value, I was totally lost.
However, the reason for me sharing with you this dark chapter of my life, is not to dwell on the past, it is to highlight, through my life experiences (including homelessness), that there IS light. In fact, not only is there light WE are the light.
Through deep personal inner soul work (this is something I now practice every day) and aligning with incredibly creative and encouraging souls, my life is not only light and brighter but I am now using the light source to shine more for others.
This is where I draw your attention again to the theme of this message:
“Grateful I’m ALIVE, Grateful to Perform LIVE”.
The switch of divine illumination has well and truly flicked ON. From having no voice and no light, to a voice for others and a light of life. I am truly grateful for the NOW and I am deeply grateful to share opportunities to creatively place courage and love into YOUR beautiful heart.
This life that I share has opened up PHENOMENAL connections with beautiful souls all over the WORLD. Together, we have created a body of work that in a few days’ time will be previewed EXCLUSIVELY LIVE at an INCREDIBLE EVENT.
Join me IN GRATITUDE and LOVE this coming Friday July 9th 2021 for an 8pm (uk time) start.
