Helen, how are you? So I thought id get personal today.
Last month, something cracked open inside me-makes sense its SPRING!
It started in a simple moment—a conversation with one of my pod sisters. She said, “The most important relationship I have is with myself… then my partner.”
I’ve heard that before.
But this time, something clicked.
As someone trained in woman-centered coaching, I’ve spent years guiding women back to their power, worth, and voice. I knew the relationship with Self was core—but this month, I felt it in a whole new way.
A deepening.
A remembering.
Just like last year around my birthday, when I was focused on healing my relationship with my mother, this year I was drawn into another layer—meeting and building a relationship with my internal family.
My parts showed up in full force:
-
Not-Enough Nora
-
Controlling Collette
-
Fearful Fiona
-
Overwhelm Olivia
-
Critical Chris
-
And many more.
They needed me. Not to fix them. But to see them, hear them, be with them.
I didn’t do it perfectly. Some days were messy. Holding sacred space for my clients while navigating this inner terrain stretched me beyond what I thought I could hold.
But what I noticed was this:
The more I stayed present, the more qualities of my Self began to lead the way— ✨ Curiosity instead of judgment ✨ Compassion instead of criticism ✨ Clarity, Calm, Confidence ✨ And moments of Creativity, Connectedness, and even Playfulness
And then came the question that always finds me when I’ve been “doing the work” for a while:
How do I bring in my spirituality?
Because healing can sometimes become another self-improvement trap. An endless loop. One more way to try to fix what was never broken.
So I returned to the spirituality which always reorients me to my highest truth:
I am a soul having a human experience. My Self Energy is my Soul. And my Soul is always connected to Source, always holding the grandest perspective of my life.
So where I’ve landed is this:
🌿 I don’t need to fix myself. 🌿 I am not broken. 🌿 I am becoming—more and more of the truth of who I am.
And in this season of becoming, I’m learning to trust Self Energy as my guide. To let her lead with presence, perspective, patience, and grace.
If you’ve found yourself caught in the loop of constant healing, maybe this is your invitation too.
Not to abandon your parts. But to hold them from a deeper place of truth.
The truth is you’re not broken. You are becoming. And you are already whole.
I’d love to hear: What parts of you are asking for love right now? Or—what qualities of Self are beginning to shine through?
Hit reply and share if you feel called. I’m listening.
With love and Self energy, Helen
