The Blank Canvas
No one can prepare us for the unique space that presents itself (and what to even do with it), after any kind of change. There is no manual for how to live from our heart and it can feel very uncertain and unfamiliar.
Although this unknown space can feel scary, it is equally freeing… this is where the magic to create lies.
Finn and I call it, Our Blank Canvas.
After the big move, Finn and I took the entire fall and winter months, sitting in the discomfort of the unknown. Sifting through the pain body that surfaced as we adjusted and adapted to this new idea of a Blank Canvas.
We consciously knew we had intentionally initiated big changes, but didn’t know exactly what it would look like. Without relying on the systems and structures we had contributed to for so long, we quickly realized that we would now have to create these systems for ourselves.
This made us feel very overwhelmed in many moments.
How do we choose what to put our attention to (and when), when we already feel we have so many other hats that we are wearing!?!
Needless to say, over several months of divine waiting and observing, Finn and I gained some clarity. This gave us the confidence to start reflecting, manifesting, and vision boarding to ensure our intentions were loud and clear.
Only then could we began the process of organizing and implementing the several baby action steps towards our goals.
When we are divinely waiting can feel confusing, frustrating, and/or uncomfortable as we want to know what the future holds, or what our purpose is, and if we are on the right track… in that exact moment.
However, this moment in time is a critical part of our growth and healing process. It creates spaces to feel, heal, explore, venture, enjoy, rest, discover, reflect, process, slow down. And then, when the timing is right, clarity comes; always arriving when we are ready.
So here we are today, in the next phase of our action steps… getting the property ready for our 9 Week Summer Day Camp Program, including Swimmer 1 Swimming Lessons. Putting in driveways, swing sets, renovating sheds into cabins, and gardens to prepare our sacred land for our Campers next week.
To reflect back to all the action steps that were required to get this magnificent opportunity up and running makes our hearts sing.
We are so grateful for listening to our heart’s aspirations and putting them into action! And equally grateful knowing we get to share our services and love with the community.
