Yes to this one too Lewann. Trust your gut, I have always believed it is our guide. I have refused to hear her signals at times and the outcome was horrific When I listen, which has finally become my usual, she serves me well. Lovely writing, from your heart and thank you for sharing.

Lewann, my dear friend! 🧡🤗 Once again, I enjoy reading another beautifully written piece by you! This paragraph is my favourite: "Witnessing our life fray at the seams, we began to notice the more we loosened our grips, the more ease we experienced. Our cookie-cutter life no longer served and it was up to us to reimagine an alternative—playing the newly dealt hand of cards the best we could, trusting our intuition would lead the way." As we go through our own journeys, many of us have come to the same conclusion that the universe gives us what we need - all we can do is to listen, learn and do our best. Sending you love! 🥰

I’m not in it in the same way that you are at all, no comparison, but I have been in an identity crisis for several years too. Finding an identity outside of my partner and kids after so many years of existing solely for them has been some work. I definitely needed to hear that “so often we try to play the hand we wish we had instead of the hand we’re dealt.” I spent way too much of my life trying to play the hand I wish I had. I’m still working on letting that go. Adding his book to my reading list. Thank you for sharing Lewann. 😊

I enjoy your posts so much. Thank you for another gem.

Also, I wholeheartedly feel you on how things get easier for some reason, as we losen the grip. x

Playing the hand we were dealt not the one we wish we had, wow!!! Yes so relatable.

What a beautiful article. And the little falcon playing is the sky made me smile remembering Leo’s little grin he’d give when he knew he’d touched something in our hearts.
