Celebrate Who You Are!

Hello! Welcome to my blog. My name is Angie and I am the creator of Sacred Soul Botanicals. I started this company because I wanted to share my tea blends and to help others connect with their higher self.

A little about me, I am a mom, an empath and have always been very intuitive. A few years ago I had my dark night of the soul. I lost my job and my self-confidence was crushed. I searched to find another job, but not much was out there at the time. I had always wanted to get my real estate license so I decided it was the perfect opportunity. I passed my exam on the first try and was off and running!

The company I work for has the best culture. The people there are so nice and very welcoming. Coworkers would always provide support whenever you needed it. Part of our company culture are nine daily steps. The first, say your gratitude for the day; second, write your affirmations; followed by seven other steps. We are encouraged to do this every day. I started every day with gratitude and wrote down my affirmations. I even started incorporating it at home with my family. We talk about our days and say our gratitude at the dinner table. This practice changed me. My entire outlook changed. I went from being negative and at one of my lowest points to living in a state of gratitude. I have always believed that everything happens for a reason and knew losing my job was the best thing to ever happen to me!

Fast forward to over a year ago, I started to feel like there was more out there for me and on a hunt to find my purpose in life. I felt lost. My soul was craving more! I started listening to several spiritual podcasts. I did not know what to do or where to turn. My soul just craved more and more. One of the podcasts introduced me to a book written by Mary Ann DiMarco titled Medium Mentor. The most significant line in her book was “Spirit speaks in your own voice.” After reading those words, that is when it hit me. I just heard the voice a few days prior to reading the book. It spoke very loudly to me to get my attention during a walk one day. Then I knew right away Spirit has been talking to me my whole life. I have ALWAYS heard the voice. I look back on several occasions and now know, without a doubt, it was always Spirit guiding me.

This last year has been quite a journey. I have really worked on myself and done a lot of soul searching and self-healing. I became attuned to Reiki I and II and have been reading Tarot daily. These practices have opened me up even more. I began to see signs everywhere I looked; specific songs on the radio, crystals in my path, and repeating numbers patterns. Every time I asked for a sign to gain clarity it would appear.

My spirit guides have been pushing me to put myself out there. I was reluctant to tell anyone. How do you tell others what has been going on in your life? Oh hey, don’t mind me I’m just over hear talking to my spirit guides. I am clairaudient. I hear spirit guides, angels and sometimes even others who have passed. People are going to think I am crazy! What are they going to say about me? Will I lose my friends? Family? What about my kids? How will it affect them? The list goes on and on. I have spent most of my life as a people pleaser and always cared what others thought of me. Holding back and hiding who I really am. But, the more I healed myself, the more I started to care less and less of what others thought of me. However, revealing my true self? This has been THE HARDEST part. I kept everything to myself up until this point and was afraid to tell anyone. I finally got the courage to tell my husband and my closest friends. After I did, they were so supportive! I can’t believe I waited so long. Why was I so scared? It felt great to share what I have been going through!

So here I am again, being led to share my story with the world and stepping off an even bigger cliff. To put myself out there again. It has taken me over a year of self-healing and shadow work to get the courage to write this blog. To surrender. To let go of the fear of judgement. And for the first time I am sharing this with the world. This has been a very emotional journey and a monumental step for me because I am done leading two lives. As of today, I am stepping into my true authentic self. Unbecoming everything I have been conditioned to believe and becoming my one true self. No more hiding who I am. I know there will be those individuals who do not understand, who will judge me and that is ok. Other people’s thoughts and opinions are about them, not me. I love who I am and I am enough.

I share this because for those of you in similar situations - I want to let you know you are not alone on this journey! There are so many resources out there to help you. Everyone has the capability to connect with Spirit. We all have access to God/Source energy and everyone’s journey is different. Reach out if you need help or guidance. I encourage you to follow your heart, share your stories with others and most importantly, never hide who you are. Shine your light for the world to see!

 

With love and light,

Angie
