Here's what power feels like

A story of self-awareness

Power feels like waking in the morning feeling tired.

Getting up. Doing the kids and pets routine, if you have them. Tending to details of your business. Sharing your gifts with your clients.

Power feels like the aches and pains of witnessing others and noticing that it seems easier for them. Lighter for them. More effortless for them.

Power feels like the heaviness of getting going. It feels like self-doubt and insecurity because you feel how heavy and hard it is for you. Power feels like wondering what is wrong with you.

Power feels like determination and perseverance. Waking each day, loving your family and friends, feeling the heavy and hard and trusting there is light and ease.

It feels like enjoying life, treasuring each moment.

Power feels like finding a way to do the work you love, even when it is different and unusual. It feels like the joy of guiding and witnessing another finding their joy.

Power feels like curling up in a ball in tears weary of the heavy, feeling not-enough.

Power is getting back up and taking a step, noticing it feels lighter. Turning to find a boulder has rolled off your shoulders.

Power feels like going to bed, getting up and doing the routine again feeling lighter and easier.

Power feels like doing the work you love, transforming lives, seeing the difference you make and feeling self-doubt and insecurity. And since it feels lighter now, it feels like doing more and more.

Power feels like having desires and looking in your wallet and noticing the more is not there.

Power feels like sitting down, shedding tears and wondering how it can feel so heavy, even now that the boulder has rolled off your shoulders.

Power feels like standing up and noticing you were sitting on the boulder that you’ve been rolling along beside you.

Power is… leaving the boulder behind and going to bed with the fear of life without the boulder.

Power is waking in the morning with the fear, and choosing to live your life knowing you are powerful.
