Follow the path that lights you up
without burning out or burning it all down.
Joy and energy pours out of you, and people respond to that.
People remember you.
And whether it’s family, friends, colleagues, clients — you are so grateful for them and their appreciation when it comes.
- “wow, everytime I talk to you, you have a way of making me feel so much more calm and grounded. Thank you.”
- “You’re amazing! I love the way you see things so differently.”
- “I always feel more positive when you’re around. I’m so glad our paths crossed and I have you in my life”
- “Thank you for all you do in creating space for fun and connection”
But what they don’t see is the secret tears of helpless frustration you cry behind closed doors –
in the shower after you’ve lost it and screamed at your partner or your children;
curled up on your bed at the end of an exhausting day holding it together at work or with your parents;
lying on the floor of your living room in despair and bewilderment when life feels overwhelming.
For all the love you put out into the world, into every single thing you do, and for all the goodness and kindness that comes back to you, you can’t seem to feel and enjoy any of it.
Because there is something critical missing, something you know you should be doing but you just can’t put your finger on it, no matter how hard you try.
And you’ve tried doing so many things, searching, always searching for what it is that feels true and right for you.
You’ve studied – again and again – so many years, so many qualifications.
You’ve fallen into and out of relationships.
You’ve walked into and out of jobs.
You’ve travelled the world, and explored your neighbourhood.
You’ve eaten healthy and unhealthy and everywhere in between.
You’ve dabbled with drinking, smoking and popping.
You’ve run and skipped and jumped and thrown and caught and yogaed and danced and lifted and dropped and pushed and pulled and hit and kicked.
Maybe you’ve had children of your own, and now they’re growing up and away from you.
Either way –
You still don’t know what you want to be when you grow up.
Secretly, you are desperate – lost and scared.
Very few people around you, even the closest, have any inkling of your desperation.
Nobody truly understands the depth of it
– even you are afraid to look into the void again, because you are absolutely out of options, despite your demonstrated history of creativity, active engagement and problem solving brilliance.
So here’s the truth.
You were a gifted child. You’re a smart, successful and sensitive adult.
The reason you’re screamingly unsatisfied is because you’re aware enough to know that you’ve settled for less than the full expression of your unique potential.
You are NOT the problem here >
The commodity driven Western world is bound by its own white colonial capitalist logic to amplify the bulge at the middle of the consumer curve – not to seek out and uplift extraordinary outliers.
There are no obvious instructions on where to go, how to proceed, when you exist at the outer edge of the mainstream. You’re on your own, staring out into infinite darkness.
When you look around for the lights, there is an inexorable drift and drag back toward the high profile, safe bet average.
All your life you have been trapped in the thrall of the tawdry.
adjective
showy but cheap and of poor quality.
“tawdry jewellery”
Which is devastatingly paradoxical, when you basically generate your own gravity with your genuine depth of presence and intense aliveness.
Settler society doesn’t acknowledge that a kind and thoughful character like yours can even exist.
A character whose every choice and action is carefully considered and intended for the highest good of all.
You come to doubt your own value, because you don’t see yourself reflected anywhere.
You’re caught in an exhausting mental emotional loop between the impenetrable blankness of the unknown and the unbearable disappointment of the known.
So, how do you break the enchantment?
By getting real.
Close your eyes and move towards the diamonds in the darkness.
It’s time to experience the luminous power of living from your unarguable personal truth
Your path to satisfaction – to escaping the false security of mediocrity – is to learn two things
- To think for yourself, and redefine the terms of your engagement with the world.
- To know and trust what you really want, and to follow that with humility and devotion.
I’m here to guide you to do exactly that.

Rachael’s facilitation capacity goes deeper than just being grounded. She sat with me in the murky parts of my being, maintaining an unwavering responsiveness with me, a very deep listening.
The transformation I have experienced since working with Rachael has been subtle, sustainable and joyful. There is now a daily effortless sense of knowing who I am.
I just get to be me all of the time now!
I absolutely recommend weaving some magic with Rachael. You will come to know all of who you are.
