23 SEP. 2020 · In this episode, I talk about why healing is so important, especially for women writers of color. // Change is inevitable. It is the only thing constant. We change even when we don't want to, even when we resist it, even when we think we're staying in place. // A few people may not know what their life purpose is that's why they take the part of discovering what their purpose is and what is not. // Action is information. Action can help you start to uncover the thing that you want to understand. // Each person is different. Some can adapt to their environment easily. But some are not. They prefer small steps to emerge their life purpose. // Nobody knows what the future holds. No one knows how the future is going to unfold. Nobody does. The only thing we should do is, Be Present right now. // Most women, particularly women of color, face challenges from sexism to racism. Their effort is most likely being rejected, unshared, unpublicized, unheard, and unseen. They are discouraged to share whatever story they have. // As you go along with this journey, start to build your trust in yourself. The trust that is within you. The trust that has been lost, that has been covered with several layers of illusion. // The Heal to Power Blueprint, a tool designed for healing specifically for women writers of color. It is a tool to access our own inner knowing, our own modes of healing. The world will be so much better with it. // You don't have to play the victim. The people who have power over us are there because we gave them our power. if we can strengthen our nervous system, if we can build resilience, if we can heal from our traumas, we can stop giving our power away, we can step into our own power, and share our voices and stories. // Today's poems: "All the talents of God" by Hafiz and "Patience" by Ross Gay // Sign up for my free workshop for women writers of color, Healing Magic, Saturday, 9/26 @ 12pm ET at https://surygian.com/healing-trauma-for-wocs-free-workshop
