I had a vision of a phoenix rising over a year ago at a Dr. Joe Dispenza workshop in Austin. At this time I had no idea how this would inspire me or where it would lead me.
I chose to quit my job at the end of the school year in 2015 with no other job lined up. That part was somewhat easy because I had done it two years prior. The part that was new was stepping into owning being on a sabbatical.
I had no idea why I was being lead to do this I just knew my soul needed it. As I have just completed a full year of being on a sabbatical that phoenix has lead me many times through the dark night of the soul. This time has been a precious time in my life where I allowed life to catch up with me. To really be in all that I have done, to shed old beliefs on a cellular level, and step into bigger better versions of me day after day. So I say thank you dear phoenix for leading the way.

Phoenix Rising
The strength and courage it has taken me has impressed even me,
Just when I thought I had cried the last tear, three more would appear and slide down my cheek,
Rest endlessly on my chin and drip down to my chest,
Open heart I whispered to myself;
Grateful, thankful, determined;
Just as the phoenix rises,
So do I,
So do I.
Stronger, wiser, more confident, and loving;
Simply soaring to higher heights of heaven,
Loving the entire adventure,
despite the visible rapids below.
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you, Leah!
