You ever looked back on what you wanted to be as a kid, and realize you knew what you wanted to be, but just didn't have the words?
So it ended up being "wrong" but it wasn't?
I said I wanted to be a doctor, and as soon as I learned about the medical field I said "fuck,—
that's definitely not for me."
Which resulted in feeling super lost for a long time. I never gave it a chance because I knew at my core going into the medical field was just not right.

I never wanted to be a doctor, but I KNEW I was a Healer.
I just didn't have the words—
I didn't have the understanding of different ways to heal.

You see, to a child, a "Doctor" is THEE Healer Archetype, if you ask a child who knows their desire in this lifetime is to heal others, that's what they'll tell you.
Their answer is limited to their perception and what—
they've been shown. When asked as a child what I wanted to be, I didn't know about any alternative ways to heal.

I knew Doctors healed, and I knew I wanted to heal. It was that simple. Until I realized that I didn't want to do what doctors do. Unfortunately I wasn't shown that—
there was so much more to healing others. So many more components to a being than the physical.

I didn't have the experience and knowledge that I do now. It wasn't until recently I realized my healing took a whole different form, and I've actually been healing my whole life—
whether I realized it or not.

The healer can heal in so many ways. The healer can be the masseuse, the therapist, the chef, the cab driver who knows just what to say, the barista with a little extra juju in their drinks.

It's also the Spiritual healer that utilizes—
different healing modalities to aid others on their path.
That's where I fit in.
I'm growing into it and I'm learning so much. There is so much in store for me in this path as well.
I'm so grateful that I've found that for myself. I can heal with Reiki, Dream Interpretations—
and all of the modalities I will come to know and nurture.

I can be the Guide that I knew I was as a child, when the desires of my Spirit were SO CLEAR TO ME.

What did you express that you wanted to be? Was it for lack of a better word?—
I urge you to speak to your inner child. They know so much.
They were so tapped in.

Look back on that "dream job" you may have given up on and find out what you meant.
Use your current perspective and your lifetime of experiences.

You may just stumble upon your purpose. 🧚🏾‍♂️
