Lesley is just simply one powerful woman, on a mission to help, support and give as much of herself to others as is needed. She has walked a big deep path and has surfaced stronger and softer than ever. She knows what she wants and just does it. We felt inspired and motivated after this podcast. It's about getting on with it, with no excuses but a whole lot of love and care interwoven through it.
This is a poem that we found on Lesley's Instagram account, it captures her so beautifully.
The storm and I rolled in together to the sweat lodge. The sky poured open as we sat through four rounds of ceremony.
Deep listening to our truth
My truth
as it poured out of my body
There is no practice or preparation
The soul speaks
Warmed by the heat of transformation
Held in complete darkness
Naked in the rain of your own being
Heeding the sounds of nature
and their messages
Soothing rumbles of thunder,
Awakening cracks of lightening
Kookaburras cackling at the absurdity of it all
Sweetened by sprinkles of sandalwood,
singeing on the hot rocks
It was a beautifully transcendent experience. When all was done the storm had passed leaving me in peaceful willingness of complete surrender…
To all that is and all that is not. And so it is. Aho
