Your Creative Sparks:
- We are all a "STORY IN MOTION". Are you living the story you are MEANT to live?
- Just as you can CHANGE YOUR ENERGY signature, you can CHANGE YOUR STORY.
- The QUICKEST PATH to the change you want is to GET ON BOARD with someone who has done it already.
How many years have you spent conforming? To your parents' wishes; to societal norms? What childhood dreams did you leave behind when life took over and you became "responsible"? That's where your magic lives! Lobsterbird explores the Mayan ruins of Coba with Stephanie McAuliffe, pausing under a thatched roof structure, peering into a giant weathered stone that bears the remnants of symbols. Release the remnants of your old story and enter this portal to the unknown, where fascination springs to life again.
Your Travelogue
- Stephanie talks about her arc of becoming a healer. As a young girl, she was fascinated with witchcraft and magic, but she put that away in order to conform. She went to work on Wall Street for 27 years. At the height of her career, she was brought to her knees, and it turned out to be one of her greatest gifts. It caused her to dissect her life, to look at her path and her patterns. Now she has stepped into energy work, and remembered the fascination she had at 10 years old. [4:17]
- We are all energy, and we are attracting what we are putting out. That's what witchcraft was about hundreds of years ago – setting an intention and working with mother earth and herbs and nature to manifest what we are intending. We are going through a shift now, to once again become more aligned with the earth and our magical powers. [8:12]
- Stephanie is the fourth generation of women in her family who have been affected by living with an alcoholic. Her book, "Message in the Bottle" is her first gift to the world. It documents part of her story, with tools and techniques to come to a place of peace. It goes beyond Al-Anon and beyond therapy, which in many ways keep us energetically connected to our old story. Stephanie's mission is helping women disconnect from that old story, and release the old energy, so they can open up to the new. [9:22]
- Be brave enough to look at shadow. Alcoholism is suppressed shadow. Trying to deny it makes it come up in excruciating ways. But what's the gift? How can you incorporate this knowledge with wisdom? Go from the dark spell to the glorious magic of creation. What you resist persists. The shadow will always be behind you until you face it. [12:20]
- 53% of us have been affected by a loved one's alcohol dependency. It is safe to give a voice to your story. Let's break the shame and isolation that comes with the stigma of having grown up in a house or having loved someone drinks too much. That's the way we free ourselves. [14:20]
