The Storm, the Light & the Tender Spark: A Story of a Mom Rising

Weekly Energy Weaving for June 16-22, 2025

Jenna sat across from me, her breath caught in her chest, eyes rimmed with exhaustion and a flicker of hope. The kind of woman who carried galaxies in her bones, but who’d spent the last decade giving her magic away in cups of warm milk, bedtime stories, and school pickups.

“I just… I don’t feel like her, you know? The version of me who runs this thriving, beautiful healing business. She feels so far away. And I’m scared I’m just pretending. What if I’m not actually meant to do this?”

This, I’d heard before. And not just from clients—but from myself, many years ago.

So I lit a candle, pulled a few cards, and took a deep breath.

“The energy this week is stormy,” I told her gently, showing her the first card — The Perfect Storm: The Courage to Step Into Life.

“Sometimes, the chaos comes because you're ready—not because you're wrong.”

Her shoulders relaxed a little. “What do you mean?”

“You're not lost, Jenna. You're in the void between identities. You're not the stay-at-home mom you once were, and you’re not yet fully the embodied entrepreneur you see in your dreams. That tension? That’s transformation.”

She nodded slowly, tears glinting in her lashes.

🔮 The Initiation of Identity

I asked her to close her eyes. “Feel into the identity you’re afraid to claim. The one who holds space for clients. Who teaches. Who writes. Who receives money with joy. Who trusts her voice.”

“She feels so big,” Jenna whispered.

“That’s because she’s you, fully remembered. But you’re not becoming her—you’re returning to her.”

I guided her through a visualization: a sacred temple within, pulsing with her essence. She stepped into it slowly, barefoot and unsure, but curious.

“I see her. She’s calm. She’s radiant. She’s not in a rush,” she said, voice cracking.

“She’s not hustling to prove. She’s just… being.”

“Exactly,” I smiled. “She’s grounded. Not perfect. She’s holding a wand of fire in one hand—and a soft rose in the other.”

Then, I placed the second card in front of her: 7 of Wands. “This card is about standing your ground, protecting your light, and owning your visibility. Not because you’re fearless, but because the world needs what you have.”

Jenna laughed through her tears. “I’ve been so afraid of being seen as a fraud… I forgot the reason I wanted to do this in the first place.”

“What was the reason?”

She paused. “To help women like me. The ones who forgot they were magic.”

I reached for the third card: Softly, Softly, the Tender Touch. “Here’s the part most women like us skip,” I said. “You can’t push your way into your next identity. You have to soften into her. Invite her in.”

Her breath deepened. “That’s what’s missing. I’ve been trying to become her by force. By doing more. But I don’t feel like her because I don’t believe I deserve to be her.”

“Exactly. You can’t embody your vision if you don’t believe you’re worthy of it.”

We sat in silence for a moment. The candle flickered.

Then I showed her the last card: Gracious Receptivity.

“This week,” I told her, “is about receiving the new version of yourself—not chasing her. She’s already here, whispering in your intuition, urging you to trust. Can you meet her halfway?”

🌹 The Healing Path Forward

Jenna looked at me like the storm in her heart had found a quiet shore. “Okay,” she whispered. “What do I do now?”

Here’s what I gave her—and what I give to you, dear reader, if you’ve ever stood in Jenna’s shoes:

✨ 1. Write a Letter from Your Future Self

Channel the version of you who already lives the life you desire. Let her tell you what she knows, what she remembers, what she forgives. Let her love you through the fear.

✨ 2. Claim One Bold Action This Week

Whether it’s announcing a new offer, reaching out to a potential client, or simply updating your bio—do one thing that her version of you would do. Let it anchor the shift.

✨ 3. Create a "Tender Touch" Practice

Each morning, place your hands over your heart. Whisper: “I am safe to be seen. I am worthy of success. I receive with grace.” Let your nervous system feel the softness of this truth.

✨ 4. Practice Gracious Receptivity

Say thank you when someone compliments you. Say yes when support is offered. Trust that receiving doesn’t diminish your power—it fuels it.

✨ 5. Book Support When Needed

Whether it’s a card reading, Reiki session, or energy alignment—get help staying centered in your magic. You don’t have to do it alone.

Jenna left our session lighter. Her face glowed—not with false confidence, but with a deeper knowing. She wasn’t faking it. She was finally feeling it. And that made all the difference.

A few weeks later, she sent me an email:

“I just had my first paid session. I was nervous, but I remembered her—my future self—and I let her lead. Thank you. I finally believe I’m not behind. I’m right on time.”

And so are you.

🌀 Feeling the call to step into your next chapter with clarity and courage?

Let’s co-create the version of you who already exists—just waiting to be received.
