The 3 Pillars of the Vibrant Sensitive Life and Why I Started a MOVEMENT

I’ve known for awhile that I wanted to create something amazing and life-changing for you. Something that would allow you to express yourself, own your truth, and live your life with passion.

Of course, don’t we all want that? Passion, purpose, truth. Everyone talks about them all the time. Of course it would be amazing to make those things a part of your everyday life, wouldn’t it?

And if you’re a Highly Sensitive Person like me, those things are not only important to you but actually indispensable.

That’s why I was called to start a MOVEMENT. A movement that would not only help you make those lofty promises of passion and purpose more real but also honor the special ways that Highly Sensitive People like us function in the world.

One of my greatest gifts as an empath as well, is that I truly fall in love with people. I see the beauty and the power in just about everyone I meet. While this is a beautiful thing, sometimes it can be a little bit disheartening.

When I see the gifts in people, I also see far too many of them holding back. Not embracing themselves and living into who they really are every day. And that pains me to no end.  

I want to change that. This is the biggest reason why I created the Vibrant Sensitive Movement.

The Vibrant Sensitive Movement is all about embracing yourself fully and stepping into your gifts. It’s about owning your normal,your weirdness AND your magic. Embracing all of the things that make you who you are rather than hiding from them.

It’s only when you own you you are that you’ll be able to receive the vibrant life that you crave. And that is exactly what I want for you!

It took me awhile to arrive at that place myself, but I have found many ways to fully step into my true self. I have grown into the version of myself that I’ve always wanted to be, and my life has been magical ever since. And I want to show you how it’s possible for you, too!

So it was time for me to start a movement. And that’s just what I have done!

There are three pillars to the movement that I’m going to share with you right now. Three main components to living a life of openness, freedom, and truth that lets you express yourself as you truly are…and create the rich and beautiful life you desire.

Pillar #1: Deep Conscious Self-Care. You hear a lot about “self-care” these days. Funny how nobody really seems to give it a real definition, though, right? Usually the word brings up visions of massages, yoga classes, comforting cups of tea or meditation on the beach.

Now, don’t get me wrong--all of those things are wonderful! But if you’re more of a holistic person like I am, you’re going to want something more. And if you’re a Highly Sensitive Person, chances are you value passion, purpose, and alignment with your goals just as much as fleeting pleasures.

That’s where deep conscious self-care comes in. Deep conscious self-care is that it is about more creating a comfortable environment. It’s about aligning your actions, your thoughts, and your beliefs into serving the needs of your body, your mind, and your soul.

Sounds like a lot more fulfilling than taking an extra nap every day, right?

Deep conscious self-care is about listening. Tuning in to your soul and hearing what it is asking of you. It’s about connecting to your body and allowing it to tell you what it needs. It’s being the observer of the thoughts in your mind and allowing those thoughts to serve you rather than hold you back. (In other words, making the mind your ally instead of your enemy.)

When you bring your mind, body, and soul together and align them in a way that supports your entire being, you’re taking self-care to a whole new place. That is what I want for you, and that’s why the basis of the Vibrant Sensitive Movement is bringing you back to YOU. This might mean that you first need to go into a deep healing journey...isn't it exciting though?...That at the end of that journey...you will find...YOU!

Pillar #2: Speaking Your Truth. This is another phrase that gets thrown around a lot these days. But as a vibrant sensitive, being honest about who you are and what you need is paramount.

If you’re a Highly Sensitive Person, you’re probably are aware that you need plenty of time for rest, reflection, and renewal. You also probably have strong passions and values that define who you are.

Now, what amazes me is that on so many occasions, I’ll hear clients say that they were insulted when someone in their life didn’t step up for them and meet their needs. My first response is always the same. It’s something along the lines of,“Did you TELL them what you wanted?” In other words, are you telling the people in your life what matters most to you?

Even the most intuitive people in your life are not mind-readers. You have to tell people what you need by speaking your truth. When you speak your truth, you honor yourself by being honest about your needs. You’re sharing yourself and your values with the people in your life who matter to you the most.

It’s not about being demanding. It’s not about getting in everyone’s face and insisting on your own way all the time. All you have to do is simply speak your truth. And you can do that in a very respectful way.

To live a vibrant sensitive life, you need to know your boundaries and honor them. That is what speaking your truth is all about. It’s not about keeping people out so much as maintaining your own energy. When you’re able to keep those boundaries in place about what you need and how you interact with other people, your life flows with a lot more ease and grace.

Pillar #3: Unleashing Your Passion. Passion and purpose. Again, stuff that you hear about ALL the time. But the reason that you hear about them is that they really ARE that important to know. And to pursue.

But here’s the thing: purpose is such a big word. It can seem pretty daunting to try and figure out, can’t it?

I remember agonizing over it myself. I was constantly asking, “What is my purpose? What am I here to do? What if I never figure it out? What if I get it WRONG?”

What I’ve learned, though, is that unleashing your passions and living in your purpose doesn’t have to be a heart-wrenching, soul-crushing struggle. In fact, it’s a lot easier than you might think.

All you have to do is step into you.  

One of my mentors, Brian Johnson, puts it in a very simple way. Passion and purpose are simply living into the highest version of yourself….moment to moment. That’s all. Just one moment at a time. Being the best that you can be right here in the NOW.

So many times, the problem comes in when you start to overthink it all. You think you’ve found that passion or purpose, but then your mind steps in and starts asking questions like “Are you sure this is the right thing?”

But if you take it back to pillar #1 and you’re practicing deep conscious self-care, then you’re already asking your mind, body, and soul what they need in each moment. And from there, it’s a lot easier to act in purpose and passion in each moment that arises.

All you do is ask yourself what you need to be doing right now to connect to the best version of yourself. Not what you need to do next month, next week, or next year. Not what you did or did not do last week, last month, or last year. You take being the best you that you can be one moment at a time.

When you think about it that way, it’s actually so simple that you really can’t get it wrong!

As a vibrant sensitive, ask yourself this: when you are living your most ideal life, what are you doing? How does your life look? Allow yourself to  you start connecting to those feelings. And watch your passions reveal themselves.

Every time you do something that brings you joy, no matter how seemingly small it might be, your true self will show you the next step. And the next step is really all you need to know in order to keep going. It’s all about taking inspired action, one step at a time.

This is when the path starts unfolding for you. You learn more about one thing. Which leads you to your next big inspiration. And to the next one after that.

Maybe that initial spark isn’t the ultimate thing that you’ll wind up doing. But it sparked the creative fire. It lit up the path for you. And got you started on the creative journey that will open you up, unleash your passions, and show you who you are and what you want.  

That’s when the Universe, Source, and everything starts aligning in your favor.

Deep conscious self-care, speaking your truth, and unleashing your passion. That’s what the Vibrant Sensitive Movement is ALL about.

You have the most amazing gifts inside of you gifts that need to be honored, cherished, and shared. When you don’t step into the highest version of you, not only to you deny yourself the joy of full expression but also deny your gifts to the world.

I know that’s not what you want. I know that you want to actually LIVE the fully expressed life instead of just dream about it. You can start doing that in this very moment. And right here is where to start.
