I am a Southern California (So.Cal.) girl at heart. Yes, i said it--it's true. I recently did a healing that unveiled this fact. I learned that I had to hide this part of me in order to be accepted in different circles. I would share in the stereo-types and make fun of myself to please others. There are several jokes and one of the lies I spread is that there aren't spiritual people in L.A. This really hit home because it was a huge way for me to keep myself from wanting to live in Southern California...though I really love the place. I got tired of hearing all the negative crap about how Californians "really" are--ESPECIALLY those from L.A. Saying that I'm from the San Francisco area (as that is where I attended graduate school) is more acceptable--even within the state of California. However, to the rest of the country, anyone from California is a whack-a-doodle (technical term).

I had to suppress, hide and deny that L.A. rocks and it's a core piece of who I am. This issue came up to heal during a class on creating my future when we were looking at money beliefs that are in the way of our success. Not wanting a part of L.A. stands in the way of wanting fame or success on any level. I had to pretend that I didn't want this (identifying as a So.Cal. woman) so that it wouldn't be taken away. I grew up believing that if I said I wanted something it would somehow vanish.

Guess what I discovered in the process of this self-discovery/healing: the people who head to L.A. want to live their dream and they know the people who will help them are centered in L.A. This is not a bad thing, but group consciousness would have us believe something else. I am done buying into this B.S. (belief system!). It is limited, out-dated and doesn't serve spiritual evolution.

I am ready to be the rock star that I am meant to be--and even, CALLED to be. Stars represent heavenly knowledge, especially in times of darkness. I am ready to rock this knowledge in order to spread light to those who need it. I have been there and done that through times of darkness and now it's time for me to shine in order for others to shine.
