A beautiful poem by Alicia McDonnell and her experience of Mastering Your Power
Do you feel shackled by the hour?
No room or soil left to flower.
Is your identity your own?
Or a mask in survival mode?
Who’s sat there on your shoulder?
Whispering doubt, over and over?
Oh, I see this is your Gremlin. Don’t worry we’ll try to befriend them.
It’s all a part of you, but what it’s saying may not be true.
Limiting beliefs can become engrained.
Systems of loyalty may constrain.
But we’ll go on this adventure together.
Pack your identity, memories, and umbrella.
I’ll bring my camera and some questions; we’ll need a wide angle, to prompt reflections.
Let’s explore the full picture, because each colour of our tapestry makes us richer.
But equally our experiences can skew perceptions, or is that society reflecting tensions?
But let’s take this walk together for a while, we’ll see what comes up, mile by mile.
This is for you and at your pace.
I’m just here to empower and create a safe space.
So if you’re ready, let’s start with an hour?
Come with me and we’ll master your power….
