There comes a time for every disciple on the path where they are asked by their own deeper being to take their stand.

For everyone, this brings up a sense of exhilaration, purpose, clarity, calling, and deep fear.

We’re in a time when the collective human heart needs to break out of the dream-spell we’re trapped in and roar a breath of fire that can tear through the etheric walls of the prison we are living in.

These times will expose the spiritual imposter in us all.

These times call for real transformation.

Gritty, down to the blood, guts, and bones transformation.

You’re here for this.

You took birth for this.

To be here for exactly this time of crisis and disintegration.

Purpose is a vibration. It is life force. It is the eros of your soul.

There are times and seasons in life where initiation comes for us. Initiation into a deeper layer of who we truly are.

One of the areas I consistently find myself working with leadership clients on is what I call the integrated killer. This is an aspect of what we could call both the dark masculine and feminine.

There is a part of the leadership path that I felt to share something on, as I have come across a few beings recently navigating its challenges and wondering if they are in the verge of breakthrough or breakdown.

My body carries many scars,
Scars born from knives, razors and cleavers I took to it,
In the first 22 years of my life,
I call them my tiger stripes.

We are humanity.

We are one being, 8 billion strong.

We are the Earth.

Real and true self-love is one of the most challenging and vulnerable topics for beings seeking to lead from their soul in my experience.

I see people's soul.

I think it's a capacity I've always had, and it has been strengthened through the teachings I’ve connected to, and the heartbreak and pain I've experienced on my own path, which has allowed me to feel and see others more deeply.

I am relentless,

I will stop at nothing,

As I strive for the taste of destiny that already exists upon my tongue,

The taste of freedom.

This current piece will focus on what happens once the leader has moved through the muddiest parts of their healing journey and come out on the other side.

There, they start to find the power of spirit.

This piece looks at the healing path that soul-based leaders go on.

My experience has been that the way life unfolds for beings who are in the process of stepping up into leading in the world from their soul purpose has certain shared features that everyone passes through.

Generally, it goes like this…

One way or another, my sense is that an outcome of our current situation is that coronavirus is going to flatten the leadership playing field and initiate a new era of leadership.

What do I mean by that?

In certain tribes in Africa, when an individual is being assessed by the elders as to whether they are destined to become a shaman, they are first asked to show their scars.

There are esoteric teachings that say that during the Second World War more human beings moved through a process of soul initiation than any other time in recorded history.

Leadership is its own path.

In its most authentic form, it is about will.

It is about a willingness.

A willingness to go first.
