The Magic of Knowing Who You Are ✨
knowing who you are and your purpose, and the self-discovery tools i recommend.
I wholeheartedly believe there’s nothing more lonesome than not knowing who you are.
As someone who has navigated loss, I understand that losing sight of our true selves can be the loneliest place of all. Since 2021, my journey of self-discovery has been relentless, peeling back layers, tuning into my soul's remembrance, and unveiling new, purpose-driven versions of myself.
It hasn't been a walk in the park. There were days when the path of healing and unlearning seemed daunting. Let's face it, it's comfortable to stick to the familiar, maintaining the status quo. But the effort is SO worth it.
Understanding your identity and purpose is a catalyst for creativity, inspiration, and overall well-being. Your purpose isn't confined to a job title; it's a guiding principle for how you navigate life.
For me, my purpose revolves around deep connections and inspiring others through the simple act of living authentically. Every day, I channel this purpose not only into my work but also into how I spend my time.
Discovering my purpose wasn't a solo endeavor. I utilized various tools and collaborated with lightworkers and healers who guided me in remembering my soul-aligned purpose and why I'm here on this earth.
Now, I want to share my top 5 tools with you to help you uncover your soul's remembrance.
// Unlocking Your Human Design
Human Design is a powerful synthesis of astrology, the I Ching, Kabbalah, and Vedic philosophy. It categorizes individuals into four energy types—Manifestors, Generators, Projectors, and Reflectors—offering insights into how we exchange energy with the world.
This system delves into various aspects of your life, from decision-making and relationships to dominant chakras and life purpose. What sets Human Design apart is that it's not a mere quiz; it's a profound analysis based on your birth chart, considering the time, date, and place of your birth.
As a Generator, I resonate with the most prevalent energy type. Generators thrive when engaging in what genuinely excites them, relying on intuition as a guiding force. However, Generators often grapple with the challenge of saying "yes" when they should say "no" and investing 100% in situations that warrant less.
Understanding my Human Design type has been transformative. It has heightened my trust in intuition and ushered in a positive shift each time I honor my sacred "no's." For those curious about their chart and seeking a basic overview, explore the MyHumanDesign website by expert Jenna Zoe.

// Navigating Life Through Astrology
Just as with Human Design, delving into astrology has become a profound tool for self-discovery and understanding my role in the grand scheme of things. One of the pivotal books that guided me on this journey was Chani Nicholas's "You Were Born for This." Through this exploration, I gained invaluable insights into my houses, planets, and, notably, my ascendant sign—the driving force behind my life's motivations.
My rising sign, Libra, serves as the initiator of relationships, dedicated to seeking balance and harmony in every aspect of life. Libra's mission is to mend deficiencies and foster a sense of peace. The CHANI app, another treasure trove of astrological wisdom, enlightened me about my Midheaven, shaping my image and vocation, and my North Node, labeled as my "insatiable" pursuits. With a Leo Midheaven in the 11th house, my calling leans towards leadership and a deep desire to make a positive impact on the world. Meanwhile, my North Node in Aquarius, residing in the 5th house, directs me towards joy, pleasure, creative projects, and a love for the performance arts and children.
A delightful revelation came last year when, after planning my Sexual Wellness & Spiritual Health content for Settling Inn, the CHANI app affirmed that, due to my North Node placement, I inherently acknowledge that pleasure and joy are birthrights and may advocate for sexual or reproductive justice. Talking about knowing one’s self!
For those intrigued by astrology, I wholeheartedly recommend getting a reading with an Astrologer. While I provide a brief overview of the Sun, Moon, and Rising signs in my 1:1 coaching sessions, I encourage a deeper dive into your chart with experts like Amanda Faye, who offer personalized readings and forecasts.
// Cracking the Code: Numerology & Life Path Number
Your life path number serves as a compass, revealing your mission on this planet by deciphering the root number derived from your date of birth.
Take my birthday, for example, on November 3, 1989. Let's break it down:
Month (11): 1+1 = 2
Date (3): Remains a single digit = 3
Year (1989): 1+9+8+9 = 27, reduced to 2+7 = 9
Now, add the reduced month, date, and year numbers: 2+3+9 = 14. To get a single digit, further add 14, resulting in 1+4 = 5.
Those with a final number of 11 or 22, are Master Numbers, potent energies associated with profound learning and success, requiring no further reduction.
In my case, my Life Path number is 5. Representing adventurous free-thinkers, 5s embody a spirit of exploration. Each number carries distinct traits: 1s are natural leaders, 7s are perpetual students of the universe, and 9s are driven humanitarians. Delving into these numbers unveils fascinating insights, serving as a valuable reference point for shaping how you live your life.
// Unveiling Your Dharma and Inner Wisdom
Discovering Dharma Archetypes became a turning point for me when I listened to Sahara Rose, the founder of the Highest Self Institute, discussing sacred purpose on the Almost 30 podcast. Intrigued and inspired, I delved deeper into the world of Dharma Archetypes to unearth my own. Dharma, in essence, is your soul's purpose, and the 9 universal archetypes offer a framework guiding you toward alignment with that purpose. These archetypes include Artist, Warrior, Entrepreneur, Researcher, Activist, Visionary, Nurturer, Entertainer, and Teacher. It's essential to recognize that we all embody aspects of each archetype, but Sahara's Dharma Archetype quiz reveals the top 2 that resonate most with us. Mine are the Nurturer and the Entertainer.
It's worth noting that, similar to the Myers-Briggs and Enneagram tests, the answers to this quiz can evolve. Choose the response that genuinely resonates with you for each question.
// Tarot & Reiki: Nurturing Inner Trust
What better way to embark on self-discovery than through a Tarot or Reiki session, inviting you to journey within to uncover life's answers? Initially misconstrued as mere fortune-telling, Tarot transformed for me as I leaned into intuition and sought support from my spirit guides. It emerged as a powerful tool for self-discovery, a practice rooted in listening to and trusting our intuition. If you're seeking a reading, I highly recommend booking a session with Kyra Marie. My experiences with her readings have consistently left me in awe.
Reiki, another invaluable self-discovery tool, reinforces the idea that all answers reside within you. By setting intentions before a Reiki session, you'll find clarity unfolding during or after the session. Chakra healing within a Reiki session holds the transformative power to provide the clarity you seek. My Mindset Makeover offering is crafted for this purpose, combining insightful conversation and clearing before delving into the realms of Reiki.
// Holistic Life Coaching: Your Journey Awaits
Embracing holistic life coaching marked a pivotal transformation in my life. Many of the tools mentioned above were integral components of my year-long journey with my coach, encompassing deconditioning and the construction of a new, empowering timeline. These transformative experiences are now woven into my 6-month program, structured around three pillars: Release, Construct, and Settle In.
In the Release phase, we embark on the journey of unlearning and liberating ourselves from societal conditioning. Here, we uncover the authentic "you," tapping into intuition and aligning with your soul's purpose. Construct is the stage where we become architects of our lives. I provide the clay, and you shape it to create your vision of a perfect life. Finally, Settle In is where your creations become reality. You have the freedom to dwell in this space, gradually adapting to the new versions of yourself that emerge.
If this resonates with you, take the first step toward your transformative journey. Sign up here for a Discovery Call with me, and let's explore the possibilities together.
