When my soul broke through and I discovered my mission
by Lucy Schaaphok
The drive I have comes from my soul, which put me in this life with a certain mission.
In 2002, I ran into the wall after the birth of my daughter. I had enjoyed the two years alone with my son and the birth of my daughter, but my soul began knocking on the door.
It also became time for other things I also had to do in my life. It wasn’t nice at first that she broke through because there was chaos in me and I didn’t realize that it was my soul causing it.
At first I just felt discomfort and struggled with my guilt because surely I had such beautiful and healthy children that I was allowed to care for full-time?
In my struggle I encountered all kinds of things; my self-image which was not really rosy, my fear of the unknown, my anger because I could not handle certain situations, the loss of my parents just before the birth of my son.
It was war inside me. A civil war, so to speak, and the innocent, loving parts in myself were much overshadowed by the warriors, who operated mostly from their negativity.
Of course the love for my former husband and my children was there and I did enjoy them, but something had to be done. My soul wanted to break through, but I still had no idea of what was coming.
I saved up my milk (I fed both children for over 2 years each), my ex-husband took time off and I went to London for a week of training. There I found contact with my soul again. Little by little she gained more space and little by little I began to become more balanced.
When I returned, I knew I had to set up an Everywoman school for my children. My pioneering spirit had awakened. I did many other workshops, trainings and courses after that, but with SoulCollage® everything came together.
I discovered how to build my blueprint, how to really allow information from my deepest being to surface and give me information for support and guidance on my path.
This blueprint allowed me to physically envision what it all looked like and allowed more and more pieces to become visible within myself. I also saw how all of that is connected to each other.
I began to experience inner leadership from within. Without realizing it. It happened simply by trusting the process. And I am far from finished.
My blueprint expands and expands. My potential expands more and more and I am guided by my soul, my deepest self, which reflects itself in all those aspects that I am in this life. She shines her light through all that I am. Nothing excepted.
