This morning I felt a knowing ripple through every cell of my being before finally settling in my mind. This leg of my Soulflower journey is over.
I guess I haven’t wanted to admit that to myself, let alone share it out loud, but it is the truth. My truth.
I can feel Dandelion’s presence.
“Nothing is permanent," she says. “No thing.”
I have been gripping tightly. After all I know I have created and grown something beautiful and meaningful and I should want to keep tending to it right? Help it continue to grow? But the more I feel into this the more I know this is an ego driven response and not the guidance of my heart.
Soulflower was always a wish, an external manifestation of my internal journey of self discovery and spiritual growth. I went searching for my joy, my enoughness and I found it. It lies within my own heart. It lies within my most intimate family relationships and friendships. It lies within my garden and the flowers and plants that I love so dearly. That is enough. I am enough.
Sharing our gifts is not necessarily an outward or physical expression but more of a state of being we emanate when we align with and are fully present with our own hearts. This is the vibration we ripple out to the whole. This is my heart song.
The last few months I have been trying to gather all the blog posts I have ever written into a book, to share my Soulflower journey in one coherent work so to speak, but as I have been doing that I have realized that I have been saying the same things over and over again through many different floral lenses.
“I am enough” the flowers tell me.
“You are enough” I share with you.
And so it goes, over and over. I don’t think it will make a very good book. But I didn’t want to let it go. What I have built… who will I be without it? What will I do?
And herein I realized the shocking truth, I AM ENOUGH! 😂
So are you.
Two years ago, when the deck was published by Inner Traditions, Iris told me I had done enough. I didn’t believe it of course. But here I am finally aligned with that truth.
I trust that I am fully supported and that I will know what I need to know when I need to know it. I am creating space for the next leg of my journey, whatever that looks like and wherever it takes me. I am ready for a new seed to sprout and grow.
As a wayshower it has never been my intention to teach “my way” only to share my journey as a way of inspiring you, not to do the same but to find your own unique path back to your own heart and the wisdom of your own soul. The wisdom of my soul and my heart is saying that this leg of my journey is over and so here I am back at the beginning. A full turn of the spiral.🌀
It’s been an honor to share this journey with you and I am deeply grateful for your virtual witnessing of me.
I shall keep my online shop open until everything is sold out and I will continue to maintain my website with my free daily pick and Deep Dive blogs sharing the wisdom of the flowers as they have been expressed through me for all who are led to them. You can also find me in the virtual CommUNITY Garden should you wish to tend alongside me and others remembering how to be.
But, and most importantly, I will be here, in my own garden, fully present with "What Is" in my one, sacred life. And if you happen to be in the Yarmouth, Maine area, you are most welcome to visit.
Many Blessings and All Good Wishes Your Way. 🌸
Our CommUNITY Garden is a virtual sanctuary where we are gathering to remember that being human we all have the same needs and desires—to be loved, seen, and heard in our humanness.
In our garden you belong.
In our garden we witness and honor all of our different experiences and journeys without judgment.
In CommUNITY we come together all speaking the same language of heart.
For You...
A gift from my creative heart to yours. Coloring is such a peaceful and meditative activity and a perfect way to connect with the plant spirits and soothe your soul. Make yourself a cup of tea, light a candle and spend a little quality dreamtime with your own wise heart.

Lastly...
I have had lots of conversations over the years about reciprocity, energetic exchange and how to feel supported and abundant in a way that feels good for all. Talking about money is not easy, but money is just one way we can reciprocate.
Hearing from you, connecting and engaging in the CommUNITY Garden, purchasing something from my shop or sharing my work with others who may be aligned are also wonderful exchanges.
The flowers have taught me that our attention is our most powerful currency but if you feel called to leave me a tip or love donation you can do so through PayPal or Venmo.
