486 // THE STRETCH BEFORE THE LEAP

🌿 Doors Are Open + Limited spots → JOIN THE 2025 RETREAT In this episode, I’m speaking into a space most people overlook: the stretch before the leap — that sacred, uncomfortable moment where your soul is preparing to rise… but your human still feels the tension. We talk so much about the leap — the decision, the next level, the breakthrough — but what we rarely name is the stretch that naturally comes with it. That stretch is a divine part of the leap itself. This will support you in trusting this sacred in-between. Let’s walk through it together. You didn’t do anything wrong. You’re not out of alignment. You’re just stretching — and that’s a sacred part of the process. JOIN THE 2025 RETREAT In this episode, I’ll walk you through: Why the stretch feels so real and so confronting. How to understand it from a spiritual lens — where Source designed us to expand in spirals, layers, and brave edges. What to do when the leap doesn’t feel as good as you thought it would. How to recognize stretch seasons and not mistake them for being off path. The metaphor of mmuscle stretching and how it mirrors our nervous system expansion and soul growth. And why the discomfort is actually proof you’re on the edge of your next embodiment. Ask Yourself... Where in my life am I currently in a stretch? Where am I resisting a stretch? What leap did I ask for that’s now inviting me to hold a bigger frequency? What can I make discomfort mean? ....
