I’ve been dancing for quite some time now but entered the competition side just last year. Little did I know back then, it is all to help me feel comfortable being seen in my energy.
I’ve always felt hesitant showing up and sharing my gifts with everyone. I always wonder if it’ll resonate with someone or if I’m actually making a difference in someone’s life.
In personal readings, my ancestors have always pushed to starting showing up and that people need my help.
As I grew in my gifts I thought I was stepping into my powers and was showing up. I was sharing my gifts, i was doing pop ups, doing lives. But I still had the fear of being seen as a professional reader. They wanted me to do something that would help me break this fear.
So I started dancing more and training for competitions and my energy has shifted. I didn’t know back then that it’ll translate into my work. I just needed a break and some other ways for my energy to flow.
I’ve slowly learned that you will not look and dance like everyone else. You dance like you and no one’s gonna look exactly like you! Once you figure out what works for you, just let it go and do what you know how to do.
Actually competing in a comp taught me that you have to stand out and you can’t stand out if you’re doing the same thing as everyone else. The judges/audience notice your energy and your story through your movements, so you can’t be afraid to show them!
All that to say my ancestors have led me here. I feel them when I dance. I feel them encouraging me to keep showing up. I feel them in my work. And I want to share that with you.
