A Tiny House With Ocean Views & an Aligned Career in Hawaii
I am sitting here writing this in Hilo, Hawaii, where I have just moved 4 days ago to begin my dream job! I am still pinching myself, this feels so amazing and surreal! I truly believe that this has been divinely aligned and has been orbiting my soul and subconscious for over 15 years now, but doing Lacy’s Manifestation practice has accelerated this from almost 2 decades of dreaming to 6 months of becoming reality!
I will try to condense this as much as possible: when I was 16 my parents put me in a program for at-risk youth because I was a wild, reckless, and lost teen. The coping skills I learned set me on the path to realize that I wanted to help other people find the love and worth that resides in themselves. I went on to study psychology in university, but my brother committed suicide and I had a few years of a rock bottom. Looking back, I see that all of these experiences were serving to help me empathize, understand boundaries, and to show me what life was like when I wasn’t in my worth so that I can reflect and relate to other people going through this. I now know that my brother’s death (or transition into spirit) is also a HUGE reason for motivating me to help children, families, and individuals to embrace their divinity, support and love their unique and creative expressions of themselves, and to be there to say “I see you, I love you, you have divine purpose and you can do this”!
About 2 years after he died, I came across a job working at a wilderness therapy program in Hawaii (somewhere I have always wanted to live) but I did not feel ready to be helping others when I was barely keeping it together, myself. So I put the job aside and forgot about it. Fast forward 7 years, I had found a very loving, healing relationship and had gone to school to study nutrition, yoga, reiki, and aromatherapy. All of the things that had helped ME heal along my journey that I wanted to share with others. I just really wanted to learn how to grow my own food, one of the things I hadn’t done yet. I had also recently ended the relationship when I knew in my heart and soul that it was no longer serving me. I also quit my job that I no longer enjoyed (hand making candles) because I felt it was time to start doing what my soul came here to do. I went traveling to Thailand and Bali (another dream of mine I had had for 15 years) and came back with NO job, no FU fund (wouldn’t recommend that for the future) but I had been avidly obsessed with Lacy’s podcast and decided to sign up for The Pathway. During the DI’s and DRE’s, I kept envisioning myself in Hawaii, surrounded by young children and teens and a community where we were growing our own food and learning how to BE completely authentic, in harmony with nature and thriving. But with limited income (I was teaching Yoga and doing reiki sessions part-time) I began looking at jobs online. My friend recommended a site that had this same company that I had seen 7 years ago and they had job listings! This time, I was ready and way more qualified after studying everything I had gone back to school for! I decided to apply, kept doing the DRE’s and had an interview 2 weeks later. During my second interview, they had 2 positions available, one that I wanted wasn’t available until August and one was available to start June 17 but was part-time. I can honestly say that before doing the work, I wouldn’t have felt worthy enough to ask, but I told them that I was available for the earlier start date but I wanted the other position. They told me they would call me in 2 weeks and the NEXT day they offered me the job I wanted with the start date I wanted! Since then, I have gone on to manifest the PERFECT living space (I moved out here with no place to live) it was a bit higher than my initial budget, but after seeing what was available in that price range, I decided to up it because I KNOW i am worth it and it is still in my price range. I found the most amazing, tiny house, it’s brand new, ocean views, with room to garden and has never been lived in. It is seriously something that is unheard of for the price I was asking for and it hit everything that was on my checklist!
