  If this has found you, visibility, being seen, has been calling to you.
• 0:05
  And what I also want to say is it's been calling through you.
• 0:09
  Remember that being seen is not just about the individual and about what they may experience
• 0:14
  when they are seen and celebrated in that way and witnessed.
• 0:18
  It is also about who we all get to become through the path of them being seen.
• 0:23
  Each of us has been deeply moved by a speaker, a teacher, a singer, a coach,
• 0:27
  someone who dared to be visible in sharing their gifts, a writer, an author,
• 0:32
  anyone who has cultivated their gifts and then allowed them to be shared.
• 0:37
  So was it all about their manifesting being seen or manifesting their dream amount of
• 0:42
  book sold or speakers and an audience size, or was it also about who the audience,
• 0:49
  the readers, the receivers of those gifts then got to become what was unlocked through the vessel
• 0:55
  of that person. And I believe this message has found you because you are a vessel.
• 1:01
  And because we're surrounded by a very individualistic understanding of dreams and desires,
• 1:07
  what I want to invite you into is a collectivist notion that we all are here to usher a more loving
• 1:13
  world into being. And art and the artistry of our expression has a key and like irreplaceable role
• 1:22
  to play in that journey. Because if we can imagine a world where we are living heaven on earth,
• 1:29
  all of us of mutual driving and mutual abundance for all, then that world must exist in our consciousness.
• 1:35
  And there must be people whose music, whose books, whose ideas, whose storytelling, whose frequency
• 1:42
  and just their energy of being brought us into this feeling of worthiness, whose teachings,
• 1:49
  whose wisdom brought us into the worthiness to even create that world, the worthiness,
• 1:54
  to even feel we are deserving of such a world, let alone capable of bringing it to life.
• 2:00
  So what I want to share with you, my love, is this calling to visibility, know that it is a
• 2:04
  collective calling, know that it is an earthly calling because you are a light worker,
• 2:10
  you transform, you alchemize darkness into light. There are so many experiences that you have
• 2:16
  had throughout your life where you could have chosen to become the villain. But because you are a
• 2:20
  light worker, because you bring more light into this world, because you work with the light,
• 2:25
  you work with energy and healing and stories and dance and movement and ideas and thought.
• 2:32
  And you bring us into more healing, you bring us into more love, you bring us into more play,
• 2:36
  more delight, more connectedness, your empathy is a medium of connection. Your sensitivity
• 2:44
  is a spiritual gift. It is a gift to be able to feel into the unseen energies within the room,
• 2:49
  the unseen feelings, emotions, energy in motion and be able to speak to and through those feelings.
• 2:56
  And yet, of course, they don't want us to live as infinite souls. We've been conditioned to
• 3:01
  constrict and to minimize ourselves as well as to not even be able to claim that we are gifted,
• 3:07
  that we have gifts. So as a light worker, as someone who has alchemized darkness into light,
• 3:12
  when so much of this planet is rooted in the opposite kind, where darkness becomes even more
• 3:18
  darkness and so much of the abuse that we see of the war and the trauma that we witness is because
• 3:24
  of that way of thinking. I was exploited and abused, so I'm going to exploit and abuse you. You are
• 3:29
  different. You maybe had a parent who didn't listen to you. What did you become? The best listener.
• 3:34
  You maybe had a family who didn't understand you. What did you become? Deeply understanding. You
• 3:38
  might have been bullied or hurt in some way, but you've alchemized that into love and you're trying
• 3:44
  to now apply that love also to yourself. And I want to remind you are eternally worthy of that.
• 3:50
  But then also, we are not only defined by our traumas. You also have just gifts that you've
• 3:54
  always had, gifts to sparkle, to shine, to share, gifts to perform, gifts to be goofy and silly
• 4:01
  and hilarious, gifts to dance, gifts to make everyone around you feel comfortable and at ease.
• 4:06
  You might have the gift of speaking. You might have the gift of storytelling. You might have the
• 4:10
  gift of dance of cooking the way that you express through food, through ingredients, bringing the
• 4:16
  earth elements into their divine expression, bringing and making magic through food is part of
• 4:23
  your giftedness that could have been handed down to you from generation to generation, from your
• 4:28
  grandmother, to your mother, to your child. Language could be your gift. You have so many possibilities
• 4:33
  that you've cultivated or inherited from your family. So I feel it's very important when we think
• 4:37
  about ancestral trauma to also think of ancestral gifts. I feel like speaking is an ancestral gift
• 4:43
  that I have. I come from a line of a lot of very powerful speakers, people who speak,
• 4:50
  who calluma and you listen, like my mother, my grandfather, my grandmother, like just a line of
• 4:55
  my family members, cousins, aunts, very powerful speakers. We had this power of speech,
• 5:01
  and I feel like among the black diaspora and that power of the orator is very, very sacred,
• 5:08
  right? Very powerful, very moving, very special. So we need to recognize our gifts, but what I want
• 5:14
  to talk to you about is the universe is conspiring to support us when we are in flow and in that divine
• 5:22
  co-creative frequency where we say I have this gift and I'm cultivating the gift. If you have the
• 5:27
  gift of speaking and you cultivate it, the universe is cultivating it with you and through you,
• 5:33
  it's supporting you, the divine, the infinite. Because when you are cultivating your gifts,
• 5:38
  you are showing the infinite. I am you. I see my oneness with you. And so I'm stepping into the light
• 5:44
  of this co-creative power. And the infinite says, oh wow, like attracts like, she sees her infinity,
• 5:52
  they see their infinity. I'm going to mirror that back to them constantly. I'm going to deliver
• 5:57
  the perfect teacher. I'm going to deliver the perfect message. I'm going to deliver the perfect
• 6:01
  studio. I'm going to deliver the perfect gift. Because I see that they are seeing themselves
• 6:07
  reflected in the divine. If you long to teach, that's also an expression of the divine's will
• 6:15
  to spread wisdom through the collective heart and mind. So you are so supported, you're never alone
• 6:22
  you can tap into any energy, you can tap into any divine frequency and love is always available to
• 6:30
  you. And all it asks is that you recognize its availability, its possibility in every moment. There
• 6:37
  is a possibility of love. I'm sending you so, so much love, my angel, my darling, my sunshine.
• 6:43
  I'm so grateful to be on this journey with you, my soul sibling. If you haven't already,
• 6:48
  casually, the Soulful Visibility Guide is here to support you on your visibility journey.
• 6:53
  I also have an activation called the Soulful Visibility Activation, which is available to purchase

• 7:04

• 7:21
  the Soul siblings. And I'm so excited for more of us to gather together to co-create to be in
• 7:26
  each other's energy and frequency. And it's going to be so powerful. Spirit has really decided that
• 7:31
  this must be the case. So I'm so excited to continue to journey with you and through you. I hope
• 7:36
  that you have such a delicious day and week and know that you are so sacred and your desire to be
• 7:41
  seen is deliberate. It is intentional. It is because there is a version of you who is sharing
• 7:45
  their light and gifts and is receiving abundance in alignment with that. Whatever abundance truly
• 7:50
  and authentically means to you. So I'm sending you deep love, deep admiration, appreciation,
• 7:55
