This article is specifically geared towards women that have experienced childhood sexual abuse, and who are on a “big mission” to create their dream life.
My name is Carolin Hauser and I am the author of Blossom-Your Seven Step Journey to Healing Childhood Sexual Abuse and Creating Your Dream Life!
I am here today to help you get clear on what it is you need to do to truly step into your power and take your business (or business idea) and life to the next level.
Through my own journey, and through working with many, many trauma survivors, I have come to understand the deep connection between trauma healing, re-connecting to one’s own power, and the ability to create the life we dream of.
In other words, I have come to understand that as long as we do not heal our traumas, our past, we cannot achieve the level of success that we want.
If we are a woman in business, a heart-centered entrepreneur who’s calling it is to help others and we feel the we have a big mission, we can feel very frustrated with life because everything we start seems like it’s undermined by our feeling of low self-esteem and powerlessness that was created by the abuse.
In today’s article I want to shine the light on “3 Secrets” that can help you to really step into your power, turn on the real you, and start making money doing what you love.
Because, and let’s be honest here, trying to create a dream life without money sucks.
Really, I have never met a woman who has said: “O, my dream life does not need money.” To the contrary, when women start allowing themselves to dream big, they realize how money is at the very core of creating that dream life. Not just because they want nice cars and Prada clothes. No! It’s because they have such big missions, because they want to do good, because they want to make an impact, and because they want to contribute.
So if this is you, here are the 3 Secrets that will help you start making money doing what you love right now (which to me is real empowerment!)
Secret #1: Align with Your Authentic Self
Why? Because there is only one “you” on the planet. And guess what? That unique you, with all its fabulous ideas, love, and brilliance, is exactly what’s needed from humankind at this moment.
How do you align with your Authentic Self?
Well, your Authentic Self lives in your dreams and desires. Take some time today and create a sacred space for your self. Draw a bath, turn on some music, and light a candle. Get yourself into the mood of expansiveness, and then dream.
Dream as big as you can. Really ask yourself what it is that lights your fire.
Let that dream become your guide.
When faced with having to make a decision, project the issue on to the backdrop of your dream and ask: “Is this bringing me closer to my dream, or is it taking me further away?”
Secret #2: Be Awake
Develop a sense of wonder for your life, and assume that everything you need to know to manifest your dream life (including making money) will be shown to you.
Start cultivating a sense of curiosity. Ask God (or the Universe, or whomever you believe in) what your next step is, and the next step after that. Listen to the messages you receive, and start taking action on your impulses. Re-affirm to yourself that you are guided by higher powers.
Secret #3: Heal Your Emotional Wounds
This is the biggest key. I think a lot of us have fallen into the trap of thinking that positive thinking is what creates our lives, especially after the movie “The Secret” came out. Well, it is true that when we don’t feel good we don’t think positive thoughts, and we don’t create what we want.
However, focusing on changing your thinking is like covering a bad stain with a nice cloth.
The only thing that I have seen work when it comes to changing how you feel and getting out of feeling hopeless, exhausted and depressed into feeling better and happier is to really integrate your “stuff”. When we integrate our pain, the energy that’s been held in the body and psyche gets set free and becomes fuel for our growth. The more integrated we are, the more we feel our own authentic energy and power.
When that happens, nothing can stop us from becoming wildly successful and happy in our lives.
When I started to write Blossom, I had no idea what it would be about. I did have a dream of wanting to be like Marianne Williamson or Neale Donald Walsh, but I felt like there was no way I could ever become a famous author, coach and speaker. After all, l arrived in the U.S. from a small town in Germany, with little money and a limited fluency in English!
But in spite of my doubts and fears, I went for it. I began to write.
And as I was writing I was taken on my very own healing journey, a healing journey I thought I had taken since I had already gone through many years of training as a Humanistic Psychotherapist.
I realized through that process, my healing journey, that when we do our work (our inner work), our outer work and life starts to truly “blossom”.
