Reflections on word of the year end 2020

My word for 2020 was Powerful, and my intention for picking this word was to externalise less and instead connect with myself, embody my innate power and emanate it out into the world – to use the wellspring within me. When I think back to January 2020-me I can see all the pure intentions, and can’t help but smile at all the ways she didn’t expect to be Powerful this year.

In many ways, I have been more powerful than I’d ever thought would be possible. I faced things in my personal life that I had ignored and explained away for years, making the decision to end a long relationship as I am about to enter my thirties. Although I hadn’t expected it, this was the purest form of the intention behind my word – finally listening to the truth within me and believing in my own power enough to stand behind it. In my work, I have also embodied and emanated from my central truth, both in the way in which I’ve diversified what I talk about and in the way in which I have taken ownership of my working day style.( New Norm ways)
