On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole explores one of the biggest challenges most Secret Witches face: how we can overcome the challenge of balancing our busy lives with our deeper calling to being a healer. She dived into the crucial topic of how to create space for our healer witch, offering a practical ‘workshopy’ episode and guided meditation for women who feel a deep spiritual calling to become healers, but struggle with self-doubt and burn-out - and don’t feel they have space to delve into the deep work.
In this episode, as part of her #HundredHealers vision, Nicole provided both practical steps for time-management, mental and physical space creation and advice on how to integrate magic into our daily life - and a healing journey with an Archetypal Remedy for activation of the part of you that knows how to manifest a magical life: your inner Creatrix, also exploring what resistance to that really means for our healing.
What You’ll Learn from this Episode:
-
The fear and doubt that arises as part of becoming a healer is normal - and not a sign you’re not cut out for it (it’s the ‘Secret Witch’ wound - and just means there’s healing to do of your wounded healer)
-
Feeling we are lacking time and space to do the deep work in our busy mundane lives is part of this wound - and wants some loving healing (the practical workshop and journey in this episode was potent for helping that)
-
Cultural views often label necessary healing work as ‘selfish,’ ‘self-indulgent’ or ‘non-essential’ - a perspective that gets internalised by many women, making it harder to prioritise our spiritual growth
-
Resistance is a healing invitation. It is showing us there's something butting up here against what we know - and we want to go into that with loving curiosity. Like: “why am I feeling resistance? What is my belief here?”
-
There are some very practical steps we can take to create space for our witch - and, if we have resistance to those, it’s a sign there’s more healing to do around choosing ourselves and claiming our purpose as a healer - we can do this by journeying with Archetypal Remedies (and particularly the Creatrix, who knows her manifesting power)
