Hola First name / Tribe,

 

So many people reach out to me with the same quiet ache. Their life has a degree of success, comfort, or connection—yet they feel as though something essential is missing. They describe a hunger for purpose, a longing to engage more fully with their gifts, and a sincere desire to be of service to humanity. Beneath their words is often the same question: 

 

 

What I have come to see, again and again, is that the misunderstanding is not a lack of purpose—it is where we believe purpose lives.

 

We are often taught, implicitly or explicitly, that purpose is something external: a role to discover, a calling to identify, a contribution to perfect. We imagine it as something public-facing and well-defined, something that will finally make us feel complete once we “get it right.” In this framing, our present experience can feel like a waiting room—important only insofar as it leads us somewhere else.

 

 

This empowered engagement (or purpose) expresses in all areas of life, our relationships, our inner dialogue, our work, our rest, and even how we meet our confusion. Purpose does not require us to become someone else. Its only requirement is that we meet ourselves where we are, just as we are with full presence.

 

When we deny what we are feeling—when we bypass grief, numb discomfort, or override our own truth in search of something “higher” or “other”—we inadvertently turn away from the very key we are seeking. The parts of us we try to escape are not obstacles to purpose; they are the doorway to claiming more of ourselves and our capacity.

 

I have recently compiled into PDF my teachings on The Five Initiations of Shakti. 

Shakti, as presented here, is not an abstract force to be mastered, but the intelligent, animating energy of life itself, moving through our emotions, wounds, desires, creativity, and thresholds of becoming. 

Shakti is in service perpetually to our becoming, and purpose is a natural effect of this.

 

Each initiation described in the book mirrors a fundamental way we are invited to meet ourselves more fully: not by transcending our humanity, but by inhabiting it more honestly. These initiations do not bypass pain, confusion, or contraction; they include them as essential teachers. In doing so, they restore dignity to the very experiences we are often taught to outgrow or overcome. 

 

When we allow ourselves to fully acknowledge our own longing, fear, uncertainty, sense of disconnection, or envy, something profound happens. We stop performing purpose and begin living it. From that place, service is no longer an effort to fix or prove; it becomes a natural extension of presence, understanding, and shared humanity shaped by our gifts into action. Our lived experience, especially the parts that feel tender, unformed, or unresolved, is what develops the lens through which we can see others clearly and meet them with genuine compassion. 

 

Here, our struggles are no longer evidence of failure; they are signs of transformation in motion. Our sensitivity becomes intelligence. Our presence becomes service. And our willingness to stay with ourselves—exactly as we are—becomes the way life moves through us in service to the whole.
