I was inspired to share on the weekly Blesson’s I send out each week to my members. A Blesson is a combination of a life lesson + a blessing. May it inspire you to like or not to like. May it inspire you to comment or not to comment. May it just inspire you!
Delivered from my heart to yours…this week’s Blesson is about giving you permission to NOT like, comment or respond to my posts, emails or videos.
Social media can be used in two ways. It can connect and empower us or it can divide and defeat us.
Fear will divide us, Love will connect us.
Fear will defeat us, Love will empower us.
Social media is like an all you can eat buffet for the ego. The ego loves to use comparison making us feel like we aren’t enough. The ego love to use comparison to crush our creativity, block love and pinch off our intuitive channel.
The ego also loves to measure our self worth and impact based on how many likes, comments and views we have. We have been trained to become obsessed with the numbers, the stats and results.
In the last 6 months I have been sharing A LOT more regular posts on all the social media platforms with inspirational quotes, life lessons and videos. I noticed I wasn’t getting a lot of comments, likes or responses. My ego was trying to convince me that the results are in the numbers and if people aren’t liking or commenting that I was wasting my time and energy.
It caused me to question how much impact I was having if no one was responding. Even though I had doubts and confusion and moments where all I could hear were crickets, my heart said “keep going” so I did. I managed to quiet my ego mind a bit when I decided that even if one person’s life was impacted by one of my posts that would be worth it.
It wasn’t until I recently attended my high school reunion that my perspective around social media results changed in an instant.
I had several people who I hadn’t seen since high school come up and tell me just how much they appreciated my posts and videos. A few friends were moved to tears when they saw me because of the impact my words had in their heart and in their life. Every single one of them expressed their sincere gratitude followed by “even though I never comment I appreciate your posts so much”.
I realized that even though many people were not commenting or clicking on like, my posts were having a positive impact in their life.
I also realized that my posts are designed to cause everyone to pause and go within to reflect. In fact they are deeply reflective. I set an intention to infuse everything I share with high frequency healing energy. I sprinkled it all with love and every word holds great potential to impact change.
I share openly, vulnerably and authentically and that is not always comfortable for others. Not everyone is going to feel comfortable commenting and sharing how they feel. I used to feel that way too. I was also terrified of being judged. Over the years I have developed the courage to be open and vulnerable because I know it has the potential to help others so it is worth the risk.
I know that people will judge me. That is the nature of our programmed mind. It is a default setting for all of us until we change the internal programming. The difference is, now I care less about what others think about me and more about creating an impact in the lives of those who ARE meant to hear my message.
I learned that I can’t feel judged if I don’t fear judgment. So I make a conscious choice for love and no longer let the fear of judgment stop me.
After attending my high school reunion I healed another layer and let go of any attachments I have about comments and likes. I no longer let my ego convince me the only way to measure impact is by the number of comments or likes I get on each post or video.
Impact is impossible to measure.
So having shared all of that I turn to you and say that I give you full permission to NOT like or comment on any of my posts, videos or respond to these email Blessons.
You are welcome to read, watch and receive the messages that come from my heart in whatever way you need to with no obligation or expectation from me for you to reach out in anyway.
If you feel it in your heart to reach out or to comment on a post you are most welcome. I absolutely would love to hear from you. BUT I don’t expect to and I don’t NEED you to because I know and trust in my heart that I am having an impact on the hearts and in the lives of those that I am meant to. And if that happens to be YOU I am deeply grateful.
I know in my heart I am on path. I know I am playing the role I am meant to be playing.
Here is my blessing and prayer is for you…
May you receive the messages, insights and divine guidance you need in each moment. May the messages land straight into your heart bypassing the fear-based programming of your mind so that it can have the greatest impact as it inspires and empowers you deeply and profoundly. May you make a conscious choice for love over and over again until it becomes your natural default setting once again. May you discover the divine courage within you to say YES to receive all the miracles that life has to offer you in each moment.
And so it is….
Say YES to receive and activate my blessing for you NOW! Then be wide open to your heart leading you in every moment.
I would love to hear from you. How did this resonate for you today? If you feel inspired, reply to this email or share on the Heart YES Movement group on Facebook.

Heart hugs and love,
