May – You Don’t Have to Wait Until You Feel Ready

I’ve been watching the garden come alive lately.

I love growing flowers to place in a vase in the house. I planted a peony four years ago, and every year, in anticipation, I’ve watched for it to flower. Every year – nothing. Each season, I’d research what else I could do to support it, learning as I went.

Last year, I discovered that this is quite normal. A simple adjustment – lowering the level of soil so it wasn’t sitting too high above the root – was what I tried. After that, it was quiet. For most of the year, the plant pretty much disappeared.

Then suddenly, it sprang to life. And not only that, but for the first time, it’s bursting with buds! I’m so excited to see it flourishing. Today, for the very first time, I have peony stems I grew myself, in a vase in my kitchen.

It reminded me of something I often forget:
Things bloom in their own time… and often, it’s not when we expect.

Maybe you can feel it too, that quiet inner nudge. That sense that something inside you is ready to unfold, even if you can’t quite name it yet.

This month, nature is in full bloom. There’s colour, momentum, movement. It’s all happening. And it’s not because the plants sat around waiting until they felt perfectly ready.
They simply responded to the light, to the warmth, to the quiet signals that it was time.

And I wonder…

What if that’s true for you, too?
What if your readiness isn’t something you wait for, but something you grow into, moment by moment?

You’ve already planted the seeds.
You’ve already started the work.
You don’t have to be “more” than you are to begin stepping forward now.

So ask yourself:

  • What would it look like to step fully into your power this month?

  • How might you show up more fully in your work?

  • Where have you been holding back, and what might shift if you took one bold step forward?

  • What’s one small but courageous act that would honour the gifts you already hold?

These are the questions I’m sitting with, too.
Not from a place of pressure or hustle, but from a place of reflection. Choosing to show up for what’s calling me, even if I still feel a little unprepared.

Because stepping into your power isn’t about force.
It’s about alignment.

It’s about listening to that quiet knowing inside – the one that’s been whispering,
“You’re ready enough.”

And if you’re someone who loves PSYCH-K® (or is curious to explore it), this is a beautiful time to use that inner toolkit. These prompts can lead to beautiful belief change statements. They help you integrate the truth that your growth is already in motion, and that it’s safe to let yourself bloom.

If it helps, I’ve put together a simple worksheet to walk you through this:

And if you’re feeling the pull to learn (or revisit) PSYCH-K® in a deeper way, here’s what’s coming up soon:

💫 Repeating a Workshop?
So many people find that repeating brings new clarity and transformation.
You hear things you didn’t hear before. You shift deeper.

However you choose to step forward this month, know this:

You’re not behind.
You’re not late.
You’re simply blooming in your own time.

And I’ll be right here, cheering you on every step of the way.

With love,
