Want to step into your soul path. But feel stuck?: I'm sharing my experience to encourage you 🤍

I am no one successful in navigating the soul path, but I felt like this sharing might be soothing for someone who are looking to shift their life to walk on their soul path fully forward.

Lately, I’ve encountered so many people telling me that they want to step into their soul path, but something in their life keeps them stuck in a certain/current place. So, I thought this might be a sign for me to share what I’ve learnt through walking on this path. I am no one successful in navigating the soul path, but I felt like this sharing might be soothing for someone who is looking to change their life to walk on their soul path fully forward.

So, it was a very subtle process I would say. I wasn’t aware of it until maybe a year had passed so I began to understand the whole picture of this thing.

I remembered arriving at Edinburgh after having some much-needed space to heal my senses and my body and reconnect to myself and nature enough, I began to be able to receive the beauty of small things in life more i.e. walking in nature, seeing the mountains. And when that happened I was drawn to capture this beauty of nature to share with others. So, I created an Instagram account. I posted reels that I shot during my nature walk with quotes that I felt like sharing. There were like 50 followers or something, but I just found it to be very fun. I didn’t have real joy/fun for a while since I started working. And after that, I got to travel around exploring new places in this new country. I later realized that ‘wow life is much more fun’. I felt the freedom that I’ve always yearned for. And something in me has shifted. I remembered thinking to myself ‘Wow I actually can do much more things that make me feel alive’. I can actually choose. I can always choose all along. It’s just back then I wasn’t in the right stage to receive this fullness of life as my life before was so cramped and had no room to wiggle for spontaneity or for my soul to weave her magic into it.

One thing that still got me feeling stuck at that time was my master’s degree. It wasn’t bad at all, but at that point my soul yearned to be fully expanded, yearning to do something that makes me fully alive even more. So, I realized I didn’t want to continue down this path anymore. I was like most people. I was so afraid of how I would look in the society. I still had my ego of having a good career before that so, I didn’t want my CV to look bad as well. But eventually, I think to myself ‘You know what if the life I created with my mind didn’t work anymore, then it’s time for my soul to come in to lead me out from this grumpiness/dark place’. I finally lost my grip and surrendered to my soul. It was a hard decision and came with a lot of expenses that could have been avoided, but eventually, I decided to interrupt my study, so I freed up the space for my soul to fully be in, to fully orchestrate my new version of life. And I actually felt that it lit me up from within just thinking about it before I decided to interrupt.

And who knows how just following ‘non-sense, not making sense, vague plan’ from the soul can lead me to many unimaginable journeys later on. It was subtle. I was gradual of course. It’s not like you will instantly find the right answer. I 90% of the time don’t even know (in my mind) what I’m doing and why I’m doing it. I just put pure faith in my soul/my intuition. It seems wild right? Yes, it is! But I would say I have no regret at all in doing so.

So, for me to free myself from feeling stuck, it starts with '“What I actually enjoy, what lights me up from my heart and my soul level”. For me, I didn’t even think that just doing nature reels on IG with beautiful quotes would lead my life up to this point. (Even though that IG account doesn’t exist anymore because I now just use my existing IG account instead) Writing online and sharing with the public was not something I planned. Purchasing a professional camera with no plan, no reason. Going on many intuitive journeys with again no plan, no reason. Got to meet so many amazing people who helped ease my transition. And btw I have many exciting projects coming up soon! It is so wild to think how different between me almost 2 years ago: working in business/startup/consulting full-time vs me now: writing online, photography, and exploring my childhood interests with a soul-led approach. Who would have thought? I myself didn’t even think it would end up this way. So trust in that ‘nonsense baby step from your soul’. Just like what Rebecca Campbell often talks about ‘what lights you up’ That baby step that truly lights you up from within. Trust in that. Have faith in that. She knows how to lead your life from here.. away from here…. and into a beautiful place that feels more aligned from within.
