The Rhythm of Enough: What Happens When You Stop Chasing and Start Living

December 02, 20253 min read

There was a time when I believed I had to stay “high vibe” to create the life I wanted. That if I just thought positively enough, meditated enough, gave enough, pushed enough—I would finally feel free. But the more I tried to stay above the noise, the more exhausted I became.

Until one day … I decided to stop running. To stop proving. And something quiet and powerful began to rise: I met my center.

This is the story I never saw in the business books or the branding courses. But it’s the one that changed everything. And it’s the heart of what I now teach to visionary women ready to come home to themselves.

What If the Swing Isn’t the Problem?

Life moves in cycles. Always has. Always will. Up and down. In and out. Expansion and contraction. It’s not personal. It’s not punishment. It’s rhythm. And the moment I stopped resisting it, I realized:

The goal was never to avoid the fall; it was to learn how to stay rooted when it comes.

So many of us—especially ambitious women—have been taught that success looks like constant striving. Like momentum without pause. Like joy without mess. But when you believe you have to stay “up” to be aligned, you create a fragile version of fulfillment. One small dip, and the whole thing unravels.

The truth is: even the most grounded women wobble. Even the wisest hearts ache. Even the most visionary founders fall.

The power isn’t in staying above the swing. It’s in learning to move with it—without losing yourself.

You Are Not Your Emotions. You Are Your Frequency.

Here’s something I had to learn the hard way:

Emotions come and go. Frequency stays.

Your frequency isn’t a passing mood. It’s the identity you hold quietly in the background of your life. It’s who you believe you are when no one’s watching. Not the version you post on social. Not the one you show in pitch meetings. The one that whispers in your silence:

  • “This will never work.”

  • “I’m behind.”

  • “I’m not enough.”

The Shift That Changes Everything

The breakthrough moment isn’t when your outer life changes. It’s when you stop trying to think about your future… and start thinking from it. There’s a sacred pattern to creation. One I now teach in my Reignite work:

  1. The spark: knowing that more is possible.

  2. The vision: a glimpse of what could be.

  3. The yes: embodied belief that it’s already yours.

  4. The manifestation: when the unseen becomes seen.

But here’s the catch:

You can’t live this way if you’re constantly proving your worth through productivity. You have to let go of the urgency long enough to hear your deeper rhythm. The rhythm of enough.

Letting Go of the Mask

This rhythm won’t make you famous overnight. But it will make you free. Because it asks something radical:

That you stop building a life from the outside-in and begin building from the inside-out. It’s not about waiting for everything to align before you claim your truth. It’s about showing up as her now—the version of you who already knows who she is, even when the world hasn’t caught up yet.

She doesn’t need the hustle. She doesn’t lead from urgency. She leads from embodiment. From resonance. From wholeness. And she’s always been inside you.

What I Know Today

You don’t need to stay high to rise. You need to get honest. Still. Rooted. Whole. That’s how you change your life—by changing your relationship with yourself. And from there, you lead differently. You create differently. You attract differently. Because your worth is no longer up for negotiation.
