Hi Reader,

​

Too many changemakers think that the only path to impact is through grinding, of burning the midnight oil day in and day out.

​

That the more they exhaust themselves in the name of doing what’s good, what’s right, what’s “necessary” the more they will accomplish ( or feel that they have accomplished).
​

Every candle burns out eventually.
​

Balance isn’t a luxury or a lofty goal— it is a strategy.
​

The goal isn’t to be a candle, easily snuffed by a passing breeze or day gone awry.
​

The goal, my friend, is to be a star.
​

The kind that shines through eons, that beams as a beacon for those who walk on nearby trails, those who sail on the same seas.
​

The stardust that created this universe is atomically woven into every fiber of your being.
​

You were made to glow, not as a small, flickering fragile thing, but through time.
​

Stop allowing yourself to be pulled wherever the wind blows you;
​

Learn to cultivate and trust that inner spark, that innate guidance.
​

✨See what waves you make then. ✨

​

I'd love to know what directions you've been pulled in, and where you're aiming to go. Hit reply-- I dare you.

​

Fair weather and following seas,

Kara
