If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, confused, or disconnected lately—take a deep breath. You’re not alone. The thing is—this is a time where we really need to show up and do a lot of the work ourselves.
Let’s talk about what’s really happening right now—and what you can do to stay grounded in your Light.
Why Everything Feels So Intense: The Extinction Burst
Ever noticed how things seem to get worse right before they get better? That’s not just your imagination—it’s a phenomenon called an extinction burst.
This happens when a system or behavior that once held power is about to disappear. And before it goes? It fights harder than ever to survive.

Think of a child who stops getting what they want by throwing tantrums—the tantrums intensify before they fade.
A lightbulb glows brightest before it burns out.
A star shines at its peak before it collapses.
Heck, your hair even looks better right before you get it cut!
Right now, we are witnessing this on a global level. The old ways—the ones rooted in control, oppression, and fear—are fighting to hold on. It may look like things are regressing, but in truth, they are breaking apart.
If you’ve been thinking, This is the exact opposite of the world I’ve been working to create!—you’re not wrong. But here’s the key: as above, so below. As within, so without.
The external chaos is mirroring the internal work we’re being called to do.
Healing Begins Within
I know this might bring up resistance, but stay with me.
There are places within us that are still clinging to the old ways. Places that haven’t fully surrendered to the new. And that’s okay—it’s part of being human. But the invitation is clear: it’s time to go deeper.
Take a moment to reflect:
✨ Where are you still tethered to the past?
✨ Where are you resisting true freedom?
✨ What outdated beliefs or patterns are keeping you stuck?
✨ Are you waiting for someone else to save you instead of stepping into your own power?
This is not about bypassing or forgetting the past. It’s about healing it. It’s about unhooking from what no longer serves you so you can step into the future with clarity, purpose, and power.
What You Can Do Right Now
The Angels are clear: this is not a time to check out. It’s a time to step in—intentionally, lovingly, and powerfully.
Here’s how:
- Stand in integrity—Act only in alignment with your truth.
- Speak up—Even when it’s uncomfortable.
- Detach from oppressive systems—Don’t feed what is crumbling.
- Protect your energy—But don’t use it as an excuse to disengage.
- Prioritize self-care—Rest is not laziness; it’s a radical act of defiance.
- Support and uplift others—Healing isn’t a solo journey.
- Build community—We don’t have to think alike, but we do need to be like-hearted.
- Teach the next generation—Empower them with truth, wisdom, and love.
- Live in a way that renews you—Not in a constant state of hustle and depletion.
You don’t have to do everything. Just do something.
You Are Not Powerless
This is the breaking point before real change takes root. The more we heal the places we’re holding on, the faster transformation happens.
And if you’re not sure how to begin, or if you’re even ready—know this:
All that is required is the willingness to be willing.
You don’t have to have all the answers. Just take the first step.
The Future Is Worth It
Equality. Thriving. Joy. Innate self-worth. Community. Liberation. A balanced relationship with power.
This is the world we are stepping into.
So let go of the fears and resistance.
Use your energy to heal—not to fight against what’s falling away.
Do not resist the crumble. Let it happen.
Oppressive systems always burn themselves out.
You are strong.
You are steady.
You were made for this.
And remember: Light and love always win.
