<p>&#8220;We can expect to feel fear, even dread at some points in our lives.  We will always have situations that, for a time at least, seem more than we can bear.  But the clouds will lift.  We are never given more than we can handle, and with each passing day we become more at ease with ourselves and all that life give us.  We are learning that &#8216;this too shall pass.&#8217;&#8221; &#8211; Each Day a New Beginning</p></blockquote>
<p>I used to think that if I was doing everything &#8220;right&#8221; and had all my &#8216;ducks in a row&#8217; then I would not feel so uncomfortable or afraid when I took on new challenges.  I thought I would lose the knots in my stomach and not have those scared voices telling me not to try such &#8220;risky&#8221; things.  Alas, that&#8217;s just not the case!  The fearful grumblings are still there, they just don&#8217;t carry the same weight they used to.  I&#8217;m discovering that there are other parts of me that can carry the load, that are stronger now.  The self doubt is not truly banished, but rather given its space to breathe, while the stronger aspects of my being are now in their leadership roles.</p>
<p>Our first Banish Self Doubt telecall is tomorrow evening.  Check <a href="http://vibrantlyalivewomen.com/courses/">here</a> for more information!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the last several years, I&#8217;ve thought of changing my name to my spiritual name, Kamala.  I love the way it sounds and the way it feels inside when it&#8217;s said.  When over the course of several days last week, I had what felt like incredible openings and shifts.  Breakdowns and breakthroughs.  And now, it feels that this is the time to become Kamala.   To stand in my strength and power, given me (us) by God.  I know it is time to step up in a bigger way; that the world is needing us in a way we haven&#8217;t known before.  Can you feel it?<a href="http://vibrantlyalivewomen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/57854854_2f6dcdf3a1_m.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1023 alignright" title="57854854_2f6dcdf3a1_m" src="http://vibrantlyalivewomen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/57854854_2f6dcdf3a1_m.jpg" alt="57854854_2f6dcdf3a1_m" width="191" height="127" /></a></p>
<p>Kamala does things differently than Shawn did.  I love the energy I feel within me now that I&#8217;m stepping in to the carrying of this &#8220;new&#8221; name.  And I relish the idea that for the rest of my life I can be called by a name I like, that feels good to me!  Life&#8217;s really too short to go by a name that we don&#8217;t care for!</p>
<p>These are exciting times, aren&#8217;t they?  Those of us who are being stirred have some wonderful work to do!  And, boy, do I fantasize it being all &#8220;easy.&#8221;  We&#8217;ll see!</p>
<p>We have to start valuing ourselves.  We have to honor the light we carry and be willing to let it shine, vibrantly.</p>
<p>blessings,</p>
<p>kamala</p>
