If you have ever birthed a new idea, inspiration or solution to the life of another, you are a mother.
The moment when you give new life to something that others thought was impossible, you are a mother.
It’s that moment when you feel like your heart is going to split in half because you see in your mind’s eye the possibility, but your circumstances in the moment don’t support the inception of that new idea into the world, then you give birth to something bigger than yourself. You give birth to a possibility. You ask “What if..?” And you find the answer, often times though other people. You maneuver around the circumstances, shift them to support what you know gets to happen, and you have given birth to a new idea in the world.

These mothering moments is when new hope is born – when new possibilities are realized. When someone just needed a smile, a pat on the back, an encouraging word, a gentle hug, you step up and “mother” that person or situation into the true essence of brilliance that is right below the surface. You saw the possibility all along and you invite it to emerge.
Happy Mother’s Day to everyone – whether you have given actual birth to a child or not, nurturing and supporting divine human beings on their path of living their potential makes you a mother.
Thanks to all of the mothers in my life, including the one who gave me life, Karen Johnson.
Thank you to all of you who have breathed life into my vision and hope, you always show up when I wonder if it will really happen. Then it always does.
In Deep Gratitude,
Angela
