Andrea Bordeaux Instagram – The past 6-8 months have been some of the most challenging and painful of my entire life. I’ve been feeling bewildered by my life circumstances, a dark night of the soul rolling over me in relentless waves.
After finally being brought to my knees in humble surrender, I have spent the past two months in deep reflection and silence. After returning from Costa Rica at the beginning of April, I was gifted a beautiful opportunity to commune with the dark in my second darkness retreat.
During my first darkness retreat in 2022, most of my downloads and messages were centered around my relationships with others.
For my second darkest retreat, healing my relationship with myself was the medicine.
Something that became clear is that so much of my struggle has been due to me desperately trying to hold onto a version of me that no longer exists.
The parts of me that I’ve held onto are no longer congruent with who I am becoming. The version of me that sits here today had been feeling neglected and unloved, and I made a promise to begin showing up for me in the ways that I now need.
It was painful to realize the ways in which I have not trusted myself, and in not doing so, have faced difficulty to inspire trust in me from others.
I feel gratitude for now having deeper awareness and the ability to begin looking forward to all that has been waiting to reveal itself to me.
I shared a deep, heartfelt letter with my email subscribers yesterday where I fully express what I’ve touched on here as well as big updates around how I plan to show up differently in the social media landscape.
Hint: A big change premiers tomorrow.
