Manage episode 296190112 series 2945059
"Love is the Earthquake that shakes everything that you think you are, to give you the profound opportunity to meet who you really are."
In this episode I connect with Nicole Gibson, the Founder and CEO of Love Out Loud and former Commonwealth Mental Health Commissioner of Australia.
In order for Nicole to step into a leadership role within our country, she was initiated through some major challenges which she overcame by being able fully meet herself from within.
Nicole compassionately expresses how she traveled towards the depths and the edges of self hate, and there within the darkness, she found her greatest gift.
It was through the contrast of being able to fully feel and experience this darkness that she was able to witness a sparkle of light within, a love that is always inside of us, and she realised all she needed to do was meet it.
Nicole speaks of how growing up she felt misunderstood by her family, but it was through that misunderstanding that she found edges of herself that allowed her to discover who she truly was.
She talks about how as a teenager she travelled across Australia connecting with schools within remote communities, listening and connecting to children by creating a safe space for them to be seen, heard, valued and understood.
We talk about how life is not necessarily about learning new practises or personal development techniques, but rather the unlearning of the beliefs and conditioning that have limited our ability to step into our highest expression of truth.
We go deep into how love is an actionable skill set that can be taught, applied and cultivated in each moment, through each person and recognising it's true power to transform, heal and create our lives.
"Life is so loving, that it will give you unconditionally everything that you ask for, we just don't think to look outside the box." - Nicole Gibson
