Shownotes

I’m giving you a fair WARNING in advance:

Highly triggering episode.

Full of Coarse Language. 

I am a source of hope, light, inspiration and love AND I’m also a big fan of realness.

Realness is not always nice to hear or see but it’s part of life especially if you are on a journey of self discovery and empowerment .

I feel today I had to come up with a damn good reason to post a new episode

At first I thought : 

I should not post an episode today. 

Who am I to take up space on social media during such devastating times ? 

I don’t f***ing want to talk about growth, expansion, inspiration, motivation and healing !!!! 

This would feel so self-abusive and wrong ..


But then I remembered that you guys here allow me to be real and raw.


So I decided to produce an episode for you that is real, raw, dark AF, authentic and hopefully giving you the permission to feel and allow your darkness as well.


Let’s all admit where we are standing and then go from there.

But ADMITTING to what IS is absolutely necessary here . 

I see no way around.


See how It feels once you admit where you are. See how people suddenly melt and also feel permitted to be real. This is what I want you to experience.


When you share genuine statements like;

I’m lost and confused

 I am hurting 

I’m depressed

I can’t see the light 

Where from here ?

I need help


  • Don’t you feel your heart soften a little when you can be that honest with yourself and others instead of constantly trying to drink, sleep, sex, amazon or Netflix your feelings away ?!!


I don’t want you to be happy just because you listen or watch my stuff. I want you to feel fulfilled and real for the rest of your life so I see no way around but being real and YESSSS, Dark at times.



I get so f***ing exhausted by people trying to live in denial of those devastating times and/ or trying to intellectualize the shit out of our current situation that we brought upon ourselves..




Give this precious lil episode a listen 

Share if it resonates 


Let’s go and be real today 



I deeply love and respect you, 

Aurora

Transcripts

Unknown:

Hello, hello and welcome to the Borealis

Unknown:

experience. I am Aurora. And I'm very happy to be sharing some

Unknown:

time today, some space, you know from previous intros that I am a

Unknown:

life coach, and I offer coaching sessions, one on one. Soon I'll

Unknown:

offer also group sessions. But today, I just want to be a human

Unknown:

being, I don't want to be seen as a podcaster. I don't want to

Unknown:

be seen as a life coach. I just want to be seen as a human

Unknown:

being. I struggled with myself to post an episode today because

Unknown:

I thought, Who am I to take up space? When there's so many

Unknown:

devastating things happening around us? Who am I to teach

Unknown:

about growth and expansion and healing? When there's so much

Unknown:

destruction, hatred, and sad stuff happening, I didn't feel

Unknown:

like showing up not because of self doubt, not because of not

Unknown:

wanting to show up but because I felt I needed to come up with a

Unknown:

damn good reason to show up during those times and to create

Unknown:

something that will serve you the most.

Unknown:

I decided to talk today about admitting admitting to yourself,

Unknown:

of where you're standing at, of where the world is that

Unknown:

I get so tired and irritated seeing people posting selfies

Unknown:

and Smiley's and lovey dovey things and things about

Unknown:

expansion and growth, investing in yourself. I know I do it

Unknown:

myself, but today, I'm tired of it. And that's okay. I want to

Unknown:

admit that humanity is at a point where there is no return.

Unknown:

So much stuff is going on that doesn't really make sense to my

Unknown:

brain, so much pain, so much suffering. And I'm just totally

Unknown:

exhausted. I'm so tired. And I'm most tired of the people who are

Unknown:

living in denial of this who are trying to hustle through who are

Unknown:

trying to distract themselves and put a face on ad. I'm most

Unknown:

attracted and drawn to people who can simply admit that we are

Unknown:

in a devastating situation. Don't you think that this is the

Unknown:

closest to authenticity and integrity it is okay to sit in

Unknown:

misery at times and to not know when is the next straw of hope.

Unknown:

Gonna come? When is the next person gonna come along? Who

Unknown:

lifts me out of this misery. Now it is okay to be sitting in that

Unknown:

misery. Because fighting it, there is no point you're just

Unknown:

going to waste energy. And if you're not go through it, it

Unknown:

will haunt you for a long, long time and you will burn yourself

Unknown:

out at some point. To admit that you are lost to admit that you

Unknown:

are depressed to admit that you are hurt and disappointed as so

Unknown:

much more valuable than trying to fight it. Trying to not feel

Unknown:

these feelings. Because these feelings are going to be there

Unknown:

no matter what. So might as well address them and stop running

Unknown:

away from them. Allowing stillness allowing breaks.

Unknown:

Pauses is so incredibly important. And when when you

Unknown:

stop for a moment and sit there and realize what's going on.

Unknown:

Yes, it will feel uncomfortable as fuck But that's just simply

Unknown:

your reality at that time, our reality all together, we're all

Unknown:

suffering right now. Nobody can tell me that. He's 100% focused

Unknown:

on his stupid self growth. We're all distracted. We're all

Unknown:

hurting. Because we're all connected. Even though I don't

Unknown:

watch the news, I can feel the vibe, the heaviness on my

Unknown:

shoulders, the suffering from other people. It suffocates me

Unknown:

at time. And then I have to sit there and realize, yes, I'm in

Unknown:

this with you.

Unknown:

Take a deep inhale, and then exhale, if it feels right.

Unknown:

I'm also deeply irritated by people who try to

Unknown:

intellectualize what's going on right now. And people are trying

Unknown:

to make sense of everything. And that's also a hassle, trying to

Unknown:

read up on things and studying and trying to make sense of

Unknown:

something that is so extremely complex. That goes back to I

Unknown:

don't know, over 100 years ago, the conflicts that we're dealing

Unknown:

with right now, that didn't start yesterday, they didn't

Unknown:

Start 2014 They started so long ago, and to be so ignorant. And

Unknown:

so ego driven to think that he can make sense of it. Because

Unknown:

you're watching the news or talking to people or reading up

Unknown:

on stuff is just not the way I feel is the right way to deal

Unknown:

with this right now. It is your ego who is longing for facts,

Unknown:

and for explanations, but it is not as easy as you make it

Unknown:

sound. It is deeply chaotic, just like Mother Nature is I'm

Unknown:

really dark today and I'm not intending to draw you into the

Unknown:

stuckness. But I want to give you permission to feel these

Unknown:

deep, dark feelings at times because they're part of

Unknown:

humanity, they're part of life, you can't escape them. And if we

Unknown:

keep putting a Mickey Mouse face to it, and keep pretending that

Unknown:

it is not good to feel these feelings, then my friend we are

Unknown:

on a very difficult path of in authenticity and not living in

Unknown:

integrity, we have to integrate these deeply sorrowing suffering

Unknown:

painful feelings because at some point, we will be able to

Unknown:

transform these feelings and create something that is better

Unknown:

for all of us. But it is only from that place of integrity and

Unknown:

authenticity that we will be able to start and create

Unknown:

something good, something better change for the better.

Unknown:

I hope you can give yourself permission to not be okay. You

Unknown:

do not have to be okay. And our smiley face. When you reach out

Unknown:

to me when you comment on my stuff. You can be real, you can

Unknown:

be raw a hold that space for you. It is part of growth, even

Unknown:

though it doesn't feel like growth. But the constant pushing

Unknown:

for expansion and growth can be so extremely abusive and

Unknown:

counterproductive. Sometimes you got to be still, sometimes you

Unknown:

got to just sit there and breathe and be okay with the

Unknown:

mess that is inside of you and all around you.

Unknown:

It is when we make these statements from a place of true

Unknown:

integrity that we can start healing and start growing again.

Unknown:

Even though it doesn't feel like it if you're in a partnership

Unknown:

and tell your partner you're falling out of love. You're not

Unknown:

feeling it anymore. Have you feel you guys have distanced

Unknown:

yourself and now, you can't really relate to that person

Unknown:

anymore. Yes, it is a painful place to be in. But it is a

Unknown:

necessary place to start a new to start talking, or to deciding

Unknown:

that this is the end. When you admit to yourself that you're

Unknown:

burned out, you give people the opportunity to be there for you

Unknown:

the opportunity to reach out to you. And they will understand

Unknown:

why you might be distancing yourself, and they will not take

Unknown:

it personal. When you admit that this is all too much, this is

Unknown:

too much suffering, that you're witnessing too much pain, you

Unknown:

feel irritated, exhausted, you can sleep. You want to take

Unknown:

sleeping pills, and painkillers at the same time. Please don't

Unknown:

do that, of course. But if you really feel that way, then you

Unknown:

can start to feel okay with that situation, and you will soon

Unknown:

find a way to get out of it. But first you got to admit where

Unknown:

you're standing at. If you look at a map, and you know you want

Unknown:

to go to New York City, but you're not knowing where you're

Unknown:

standing at. How are you going to find your way to New York

Unknown:

City, my favorite city in the world, by the way. So you have

Unknown:

to know yourself like I preach in and out. But you also got to

Unknown:

be so radically honest with where you're standing at. And be

Unknown:

real with it. Feel it. And from that place of integrity, and

Unknown:

permission, you can move forward when the time is right. And only

Unknown:

you will know when the time is right. Don't hustle through it.

Unknown:

Do it at your own time. Thank you so much for being here with

Unknown:

me. Thank you so much for allowing me to be real and I

Unknown:

hope you can do the same for yourself. take really good care

Unknown:

of yourself. And I will be out there very soon again. Bye bye
