Soulmate Around My Neck:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

A person can feel love profoundly… and yet be incapable of the work required to sustain it. This is not about the depth of the emotion.It is about the fragility of the person experiencing it… A PATTERN… He loves in bursts.Powerfully.Passionately.Convincingly. But love that comes in surges also disappears in surges. He feels devotion on Monday, collapse on Wednesday, regret on Friday, and righteousness on…

The Window Is Open:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

You know the saying, “When God closes a door, he opens a window?”… Well…Amen. This past week has been so chaotic and confusing and stressful, and I was shown why certain people just come into our lives to teach us lessons…sometimes over and over until God sees that we have learned, and that we are ready to make space for something we NEVER, EVER expected……

Calling:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

Rise above the old narrative. Meet this connection from a new consciousness. New consciousness means self-honoring first…not reenacting old patterns…choosing from center, clarity, and truth. Always see another soul as if you are seeing them for the first time…with renewed curiosity…and without any previous conceptions…open, curious, grounded, and unattached. A calling is always about evolution… Some people return to witness your evolution.Some return so you can…

Faith is your Truth:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

Cognitive dissonance is the uncomfortable feeling you get when your heart and your mind know different things to be true at the same time. The inner conflict means you’re outgrowing old patterns and becoming aligned with your values and your truth…which have now become non-negotiable. Those truths don’t cancel each other out. They coexist…The difference now is that you finally stand in a place of peace with…

Firewall:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

Sometimes the person who flees the fire is blamed for the fire’s destruction. But that does not make them the arsonist…. They were simply the one who pulled the alarm to save themselves from burning to the ground, while those around them had spent decades fanning the flames and ultimately chose their own slow, figurative death. In the future, I stand protected by a firewall…

Holiday Grief and Gratitude:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

I know that I speak to many of you when I say that the holidays may bring up sadness and even grief that we have surpressed… we miss a loved one…we find ourselves longing for the life we once lived…we may be spending the holidays alone for the first time… Holidays amplify every tender place, especially when family fractures, losses, warm memories, and old joys…

The Love of Your Life:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

The love of your life does not make you feel unsafe. The love of your life does not abandon accountability.The love of your life does not force you to shrink, ache, or “recover from them.” The love of your life supports your wellness.He nourishes your nervous system.He protects the tenderness of your spirit.He elevates your health, not harms it.He makes you feel chosen, secure, steady……

Anchored:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

We can’t stop others from their own interpretation, but we never internalize their experience of who we are. Their inaccuracies and limited understanding and beliefs of themselves project onto what they believe and what they think they observe. Most importantly, it is their own lack of self worth and lived experiences, combined with fear of uncertainty that confines them to live with an illusion of…

Guts:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

I don’t need anyone else’s interpretation of what I see… My eyes are wide open. My intuition is always so clear it pierces my gut… and my discernment is my power. Love and blessings, Wendy

Have A Heart:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

Some weaponize hierarchy instead of appreciating heart. They need to project authority to feel stable.Any action they don’t control feels like a personal affront.They become territorial… This is their storyline… but not mine. Even after being blindsided, I remain in alignment.I will always choose to do the right thing. I will always lead with a pure heart, a strong spine, and a fierce commitment to all I…

Soulmates:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

David is a reminder of what sincerity feels like, what emotional safety feels like, what presence feels like. He senses when my heart needs gentleness.He steps in with steadiness, warmth, and genuine care. And vice versa… A phone call isn’t casual for us.It’s presence.It’s connection.It’s our way of saying to each other, without saying: “I’m here. I’ve got you. You’re not alone.” It just “is…”…

No Shade:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

Today’s world is crowded with people who choose their ego over empathy…creating nothing but counterfeit connections, and then wonder why they’re standing in their own shadow. You may shine too brightly for others.Tell them to put on their sunglasses,Or let them bask in their own shade. Love and blessings, Wendy

No Stage Presence:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

“Nice” feels performative to me. Where kindness, empathy, curiosity, and love are present, I recognize truth. I can feel the honesty in my soul… I can see the love in one’s eyes… And I can spot the performance in the pause behind the smile.  Step off the stage…both feet on the ground…no fanfare. Love and blessings, Wendy

Discernment:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

Read between the lines… Listen to what is NOT being said. Observe the spaces where truth hides, and the feeling beneath the tone… In other words…”see” what is “unseen” and honor the obvious truth. It is in the dark, and it is in the silence that the truth emerges… and where intuition whispers the warning our heart already knows. Love and blessings, Wendy

The Red Light:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

Sometimes life flashes a “red light”, not to stop us…but to remind us to stand in our power and to strictly enforce our boundaries. Never, ever mistake my kindness for a lack of personal boundaries… Stepping over the line and into my personal space…uninvited…will show you the door where there is NO reentry. Namaste… Love and blessings, Wendy

“In The Arena” – Love, Wendy

Yesterday, a dear friend and I were talking about the Theodore Roosevelt “The Man In The Arena” quote in conjunction with Brené Brown’s “Daring Greatly“ quote based on “The Man In The Arena”. He asked me if I’d like to know what he thought about my being “In The Arena”, which had never occurred to me at all. A few hours later…he wrote it down…(Yes,…

Surrender and Comfort:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

It is when I am most uncomfortable…kicked out of my comfort zone and forced to explore, research, and apply myself…that I achieve “it.” The project is completed.The milestone is passed.My advocacy is heard.My goal is recognized.And I wear my accomplishment proudly as I cross the finish line. Then I reflect on my first thought before the journey began: “I’ll never be able to do this. It’s…

Where Are The Men With Courage? – Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

It carries polite distance  yet my warmth stayed intact, but the energy…yes, I pulled back. I acknowledge without feeding the deeper connection he’d just diluted by generalizing his affection in the “friend zone.” Then he reappears with a general discussion question which is a classic pattern of deflection. When one feels emotional closeness rising, they often retreat to safe topics where vulnerability isn’t required. It…

Nurturing Growth:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

I have rolled with the punches, learned to go with the flow, and walked away from anything or anyone out of alignment with Love. I have set boundaries with everyone and learned not to sweat the small stuff. I have become completely independent and self-sufficient, and I now realize that all this time as I faced mountains of challenges, one after another…these were sacred lessons.…

An Undeniable Pulse of Life:Soul Notes – Love, Wendy

Be still, breathe slowly, and let yourself feel where the music lands in you. You don’t have to reach for faith; just notice the vibration, the ache, the warmth, the memory. That’s how connection begins to move again…quietly, through sensation before it ever becomes belief… seconds…moments…years. How many times have I cried out…”God, please take this…I need You now… and even in the silent emptiness…my…
