We Were Made for These Times

Volume II / Issue 21 — 26 October 2021

The times we are in can only be described as… interesting. “Interesting” is one of those words that therapists use to propel a conversation forward. It’s a skill I think we’re taught in grad school on how to continually affirm or validate, while also digging deeper. “Interesting” acknowledges that life is highly subjective—neither good nor bad.

The flip side is that whenever I use the word “interesting” in response to something in my personal life, I’m often called out for being “vague” or “non-committal.” And yet…

And yet, these times are interesting. It feels like there’s more turmoil than ever before, with more division, fear, and frustration, while also being full of hope and promise for something better on the way. Regardless of which “side” you’re on, the bottom line is that the times are interesting. And, since we’re here at this time, I have to believe we were destined to live through them—each in our own way—which brings me to one of my favorite writers and one of her quotes: “Do not lose heart. We were made for these times.”

Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes is best known for her book Women Who Run with The Wolves. In fact, it was the very first book I read that I would classify as “spiritual.” Now, my shelves are overflowing with spiritual teachings, among other genres. (I love a good biography!) Dr. E wrote that phrase in 2001, in a Letter To A Young Activist During Troubled Timesand it has stayed with me ever since. The subtitle for the letter was: Do Not Lose Heart, We Were Made for These Times.

It’s because of that message that I pushed forward with IOM, even though a global pandemic was unfolding all around me. I knew in my heart it was the right decision. As a result, we’ve published amazing work that has helped people through “these times.” The most recent book to help is AHA’s Awakening to Higher Frequencies. This transformative work is a game-changer for energy workers, or anybody interested in raising their frequency and unlocking their potential.

These times are interesting, indeed, and yet I am so grateful to be here to be part of the change we are undergoing, doing my part to help talented people share their work.

All my best,
