Come Out of Hiding

“Come out of hiding”

I looked back at the words now inked to the page of my journal, “come out of hiding”, I paused allowing the words to settle in the air, I had written this for someone else, but now the words were inviting a response from my soul.

Initially, the words had tumbled out of my pen whilst writing about the types of people I feel drawn to work with; women who have always put others first, who have dreams, skills and passions perhaps even prayers that have lain dormant for a time they thought they’d eventually get round to.

Women who know that the embers have never stopped burning, they are soul led, spiritually grounded and full of purpose and power, yet never get a moment to breathe, to stop and allow the dreams to flicker to the surface. Who put others before themselves and maybe even are scared of what might happen if they let that fire inside them burn, who feel it would be selfish to explore that, and yet feel they might burst if they don’t.

Yet, those words, now etched both on paper and my heart, are calling out an invite to me to go deeper, to not dismiss them as a flight of fancy, coincidence or a door unlocked but never opened.

To come out of hiding is to be fully me, to not hide behind a persona I see others hold, or need or even expect. To embrace the fullness of me, weakness and all. To come out of hiding and not feel I need to hide my passions, my values my strengths and my quirks.

Coming out of hiding, starts with compassion and value, not based on others but on knowing I am fearfully & wonderfully made, right down to my innermost being.

To come out of hiding means to show up for me. I can be Fully Lou not ‘Lacking Lou’ who believes she needs to fight to be seen, picked, and known. Fully Lou starts from a place of believing she doesn’t need to hide, nor does she need to fight, she just needs to be me.

I know what it feels like to hide, to keep quiet, to not be enough but then be too much. I know it takes time to relearn. I realise your worldviews will be different to mine, and where you base your invite to come out of hiding, may come from a different place.

Yet in my journey of ‘filling up’, I am unlocking my purpose of empowering you to find your fullness, raise your voice, and be fully yourself. A person full of value, strength, passion & purpose.
