We live by 6 Mandates at The Butterfly Club… Mandate #1 – I believe in magic.
When we were kids, everything was magical; everything was possible. As life unraveled for us, we slowly began to lose touch with our magical side. We became skeptical, facetious, jaded, closed-off, and non-believers.
Things are changing. Drastically and fast. Some of us are waking up to our inherent (yet dormant) power to create magic and miracles – on a regular basis.
We’re moving from survival to creation… From powerlessness to potency. It’s like a subtle, gentle breeze moving through us and everything… Can you feel it?
I want to share our Club’s MAGIC Potion with you – so you can start drenching yourself in it to begin creating you very own magic and miracles, immediately:
The Magic Potion:
Courage + Vulnerability + Authenticity.
Courage: This potion is not for the weak of heart. It is for those who are ready to fully embody their bravery and courage – you’re going to need it. Don’t freak out though, the more you learn to embody and drench yourself in the energy of courage, the more you’ll become it… naturally, effortlessly… Command the energy of courage to invade every cell in your body.
Vulnerability: Vulnerability is where it starts – because, often, it’s what most scares us. We’re scared to be seen, and perhaps more importantly, we’re scared to see ourselves – as we are… Dark and Light. Use that newfound courage of yours to see yourself as you truly are for the first time in probably, well… ever. You are worthy. You’re more than enough – if you only had a small clue as to just how amazing, potent, and powerful you are.
Authenticity: One thing I’ve learned on my journey of unleashing is that: It’s no fun at all to live life not being you. Enough with the masks, ego trips, and chasing carrots. Be you. Create what YOU want. Be who YOU want to be – for yourself and the world. No one is holding a gun to your head telling you to choose against yourself- you’re doing it to you. You’re choosing against yourself (and therefore being inauthentic) when you say ‘yes’ and you really mean ‘no,’ for example.
Make this potion a daily, integral part of your life + reality and watch what unfolds.

Unleashing: The precise spot where you break the mold by taking unprecedented action… Never-before-experienced action.
Your Unleashing is two-fold:
1) You’re freeing yourself from your invisible cages, self-created sh*tstorms, and self-imposed limitations/illusions.
2) You’re allowing your inherent, dormant yet potent brilliance to shine through – unleashing it out into the world.
The minute you plunge into the unknown and begin moving towards that unprecedented territory, the sh*tstorms will appear. They must – there’s no other way… This, my friends, is the dark side of Unleashing – when you make that bold declaration and begin moving in the direction of your highest becoming you will be faced with your Dark Side. Your Dark Side is that part of you you’ve secretly been despising and judging. It’s that murky, icky, black hole of a place within you where all your regrets, shame, guilt, and self-loathing reside – bubbling underneath the surface. And let’s be clear about this: we all have a Dark Side.
Society has programmed us to try to cover up this Dark Side with accolades, money, material possessions, status symbols, nice job titles, a pretty face, a flawless body – you name it… Society has programmed us to be numb, desensitized and blind to our Dark Side. We avoid it at all costs – we repress it with all our might… And the pressure just keeps building and building. Your Dark Side is that piece of you that you don’t want to own, that you don’t wish to see… so like a good little monster it cowers and awaits the perfect moment to erupt in your face in the form of sabotage.
Your Unleashing cannot come to pass without the emergence of your Dark Side – in order for you to shed your skin(s) and become who you were born to be you must look your Dark Side in the eye for you cannot release what you’re not aware of. When you commit to your Unleashing you open the floodgates for anything and everything that’s unlike what you desire to surface so it can be healed and released. (Healing, by the way means ‘to make whole again.’)
So remember, when sh*tstorms strike and you are faced with your own demons – don’t look away. Don’t run away. Don’t numb out. Instead try these three powerful steps to ensure you surf victoriously through the Dark Side of your Unleashing:
1- Sit with it : Whatever ‘icky’ emotions arise, be with them… Be present to them. Sit in silence with them. Resist your knee-jerk reaction to run away from them. Feel the loneliness, feel the sadness, feel the pain, feel the fear, feel the anger. While you’re feeling these emotions, don’t forget to breathe deeply.
2- Question it : Get in the habit of asking yourself “What else is possible?” “What’s right about this that I’m not seeing?” “What can I learn about myself from this?” The more you question the purpose of your Dark Side, the more your eyes will open to the answer.
3- Remember the ‘Illusion of Foreverizing’ : Nothing lasts forever. In the midst of our sh*tstorms we can get sucked into this illusion that things are permanent or unchangeable… Remind yourself that change and transformation is always possible.
Here’s something I shared on Facebook yesterday:
Truth: Shit happens. There are painful days, anxiety-ridden days, days of disappointment, days when you just want to throw in the towel… days when life seems dreary and scary… Keep going. Remember who you are and WHY you are here. Don’t fall into the trap and “foreverize” those days. The sh*tstorms WILL pass – and when they do it will be like the airplane that penetrates the thick gray clouds as it ascends higher and higher into the atmosphere… Once you pierce the gray you’ll be reminded that what’s waiting on the other side is nothin’ but sunshine and blue skies
