Hello and welcome to this episode of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to my Life. I'm your host, laura Muirhead, and I am so happy to welcome as my guest today Lucy the Light. Lucy, come and introduce yourself and tell us where you are in the world and what you do.

Lucie the Light 0:55

All right, thank you, laura. First, I want to thank you for giving me this opportunity. I'm Lucy Delight, as you said, and I'm in Quebec, canada, and I've transitioned in the last couple of years into a transformational coach, facilitator and speaker, and I basically specialize in prosperity and purpose.

Laura Muirhead 1:25

Wow, that sounds amazing. I'm sure that the people you work with are really benefit from that. We definitely need that out in the world. So you, I don't know your story, but just from the little bit that you've shared with me, you, you didn't start out. You didn't start out your career as a transformational coach. So tell us a little bit about your background, a little bit about your background.

Lucie the Light 1:59

Yes, Well, I started very young in the financial industry. I was 19 years old and grew within the 30 years that I was in the industry, completed as a financial planner, and I learned so much and eventually that job didn't fit me anymore, for many reasons, which I will share with you, but the most, the most reason, the reason I left was because I was not following my purpose anymore and I felt like I was not true to my path. My journey 20, after being very curious and in wonder and receptive and looking and wondering what I was meant to be accomplishing, this amazing manifestation came to me because I was ready to receive and I saw an interview with Dr Deepak Chopra and my amazing mentor and coach, Dr Claire Zamet, and as soon as she mentioned transformational coaching, I knew I remember exactly where I was. It's that moment when you throw your arms in the air and you say, Eureka, this is what I'm meant to do, and I was like really yearning to find my path again. And I found it and I followed it.

Lucie the Light 3:57

And I want to share something with you because a couple of weeks ago, I had a revelation. This came to me intuitively. This sentence was a deep knowing, and this sentence was manifested to me. What came is all my life I knew something I didn't know. I knew and it might not make sense to you or all the people that are listening, but if you slow down and listen very deeply, it makes sense. And for me, that thing that I knew I didn't know I knew was that I was already on my purpose path all my life and as soon as I was swaying in the other direction struggles, challenges and even becoming disabled in 2005. And thanks to that disability, it saved my life. It brought me back to where I needed to be.

Laura Muirhead 5:33

This is incredible because, I mean, this is part of why I say a if anything happened on the way to my life, right, because these things and I think that it was Steve Jobs years ago who, in a speech, said something about if you go back and connect the dots, and I feel like that kind of resonates with what you're saying here as far as, like, you knew what you didn't know, you didn't know what you knew, and this it's amazing. And I also love that when you heard your, your mentor, saying transformational coach, that it just really hit home with you. It really like your inner knowing you're. It just lit you up and drew you in like a magnet.

Lucie the Light 6:20

I, I love this definitely it like it was the the biggest information I had ever received. That meant so much. If it like it's, it was like a freedom. Finally I've got the answer Now. I know who I am, what I'm meant to do, who I'm meant to serve, and I don't want to go into darkness right now. But unfortunately, our world right now we're not asking ourselves what we're here to accomplish, we have no idea about our life meaning and we're suffering so much because we are looking for things outside of ourselves to make us feel better when we already have all the answers inside of us well and I also love what you're saying.

Laura Muirhead 7:29

I I agree with you on this, and but I also love what you're saying with when you really weren't, when you were falling out of alignment from what you felt, your purpose was what you know inside, what your inner compass, your inner knowing, your whatever you want to call it your intuition. The more you go off that path, the more struggles you have. The more struggles you have, the more struggles you have, and a lot of people don't see that those are signs of being out of alignment. They just see them as struggles and instead of being like, okay, how can I stop going in that direction? How can I bring myself back? How can I really you know sort of law of attraction bring in what is meant for me, what is more in alignment in my life, in my being? And you know, tell us, tell us more. Tell us more about, about your journey.

Lucie the Light 8:34

Yes, and, like I was saying, we are looking outside for us for feeling better inside with the bigger house, bigger car, having more money, more time. We're always wanting. What is it for me in everything we're manipulating? We want to use everything we can. We want to receive, receive, receive. We can't receive if we're not giving back. We're here to serve. We start by serving ourselves and then we can serve other people. It can be volunteering. It doesn't have to be a life mission. It can be smiling to somebody, just being kind.

Lucie the Light 9:25

And on my journey I felt that I was always trying to learn things and grow and be that best version of myself, because I had that pull. Something was pulling me and, yeah, we need to slow down. That's how my body became disabled to stop me and put me on hold, because I was getting frantic doing all kinds of things that didn't really matter. So I became disabled. I couldn't walk anymore in 2005. But now I know why I needed to slow down, realign with my true self, my own values, and I started to meditate and I started to practice yoga because I had a back surgery, so I couldn't practice all the sports and keeping my mind busy. I couldn't practice all the sports and keeping my mind busy.

Lucie the Light 10:41

So it brought me back into alignment with who I truly am and slowly I started to grow spiritually and connecting and seeing that we're not alone. The universe is always there, listening, and it will send us what we need Divine abundance. Instead of always wanting and demanding, we just need to slow down and receive what we need to receive and those things that we need to receive are not exactly us on our path and believe that we're not alone and that we also have our angels, our spiritual guides, our ancestors, our deceased loved ones, and I know for a fact that I'm very well supported and guided. And I know for a fact that I'm very well supported and guided. I've had amazing signs, things that happen in my life that can't be explained and people might say, wow, she's crazy. I truly had amazing signs come in when I asked for them and they are there when I asked for them. So there are no coincidence. Life can be easy when we turn in words inside of ourselves to learn to know ourselves better.

Laura Muirhead 12:41

Yeah, I love this. I love this message that you have. I always think it's interesting. So Lucy and I have not met before today. We have only connected through social media. So I find it really interesting when I have coincidences, synchronicities with my guests, and I actually have so far a couple of well more than a couple of synchronicities with you. But I also used to work in the financial planning world, but not as a financial planner. I worked in an office for a financial planner years and years ago when I was young, but so I think that's really interesting.

Laura Muirhead 13:23

But also I find it really interesting that a lot of people that are that I come across have had times when their bodies have just said no, that's enough, that's enough, and that's when you know they they find a path, they find a spiritual path, or they find the strength to work on healing their body, because you know, we're, we're, we're all energy and this is a lot. This is how a lot of negativity manifests in our body, right? So anyway, several years ago I was slated for back surgery. I had some issues going on. It was actually in my leg. I thought it was my leg but discovered it was my back and I went to a, I had an MRI, I had all the thing tests done and the back surgeon, of course, said you need to have surgery. And we kind of said, my husband and I said, well, let's hang on a minute, let's see before we do that. That option's always there on the table right. It is always there. And I ended up seeing a holistic doctor who did acupuncture and it wasn't, it wasn't an instant fix by any stretch of the imagination. It was a journey. But I didn't have back surgery and but I learned so much along the way.

Laura Muirhead 15:04

And that was the first doctor I ever went to who actually gave me books to read, gave me exercises to do. The first time when I went to see her after, you know, like the first, after the initial visit, after she gave me exercises, she was like how many exercises, how many times a day do you do these? And I said, oh, you know, twice a day. She's like, oh, no, no, no, no.

Laura Muirhead 15:28

And so she literally took me on this journey of, you know, taking responsibility for my own health, which I think is a huge message for all of us. And yeah, I think it's super interesting. So, and I can't tell you the number of people that have literally hit a wall with their health and have been like, no, okay, I've got to go in a different direction. And you know, I can't even imagine what you experienced with you know, just not being able to walk, and then, you know, recovering from that and coming through that, but also, thank goodness, you were able to align with you know, the, your higher powers, your higher self, your inner knowing, and all of that as well, and take you, took you on this, obviously, this other incredible path.

Lucie the Light 16:21

Yes, I truly believe that this disability saved my life. It's it's crazy to say that, but it's true. It's truly something that needed to happen. So I would slow down and, thank god you didn't have surgery. Um, in my case, the the the disc was severed, so there was. They had to fix it anyways, but I bounced back because I needed to, because I've got a, because I've got a mission, I've got a purpose and I'm accomplishing it.

Lucie the Light 17:03

And it all started when I decided okay, enough of this job, which is like, oh, this masculine energy, I can't deal with this anymore. I felt my feminine energy suffering. I felt my feminine energy suffering and in 2020, started those programs learning who I was, what I was meant to do, becoming a coach. I did masteries, everything I needed to do, and a year after which is a big, big accomplishment of mine in September 2021, I embraced sobriety.

Lucie the Light 17:43

I didn't need to numb anymore. I felt like this was numbing the pain inside, which I didn't have anymore. I didn't have that pain of feeling lost and angry and not knowing who I was. Now I had found who I was, what I was meant to do and who I was meant to serve. So, no more alcohol, not even following any steps whatsoever, only finding myself and I'm not saying that those programs are not good for me. The problem was my finding myself. I was suffering inside and everything came into place like a puzzle. All the pieces came into place. Came into place like a puzzle, all the pieces came into place. I received more synchronicity, manifestations, intuitive things that I needed to learn about, because I was like yes, I'm here, use me, universe, I'm your instrument.

Laura Muirhead 18:55

And so many levels of healing. I mean so many levels. Congratulations on your sobriety. It's not easy, but for your body to be like no, I literally don't need any of this anymore. And you had so many journeys all at once and many levels of healing, which is amazing.

Lucie the Light 19:20

Thank you, Thank you and yes, and I can come back to where I was and say today how my life has changed. It's been transformed and actually wrote a chapter in this book Transforming Pain into Purpose in July 2021, or 2020, time flies. So I explained in this book the journey, how it came to be, and one thing that I also discovered is that we come, our soul, comes into our bodies three months prior to birth and we choose our family, our parents, our community, because we know that they will set up the wounds needed for us to learn how to accomplish our purpose. So when we learn this, so when we learn this, we get the idea that our anger, our bitterness, we can let go of it Because we're judging our parents and we're victims.

Lucie the Light 20:37

No, they had a contract. We had a contract. We all have contracts and we're here to help people. So everyone in our environment is there to teach us something. Everyone is a teacher and, to see it that way, instead of feeling like a victim, we chose this path because our soul wants to elevate to the next level. So it's a different way of seeing things and it's healing.

Laura Muirhead 21:07

Yeah, I agree. My mentor actually calls people, especially people who are placed in your life as challenges, agents of the universe, and they're there to teach you something. And, like you said, you know we have the soul contracts and we, you know, everyone is put there for a reason. If we can, like you said, if we can change the mindset to what is what is this person teaching me, and change our mindset from this is happening to me to this is happening, happening for me, yes, like what can I learn? What can I? How can I grow on my path? How can it, how can it help me, you know, to better myself in some way, or or or even actually I, um, I have a program called the queen code.

Laura Muirhead 21:54

A lot of our listeners of know this and it's about setting boundaries, what I call personal policies. So, a lot of times it is about changing the story, changing your story to something more positive. But also, maybe these people are here for you to learn to set a personal policy and say nope, for you to learn to set a personal policy and say Nope. This is not something, this is not a situation that I want to be a part of, going forward or not a person that I want in my life going forward.

Lucie the Light 22:29

So, yeah, these it's, yeah, exactly what you're saying, and to come back to what you said, this is happening for me and even more, this is happening because of me, because of my journey, what I came here to accomplish, to learn and to grow from. And yeah, those stories, we bring them from our childhood, those stories saved us from those situations and we are bringing those old stories in our adult lives and they don't serve us anymore. So our beliefs, our assumptions, our self-concept, they will influence our decisions, our choices, the way we show up in the world. And until we observe ourselves and catch ourselves when those triggers come and see what's happening, why am I reacting like this when I can respond? And this week I had a situation and I dealt with it with peace and calm and patience and I said, whoa, who am I?

Laura Muirhead 23:56

You didn't recognize yourself.

Lucie the Light 23:57

You didn't recognize yourself. Yes, in my body I was so proud of myself and, yes, we can see ourselves growing and congratulating ourselves for doing the right thing and not reacting, and rather responding, because we can always look for those triggers. But when there are no triggers and you see the transformation, my God, now I said to myself there you are, lucy, the light.

Laura Muirhead 24:43

There you are Beautiful. I was so, so proud I was shining my light right. Oh, I love that. So tell me if you agree with this. But I have found in the last few years, sometimes I've had to had some difficult conversations that I feel like in the past would have gone very differently, and when I approached them and you know, like you said, stayed calm, stayed, hopefully the words landed with them in the best way. When that happened and I mean, tell me, is that what you have experienced as well?

Lucie the Light 25:30

Absolutely. I have learned in the last four years almost that difficult conversations need to be had. We need to have them. It's okay to have debates and discuss things without oppressing people. If you don't think like me, you're not good. No, we are allowed to have our differences and respect each other. Differences and respect each other. And having difficult conversation is the mature way of being adults. Some of us are still children in adults' bodies. We're like hmm, like in the how do we say that In the la cour d'école, the school, in the yard? No bullying, let's be mature, let's talk. There's nothing to worry about. Nobody will die about having a difficult conversation.

Lucie the Light 26:34

It's clarifying what we are thinking on each of our sides, and I'm learning with a mentor right now from Quebec. His name is Guillaume Dulude. He's a psychologist and I've got this program with him and he taught us a way of communicating our message. It's five parts and when you follow these five parts to convey your message, the other person knows exactly where you're going. So it's really learning how to communicate and we don't learn that, they don't teach us that in school. So we come with this is that and that is this, and blah, blah, blah, and we get so angry and frustrated because we don't know how to communicate, and frustrated because we don't know how to communicate, which is really easy actually, If you know how to proceed with this step-by-step. We call it a vector, so it's five steps, so it's, yeah, difficult conversations.

Laura Muirhead 28:13

It's necessary and sharing your light out into the world. I always say that there's an incredible ripple effect and that we're also. You know, you're helping other people, whether you realize it or not, just by having, even if that person doesn't learn how to communicate in that way, back, they've still learned something from you that you've still taught them a calm way of dealing with something. Or, you know, maybe there's a takeaway of oh, I can't, you know for them, even like, oh, I can't believe, I didn't get mad. You know, when I talked to Lucy about that, you know. And so there is like there's energy obviously spreads out into the world in these ways, and it sounds amazing.

Lucie the Light 29:02

Yeah, absolutely, and actually it's kind of my essence, who I am. I've always been a guiding and inspiring. I could say light, I could say light. I think it's all attached because the thing is, a priest told me maybe 30 years ago that Lucy in Latin means light, and I always kept that in my mind. I always knew that there was a message in that and when I started my business I said, okay, this is who you are. You really you need to own this. You need because obviously people might judge who does she think she is. But the thing is, we are all, everyone are light. We are all everyone, we are all energy, we are all lights. And I'm making a statement, I'm owning it so that people can start believing in themselves as well and seeing themselves more than labels and titles. We are all connected. We are all connected, we are all lights. Yeah, Transmitting the powers of energies.

Laura Muirhead 30:27

Yeah, yeah, and the um, actually the. The metaphor that's coming to me when you're saying that too is the idea of a lighthouse. You know, like when you, if you're a lighthouse, you don't, you lighthouses don't chase ships down the, you know, down the beach, they stand still and they, you know, they, they light the way for, you know, boats and ships to come through. And so, by you standing in your power and your light, this is what's happening and it's beautiful. It's such a beautiful message, Thank you.

Lucie the Light 31:02

I love that metaphor. Thank you for sharing that. Seeing that the tower doesn't run after the boats is really powerful, and I haven't. I never saw it that way. And yes, I will send kind of messages and if they're well received, fine. If not, I did what I had to do, because people are ready or not, and it's not my decision, it's their decision. So just being like you said, standing in my power, in my sovereignty and having healthy boundaries, because I used to want to save everybody, no, you can't save anybody. If they don't want to be saved, you can't save them. And it's not my purpose to save people. I'm here to be the model, inspire them and if they need the guidance, I'm right here waiting for them.

Laura Muirhead 32:12

Yeah, I love that, and that's the thing too. This is another thing that you know, I've learned along the way, is that you, you, you, you. When you're ready, you're ready. You know you can't teach someone who's not ready.

Laura Muirhead 32:22

And again, so many things that you're bringing up have to do with the archetypes of the queen code that I have in my program, and one of them is the night, and that the night actually has three versions, and one of them is, you know, the knight in shining armor out to save everyone. And you know, and yeah, it doesn't work, and that's one of the stories you know, when we go through the queen code is that how can we? How can we change that story? Because, yeah, and really, when you think about it, if you, if you try that, if you try to push everything, your beliefs or whatever on other people, they're not going to react in a in a positive way anyway. So you know that it it generally pushes people away more than it attracts them. So, again, this is it's a matter of attracting. You know, when you're, you know, being Lucy, the light out in the world, it's an attraction, not a pushing away, and that you know, that's beautiful.

Lucie the Light 33:25

Yeah, when, when people see how happy you are and how joyful you are, well, they want some of that and they look at you and they learn from you. And that's perfectly, perfectly done because, like you said, uh, we save ourselves and that's it, and from there we're being examples, models, inspirations, and, yeah, life is easier yeah, I with that.

Laura Muirhead 34:00

I had a friend years ago who you know was always happy and always. And you are. You're like I want, I want what she has. You know, kind of like in the when Harry met Sally. In that, in that scene it's like, oh, I'll have what she's having. Why is she so happy? What's going on? And that's it Like again. To me this is the ripple that goes out into the world of you know, if you just show up as yourself.

Lucie the Light 34:31

And yeah, sorry for interrupting you, and I just I want to make it clear that it's not always pink. I do have my struggles and my challenges and that's part of life. It goes up and down, but mostly now, from the life I had, it's much more fulfilling Because I know I have clarity in my mind and in my heart and when I make decisions they are really clear, like I know exactly what I need to do to be on my right path on this journey of mine. So, yeah, I do have struggles. I'm not, like always happy.

Lucie the Light 35:25

I can be sad and sometimes I get angry with my husband we're still human but we chose each other and that's why I'm learning in a lot and that's why we are together, because, yeah, I get angry and he gets angry, and then we and then we fall in love again and it's all okay and yeah, that's life.

Laura Muirhead 35:54

Well, and I think that's an important point to bring up as well. As much as we're talking about being light and being in alignment and you know all these things, it is important to you know, acknowledge that we are still human and we will still have times when we're angry or sad or have those days when you maybe just want to hide under the covers, and you know, but those you know, when you as long as you don't sit and live in those forever and ever and ever like again look at those and acknowledge them and say you know, why am I sad, why am I mad? What you know, it's okay, it's okay. And what can I, you know, potentially learn from this as well? Is there something I can learn from it?

Laura Muirhead 36:36

And not to glaze over it at all, I'm not trying to say everything you know is going to, is going to turn out and be like oh, yippee, skippy down the road at all, but yeah, I think it's an important point to make that we definitely we're still human and there are going to be these things, and you know, I think, for me at least, you know when you were talking about triggers, I can generally now, for the most part, not always see the triggers for what they are and see them.

Laura Muirhead 37:09

You know that, oh, I can acknowledge that's a trigger for me, and how can I navigate that? Or how can I ask another person to deal with that with me? You know, if it, if it, if it means that much, um, or you know, like I said, just for me to say, okay, I know that's a trigger for me and I know why, and you know, hopefully not respond in in the in the crazy way that maybe I don't mean crazy, but in the maybe an explosive way or a really negative way, that that I used to respond to some of those things.

Lucie the Light 37:48

So, yeah, yeah, making sense of our triggers is the beginning of transformation. When we get clarity about, okay, what just happened. Why are you reacting like this and asking questions that will bring us into a deeper, getting us into a deeper reflection, so that we can okay, oh, okay, now I know what this is all about. This happened when I was young and a lack of respect. And then this happens right now because I'm feeling the same way as at that point, at that moment, at that point, at that moment, and to say that's not really what's the reason or the story that is happening actually right now, in this present moment, but our brain, hmm, our brain, we need to train our brain. I've got this journaling prompt on Wednesdays and on Monday. I've got motivation Monday and I want to talk about how we can train our brains and, yeah, we need to be in our bodies and less in our minds, but we need to understand and make things clear in our mind, because we get so confused with all these kinds of information and we get lost and we lose patience and we need to clarify things in our minds and there are things we need to put away for now and focus on one thing at a time and have an intention, an objective, and we need to move forward. We need to have objectives and visions of what it is that we are yearning for. We can't just stay there and wait, Like people are like okay, divine abundance, bring me what I need. There's no magic with that. Divine abundance will show you your path, but you need to do something with it. But you need to do something with it. And we're all about taking care of ourselves and not being too anxious. Well, I'm sorry, because anxiety is part of our lives forever, but we can choose the kind of anxiety that we want to experience. There's the good one and there's the depressive one, and if we go into the depressive one, we want to avoid anxiety. Well, we create more anxiety. So that's not the good path to go, and that's when we are just wanting to be protected and not doing anything. No, we need to be in movement. We need to baby steps. We don't have to save the world, have a big mission.

Lucie the Light 41:09

One little step and how I see my vision as being a worldwide speaker. When I say that I calm down and I see a ladder and my ladder has so many steps and those steps are little dragons that I will conquer one after the other. I don't want to go up there right now. I'm not ready. I need to get those skills. Don't want to go up there right now, I'm not ready, I need to get those skills. So learning.

Lucie the Light 41:45

My word for 2024 is visibility showing up, because in my family I was invisible. Thank God for that, because now I want to be visible. I learned from that and it's my worst fear. But I know it's my worst fear and it's okay. I want to conquer it. But I'm going to take little baby steps, little dragons, one after the other, and I'm going to reach it eventually. And if I don't in this lifetime, I'll do it in my next life. And if I don't in this lifetime, I'll do it in my next life. No pressure, that's how we follow our purpose. People think that, oh my God, she's got her purpose. Oh my God, let her. Give her the way, give her some space. I am not special. We are not special. We are unique. We all have this code in our dna of our own true purpose. Everyone we don't know that. We need to know that we all have a purpose yeah, well, I want to talk.

Laura Muirhead 42:55

I I love a lot of what you just said, um. One of the things I wanted to touch on um was the um, the point of, yeah, you can have your desires, um, but you can't just sit there and and expect it to be handed to you. So I think this is about definitely about meeting the universe halfway, you know, taking inspired action and, like you said, visualizing this. It's funny because, again, my my theme for April is there's so much of what you're bringing up that is is aligned with with what I've got going on, and my theme for April is the energy of receiving and opening up to receiving, and part of that is, you know, is having it, you know, setting your intention, having a clear intention, gratitude, visualization, but also part of it is taking aligned action, like taking, you know, aligned or inspired action. You have to meet the universe part way.

Laura Muirhead 44:06

And I love what you're saying about the steps as well because, you know, again, my mentor frequently says the path will grow. You, if you jumped, you know we don't jump from the bottom step to the top floor. It doesn't. That's not how we get up the stairs. And if you get, like what you said, if we, if we went there, if you did magically leap there, you wouldn't be ready for it anyway, things would come at you. And so each, like you're saying, saying each step helps you prepare for the next step, the next step, but again, like, what you put out is what you'll get back.

Laura Muirhead 44:43

And you know, like law of attraction and so to it is. It's all these things like if you for abundance to show up in your life, for you to be in the energy of receiving, uh, all receiving all that the universe has to offer you. There's so many steps to the energy of that and opening up. And sometimes, you know, sometimes the universe is delivering to you and you're like, no, no, no. Like maybe you're like, ah, I want a cake, and here's the eggs and here's the flour, and you know, here's the chocolate and here's the milk, and you're like, no, no, no, I want a cake. It's like, no, here's all the ingredients you have to make it. Like you start, get a bowl, get a bowl and put everything together. You know like we pass by sometimes the opportunities, we don't see them because we want no, I want the complete, I want it complete.

Lucie the Light 45:41

No, you have to take action as well on this journey, absolutely, and I love that analogy with the cake. And one thing we forget is to allow and let go because we need to surrender. Sometimes we're so determined to get something done or accomplish something and sometimes we need to just let go, allow and surrender and things will line up. If it's meant to happen, it's going to happen. And I used to be very controlling, just like my mom. I would control everything when I wanted something because of the deceptions I had when I was a young child. So in my adult life I would say, well, I'm going to do it that way because this is going to happen, and, oh my God, I would bump my head against the center glass ceiling Over and over again Because of wanting things like I didn't need. So Just surrendering and okay, put that idea out there, stay with it In silence and really See if this is what is meant to happen and not get attached to an outcome yeah, yeah, I mean I.

Laura Muirhead 47:08

I so agree with that. Like, put it out there what your intention is, but we don't always know how that's going to happen. We don't always know how it's going to show up. The how isn't always our our. Our issue is the universe can provide the how if we stay, like what you're saying, in alignment of what our desire is, if we have clarity and put the energy you know out there. I love this, I love the message, yeah.

Lucie the Light 47:33

And if your how is big enough, the why will, or if your why is big enough, the how is going to present itself Right. So knowing exactly, feeling it and embodying it, it's the start of it, and just being who you're meant to be, in other words.

Laura Muirhead 47:56

Yeah, showing up authentically as yourself is so powerful. Thank you, thank you, laura.

Lucie the Light 48:04

This is awesome. I love doing this with you.

Laura Muirhead 48:09

I love hearing your story and your journey and it's amazing and inspiring and incredible how you've come so far and, you know, healed your body and, along the way, you know, healed, healed your soul.

Lucie the Light 48:26

My soul. Yes, exactly, yeah, yeah, and if I can do it, we can all do it, and that's why I'm here. I want this message to message to touch the world. I'm working right now on a signature talk. It's my second and it's all about life meaning, our purpose, why we're here, why we're here to accomplish who we're here to serve and to really slow down and ask ourselves who am I? Who am I really? Not your name, your labels, your titles, your rank, your hierarchy or whatever it is that business you're in, really, deeply inside, who are you?

Laura Muirhead 49:16

Yeah, yeah, that's going to be amazing. I'm sure that's an amazing speech, that you have the talk that you have coming out, that will really be inspiring as well. And I just think that so many times, like you said with the, that when you hit the brick wall, that that is where you're like OK, I get it, I have to stop, I have to figure something else out. I can't. I mean literally, you literally couldn't have gone forward in the way you were because you couldn't walk like, you couldn't take any steps forward. So the healing had to happen, both physically and, you know, emotionally and spiritually. So that's amazing.

Lucie the Light 49:59

Yeah, it saved my life, that disability. When I think of it now, I see myself like crying, lying in a bed, not being. And I was really active and I did a lot of sports and I was like 39 at the time, almost 20 years ago. And I was like 39 at the time that, almost 20 years ago. And right now I speak from this, this car. I don't speak from the wound anymore because I know that it was a blessing. It slowed me down. My body said you're not listening, I'm going to put you on hold and you're going to listen. And oh, did I ever listen? Yep.

Laura Muirhead 50:42

Yeah, you had to, and that's the thing. You can't possibly imagine what your life would have been like. You know, if you wouldn't have changed, if you wouldn't have healed, you know what would you be doing. Still, you know, in a wheelchair, in a, you know, maybe walking with a walker, and so it's incredible, and I think this is an important message to that we do have our bodies have incredible ability to heal, yeah, yes, absolutely Absolutely.

Lucie the Light 51:15

I had this pain in my left foot for at least 10 years. I fasciate and I had some. We put them in our shoes, those plastic things anyway and I started to talk to my body and tell it that this pain didn't belong to me and I was done with it because I don't understand why this is here. I'm already moving forward with my purpose. This doesn't belong to me. That was it. I was like I can, I really did it, I tried it and I believe now that we definitely can heal our own bodies, because this pain was the it did I. If no, didn't belong to me, so it it left. When I explained to my body this is not helping me, I am already. I got the message. I am moving forward. I'm putting one foot in front of the other, following my purpose. This might've been good five, 10 years ago. Right now, not anymore, since 2020, I'm following my purpose and that was it. It left my body. So, yeah, we can heal ourselves.

Laura Muirhead 52:35

So, yeah, we can heal ourselves. Yeah, I agree, and I have actually I have a couple of books about that, and what the different pains in your body you know, and one of them is Louise Hay's book about it.

Laura Muirhead 52:50

But I also have recently, more recently, been doing a lot of going down the rabbit hole of grounding and you know how that can change our energy and, like you're talking about meditation, and how that can change our energy and change ourselves, you know, like this, even literal science behind it. So, yeah, I'm so with you on on all of these things. It's amazing.

Lucie the Light 53:17

So, yeah, I just had a thought, because my talk, my signature talk, I started with saying that, that that we, we don't, we're scared of our power, we don't realize how powerful we can be, and that's, that's part of it, because I imagine if everybody on earth would follow their purpose and following your purpose is obviously serving, serving yourself and then serving how the world would be yeah, yeah, I think that is a beautiful message to wrap up with, um and I I mean there's so many just incredible juicy nuggets that you've shared with us today.

Laura Muirhead 54:10

I'm sure our listeners are going to be so inspired. So, before we wrap up our number one, are there any last thoughts that you want to share? Before we wrap everything up?

Lucie the Light 54:23

The only thing I'm thinking right now is to spark a reflection. I want people, I invite people, people to start a reflection of who they truly are, deep down, connecting with your soul and giving yourself a chance, giving ourselves this chance of because we're going through life and we're not enjoying ourselves and it's really painful right now what we're going through and I think we just need to slow down and reconnect with our truest self, because we forgot who we truly are.

Laura Muirhead 55:17

Yeah, I love that. One of the things I just want I don't know I feel like inspired to add to that is part of that is accepting personal responsibility because, like you're saying, so much of us we give our power away, but we give it away in good ways sometimes, but we also give it away in bad ways sometimes, but we also give it away in in bad ways. And to me, you know, when you're, when you're not taking personal responsibility and kind of waving your finger at everybody else and not accepting responsibility for things in your life, that's not helpful as well. But I love this message that you've, message that you've shared you know, to give yourself a chance.

Lucie the Light 56:03

Yes, give yourself a chance and stop trying to get validation from other people. Validate yourself, love yourself. It starts with love, love yourself.

Laura Muirhead 56:16

It starts with love. I love that. So, lucy the light, thank you so much for joining me. You have prosper with purpose. I will put your socials in the show notes, but just share with our listeners what where they can find you on social media, your website or whatever.
