A Tale of Two Girls

Once upon a time, there was a fierce little girl with a fiery personality. She stood up to bullies and protected those who needed it; she loved to dance and sing and be the center of attention. Her imagination ran wild, and her dreams were grand! There was no stopping her! She knew things others didn’t (or wouldn’t); she could see the dichotomy in the people around her. Because, like many children, she could see beyond the visible, she would get confused when adults would deny things she knew to be true. It was enough to make her doubt herself.

Once upon a time, there was a calm, nice little girl. She was quiet and could hear both what was said and unsaid. She made herself small so no one would notice her, and she learned so much about grownups this way. She often chose to be alone, losing herself in books that took her to other worlds.

These two young girls were me. But as I grew, so did the recognition that these two aspects of me were in conflict. To fit in, to belong, to be loved, I learned that one was more acceptable than the other. The docile girl, after all, was easier to manage and didn’t make waves. The fierce little girl was “problematic,” said the adults, and needed to be suppressed. That created a divide within myself as one part wasn’t okay. How could I be both? I felt like people - even my family - didn't understand me.

Fortunately, my spiritual journey led me back to myself. In my work with archetypes, I met with a new one: Paradoxia.

Who is Paradoxia?

Paradoxia is our ally in moving from a Duality Paradigm (right/wrong, either/or) into a Paradox State (both/and) where we don’t need to deny any parts of ourselves in the doomed quest for social conformity.

There is so much more to say and discover about Paradoxia! That’s why I created a course that invites you to connect with her and start to heal your inner divide by integrating all the parts of you that you pushed aside, consciously or unconsciously. They’re still there, waiting to be reunited with the rest of you.

Birth of Paradoxia is a 5-week journey with 6 live calls where you will connect with and reveal your own inner Paradoxia in a painting you will create, one layer at a time.
