When You Change… But the World Around You Doesn’t

Discover the meditation community

you’re welcome to join us.

Where change is normal, coherence is daily, and you can show up exactly as you are—

And if you need a space where you don’t have to explain yourself—

Everything happens just as it has to, at the time it’s meant to happen.

So be patient.

But because you became someone worth following.

Not because you pushed them.

And they’ll want to know how to feel that way too.

They’ll tell you they’ve been watching. They’ve seen the light in you.

Someone you didn’t expect will ask you for advice.

But then—one day—you’ll get a message.

And that’s okay too.

Some relationships will shift into something different.

It takes two to tango.

Some connections will crumble—but not because of you.

Sometimes they just need more time to come around to your new self.

Be patient with the people around you.

 

One More Thing… Be Patient

The new ones will help you go further.

The old connections helped you get here.

None of it is wasted.

Because people come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.

But also take a moment to honor what’s coming in.

So yes, you may grieve what you’re losing. That’s human.

 

Let It All Belong

These new relationships feel like we’ve known each other for lifetimes.

And the most beautiful part?

People who are shaping our future with us, not trying to pull us back into the past.

People who met the new us, not the old one.

New friends. New family.

Now, we have calls, Zooms, meetups, invitations, shared travels.

Not in the way we expected or even wanted—but in the way the universe designed it.

A new world opened up for us.

We now have to remind ourselves to write people back—because the connections have become so abundant, we can barely keep up.

A few weeks ago, we sat together and realized something:

It felt like we had outgrown the world—but nothing had grown to replace it.

Our WhatsApp was silent. No calls. No chats. Nothing.

Gathering a group felt impossible.

When Vincent and I started doing this work, there was a time when it felt like we had no one around us.

And we gain new people.

We open up to love in a way we’ve never known before.

We break old patterns and generational pain.

We gain confidence.

But what about what we gain?

We always talk about what we lose on this path—friendships, shared history, familiarity.

 

There Are Two Sides to the Medal

“If you’re always waiting for the world to change before you do, you’ll be waiting forever. The world follows you—when you go first.”

—Dr. Joe Dispenza

You’re becoming the version of you that might just lead them forward.

You’re not leaving them behind.

Staying small so others feel comfortable—that’s the real betrayal.

Growth is never selfish.

But here’s what I’ve learned:

  • “Is it selfish to grow when others aren’t ready?”
  • “Can I still belong here?”
  • “What if I lose the people I love?”

We start asking ourselves things like:

But sometimes the real challenge is holding that change—while surrounded by people and systems that haven’t shifted with you.

So many of us start this journey thinking the hard part will be the actual change.

If you’ve ever felt this… you’re not alone.

 

You’re Not Broken. You’re Becoming.

And that’s when the loneliness creeps in.

Even your loved ones look at you with a flicker of confusion.

The jokes don’t land the same.

The food tastes the same.

You walk back into your kitchen, your office, your WhatsApp group chats—and it’s like stepping back into an old costume that no longer fits.

It’s landing back in your day-to-day life—only now, you’re different, and everything else… isn’t.

It’s what comes after.

It’s not even the wave of clarity or emotion that rushes through after a breakthrough.

It’s not the meditation where you finally feel something shift.

It’s not the moment you crack open your heart.

There’s a part of the work that nobody really talks about.
