OVERCOME INFERIORITY 💫

Growing up in obscure places where there were not many examples of successful or fulfilled people, I myself often struggled with feelings of inferiority and like I don’t belong, especially in the places I wished to be.
Tired of the countless rejections, being treated disrespectfully and feeling like I couldn’t win or be a part one of the winning crowd, I deeply prayed for an answer, and I came across this power verse in the bible:
‘I promised you what I have promised Moses, wherever you set your foot, you will be on land that I have given you.’ Joshua 1:3

As I meditated on this word and received it in my heart, I realised that God has placed me in this world and in the industries I work in, and that by his power, and being a part of his spiritual family, I have been given power and authority over the land, industry and every place I walk in and are part of.

This simple truth freed my heart from fear and began to undo all the insecurities and inferiorities I had felt.
It gave me a new boldness and an unshakable confidence, that my presence has been purposed here, I belong here and I will complete the work I came here to do, regardless of any single opinion or intimidation that tries to come my way.

Spend time with God, and meditate on his word.
Receive the powerful truths in your heart and you will remember who you are, who you belong to and the immense power you carry within.

YOUR FRIENDS ARE KILLING YOU 💔

Are you keeping people around because you don’t want to feel lonely? While true friends are a blessing, keeping people around who are not in alignment with your purpose, goals or values could be detrimental. This is especially true when it comes to following our dreams.
When you choose to break out of the everyday and pursue your purpose, you may not find the support you expected.

Aiming for a better life changes the atmospheres in which we operate and not everyone is at the same stage. Some people will act supportive, some hang around because they want the blessings without the work, and some stay close to hold your feet down, because they don’t want you to do better than them, or leave them behind. Not everyone who smiles is happy for you. A lot of this comes from a fear based, lack and scarcity mindset.

When you’re starting out a new path, idea, business or project, be very careful of who you tell and who you surround yourself with.
I made the severe mistake of telling people my dreams, plans and ideas in the beginning stages, and I’ve seen negative energy from some of closest people around me projected onto me - dismantling my life and delaying me heavily from where I could have been by now.

We pick up the energy, feelings and emotions of others, and the negative forces in this world are very heavy, that’s why it is of the utmost importance to protect your energy.
Keep your plans, goals and ideas private and let the results speak for themselves. Protect your energy and keep it high.

Be okay walking alone sometimes, and when you stay focused and calm, you will attract a handful of new people on the same frequency that you can trust and who will encourage you to go further. This is what has happened for me.
Don’t make the same mistakes that I have.
You came here to do something wonderful on this planet. Know that the gifts and dreams that you have within are there for a reason.
This is the work you came to this earth to do, and you will finish it.

OVERCOME OVERWHELM & ACHIVE THE IMPOSSIBLE 🧗‍♀️

For many years I have always felt that I was born for a purpose. That I came to earth to do something significant, but my life did not match the desires in my heart. Although I wanted them and the life of my dreams so much, they just seemed so big, too far away and almost impossible to achieve.
As I was praying for answers, I came across this power verse from the bible:
‘Nothing shall be impossible for you” Matthew 17:20

As I focused on this word and accepted it as truth in my heart, I realised that God, the maker of our entire universe and everything in it lives within me, and that His power moves through me too.
That even though this looks impossible to achieve on my own, through Gods power in me, nothing is impossible.

I have held onto this word for many years and have seen childhood dreams come to pass in my life that did not make any sense, considering the negative environments and limited places I came from.

When we choose God and put our trust in him, giving him permission to move through us, meditate on His word and receive it as truth in our heart, there is nothing that is impossible for us.
God gives us the pure desires of our heart that are directly connected to our purpose here on earth, and what may look out of reach for us is nothing compared to the power of our God and what he can do in our lives.

FAITH IS YOUR WEAPON 🏹

The power of Faith and what we can create out of the beauty that springs up from the depths of our hearts and the corners of our minds - the ideas and purposes that can literally change the face of this earth are imprinted within each of us.
We’re living in a society, culture and system that has been created to block us from discovering who we really are. Constructs to blind us from truth, disempower and discourage us from thinking outside the box and create a fear of taking action with lies and a promise of consequences if we dare step out.

If our lives are shaped by our thoughts, and our good thoughts are created by our pure desires, and pure desires come from God, if we simply chose to think in a different way, we would receive completely different results. A knowledge, wisdom and power that when shared with enough people , we really could see a completely transformed world in our lifetimes. A truly liberating and purposeful life that I am willing to take on and encourage you to also.

Never underestimate the power of your faith and what you can create from your heart and mind and bring into this physical realm.
God has already equipped you with the right ideas and desires, with a life purpose to transform this world into something beautiful, something that brings light to people and the planet and will leave a legacy that continues to uplift, empower and encourage people for generations to come.

It starts with us. We have a choice of which path we decided to take, choose to believe in and tap into.
It’s all there. We must take courage to take action on what we already know to do, even if it doesn’t match the reality we are currently experiencing. To do what’s unpopular, to unlearn the lies and pave a new path no matter how uncomfortable it may feel.
No pain lasts forever and if we continue to push through long enough, we will see our dreams realised in this present life. 🙏💛

If you’re feeling stuck in your life with an absence of peace, this prayer is for you.
Take a moment to breathe and calm your mind. Remind yourself that Gods power is already within you and that his peace flows through you.

Feel His power ignite your spirit and ask Him to show you the great life He already has for you. Visualise this new reality and believe it to be done in your heart and in your mind.

Thank God for being with you, and for His help to see it manifested.

Spend some time with God today, and meditate on His word:
‘With God on my side I will win, He will defeat my enemies’
Psalms 108:13

GET YOUR NEW LIFE 👑E:6
In this podcast episode, we reflect on what it takes to get out of a life of darkness and how to step into a new life of light.
A very important self transformation revelation that answers why so many of us are struggling to get to where we want to go no matter what we seem to try, and what we need to change to see our lives prosper.
Lakshmi shares some of her recent realisations and personal stories in embarking on this truth, and the significant impact it has had in changing her life for the better.
When we place God at the centre of everything we do and do not compromise on our purpose, values and goals, we cannot be distracted or delayed (for long) from getting to where we want to go.

‘The Lord your God is going with you, and he will give you victory.' (Deuteronomy 20:4)

In this episode, we reflect on what it takes to get out of a life of darkness and how to step into a new life of light. A very important self transformation ...

To new beginnings, new horizons and a deeper level of faith that we barely knew was possible. Our mission has always been to share the light in our world, to bring healing to our planet and all people and encourage others to live their greatest lives. To know that your dreams and visions really are possible, that your life matters and that you are here to do something great on this planet.
Life is filled with ups and downs as we all know very well, but regardless of what happens, these circumstances never change who we really are and what we are born to do. The key is to have faith and take action on what you already know, to use the resources that you have in your hands and in your own backyard today. Everything else will work it self out.

Recently we dropped off Susan’s (Bee) latest artistic masterpiece for The Archibald prize 🎨at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.
This mixed media piece features Lakshmi at a very pivotal moment of transition, were the idea for a life changing podcast was born and soon to launch end of May! Lakshmi Bee Podcast 🎥🎙️.
The art work is made of our signature Lakshmi Bee fabric scraps and remnants, collected from our past works and vintage / pre-loved items ♻️✂️ up-cycled into this incredible artwork.

Special thank you to Helen Pitt for the lovely interview and Louise Kennerley for the photo for The Sydney Morning Herald 📸📰
More to come very soon!

‘Always remember, that the dreams and visions you see in your heart and mind are real, that it’s never too late to pursue them - no matter your age, background, race and that your best days are always ahead’ 🙏
