REAL, RAW, RELATABLE The Dance Between Faith & Action
I found something the other day—a letter buried in the pages of my 2020 journal. A letter from my future self—2023 Kat—written to 2020 Kat. And reading it now, with the perspective I have today, it hit me in a way I didn’t expect.
At the time, I was deep in my own push-and-pull with faith and action. Some days, I’d sit back and wait for the universe to do its thing, expecting clarity to just arrive—for the right opportunities, ideas, and next steps to be delivered to me, neatly wrapped with a bow. Other days, I’d swing hard in the other direction—hustling, grinding, trying to do it all on my own, convinced that if I didn’t keep moving, everything would fall apart.
And the letter? It reflected exactly what I needed to hear back then.
My future self didn’t say, “Kat, just trust, the universe has got you.” She also didn’t say, “Kat, work harder, you’re not doing enough.”
She said, “Keep going. Keep showing up. Keep making space for what’s unseen, and also take the next best step. Don’t force. Don’t wait. Move in alignment, and trust that what’s meant for you will meet you along the way.”
And that’s it, isn’t it? That’s the dance.
We don’t just sit back and hope. And we don’t just push until we break. We trust and we move. We listen and we act.
You plant the seed, but you also water it.
You set the intention, but you also take the step.
You trust that life is guiding you, but you also meet it halfway.
So, if you’re in that place right now—either waiting too much or pushing too hard—I want you to ask yourself:
- Where am I waiting when I should be moving?
- Where am I forcing when I should be trusting?
- Where am I out of balance in this dance?
Because the magic, the alignment, the things you couldn’t have orchestrated if you tried—they don’t just show up because you wish for them.
They meet you on the path.
