What is your SUPERPOWER?: Vulnerablilty

By Meghan McDonough -



This week's image is of a woman standing naked facing the sun cresting the ocean horizon. She stands without any protective layers. Arms open by her sides palms facing forward to receive the light of the sun.  


What is your super power? Do you have one? Have you ever thought of it? 

The message of vulnerability, as a force, has been coming forward a lot lately and specifically wanted to come forward this week. 

Often we hide and protect our vulnerability. Somewhere along the line we are taught that our vulnerability is a weakness or something that needs hiding. 

The message that has been coming up a lot lately is that of the complete opposite. 


Vulnerability is an access point to our light. To our energetic and unfaltering strength. Vulnerability often includes honesty, lack of ego, love, truth. I’ll tell you a secret. - where you are vulnerable is where your super power lies. It is the access point to your inner strength. 


So how do you find it? Taking a deep dive into what you are protecting. Now and historically. What and where are you covering up? Is it your voice through some sort of artistic expression? Is it the way you geek out over science? Is it your passion to spaz out and dance? Is it your need for equality and truth? Is it your want and need to see and be seen on a soul level? Is it your perceived weakness that drives you to help others observe theirs? Is it your massive capacity to love and feel? What do you protect? What happens when you stand naked, unobstructed bearing your superpower to the world. Knowing that whatever it comes up against - it will only get stronger the more you have FAITH in it. 


Vulnerability is light. The more you allow it to grow the stronger it gets. So feed it. Light is LOVE and LOVE will always trump fear.  


If you can, sit with this today. Meditate on where you protect yourself now and historically. 


Journal about when you first started to cover up and protect this part of yourself and why. Then meditate and journal envisioning you standing in your vulnerability strong, filled with light and let it grow. What happens? 


Big Buckets of Love, 

Till next week. 

Shine. ON!

Break the Mold

By Meghan McDonough -

I haven’t broken many limbs in my life, but when I had a fracture as a kid I still have visceral memories it. Memories of how the cast smelled, looked, felt, itched.  How weak my arm looked after and how much my arm reeked of dead skin once it was taken off.  The cast guided my bones to realign. My arm was left weak from its training. When it’s support was no longer needed, it was taken off. My arm needed to explore itself again and regain strength. In my mind, our souls are like my arm in that cast. Where and how we are placed on this earth is the mold.  The mold trains us to align with certain messages and experiences - lessons for our souls to learn before we are able to break free from the cast and explore how to move through this life without it.  There comes a time in everyone’s life where you can choose to stay in the mold, or break free and explore what’s on the other side.  If you allow it, the light of your soul can shine through and break the mold you were born with, reveali

Growth, Resilience and Embracing Your Journey

By Meghan McDonough -

The image coming forward this week is from the Magnetize Your Light Coloring Book and the title is, You Are So Strong. This week the idea, well there are several ideas, and the ideas are that one somehow once we get good at some thing we can change it or it no longer is a problem. For instance, when are you gonna stop doubting yourself. Maybe there's a time in life that you get so good at some thing that you stop doubting, or maybe you get so good at some thing and you do something for so long that it's no longer hard for you, or that as life continues at some point it gets easier. But that's not the case, it's an allusion I believe we tell ourselves. Because this world, this lifetime, is all about growth, at least in my perspective. When I change my perspective to that, that this life is not something to be conquered, but to be experienced, it shifts my ability to try and hold onto something, or to control something, or change something that can't be changed.  Beca

“Big Faith”

By Meghan McDonough -

"Big Faith" This image came out of a reading has been haunting me in the best way since.  A young woman stands on her path, blinded and stuck by the fog that lies ahead of her. The fog is blocking her from seeing her journey. Scared, filled with doubt she remains still. Stuck. Her guide encourages her to keep going. But all she sees is the fog.  Once she clears past the fog, her journey continues. She is challenged on her path, met by an icy river that she must cross by balancing on mini icebergs. Now she can see the beauty of the solid ground that lies ahead. Her faith and focus become one. There is sunshine, life, love, freedom, beauty on the other side of the fog (her fear). What is required of her is to have "Big Faith" (my new favorite term that a good friend and beautiful soul, Kristin McCurry, introduced to me.) Not just faith, but BIG FAITH and the courage to walk the path ahead.  I read a quote by Oprah years ago. "You find your path by walking it"
