I Tried to Save the World Until I learned to Save Myself
- June 5th, 2025
This #ThinkingThursday, I’m reflecting on how I tried to save the world, until I learned how to save myself 
The environmental and social destruction, violence, killing, abuse, weaponized and systemic neglect, in the name of the almighty dollar and power-over
Heinous acts of calculated manipulation, genocidee, degradation and austerity
I railed against oppression, gutting legislation, and ongoing institutional systems of colonial power dynamics; raged against the machine
So I co-founded a not-for-profit organization, planned & executed public educational events, pursued policy advocacy at municipal, provincial and federal government levels, with varying success
Then I even ran for politics twice; unsuccessful to office yet rich in experience
An active volunteer, it felt like my job to give a damn
As an empath, I can now sense how my heart chakra bleeds energy when I dwell in the ongoing devastation
I am well aware of my privileges, as a cisgendered white woman born of middle working class ancestry, able bodied, intelligent and educated in college with some university studies
WIth knowledge and information, I came to understand how human beings are psychologically vulnerable to programming and conditioning; think Pavlov’s dog who drools at the whistle experiment
Also, how our ego splits into pieces to cope with the damage inflicted, as trauma settles into our nervous systems after generations of damage
I’m fascinated by the different archetypes and dynamics that emerge to protect us
Thanks to #TheLoveYourVibeTransformation #innerWork I was exposed to Karpman’s Drama Triangle, which highlights the Perpetrator, the Victim, and the Saviour elements of our psyche
I’d been exposed to the first two concepts decades earlier with The Celestine Prophecy, yet this martyric, Saviourhood was new to me, and WHAM!! Did the Universe have a message for me
It’s not my job to fix all the world’s problems, to save people from each other, themselves.. to convince people to care enough to “do something, anything”..
I realized I complained a lot, and focused too much on what’s wrong
YES we need to actively engage as citizens of a nation to participate in democracy
What I came to understand is, it’s differently powerful to learn how to love ourselves deeply, and unconditionally with presence
When we learn about our biases and unlearn oppressive programming, we can better cultivate emotional intelligence and practice healthy boundaries for enhanced collaborative skills
I had to face my personal demons of embodied fear, rage, resentment, grief, and shame, that I had been avoiding and therefore projecting onto others, unwittingly perpetuating the cycle of trauma and torment
NOW when I show up in volunteer spaces, my energy is more in alignment, authentically supportive, for aligned purposes that speak with purpose and meaning from my heart
Not pointing fingers at problems and people, rather focusing on evidence-based solutions, exemplifying personal morals and ethics in action
I truly believe that Earthlings are facing one of two paths; to global obliteration where Gaia will survive, yet humans will create an inhospitable planet, or to #HeavenOnEarth as we relearn to walk a humble yet fierce path to Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion
With the #MiracleMagnetMovement, we nurture space where we’re Safer, Seen, Celebrated & Supported, to practice our #InnerWork of unlearning & relearning. Extreme Self Care, yet also community care
It’s one thing to understand and care about the power dynamics of our society, it’s another thing altogether to recreate the world you want to see
How is this resonating today?
