Taking the Leap: Aligning Business with Your Soul Purpose and Building a Life with Intention by Adelina Emmi

Ever felt the pull toward something greater, but didn’t know if you were ready for it? That was me when I left my 9-5 for my side hustle.

The Leap of Faith

I had no idea what was going to happen. Sometimes I think back to those moments and see how brave I must have been, unaware of what I was about to embark on. It’s funny how sometimes our past selves can be our greatest teachers.

The unknown was scary.

I believe if we don’t take the leap, the universe will eventually make us feel so uncomfortable that we just go "I have no choice," I have to do this.

You might know this feeling being through it or it could be new to your journey. Wherever you are, I want to remind you that you are not alone here.

But I did it. And I know now that anybody can do this if it’s their calling. Anybody.

Finding Your Purpose

When I started my journey, I didn’t know I had a ‘purpose’. But I knew there was a higher power pushing me in another direction that I never thought I would go.

The calls got so loud that I had no choice but to listen. They came in whispers, screams, signs from others. They often just stumbled across my lap.

You have to listen to the signs or they will quite literally slap you in the face.

The signs led me to what I would call my purpose now. Helping others pursue their dreams, whatever they might be. See, I had always done this throughout my life.

Whether it was helping my parents, friends or it was in the work I did helping other businesses grow. I literally walked the path, without even knowing it.

But something inside me pulled me toward a more conscious version of this. A version where my work with the other, leads to their work with the other and we create ripple effects of light across humanity.

What is a burning desire inside you that you feel you always had a pull towards?

That is how I found my purpose.

Overcoming Doubts

I know now that there is no limit to our endeavors. We can do almost anything we want to on this planet, if we dare. Our hopes, dreams and deepest desires are in us for a reason. We don’t feel these for no reason. Yes, some might be from the ego, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t a part of us. They absolutely are.

When we start to accept these parts of us, that’s when we truly know what we want.

Then we get it. We break down what we think we want, to get to what we truly want.

Sometimes they are the same, sometimes very different. It’s about as simple and complicated as that.

New Age Spirituality and Personal Beliefs

Some New Age spirituality often discourages our desires, but I’ve learned that they can be powerful indicators of what’s meant for us, if we approach them with clarity and alignment.

I’ve been through the motions of ‘I don’t need that’. I’ve been through the motions of that a fully prosperous life is only for the people who are bad in the world.

But as I dug deeper into my psyche, I knew in my core that wasn’t true.

As I aligned my beliefs, a whole world of opportunities and people with the same beliefs suddenly came into my peripheral.

One thing that always stuck with me and I couldn’t ignore were the feelings I had. The emotions attached to receiving what I asked for. I knew I couldn’t ignore this.

I was living the life I always dreamed of and I was able to do that because I believed that I could have it.

This feeling continually stuck with me. It was as if it felt like home. When the feeling felt like home, true in my body, that’s when I knew that I was where I was meant to be.

A good indicator for me was I would get emotional for no apparent reason. I often start crying tears of happiness.

Some people get goosebumps, some get overpowering sensations in their body.

Find your ‘this is it, home’ feeling and you will never feel lost ever again on this journey.

Aligning Your Purpose With Your Business

We all have a purpose here, some simpler than others.

I once thought my purpose was to get married, have children and build a house with a white picket fence. Maybe that was my path once upon a time. We will never know.

Ask yourself, what is your purpose in the now? Is it to help people on a grand scale, a small scale or 1 on 1? Is your purpose to open a retreat to help other mums fulfil their dreams? Is your purpose to be a mum? Is it to open an ice-cream shop, selling all your favorite ice-cream flavors? Is it to just be here in the moment? Whatever it is, it is yours and it is unique to you.

Nobody can ever take your dreams away from you, well except you.

You are in control. You can take the drivers seat of wherever the whispers send you.

Take back your sovereignty of your life and say yes.

That is how you align your purpose with your business.

You find what is in alignment to you by getting to a space of fully surrendering to the whispers of the universe. Then you follow your purpose, your desires, your dharma and you intertwine that essence in everything that you do.

Be it making videos, writing blogs, creating, speaking, just being. Whatever you are doing, pour your true essence into it, no matter what direction society pulls you.

Go in your direction. Follow your north.

My Journey to The Now

As I sit in Lisbon at a cafe surrounded by soft playful music and the sound of people laughing and coffee brewing, I am writing this. I acknowledge that my dream of having a fully remote passion that allowed me to be wherever I wanted and stay in the most amazing places in the world has become who I am.

I didn’t listen when people told me that wasn’t real life.

I didn’t listen when people told me my desires are just my ego.

I listened to my body, where it wanted me to go and I never said no to her. I let her lead the way.

This took a lot of inner work. It took many days of sadness, depression, crying for hours on end. I had more heart clenching, ego deaths than cats have lives.

Each time I faced an ego death, it felt like a weight on my chest, but lighter each time as I let go of the old me.

I had to fully let go of the old Adelina that didn’t believe she could have the life that she wanted or deserved.

Sometimes she creeps back, but I now have the tools to keep her at bay.

Your Next Steps

If you are at a place where you don’t know what step to take next or how to get started, my advice to you is to look to those teachers that inspire you and try some of the tools that they suggest.

If you are at a place where you have a great toolbox, fantastic, ask yourself, what else is it that I need to keep moving forward with conviction? Do I need encouragement? Do I need more structure? Do I need a blueprint?

This is your reminder that this all takes time. Work on your own timeline, not on others.

Don’t look at what others are doing but rather feel into what feels good for you. Then you will start to walk alongside your highest timeline. Exactly where you’re meant to be.

No rush, just you.

Just as I trusted my path, know that yours is unfolding perfectly, too.

Next step, align yourself with people that are aligned with your desires, your hopes & dreams.

Because those people will never remind you that you can’t have them.

Surround yourself with people that encourage you to take the leap.

What I am Here to Do

Knowing that I had these people on my side, I knew it was something that I wanted to offer to others. I had spent years helping others grow their own businesses in the 3D sense, now it’s time for me to help people in this new paradigm that I was walking into on a personal level.

I wanted to merge the two together.

I wanted to merge my 14+ years knowledge in the marketing & digital space with my intuitive guidance.

I want to help you find your true north, align with your dreams, your desires and encourage you to move closer and closer to them with full conviction that you are exactly where you are meant to be. Throw in some real world marketing tactics that align with what feels good to you, not the algorithm, and we have a recipe for deep energetic success.

I want to help encourage you to live out your wildest dreams so that every day you wake up with a fire in your belly knowing you get another day to make an impact here on earth in whichever way that you desire.

It all starts with you.
