What if you felt free to flow with your life's purpose? Maybe you would like to write a book, facilitate groups, or start a podcast to share your voice, but putting yourself out there feels too overwhelming, or fatigue and frustrating physical symptoms get in the way. Alternatively, maybe you want to make a difference while expressing your gifts, and engaging in experiences that light you up, but worry that you could not support yourself.

If you have been wondering if it's possible to realize your dreams, you are not alone. For empaths-those who feel others' emotions as if they are their own-it is not easy to turn away from the needs and expectations of others. Many have learned to people-please, soothe, fix, perform, and problem-solve to minimize the chances of feeling the discomfort of others' pain within their own body; however, it has often come at the expense of asking themselves what they desired.

Your community needs your empathic gifts, but what if they could be applied in an empowered way-where you can be of service while feeling free?

This collection of poems is for you if you feel lost in the needs of others, and want to breathe more fully. You're invited to join an empath's healing journey and explore the connection with your Whole-Self: mind, body, spirit, heart. Kelly C. Mullen's poems, and the questions that follow, call you into spaces where you can relax and tune into your inner wisdom, so you can flow with your life's purpose, and experience a life of connection, fulfillment, and joy.
