What If Nothing Is Missing In You?
As we move toward 2026, we start thinking about our goals, career changes, and resolutions. And while that is powerful, the real transformation often lies somewhere quieter.
Who am I becoming in the way I love, listen, and relate?
Recently, a client shared that close friends had told her she sometimes says things that lack empathy. She reflected, “There must be something missing within me.”
I gently reminded her: There is nothing missing. You already hold every quality you seek, love, compassion, emotional awareness. It is not a deficit; it is a practice.
We do not become more loving by trying harder, we become more loving by choosing differently.
In her case, the transformation begins with a simple shift.
Pause before speaking. Breathe. Ask, “What would love say here?”
That question invites you to be more conscious in your behavior and to listen to your higher awareness. It opens you to something deeper, what some call Infinite Intelligence or simply your intuition.
As she practices that, she is not changing who she is. She is revealing more of it.
That is expansion.
In 2026, Try This
Instead of asking:
“How do I get others to show up differently in my relationships?”
Ask:
“How might I show up differently, so our relationship has space to grow?”
As I teach in my Root and Rise yearly program:
- Love flows when we lead with clarity, not control.
- Relationships flourish when we allow freedom, not perfection.
- Showing up as a better version often requires unlearning what once helped us survive.
You do not need a perfect plan. Just willingness.
Becoming the Version of You Your Relationships Are Waiting For
Take a moment and ask:
- Which quality of love am I ready to nurture more intentionally this year?(Curiosity? Gentle honesty? Emotional presence? Compassion toward myself?)
- What pattern am I willing to release to allow deeper connection?(Overthinking? Fixing others? Shrinking? Holding back my truth?)
Because, as one of my trusted mentors reminds me:
“Once you change how you relate to yourself, your relationships begin to change around you.”
2026 Intention
“This year, I choose to lead with love rather than protection.
I practice presence before opinion.
I become the one who nurtures connection, not waits for it.
I honor others, and myself, by embodying the version of me I want to love from.”
You do not have to get it perfect. Just get it in motion.
To your expansion, your courage, and your becoming,
Edna
