Last week, I completed writing my fifth book.

A book I’ve shared about with you here. One that, at the last moment, revealed itself to be something else.

For a long time I believed it would be Embodied Money. I had been actively journeying with that title for 18 months, weaving together everything from magical chakra activations and connecting with the spirit of money, to grounded practical action. But no matter how I tried to shape it, something wasn’t quite landing. I couldn’t see how it was going to be a book about money.

Because it turns out – it wasn’t.

Just days before the words finally poured through, the book revealed its true essence:
Embodied Power (for visionary leaders).

Money, and your relationship with it, still plays a meaningful role. It’s included, and explored in depth. But there’s so much more.

I began to see how everything I’d been creating, the work I was doing with leaders, the threads in my business were all part of the same current. I even soft-launched a 1:1 programme called Embodied Power back in 2023, but at the time it didn’t feel quite ready. Now I can see: it was a part of the journey of what this book has become.

When I revisited old journal entries from the last few years, I noticed I had been writing about embodying my power again and again. It was all connected. It had always been forming.

Over the coming months, I’ll be sharing more about Embodied Power (before the book’s official arrival in November).

But today, I want to share a little about what this particular book has given (and continues to give) me.

Each of my books so far carries “Embodied” in the title — not as a concept, but as a lived experience. And each one has asked me to embody more of myself and my work in order to be written. Each book has taken me on a different journey.

Although the similar thread with my first four is that when I’ve completed it there’s an initial period of rest (it’s intense birthing a book); but then I’ve felt a separation from the energy of it. The book has its own life, and my job moving forward is to help complete it in any way needed, and then share it in the ways that feel aligned.

But this time, the book gave me a clear, ‘no’. It wasn’t ready to separate from me just yet.

What it wanted wasn’t momentum, it was integration, within my body. It still had ‘work’ to do: to, with, and through me.

As I let this process happen, the only thing I needed to do was be present in my body (and not try to do anything). It was time to become what I had just birthed.

I could feel the energy of the book in this new form as a vibration. It began in my back moving all the way up, then it began to seep into my blood, moving around and ending in my bones, my skin, in all of me.

I felt my cells shifting and expanding, as if the act of writing had re-written me. It lasted about three days and felt like a deep re-calibration, literally re-coding and re-wiring me. I could feel the threads of outdated beliefs and stories literally dissolve and float away. I was left with a clean slate that felt more like my true self than ever before.

It’s hard to describe, as it’s not intellectual. It’s deeply physical. Energetic. Embodied.

And now, just over a week since I submitted the manuscript, I can feel how easy it would be to skip this part. To rush into the next part of the process, to do the things I know I could be doing.

But the alchemy isn’t done with me yet, it’s still shifting and integrating. The invitation right now is to become the next version of who this book has called me to be. To embody a frequency I’ve always known in my bones, but now, I can feel more power-FULLY than ever before. I guess that’s what happens when you birth a book called Embodied Power.

I’m so looking forward to sharing more soon.
