Who’s Your 11:11?
Walk by faith, not by sight.
And here it goes, I’m facing my fears once again and doing what the universe has been guiding me to do, share my story. Last week I was so afraid that I actually deleted my Instagram just to void doing it, I thought to myself people will think I’m crazy. I’m choosing to trust and have faith in my guidance as I know that simply by sharing my story I just might help someone drowning in their grief.
It’s been an intense year and a half, with so much spiritual growth and transformation. Most that know me have watched the shift and change, which came from strengthening my faith in God from the moment I heard the news my father had passed. I prayed my way out of the darkest time of my life because I felt so hopeless and empty. I had reached a point in my life where 31 years of pain I had been carrying all finally decided it was time to pour out. I said to myself if this is what life is going to be like I don’t see the point in being here to continue suffering. I never gave up hope in seeking answers in life, death, and solutions for healing from my past. I started to slowly pull myself out of a dark place and I found purpose and meaning in life, what I had been searching for years before my father even passed away.
In September 2021 when I was guided by the universe to share my own personal self-love journey in front of complete strangers I had never felt as empowered in my life as I did at that moment. After that night I knew I was on the right path to fulfilling my life’s purpose. I was telling myself even if I cannot physically feel it I know my dad is guiding me through this all, that he was there with me. I started to finally start believing what everyone was telling me. I had only recently met Nicole Godette, as we were both speakers at the Celebrating Self-Love event. That night after the event Nicole and I were messaging about how successful the event was, on my response back to her she pointed out I messaged her at 1:11. I knew about angel numbers but never experienced them the way I did from that day forward. The next day at lunch with Jefryene we sat in front of a car with number plate 222 and just like that the angel numbers continued flowing in every day multiple times a day. I was overwhelmed because I had no idea what was going on and why the intensity. At the time 11:11 was the number I’d see the most frequently, I remember I said to myself well someone is thinking of me. About 20 mins later Nicole messaged me saying how she’d run into someone and my name came up. She’d asked to meet the following week for guidance with a project she was working on. I saw 11:11 every single day for 5 days leading up to our meeting. I couldn’t understand what the message was, I kept searching for answers online as to what the angel number 11:11 might mean because I knew it was trying to get my attention. Just before I went to my meeting with Nicole I checked online again, the article I read this time said that a deceased loved one might be trying to communicate with you. That was the first time in 2 weeks I felt calm and some kind of clarity, but still uncertain. I went to my meeting with Nicole and as we were talking I looked at her computer screen and the time read 1:11. I started telling her about the intensity of the angel numbers and how she was the only person they would relate back to, I couldn’t understand what it was trying to tell me. She told me well you have to figure out what it means to you. I said about what I read before coming to her, and she told me oh about that, that’s what you’re here for, I’m a medium. She said it so calmly not even realizing what was the elephant in the room to me. I knew at that moment my dad was trying to communicate with me to confirm to me that indeed he was guiding me. I got so excited! My dad knows me well enough to know that even if I wanted I wouldn’t easily approach someone for this service as I’m always skeptical about who to trust. So guiding me to someone was the only way to convince me. I had no doubt, that Nicole, was the real deal and indeed she was.
We’d agreed to arrange a meeting for her to try to connect with my father, I assured her he’s going to come through. However, during that meeting, he already came through. Nicole passed me her phone to look at something in relation to our meeting and said “Look at this and after I have to tell you something.” She said, “Your father says, at his funeral you said you were going to do something in his honor and he says you’re not doing it, to get moving.” And at that moment I knew exactly what he was saying as I had shared with my friends that I felt my purpose was somehow to get my dad’s message out to the world. We then scheduled our meeting for a session and so much of what Nicole channeled helped in my guidance on my journey. One of the first things he said about me was that I’m stubborn because I see the signs and know he’s communicating with me but I still dragged Nicole. I did because I was doubting myself I needed reassurance, and imagine after that I still had and have times I continue to doubt myself. From that moment on I continued on my journey to figuring out how to connect with him on my own. He shows up at times I need him, guides me to places, people, and things, and most definitely helps protect me. He lets me go at times to teach me lessons in silence for my own healing and growth, he’s been the greatest life coach from the other side. And while nothing can replace the physical presence of a loved one, I am extremely grateful to be able to connect with him on a spiritual level. It gives me comfort to know I’m never alone and he’s watching over me and all those I love.
In January this year I was looking back on pictures of me and him together and something told me to look at the time stamp on this photo. And just like that, I knew the universe was working on this longer than I could have imagined. This was one of the last pictures I took with my dad, at 11:11 AM on 11/11/2020. I don’t tell my story to convince anyone, of magic they do not wish to not believe in. But I’ve experienced by sharing my story with those that needed to hear it, it has sparked their own journey into connecting with their loved ones on their own. My only hope is to let those who have an open heart to receive the magic and guidance of the universe be able to connect with their loved ones and angels on the other side. Even if you don't have a loved one on the other side, we all have angels that love us unconditionally and guide us every day on our paths. It's up to you to tap into that energy and connect they are simply waiting for you to ask for what you want to help you manifest all your heart's desires in their world. My wish for you if you're reading this, is to experience the magic.
