Somewhere between doubt and devotion


You ever have one of those days where gratitude and self-doubt swirl in the same breath?

That was me yesterday, Reader

I sat down to write you this email, and honestly I felt full.
Not just with words or ideas, but with emotion.
A mix of awe, purpose, and…
that soft ache of questioning.

Because this summer, I’ve been working in a different rhythm.

My work days are part creation, part reflection.
2 parts inner work, 1 part external action.

While I’m recording Looms for the Inner Ideal Client HD Reports, I’m also making art and listening to self-guided meditations I recorded in my own voice.

And in between?

There’s space.

The kind that doesn’t look like “growth” in the traditional sense.
It’s not louder. It’s not faster.
But it’s deeper.
Quieter.
More me.

Still, I had a moment this week. One of those sneaky comparisons that catches you off guard.

I saw someone I admire post about hitting 12k followers.
We started around the same time.
Similar milestones. Different paths.

And I felt it...

That tug of should.

That whisper that asks, “Am I doing enough?”

And yet… the moment I returned to my body, my purpose, my rhythm, I knew.

I’m not here to grow a number.
I’m here to grow a resonance.

And yesterday I wrote an impromptu post on LinkedIn.
Just me being in my moment to express.
A reminder to myself.

I wrote about it in this post on LinkedIn.

I think this is something many of us quietly carry.
This low-grade hum of “I should be further by now.”

And maybe it’s not true.

Maybe your most powerful momentum comes not from showing up more, but from showing up truer.

That’s been my experience.

Last year, I started recording little voice notes to myself. Letters from future me to present me. They weren’t polished. They weren’t public. Just my voice, saying what I needed to hear.

Things like

“I’m so proud of you.”
→ That lands like a hug from my son.
"You did this."
→ Reminding me it's not by chance.

"When you and Eric have that knowing glance, you feel the love for what has been created together."
→ Feeling the reverberation slow your voice.

What if it’s not the number of people hearing you…
but the quality of the voice you hear most often?

Could that voice be your own?

Would you trust her?

Would you let her guide you forward?

This is what I’m sitting with today.
This is what I wanted to share.

You are here, in this moment.
You are visible, even when you think no one is watching.
You are remembered, just by being you.

And the deeper you go into your own alignment, the clearer your resonance becomes.

And resonance?
It always finds who it’s meant to.

With devotion,
Tricia

I’ve always been a pattern spotter. Probably why I was so good at knitting and creating trend reports. You can actually see it in my human design chart. Gate 47 (making sense of chaos). Channel 58-18 (seeing what no longer serves). Gate 5 (timing). Channel 59-6 (when it’s time to birth something new). And of course, being a 6-line... the bird’s eye view, pattern seer, rooftop watcher. I experience it in everyday life. Noticing when trends are rising. When energy is fading. When the right...

I kind feel a little stupid sharing this... Because yah, I should have known it. Ever have that a-ha moment, and you're like, How did I not see this? And then you wonder what else you aren't noticing. The funning thing is that I've been circling this for years, but I never put it together... sorry universe... I guess I just need to be hit over the head with it sometimes. There’s this concept in Human Design called lived wisdom. It’s the stuff we’ve learned because we had to. Not the natural...

Reader, the Red Frequency feels like a a flashlight I can't turn off these days. Creating these reports, witnessing the a-ha's, and seeing the results are like fuel for the fire that's been burning inside me for a while now. One that I don't intend to put out. And it seems to be spreading like hot flash some days. Last week I was watching my friend, Helmi share his content creation system for YouTube. Highly recommend it if you are making videos. He has this effective prompt to extract...
