The word lightworker can indeed be misunderstood—believe me, I have been there. For the longest time, I didn’t want to associate myself with it either. The word felt... well, airy-fairy. Like it was wrapped in too many layers of sparkles, unicorns, and unrealistic ideals. Not exactly my vibe!
But then, I realized that my resistance wasn’t really about the word itself. It was about the meaning the world had attached to it—or maybe the meaning my own psyche had internalized. The way we sometimes put labels into little boxes, sprinkle some societal stereotypes over them, and voilà! Suddenly, a lightworker seems like someone who floats around chanting, rather than someone grounded and real.
And if I am being honest, it wasn’t just the word I was rejecting—it was that part of me. Why? Well, contemplation is my thing. Each time a thought nudges me, I like to take it for a little stroll through my mind. And one day, I asked myself a big one:
What does it take to be authentic?
To truly be comfortable in my own skin? The question lingered, and then came the harder one:
Why am I not comfortable being who I am?
The answer wasn’t pretty, but it was honest—I wasn’t ready to be vulnerable. Vulnerability felt like a risky deal. What if people judged me? What if I was misunderstood, again? What if I put myself out there, only to feel like I was standing in the rain, soaked, with no umbrella in sight?
But here’s the kicker—being authentic is all about peeling back those layers of “what-ifs” and stepping into the raw, messy truth of you. So, I leaned into that discomfort.
And oh, the questions that followed!
What does it even mean to be vulnerable?
What’s the worst that could happen if I let people see the real me?
Spoiler alert: The “worst” was just a figment of my overthinking. Vulnerability wasn’t the monster I thought it was. It turned out to be a bridge—to connection, to authenticity, and to finally embracing that part of me I had pushed aside.
So here I am now, still contemplating, still peeling back the layers. Being a lightworker doesn’t have to mean being “airy-fairy.” It can mean being real, grounded, a little goofy, and unafraid to admit that sometimes I stumble. And honestly? That feels more like light working than anything else.
Have you ever found yourself pondering a thought, only to realize, “Wait, where did that even come from?” It is like our minds are this big open field, and thoughts come and go like little butterflies or birds. But when we start grabbing them and putting them in a jar, we begin to repeat them, over and over again, until they are no longer butterflies—they have transformed into our beliefs, our perceptions, stamped into our thinking.
The thing is, we tend to forget that thoughts are like visitors. They come in, have a seat, maybe make themselves a cup of tea, and then—poof—they are gone. But we are the ones who let them stay for dinner, invite them to the party, and suddenly, they have moved in, rearranged the furniture, and are now in charge of the TV remote. It is not even about who put the thought in our minds, but about how we treat it once it shows up. Are we making it feel at home, or are we just letting it hang out for a while and then sending it on its merry way?
When we repeat something enough, it becomes a part of our internal dialogue. And that repetition? It is like pressing play on a record, over and over again, until it becomes the soundtrack of our lives. So, when we start thinking something—especially if it’s negative or self-doubting—we are doing more than just thinking it; we are affirming it. It is like planting a seed, and the more we water it, the bigger it grows. The fun part? We get to decide which seeds to plant!
Do we want to grow a garden of empowerment, or a jungle of doubt?
So, here is the fun twist—next time a thought comes up, instead of focusing on who planted it there, ask yourself, “Do I want this thought to stick around?” Because once you decide, you are the one doing the inviting (or kicking out). After all, your mind is your playground, and you are the one calling the shots.
Now, this is my meaning of lightworking.
It is not about being “airy-fairy” or wrapped in glitter—it is about showing up authentically, grounded, and real. It is about actively contributing to the world in a way that brings healing, wisdom, and connection.
For me, lightworking isn’t about floating in the clouds; True essence of lightworking is about rolling up your sleeves and illuminating life, one step at a time.

Empowerment in Practice
Empowerment means stepping into your role with courage and purpose, free of self-doubt. We have likely done significant inner work, healing our own wounds and limiting beliefs, allowing us to shine our light without fear or hesitation. Our willingness to share knowledge and wisdom becomes a beacon for those seeking guidance and transformation.
For me, lightworking is about vulnerability, about asking, What’s the worst that can happen if I let people see who I truly am? Turns out, the worst isn’t that bad at all. Vulnerability is the bridge to connection, authenticity, and embracing the part of me that I once rejected. It’s not about being perfect or ethereal—it’s about being unapologetically real and letting that light guide the way.
Think about it: an empowered lightworker isn’t someone who shies away from the chaos or challenges. In fact, they can face situations head-on, knowing they are centered, grounded, and ready to tackle what comes their way. It is like being in the eye of a storm—everything around you might be swirling with craziness, but you are calm, clear, and in control of your own energy.
And here is the fun twist—being a lightworker isn’t about being the “perfect” person who always knows the right thing to say or do. It is about being real with yourself and others. If you trip over your words or need a moment to recalibrate, it’s okay! Empowered lightworkers understand that vulnerability and authenticity are their superpowers, not weaknesses. The world isn’t asking for you to be flawless; it’s asking for you to show up as your true, imperfect self.
So, being an empowered lightworker doesn’t mean hiding away in a little bubble of peace and serenity (as tempting as that might be). It means standing tall, shining your light, and handling situations with a clear mind and a heart full of compassion—whether you are in a meeting at work, with friends at dinner, or in the middle of a hectic life moment. You are in coherence within, so you can be in tune with the world around you. It is like dancing through life—flowing with the rhythm, even when it is a little bumpy, and still having fun while you do it!
