"You're not the same as you were before...You were much more...muchier. You've lost your muchness."
~Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland / Through The Looking Glass
In 2015, I re-read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, because that's precisely what I felt I was going through. I was in the midst of an ugly divorce while taking care of my mother, who had diabetes, myasthenia gravis, and dementia.
I was chasing a white rabbit down a hole, and I couldn't stop falling. I took the "eat me" signs on food a little too seriously, and I don't even want to talk about the "drink me" signs I saw on every bottle of whiskey to numb the pains of lost love and abandonment. I was doing my best to care for my mother, who became "The Queen of Hearts," constantly yelling, "Off with her head!" My ex-husband became The Mad Hatter, and while I won't repeat his exact horrible words to me here...he "implied" I used to be "much more muchier."
I was losing my "muchness."
I spent the next three years fighting to keep whatever "muchness" I had left. My divorce was finalized. My mother passed away. I was living in a 500 sq ft apartment in a new city. The life I enjoyed for 20 years was gone, and now I had to figure out how to get my "muchness" back.
In order to get my "muchness" back, I made three choices:
- I decided to surround myself with positivity.
- I decided to choose happiness.
- I decided to focus on the future I wanted, rather than cling to what I had lost.
Like myself, many of my clients are missing a happy piece of themselves that they lost when life took them down a path they never signed up for. Grief, loss, illness, death, abandonment, guilt, abuse, divorce, etc., chip away at our joy and leave marks on our psyche. They want to "reclaim their muchness." I have spent the last 10 years not only reclaiming my own muchness but also helping thousands of people reclaim theirs. And now, I've created The Reclaim Your Muchness Movement for other like-minded individuals who wish to surround themselves with others like them.
I want to expand my reach and make these tools available to others who have finally realized that years of traditional therapy haven't worked, life challenges aren't going away, and living "Happily Ever After" is a powerful, personal decision.
