Here’s our take on what it means to be a light illuminating our world.
– KEYS SOULCARE
The term “lightworker” can be found scattered throughout an array of influencers and do-gooders across the internet, but its growing popularity can make it hard to define and even harder to reach. But being a lightworker doesn’t have to be complicated, so we’re giving you an illuminating refresher so you can stay inspired and seek those shining their light onto the world.
ARE YOU A LIGHTWORKER?
The short answer is, yes. At Keys Soulcare, being a lightworker has nothing to do with your follower count or a textbook definition of the word. Being a lightworker only requires two things: being your authentic self and sharing your light with the world. Revealing your gifts is vulnerable and doesn’t look like one thing. Whether you create a six-figure business or have a five-minute conversation that shifts someone’s perspective, you’re a light in this world.
WHY ARE LIGHTWORKERS IMPORTANT?
Lightworkers inspire, heal, and grow with us. Lightworkers often work against the grain — doing the unpopular or unfamiliar thing. They are trailblazers who form new paths for others to find their way. Lightworkers are truth-telling expressionists who use their art, style, voice, bodies, and more to show the fullness of their being. Lightworkers also remind us of how connected we truly are, no matter how different we might seem.
LIGHTWORKERS BUILD COMMUNITIES
Speaking of connection, lightworkers are the crème de la crème of community — whether they know it or not. (And, yes, that includes you.) You are the only you there is, which is why showing up as your authentic self is so important. By being you, you inspire others to do the same. You might feel fear or hesitation, but your courage breeds more courage, so do you. Wear that bold outfit, make that TikTok about your poem, or share that “aha” moment with the barista at the coffee shop. You never know who has been looking for what you bring to the world.
THANK YOU, LIGHTWORKER
Lightworkers are our guides in the darkness, spreading their positivity and joy everywhere they go. We can’t thank you enough for being who you are, sharing what you love, and standing up for what you believe in. Want to double down on shining your light? Here are a few of the lightworker stories we adore. (And we’re sure you’ll be inspired by them, too).
