Dunno if this will be helpful or annoying (maybe both!) but here's some feedback on your "how'd I get here" list:

by always appearing to be calm and centered and getting a reputation for having no challenges

Yes in person (mostly); you let the waves show more on LJ.

by always having a strong opinion and getting a reputation for not seeing the world the way 'everyone' does

Yes, both in person and online.

by speaking what's true for me about abundance, safety, trust in the universe,

Yes again, both places.

and getting a reputation for being blind to other people's challenges and restrictions

Nope. You're not easy on anybody, including yourself (starting with yourself), but no way are you blind.

for being 'another one of those faith-based church ladies,'

Well, OK, a little bit of truth in that, if I squint real hard and look at it sideways.

for being pollyanna.

You!? Pollyana!? No.

Much love to you.

Thank you, Dear One, for a thoughtful and illuminating comment. I've been mulling it over since the day you posted it, and I think I'll write something in the main blog (where I'll trip over it again) rather than here.

A whole new train of thought is emerging from your comment, plus another's in-person critique a few weeks ago when I was last in the pulpit.

Hmm.
