CREATE with Conni Biesalski

"Anything you can't control is teaching you how to let go." - Jackson KiddardWhen things happen that you don't want to happen.When plans suddenly don't work out.When relationships suddenly end.When life is not going the way you want it to.Here is my experience.I also share things that help me accept, let go and surrender.Thank you for your time.Thank you for being you.Big love,ConniYou can always send me a DM to say hi, send me questions or inquire about working with me:https://www.instagram.com/breathwork.alchemyMy online course "Breathwork & Nervous System Foundations":https://www.breathworkalchemy.co/foundations✌️

How can we ignite our creative fire and get into the flow more easily? I answered this question in the last Inside/Out workshop session a week ago and feel called to share it with you on the podcast as well because my answer turned out to be powerful. Also: What is email bankruptcy? Are we all writers now? And what hell am I doing in Canada? You will get all the answers in this episode!

You all sent in some pretty deep and profound questions for my first Q+A episode. This is the first part - more to come soon, the list of questions is long! Here are the ones I attempt to answer in this episode: People fight so hard to always be happier. Why? Tell me about the best day of your life and the worst. When did you know you were queer? Would it help if schools taught about it early? Which awareness brought an important shift in your behavior and perception? What is the purpose of life?

It's a little difficult to summarize this solo episode. It's a stream of consciousness around what happens when you take the red pill (awakening), the awesome shifts that I have seen taking place in the creator/entrepreneur world and the three big ways that mindfulness and meditation have impacted me.

This is the real work in life: learning to truly love ourselves. Everything starts and ends with self-love if you like it or not. ESPECIALLY as creators. We throw the phrase around like candy - but the other day a friend asked me - "Conni, how DO you actually love yourself? Like, HOW?" - here is my attempt at answering that question.. 15 Minutes to Change Your Life: My Free Morning Meditation My Flow+Wonder Letters: https://conni.me/signup Instagram: http://instagram.com/conni.biesalski My Creative Instagram: http://instagram.com/connicreates YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/connibiesalski My Other YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/connicreates Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/connibie Website: https://conni.me If you want to support my podcast and my work, please leave a review on iTunes!
