Something Jen Fedorowicz said in the last conversation was that obstacles are opportunities. It was something that I was intrigued by. I have always heard that obstacles are the path or the way, but there was something about the world opportunity that landed deeply.  I wanted to record a short solo episode to take that concept ever deeper. My intention is this episode opens you to a new perspective and to allow those obstacles and roadblocks to guide you and to know that Life is always with you and for you.  We always get to choose how we want to think and feel about anything, this includes obstacles. When we begin to allow and trust we then move into a flow state. That's where the magic happens. In that flow we experience more purpose, fulfillment, connection and joy.  At any moment we can view an obstacle through the lens of victim energy or creator energy. My hope is all of us begin to shift our mindset and look at everything, including obstacles, from the creator energy.  Come over here and connect with me on Instagram and let's continue this conversation.

Purpose can be a big word. I’ve experienced it in the past and I hear from clients all the time, the word purpose can make us feel overwhelmed. Well, that’s why I recorded an episode on this topic.  To me purpose is simply passion in action.  Because living a life full of passion, fulfillment and curiosity is available to ALL of us. And I believe we MUST share those gifts, we must share those passions with others. It’s never too late, it’s never too early, the time really is now.  Show Notes Melanie's Instagram  

Fear and excitement feel the same in the body, that’s right, it’s the same sensation. It’s the mind that tells you what the feeling is. But many times it bases it on past experiences and limiting beliefs. I decided to record a solo episode all about this and offer some simple ways to get clarity around what you’re feeling and make decisions from that place.  Many times what we perceive is fear is often uncertainty. My intention is this episode offers some insights and gives simple ways to work through what you’re feeling so you can live a life outside that certainty box. As humans we’re meant to live fully, in the adventure of life, experiencing it all, with the courage to step into the unknown, to say yes to our dreams. Understanding and allowing fear without it dictating our life is the first step. Show Notes Mel's Instagram

I'm joined this week by Erin Claire Jones to talk all things Human Design. She describes human design as a system that gives language and a framework to how you operate, it’s your energetic blueprint. Human Design offers a way to really master your energy.

Emotions are the GPS of our soul and can be a guide and compass in our lives. The first step is getting comfortable and simply allowing ALL emotion.  When I started on this path of personal discovery over 10 years ago I realized how closed off I was to feeling any emotion other than happy. I know so many of you can relate. And this is a muscle I continue to build and work on. I’m better now than I was 2 years ago or 5 years ago and way better than I was 10 years ago.  Many of us aren’t taught emotional wellness in schools or through our families, my intention for this episode is to open the conversation and shed light on the world of emotion. Emotions are simply energy in motion and my hope is that all of us get comfortable with them in order to use them to show us what’s working and what’s not in order to experience more fulfillment, more purpose and more clarity.  Show Notes Mel's Instagram

The outer is always a reflection of the inner. If you’ve listened for a while now, you know how passionate I am about our homes and our physical space. I believe our home can either support our vision, dreams and emotional wellbeing or can hinder us.  Cleaning up the home is the fastest way to shift your reality. It has the ability to move the energy. Imagine being able to move from chaos to clarity or from overwhelm to movement.  The home is a physical representation of our inner landscape. In my opinion, decluttering the home is the fastest way to get clarity and movement in your life. Tune in as I share more of my beliefs, some powerful inquiries to support you as you create an intentional home, along with my personal story of cleaning a closet and how that act was the catalyst for a big change and tons of growth in my life.  Show Notes Come join the conversation on Instagram

I was called to the mountains of Montana and actually recorded this episode from the lodge in real time during the Great Conjunction and Solstice.

So thank you for listening and allowing me to reflect on the experience.  In this episode you’ll learn a little more about what a calling is, how to hear it, and why it’s important to say yes and follow it. As a result of saying yes and heading to the mountains of Montana I had the most magical experience and was able to feel the depths of my own soul. This is what’s available to all of us, that’s my intention, that my story inspires you to listen and say yes to the call of your soul.  After you listen come say hello here on Instagram and tell me what your soul is yearning for. https://anintentionalbusiness.com/2020/12/mountains-callings/
