In this episode of The Twelfth House, we're exploring our concept of Void States and how running experiments can help you break free from feeling stuck, uninspired, or overwhelmed.There are three different void states that we might experience when wondering "what the hell should I do next?":* The Uninspired State: Where you don't know enough about yourself or the world to know what you want to do next. This state can benefit from tools like subconscious audits, meaning-making systems like astrology and human design, and shadow work.* The Burnt Out and Overwhelmed State: When you've put in effort but aren't getting recognition or satisfaction in return, leading to burnout and a lack of clarity on next steps.* The Overwhelmed By Possibility State: When you have too many options and ideas but don't know where to start, experiencing analysis paralysis and fear of making the wrong choice.These void states are natural parts of life's cycles — we'll all go through all of them many times throughout our lives. But that doesn't make a Void State, like, a super fun time. Anyway, running experiments in your life or business — essentially creating pattern interruptions that introduce new stimuli and change the way you experience your environment — can absolutely be a tool to getting you unstuck if you're having a hard time getting out of a void state. Experiments aren't about success or failure, but about introducing new information into your system to help you get unstuck and see the world differently.Signs you're ready for an experiment:* Feeling bored/stuck/overwhelmed * The outcomes you're getting feel like a season of Real Housewives that should've ended three episodes ago* You catch yourself saying "I should..." more than "I want..." (giving very much corporate girlboss energy when you're trying to be intuitive business queen)I share my personal approach to experiments and how to reassess when the experiment starts to feel oppressive (boooo) rather than illuminating (yaaaaay). Some experiments that you can try for yourself: * Sell something in your business every day for 30 days* Change how you present yourself daily for a month* Do something surprising or uncomfortable daily* Test your failure tolerance by putting yourself in the position to get rejected on the daily. Oh, and we just opened the doors to "Ruthless Clarity," an eight-week email course designed to help people clear overwhelm and get clarity on their motivations, priorities, and internal compass. You can learn more here — we start on May 11th!

To hear more, visit thetwelfthhouse.substack.comIn an era where aesthetically curating the idea of doing something has become our collective toxic trait (I see you, productivity people with your untouched Notion pages), it's time for a lil' reality check. A gentle call in. A firm, kind redirect as we emerge from the eclipse portal and catapult ourselves into Q2. Today's episode of the Twelfth House+ …

This week, we're talking about the difference between being seen and being SEEN.The uncomfortable truth? People don't notice you because you're doing most things exactly the same way as everyone else.We observe what seems to be working for others, frantically study their "method," and replicate it with the precision of someone following IKEA instructions — except we're building our entire lives and businesses this way.And, listen, this isn't necessarily a bad strategy. But if you want people to see you, to acknowledge you, to recognize you… you've gotta stand out. And if you're just going with the flow, doing what everyone else does without asking why — welp, yah just blend into the crowd. Standing Out Without Being That PersonThe alternative isn't wearing neon jumpsuits or speaking exclusively in haikus.The secret is embarrassingly simple: be more conscious.Instead of blindly following others, pause and ask:* Why am I doing this thing this way?* What's my actual perspective?* Is this working for ME?It's about switching from automatic to intentional thinking in a world where most people are running on autopilot.Project Planning: The Unsexy Secret WeaponThe most practical takeaway sounds about as exciting as organizing your sock drawer: project planning.Project planning forces you to ask:* Why am I doing this?* What do I actually want to happen?* What's my strategy?* What's the actual first step?These questions might seem basic, but most of us skip them entirely, jumping straight to execution mode following the same tired blueprint everyone else uses.The Serious Truth BombRemember: "No one takes you more seriously than you take yourself."If you're approaching your work with "aw shucks, who am I to do this thing?" energy, you're telling everyone else not to take you seriously either.Taking yourself seriously doesn't mean acting like Adrien Brody accepting the Oscar. It means recognizing your power and not wasting it. The bottom line: To be seen, you need to do things differently.

What if your ideal clients already knew they needed your work — and were ready to say yes before you even made an offer? That's the magic of a diagnostic.In this episode, Michelle Pellizzon Lipsitz unpacks why diagnostics — things like quizzes, intake forms, and archetypes — are the secret weapon behind businesses that sell with ease. Instead of chasing clients or trying to “sell harder,” diagnostics help people self-identify their needs, understand their pain points, and see exactly how your work fits into their journey.In This Episode We Cover:

*record scratch freeze frame* You're probably wondering how we ended up here, doom-scrolling at 3am and feeling like our businesses live and die by the whims of an algorithm created by tech bros who definitely think their morning cold plunge routine earns them moral superiority. “Can you even have a business without social media?” Well, yeah. Of course. You just might have to get scrappy with it. On today's episode, KP Pilley and Michelle Pellizzon Lipsitz unpack the common urge to boycott social media platforms—especially when they feel overwhelming, exhausting, or just not fun anymore. But before you ghost Instagram, they explain why completely abandoning these spaces might not be the best move. Instead, they offer ways to use social media intentionally, without letting it consume all your energy.Marketing IRL: Connecting with Your Audience Outside the InternetRemember life before we all became digital avatars of ourselves? Turns out, gasp, marketing existed! And it worked! Some might even say it worked better, back when we weren't all competing with an endless stream of AI-generated content about manifesting abundance through the power of positive thinking.KP breaks down some delightfully analog ways to reach your people:

In this chaos carnival we call life, where doom-scrolling is an Olympic sport and debilitating anxiety comes free with every social media subscription, here's a wild thought: maybe “trust yourself” isn't just a cute Pinterest quote — it's a battle cry. (Too dramatic? idc!) In this episode, intuitive medium and inner child whisperer Natasha Levinger tells all about developing your psychic abilities — not as some woo-woo skill that requires you to rename yourself Starflower and move to Sedona, but as something that's literally just part of having a human meat suit. Intuition isn't just vibes – it's information, baby. Intuition, Somatics, and the Art of Knowing YourselfNatasha shares the practical, embodied techniques she uses to stay centered and in control of her own energy—especially in triggering or overwhelming situations. From working with the inner child to closing the aura and separating from unhelpful energetic influences, she explains how to navigate life (and the unseen) with confidence.They also explore the fascinating link between physical posture, embodied cognition, and intuitive strength—because how you hold yourself physically shapes how you hold yourself energetically. Your body is a tuning fork for psychic information, and understanding this connection is a game-changer.Boundaries, Fear, and Why Humor is a Psychic Survival SkillOne of the biggest myths about intuition? That it makes you vulnerable. The truth is, strong intuition requires strong boundaries. Natasha explains how to set energetic boundaries (yes, even with spirits) and why maintaining control of your own energy field is essential—especially when dealing with fear, anxiety, or external chaos.The Biggest Mistake People Make When Developing Intuition—and How to Avoid ItDeveloping psychic and intuitive abilities isn't about forcing anything; it's about tuning in to what's already there. Natasha shares the common pitfalls that hold people back and how to approach intuitive development in a way that's natural, accessible, and (dare we say it?) even fun.If you've ever felt the call of the unseen (or just want to know why you always know who's calling before you check your phone), this episode is your permission slip to trust that weird feeling in your gut that's always right about your ex's new relationship.

Welcome back to The Twelfth House Podcast! Let me give you the sparkly SparkNotes version of this delightfully chaotic guide to understanding your own personal drama factory (aka your subconscious). This is essentially a 11-day deep dive into why you keep self-sabotaging like it's your job — except plot twist! You're not actually sabotaging yourself at all. *gasp*Key revelations that hit harder than your 2am existential fears:* Your patterns aren't trying to ruin your life — they're just overprotective helicopter parents doing their best impression of "helping" * Those "blocks" you keep hitting? They're actually just your system downloading updates at the worst possible moment (like an iPhone, but make it psychological)* Jealousy isn't toxic, it's your subconscious playing hot-or-cold with your actual desires (turns out hate-following people on Instagram is actually productive, who knew?)* Your fear isn't your enemy — it's more like that friend who's a little extra about your safety. Yes, they're dramatic, but their heart's in the right place.The Subconscious Audit guide walks through:* Pattern detection (aka "why do I keep doing That Thing™️")* Fear investigation (spoiler: it's usually protecting something valuable)* Tiny experiments (because nobody needs an Eat Pray Love moment to make changes)* Support systems (turns out willpower alone is giving very much "thoughts and prayers" energy)Bottom line: You're not broken, you're just running a particularly complex operating system that occasionally needs a reboot. Like Windows Vista, but make it personal growth. The goal isn't to become some enlightened being who floats above their patterns — it's about becoming fluent in your own chaos language. Think of it as learning to speak "fear" as a second language, complete with regional dialects and slang.Grab the Subconscious Audit here →

A quick aside before we dive in: The Eaton and Palisades Fires are far from through. If you can offer support to those displaced and impacted by the fires, it would mean so much to us at Holisticism. I owed you an update — in June 2024 I recorded an episode about my Hermit Experiment, in which I decided to lean ALL THE WAY into my Matrix of Destiny Complex Karma number (9, The Hermit) for six months. Well, the witch is back. And I'm updating you on the good, the bad, the girl-so-confusing of this Complex Karma exploration. Key developments in my villain-to-crunchy-recluse arc:* Stopped teaching huge public courses until 2025 (terrifying but surprisingly didn't tank revenue???)* Went DEEP with 1:1 client work (the vibes? immaculate. If you're one of my clients and you're reading this now please know how obsessed with you I am)* Started making truly awful pottery at midnight… like a proper forest witch * Published a book about copywriting that didn't flop * Generally tried to embrace more BTS energy and less "available on The Internet 24/7" energyThere were plot twists nobody saw coming, which you'll have to listen to the episode to hear more about. This is either proof that the hermit archetype knows what she's doing, or that the universe rewards you when you finally stop pretending you want to be an extrovert. Real talk though — part of this hermit exploration came from a pretty raw place. I wasn't sure how it was gonna go… for a minute, I even wondered if I was making a rash decision in response to some tough stuff that was happening in my personal life. Was I leaning too much into “magical thinking” acting on a hunch about this whole Hermit thing, or was I following the clues… Would I recommend experimenting with your Complex Karma number? Absolutely. Will it solve all your problems? Absolutely not. But it might help you realize you don't actually have to teach another Notion course if you don't want to. And isn't that worth something?

If you want to learn more about what we do in there, you can read more here. Friends, Romans, chronically online countrypeople — it's 2024 and your girl has spent two years marinating in what I'm calling The Void™ (patent pending, merchandise coming never). After being forced to abandon my most reliable personality trait — working at the speed of light and launching products faster than Zara changes aesthetics — I've emerged with some thoughts about business, creativity, and why sometimes doing absolutely nothing is actually... everything?Picture it: Sicily, 1922. Just kidding. Picture it: me, a non-linear brain with one setting — VERY FAST — being forced by the universe to... slow... down. The audacity. The horror. The absolute violation of my Aries midheaven rights! Key revelations from my extended stay in The Void (or: what happens when an ADHD entrepreneur is forced to practice patience)… There are THREE flavors of void-states (like spiritual Ben & Jerry's, but with fewer calories and more existential crises):

Spoiler alert: it involved crying in a Whole Foods parking lot because I scheduled three meetings in three different places in one hour. Past Me was clearly going through something.Then we get into the juicy stuff:* How I structure my week so I actually have time to shower, make money, and generally enjoy my life (revolutionary, I know)* The uncomfortable truth about why you keep booking meetings you hate* How to identify what's actually important versus what your anxiety says is important* The art of saying "no" without having to fake a family emergencyPlus, I share some spicy takes from the Time Witch's Starter Spellbook, which you can snag here → If you've ever wished you could manipulate the space-time continuum just to get through your to-do list, consider this episode your permission slip to stop treating productivity like a blood sport. Time isn't the enemy — but that 2-hour standing weekly meeting that could have been an email definitely is.Tune in for practical magic that'll help you feel like you've actually got your life together without having an existential crisis every Sunday night." ✨[Note: No calendars were harmed in the making of this episode, but several unnecessary meetings were permanently deleted.]

KD and MP excavate the eternal tension between traditional goal-setting (hello, spreadsheet my old friend) and the more intuitive "vibes-based" approach to life planning.
