Today we are speaking with Self Mastery Coach, Andrea Lowell.  Andrea is a Self Mastery coach for women, whose life is built upon a foundation of relentless self honesty and awareness, gratitude, and harmonizing Universal and Spiritual Law. Many people assume Andrea was "born like this" and has lived a "charmed life," since she was in the entertainment industry for decades, and was surrounded by wealth and celebrity. However, that was in fact the low point of her life. It was a truly empty and vapid career, which only created emotional and spiritual bankruptcy. She had to hit an emotional rock bottom, and know what hopelessness felt like, in order to finally get real with herself, do the inner work, and actually cultivate a life to be grateful for. Andrea has not only mastered the blueprint for women to find true bliss, fulfillment, and personal power, but has been successfully coaching women from all walks of life on this exact path for a decade. Through practicing the Self Mastery lifestyle of integration and self honesty, she and her clients now are able to manifest miracles, diminish anxiety, have blissful relationships, and become the women they were put on earth to be. It's not for everyone, but the path of Self Mastery is the journey that will take women all the way up to the top!In this episode we dive into: 1) The meaning of Self-Mastery and how to stop relying on the outside world instead of yourself when it comes to finding and creating solutions for change in our lives. This is how we learn to take back our own personal power. 2) Andrea's story and how for 16 years she wasn't tapped into her own personal power and how a specific day in front of a mirror changed everything and led her to the work she does today to support so many other women.

Andrea Boerries, Consultant, Member of Society International Development, DGVN (United Nations Association Germany) and DGAP (German Council of Foreign Relations), terrific thought partner, joins Yo to discuss Susan Cain's book, Quiet. Andrea brings a global perspective to help us see being an introvert as a human phenomenon we can be proud to be. Because of the depth of our conversation and richness of the content, we decided to make this into two parts. Here's how the discussion went: · How has the book uncovered our own tendencies toward being an introvert? · How can companies help acknowledge introverts in their training efforts? · Are there characteristics of Gen Zers that could be more introverted than other generations? · How did reading this book change our thinking about being an introvert? · How can teachers and other leaders help introverts learn to be comfortable leading? During the episode, Andrea mentioned a few additional sources that might be helpful: 1. German Book, English translation Jennifer B. Kahnweiler (2018) The Introverted Leader: Building on your Quiet Strength 2nd ed, Berrett-Koehler Publishers; Germany. 2. Aguas, J.

Prof. Dr. Amarendra Bushan Dhiraj, (03/24/2022), Quote on Satya Nadella, CEO and Chairman, Microsoft, Redmond, WA. in CEO World Magazine, @ceoworld.biz. More about Andrea: Andrea grew up in Central Germany's beautiful Taunus area, close to Frankfurt. She spent her Senior year at Carlisle High School, PA. After graduation in 1981 and finishing her German diploma, she spent 2 years traveling the world as an air hostess with Lufthansa, went to Paris, France and received a language diploma, worked in a consultancy and got hired as an event manager in an advertising agency in Hamburg. She went on to work in the advertising business as a client consultant while pursuing a degree in Marketing and Communication. She started her family in 1994, moved to Silicon Valley and stayed for 10 years. In 2007, her daughter got very sick and she changed her life style completely to become healthier and strong to best support her family during this time. She became a yoga teacher but had a severe accident which led to numerous surgeries and couldn't continue teaching yoga. She always enjoyed following politics, and after participating in a few online classes (Women's Health and HR, Stanford, Sustainability, Columbia, Intro to Intl. Development, Cambridge), she settled for studying International Development at University of Cambridge, England. While in Cambridge, she volunteered as an intern for NGOs in Kenia, Myanmar and India. She also worked as a volunteer in the Hamburg refugee program for a year in school administration and founded and built a refugee camp library. She received an invite to further her education in Sustainability in a summer program at the UN Systems Staff College in Bonn. She graduated from Cambridge and went on to pursue a bachelor's degree in Political science at University of Hamburg, while working as an intern and later student employee for a Federal German development project in Youth employment, SIFA (Skills Initiative for Africa) in Johannesburg in cooperation with eight African countries. She has three grown children 20, 25 and 28 yrs. old. Ways to reach Andrea: Email: aboerries904@gmail.com Ways to reach Yo: Email: yo@yocanny.com

"Anti-racism work is not about saving the unfortunate; anti-racism work is about saving all of us, improving the lives of all of us." ~Lori L. Tharps One of the themes to emerge from the not your typical self-care series is connection. Specifically, the idea that pursuing practices that require greater inward focus or offer less obvious immediate gratification creates a ripple effect.  Anti-racism is self-care on a global scale. If you're thinking, “Um, Andrea, that's a bold claim and an unconventional discipline to add to my routine,” let me counter with this: it's all about mindset. Lori L. Tharps - yes, of Kinky Gazpacho fame - believes that each individual action chips away at a towering problem until our collective efforts topple the entire system. There's one critical catch. “If people look at anti-racism work, particularly white people, if they look at it as ‘well, you know, this is charity work for Black people and Brown people and I should just do it because it's the right thing and they need my help,' that's not the right mindset to go into,” cautions the blogger and host of My American Meltingpot. On her podcast, Lori approaches the practice of anti-racism with clear-eyed directness, especially in her “Don't Be Racist” series, recorded in the last half of 2020. In it, she offered some different ways of thinking about how we view the subject through a broader lens, how we incorporate these efforts into our lives, what that may look like - and allowing space for what that may not look like. Lori's creative non-fiction style transitions seamlessly from her writing to her show which makes the prospect of dismantling this whole fabricated story of race totally doable. *** Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

"I don't want to be interacting with people on a day-to-day basis and have them feeling like, 'Andrea...she's just really collapsed.' That's terrible. That's not the energy that I want to be putting out into the world. That's not how I want to be perceived.  And it's definitely not how I think of myself." ~Andrea Klunder I don't know about you, but at this moment, at the end of March 2021, moving into April I am feeling like it is time for a shift. That makes sense. It's springtime in the Midwest. It's about those green little plants that are popping up out of the earth. It's about opening the windows for the first time in ages and doing some spring cleaning, clearing the dust. And WHOA, has it been one long winter! I'm going to go ahead and categorize summer 2020 as winter, spring 2020 as winter. It was all winter, as far as I was concerned, for, you know, pandemic reasons. And I decided to do a little spring cleaning for my VOICE with a voice lesson -- coaching session actually -- but I have not had a voice lesson in more than 10 years and this opened up a bunch of  cans of worms (ew!) -- about health, recovering from trauma, fears about aging, identity, the way people perceive me, and the stories we tell ourselves. Thank you to Davin Youngs for the session and the insights! (Meet Davin in episode 082.) Now as we move into this shift together...

Episode 128. “Even a true, traditional guru — his only intention would be to introduce you to the teacher that exists within yourself.” ~Mason Pain Throughout this entire pandemic (hello, first anniversary!), I've grown more keenly aware of my need for:  A protective bubble for my mind, a metaphysical helmet if you like, to protect my synapses from the torrent of bad news and keyed-up discourse and… A phrase to describe the practices that contribute to my sense of inner + outer wellbeing – something beyond the retail boon of self-care and… While I'm at it, a true reckoning around those beneficial practices with problematic roots It's a lot to unpack in a year that has served up more than its share of awakenings. Gong resonance sound therapist and yoga teacher Mason Pain has a strategy for calibrating his thoughts and actions around all those weighty issues. He advocates that we all develop more discernment and build intuition into our everyday lives. He's well aware of what a challenge that can be having wrestled with the recent (as well as the long-standing) revelations accusations of disturbing abuse committed by Yogi Bhajan, the now-deceased spiritual head of Kundalini yoga.  Oh, self-care, why can't you just be about delicious cupcakes and cat/cow pose (delicious as well, but in a different way)?! I struggled with what to call this episode... Slow down, go deeper Meet your inner teacher Move and breathe Protect your mind and your heart ...They all apply to both the episode AND the deep healing that any of us could use right now. What do you think?  I'd love to hear your response to this conversation with Mason. Email me your thoughts, share your own experiences. You can send a regular old email, or attach a voice memo. *** Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

Episode 127. “We really need routines, so our reptilian brain isn't on high alert/alarm mode all the time.” ~Mira Binzen One of the throughlines to emerge from our exploration of not your typical self-care is the basic human need for routine, some sort of practical ritual that anchors us to calm even during life's daily chaos. Mira Binzen believes the power of practice lies in its rigor and discipline - two words the commercial well-being industry willfully ignores. She has a keen understanding of the adjustments needed to return emotional, behavioral, and physiological systems to balance. As a yogi with a background in developmental therapy working with children who have sensory processing issues, aromatherapy is one of her favorite tools. Adolescents aren't the only ones in need of self-regulation assistance these days. Most of us have spent the last year swinging from manic productive impulses to bone-deep lethargy. The use of oils and oil blends as part of long-range self-care practice works to even out those opposing drives. There's a science to scent, of course, but you don't have to understand the process behind its power.  “You already know,” says Mira, somehow addressing both essential oils and our intrinsic need to return to the rigor of our routines. “We don't trust ourselves, or we wonder if we're doing it right or enough, and you are. You are. Trust yourself.” Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

Episode 126. “I think that a lot of Black people are waking up to our beauty and our majesty and looking at... we are not who we have been reported to be.” ~Lisa Lackey The sun is setting a bit later these days (hurray!), so I thought I'd take Creative Impostor listeners back to an episode I recorded around the time of the winter solstice, those darkest days of the year. Hear me out. I promise this conversation remains relevant to our time, regardless of what the calendar says, and our ongoing exploration of not your typical self-care regimes.  Lisa Lackey, M.A., LCPC, CSAT, CMAT, lays out her fundamental approach to some of life's most vexing challenges: depression and the generational traumas that often compound it. Racism, too, and the cultural norms embedded within our public and private approaches to mental well-being. Besides being one of my podcast clients, Lisa is an insightful, some might say even a prescient person. OK, I am saying that because our chat back in December touches on issues that many of us are experiencing today. Yes, it's easy to forecast the spirit-crushing lethargy to come at the onset of a midwestern winter. Yes, it's just as simple to predict nationwide sadness over the first anniversary of the pandemic, with its unfathomable death count and slow vaccination rollout. Coupled with the country's ongoing racial reckoning, however, it's been starkly apparent to me how many people in my personal and professional circles have all - very recently - reported feeling something more profound than a passing case of the winter blues. For a collective depression this deep, the self-care must be revolutionary. This episode hits the trifecta by exploring the bold, messy, and real issues that are keeping us apart while simultaneously drawing us closer together.  Two brilliant series from Lisa Black Women, Racism, and Trauma and Black Woman Burnout are available now on Insideout Conversations. The episode I specifically referenced (and sobbed while editing) was 36: Black women, racism, trauma, and our beautiful bodies.

Episode 125. "Being glued to your chair, to your computer, to your phone doesn't necessarily equal productivity. ~Pam Covarrubias Productivity and self-care may sound like contrary pursuits. Still, if anyone can combine these classic opposites into an uncommon but cohesive practice, it's podcaster, conscious productivity coach, and recovering procrastinator Pam Covarrubias.  Heads up: This episode makes liberal use of a “b” word, an “s” word, and an “f” word. Intrigued? Fabulous! Although the language doesn't get nearly as salty as you might imagine (what, precisely, are you imaging?), the episode does provide a few choice words, courtesy of Pam, to add to your self-care arsenal. Fire away the next time you need to make space for productivity. Once you've made some breathing room, it's time to supercharge those tasks and lean into some reciprocal encouragement. For that, you're going to need a PowerSister. No, not a blood relative. No, not even a close friend (don't despair, it's for a good reason). Learn what a PowerSister is and how to find one in this episode and then head over to last year's Podcast Envy conversation where Pam and I chat more extensively about her show Café con Pam.  Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

Episode 124. "In the midst of uncertainty, when there is this kind of situation of not knowing what to do, you realize that the majority of people aren't doing anything. So there's an opportunity there to do something.” ~Kate Sullivan Good conversation over a delicious meal with friends is the stuff of my pandemic daydreams. Emmy Award-winning journalist Kate Sullivan has found a distinctive way to tell inspiring stories over food - and package the combo for streaming.  To Dine For is her celebration of ingenuity, hard work, and achievement told over food, now available via PBS and Amazon Prime. There's also a companion podcast. Each episode showcases a conversation between Kate and her guest at a restaurant of her guest's choice. Whether recorded in a Michelin-starred dining room or a booth at IHOP, Kate's genuine curiosity makes for intimate and revelatory discussions. With a side of buttermilk pancakes. Or garlic noodles. As a viewer, To Dine For's format feels especially transportive right now. Part armchair travelogue, part ask-me-anything, the show offers respite from the uncertainty swirling around us. The interviews remind us that daring to dream is always an option. Kate says the process of crafting, pitching, and producing the show taught her the same. It took a leap of faith to leave her secure but draining job in local news and trust that inspiration would lead to personal and professional fulfillment.  Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

Episode 123. "I feel that self-care, sometimes, it's not just about you; it could be, like, community self-care.” ~Cassandre Dunbar What is self-care now? In the wake of last summer's peaceful protests against racial inequity? Alongside a presidential transition marred by threats of further violence? How can we support the collective while caring for ourselves - and vice versa? Challenging questions about wellness have led me to people who are redefining the standard answers, like Cassandre Dunbar. As host of the podcast, Be Well, Sis, she embodies the idea of self-care as a civic duty, speaking directly to women of color, a group long under-considered by mainstream wellness content creators.  Even with her medical degree and a background in teaching, Cassandre had difficulty locating wellness information, especially discussions centered on mental health within the Black community. So, she did what anyone with a full-time job and a family would do when inspiration struck: she let it percolate in the back of her mind for five years.  Then the pandemic hit and all her fears about starting a podcast morphed into fuel for her fire. “I just embraced being an amateur.”  Podcasting inadvertently became a three-pronged approach to wellness. Crafting each episode made her feel good, which, in turn, made her family happier. Producing the show connected her community and expanded their access to vital information.  “I want women to have a safe space to exchange ideas and information, to get encouragement...I want people to feel empowered in their health and in their wellness.” Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

Episode 122. "It's not enough to just sit there and come to an awareness about it; you literally have to do something about it.” ~Rebecca Lefebvre After a year that's spanned 42-odd months, the first episode of 2021 is a conversation steeped in practical magic, the kind that can recenter individuals and rehabilitate entire social structures. That's a tall order, I know. Luckily, Rebecca Lefebvre BSW, BSN, RN is an expert with a gift for interpreting ancient tools and applying them to 21st-century challenges. As all those post-nominal letters indicate, Rebecca knows her way around modern systems: social work, science, graphic design, public policy, small business ownership. She understands what makes personal and public systems tick. And what has thrown so many of them out of whack. At Avec La Vie, her online shop, Rebecca curates a collection of products for conscious, purposeful living she created to restore individual operating systems. My favorite is her trio of lush, boxed card decks. With each nature-inspired deck, Rebecca gently ushers the querent through stages of contemplation, healing, and transformation. Collective Wisdom, the beautiful bi-monthly magazine that Rebecca began self-publishing in March of 2020, is another outlet for her interest in resetting our collective outlook. Each issue she says is a place where science and spirituality unite around insights, opportunities, and activities. Rebecca's creative artistry and professional expertise are the perfect antidotes to the year that was. I've got my deck ready...  Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

Episode 121. "He told me to stay, that love was more important than visiting temples.” ~Andrea Klunder It came to my attention recently that I did a whole series on travel stories and had not recorded my own travel story to share with you. And while I have been recording these conversations for you with amazing guests about travel AND now self-care, Erica Courdae and India Jackson offered a theme for the month of November in their professional DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) network Pause On The Play. The theme: wellness. Perfect timing! And then one day India posted the following prompt in the group: What's the most adventurous or uncomfortable thing you've tried in support of your wellbeing? What were your takeaways? Now wellness, wellbeing, self-care... that was the industry that I was in, and ultimately feel like I failed in, for more than five years. Between yoga, meditation, therapeutic bodywork, Reiki, essential oils, tarot, acupuncture, sound healing, botanical skincare... I've tried a lot of things and they have often put me in uncomfortable positions, but the word 'adventurous' felt different. It immediately brought to mind a risk, more accurately, a series of risks that I took for my 34th birthday in 2012. I posted a response to that prompt in Pause On The Play and India asked me if I had yet recorded a podcast episode about that experience.  I was surprised to look back over my catalog of The Creative Impostor to discover that I hadn't... not really. But now that I have crafted that story on virtual paper, I see why I hadn't shared it. It feels vulnerable. I think it's because I have some regrets from this time in my life and from this story in particular. So, here goes... Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

Episode 120. "Perfection is not required.” ~Kelly Covert If your inbox is anything like mine (I feel for you), there's no end to the number of resolution-writing guides you've received; everything one needs to generate! improve! accomplish! To say nothing of the bad habits you're sure to (finally) crush.  As aggressive well-meaning as they are, those articles promising more and better ultimately leave me feeling less than.  It's beyond time for resolution evolution! Inner-voice coach, author, musician, and podcaster Kelly Covert agrees. After years of failing to live up to grand resolutions, Kelly swapped quantitative perfectionism - those mostly material goals our culture loves to measure - for kinder habits. Kelly distilled these techniques into a quarterly journal called The Enoughness Planner. I love this format! Unlike traditional goal-setting, this guide prompts participants to discern the difference between conditioned expectations and deeply-rooted intentions. Once identified, you create a personalized routine to support what Kelly calls everyday worthiness. After that, it's just a matter of building upon activities that make you feel good rather than ticking tasks off a homogenized list of accomplishments. Kinder habits and everyday worthiness. Better goals for the New Year.  Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

Episode 119. "It's sort of like using frequency as a pharmacy.” ~Shannon Harris ***All music in this episode (other than our theme music) is used with permission from Shannon Harris, and is composed, produced, and copyrighted by Shannon.*** It's not a stretch to say that travel is a form of self-care. As this series transitions from unusual travel paths to uncommon self-care, it's not a stretch to say that Shannon Harris is the perfect person to help bridge the gap. Shannon's a musician, DJ, world traveler, educator, Qi Gong practitioner, and mastermind behind Audio Pharmacology™.  What the...? You got it right if you're thinking sound as medicine.  By tapping into the science of sound, he harnesses frequencies associated with the body's systems. Acupuncturists enlist needles to impact the body's energy flow; Shannon works with music. The goal of each is the same: to positively impact organs, brainwaves, muscles, chakras, tissue, etc.  To further his self-directed, sound-centric education, Shannon's made travel a priority. Before the pandemic, he gigged around the globe, using his downtime to learn from local elders and spiritual leaders.  These days, he's sticking closer to home. While he waits for the world to reopen, Shannon's putting the finishing touches on a project that's near to my heart: an immersive experience tailored to the needs of Chicago public school students.  Interested in Shannon's original conscious music compositions?

Kelle and Andrea, her guest, share stories of specific manifestations and how what we put out with intention is often what we get back.
