How to Defeat the Blank Page: A Writer's Greatest EnemyAh, the blank page. That cold, unfeeling void staring back at you, silently judging your every hesitation. It's the sworn enemy of every writer—from seasoned novelists to first-time scribblers—and yet, it's where every masterpiece begins. How cruel.If you've ever stared at an empty page and felt a mix of dread and frustration, you're not alone. Every writer, no matter how experienced, has faced the suffocating silence of the blank page. But here's the good news: the blank page isn't invincible. In fact, it's just waiting for you to take the first step. And that's what we're here to talk about today.Recently, we released something very different: a mini-episode video called “The Blank Page: Enemy of the Creative Soul.” It's a funny, relatable take on the eternal battle between writers and their greatest nemesis. If you haven't seen it yet, we've brought it to life with humor, a touch of drama, and some surprisingly practical advice. (Check it out and let us know what you think!)But for those of you who prefer the written word, let's dive deeper into how you can tackle the blank page and start turning your ideas into words.1. Why Is the Blank Page So Scary?The blank page can feel like a mirror for all our fears as writers:* What if my idea isn't good enough?* What if I'm not good enough?* What if I write 3,000 words only to realize it's utter rubbish?It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the weight of expectation, but here's the truth: the blank page doesn't care about perfection. In fact, its job is to be filled—with anything. Your job is to give it something to hold, no matter how messy, silly, or imperfect.2. The Secret to Conquering the Blank PageThere's no single magic formula to overcome the fear of starting, but here are some tried-and-true strategies that work for us:Start Small and SillyNot every word you write has to be gold. In fact, most first drafts are pure chaos—and that's okay. Write something ridiculous if you need to. For example:The avocado king declared war on the banana republic. It was a battle no one saw coming.See? It's silly, but it's writing! Sometimes the act of putting any words on the page is enough to break through the fear.Lower the StakesStop thinking about writing as “creating a masterpiece.” Think of it as an experiment, a doodle, a rough sketch. Give yourself permission to write badly. It's easier to edit a terrible sentence than to edit nothing at all.Set a TimerUse the Pomodoro Technique or set a timer for 10 minutes. Tell yourself, “I only have to write for this long.” Often, you'll find that starting is the hardest part, and once you're rolling, the words come more easily.Ask QuestionsWhen you're stuck, start by asking questions about your story. What does your character want? What's the worst thing that could happen to them today? If you're not writing fiction, ask yourself what problem you're trying to solve for your reader.3. A Writer's Pep TalkIf you're feeling overwhelmed, remember this: Every writer you admire has felt exactly how you feel right now. Even the greats have stared at the blank page and thought, I have no idea what I'm doing.But they pushed through. They started with one messy sentence, then another, and another. That's all writing is—a series of imperfect sentences that somehow come together to make something meaningful.You don't have to write a masterpiece today. You don't even have to write well. You just have to write.4. What Did You Think?This mini-episode was a bit of an experiment for us, blending humor with advice to tackle one of the most universal struggles writers face. Did it resonate with you? Did it make you laugh? Did it help you stare down your blank page with a little more courage?We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. Should we create more of these mini-episodes? What other writing challenges would you like us to tackle (with a bit of humor, of course)?As always, thank you for being part of our writing community. Now go forth and fill that blank page—even if it's just with your grocery list. It's a start.Happy writing!Subscribe for More Fun and Advice: This is a public episode.

Summary In this podcast episode, Ping will delve into the critical yet often overlooked topic of self-care for artists. The episode will explore how creativity can be nurtured through intentional self-care practices and why it's essential for sustaining both creative output and personal well-being. This episode will highlight the unique challenges artists face—such as burnout, creative block, and isolation—and provide practical self-care tips to ensure longevity in both their artistic practice and personal life.Key Themes for the Episode1.The Intersection of Creativity and Self-Care•Overview: The episode will begin by exploring how creativity and self-care are interconnected. Ping will talk about how the creative process can be both exhilarating and draining and why taking care of one's mental, emotional, and physical health is vital to maintaining creative flow.•Key Message: Art isn't created in a vacuum—nurturing the artist is as important as nurturing the art. Taking care of yourself allows for more sustainable, fulfilling creative work.2.Challenges Artists Face with Self-Care•Overview: This segment will address common challenges artists face when it comes to self-care. Ping will discuss the unique pressures artists experience, such as:•Creative Burnout: Feeling creatively exhausted due to overwork or high pressure to produce.•Isolation: Artists often work alone, which can lead to loneliness and a lack of external validation.•Imposter Syndrome: Doubting one's artistic abilities or worth, leading to stress and anxiety.•Balancing Art and Life: Juggling personal life responsibilities (like motherhood for Ping) while maintaining a consistent creative practice.•Key Message: Acknowledging these challenges is the first step to overcoming them. Self-care can mitigate these stressors and prevent burnout.3.Building a Self-Care Routine for Artists•Overview: Ping will share practical tips for how artists can incorporate self-care into their daily routines. She can break this down into physical, mental, and creative self-care.•Physical Self-Care: Artists need to take care of their bodies to support their creative practice, especially if they work long hours in potentially static or physically taxing positions (e.g., standing at an easel or sitting at a desk).

Discovering Creativity: An Intimate Conversation with Scott EricksonWhat does it mean to live a creative life? Is creativity a talent, or is it an innate intelligence that we all possess? In this week's episode of The Creative Genius Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the remarkable artist and storyteller, Scott Erickson, to explore these questions and so much more. Scott's journey as an artist has been deeply influenced by his unique experience with aphantasia—a condition where one cannot visualize images in their mind's eye—and he opens up about how this has shaped his creative expression.Together, we delve into the haunting nature of creativity, the role of pain in transforming life into art, and the importance of emotional intelligence in understanding the human experience. Scott's reflections on gratitude, surrender, and navigating the inner voice will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with self-doubt or felt overwhelmed by the weight of their creative aspirations.But more than that, this conversation serves as a gentle reminder that creativity is not a linear journey. It's messy, it's beautiful, and it's deeply human. Scott's raw honesty will inspire you to listen more closely to your inner voice and trust that, even in the chaos, there's a path to something beautiful.

Break through the chains that keep you tied down.  Hello, my friends. I am so excited to get to talk to you today. I didn't think I was going to get an episode in because we have guests at our house and I really have trouble balancing work and family duties when I'm around people that I haven't got to see very often. And I know some of you can relate with that, but we just came back from the zoo and I have a minute and I'm feeling super inspired to share something with you guys. I have been, for some reason, really listening in on manifestation lately. I've been tuning into it. I've been deciphering what feels correct to me and what feels incorrect. And I just wanted to share my overall experiences with you guys. I just going to say flat out, I do not consider myself an expert in this at all. However, I can clearly look through at times in my life where I have been able to manifest things into in my world, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and what I see actually happens. So I know it's possible. And I know there's a lot of mumbo jumbo out there will say a lot of little whispers and static in the airways about this topic. So hey, why not? Let's talk about it. But first, let's go ahead and roll those credits because I have so much to go over with you guys. All right, here we go. Hey, friend, welcome to deep healing for creative entrepreneurs. My name is Aubrey Barr, and I am a subconscious release technique practitioner and photography business owner. I know you are sick of ending your day feeling overwhelmed and exhausted, and you are seeking a solution to help you feel creatively inspired and actively engaged in your business as well as professionalism. In this podcast, we are going to dig into any limiting beliefs or subconscious programs that are keeping you in a space filled with anxiety and stress. This work is not a temporary solution for your life. No, this is a complete transformation. So grab your coffee or tea and let's start you on the road to healing. And let me just say, you can do this. you are worth it, and you are meant to thrive in life and business. So let's dig in. So something that comes up a lot with people who talk about manifesting and people who try to do manifesting, whether you're a student or someone who feels like you're a coach, wherever you're at, there's this idea that the way that you feel is the way that things will be. And I believe it was Neville Goddard who said, assume the feeling of your wish fulfilled and observe the route that your attention follows. Okay. So a lot of people hear this and they think that they are supposed to feel into what that manifestation is like. So they're going to feel what it feels like to have this million dollar home or to have that partner that's just like the best thing that ever happened to you. And I do think there's truth to that, right? There's truth to feeling that deep inside. I talk about it all the time. When I feel into my gratitudes, when I allow myself to move to that higher vibration, I change my day. I absolutely stop maybe a bad day in its tracks and rearrange things and feel into that. I feel first and then the gratitude comes, right? Right. But what gets misconstrued a lot, I think, is that people think that when you are manifesting something and you are feeling into something, then you cannot waver from that feeling. So if I am manifesting this dream spouse, he's just like this incredible person. I know what I want to feel like around him. And I allow that to be my thing. And then you go on a date and you meet someone who you think is going to be the right guy. And it's just like, no, this is not happening whatsoever. And you actually leave feeling crappy. happy, right? You leave feeling unfulfilled and feeling really hopeless about, you know, your future with somebody. That moment, okay, is not going to break you. It's not going to be the end all of your manifestation journey. And I think people get so stuck in feeling like it has to feel good all the time. They have to always hold on to that feeling that they miss out on learning the opportunities. They miss out on learning like this experience has taught me what I do not want. And not only has it done that, but it's pushed me now in such a way that I am so motivated to go the other direction that I cannot even waver from that path now, right? So using your emotions for fuel towards this manifestation is always going to be better. It's always going to allow you to get closer. Does that make sense? I can't tell you how many times I have felt like, okay, I need to make this amount of money and I'm going to manifest it into my life. And I have all these offerings, which you guys know I do. And I do so many things. So I can manifest it through photography. I can manifest it through even doing my work, my subconscious work, but also massage work, right? I can, there's just ways for me to get it. Let's say that. And so I set that intention. I put it out there. I imagine what it's like. I feel into that. And then I have a bad day. And this day sucks so bad that it's hard for me to even feel gratitude. This happens to me too. I am human just like you are. But when those times happen and it's hard for me to lean into that, I tell you what, sometimes that is my biggest day. I end up booking two clients. I end up getting a photography contract that's $3,000, right? Those things happen on those off days too. And I'm sure if you take a minute and think back through your life at times when things you wanted to happen, and maybe you were feeling super pushed about it, and you were feeling just kind of down about it, those moments were not in vain. They were not perfect. They were not the perfect day on the most wonderful thing you were doing, and just like your emotions were so amazing, right? Sometimes it's those moments when we're not having the greatest day. What we need to understand is that when we set life in motion, and when we allow ourselves to imagine something better for ourselves. We are imagining in a different realm. We're not imagining in the 3D, right? Because if we were doing that, then we would have to play out exactly how each of those things were coming to us. We'd have to say, okay, when I go to the coffee shop at 8 a.m., that is where I will meet Mr. Right. He's going to be standing right there. He's going to actually even pay for my order. He's going to do all these things, right? That's ridiculous. And that puts puts limitations on us. So when we imagine things and we manifest things or we think we're manifesting things in the 3D, that is actually limiting ourselves. And so I've done this a million times too, where I will say, okay, well, I'm going to sell this course. It's going to be incredible. I really feel inclined to sell it. It's going to do so amazing. I'm going to bring in this amount of money, yada, yada. And then what happens is I bring in that amount of money, but it was in a completely different way. So I knew I was doing something right. I knew I was on the right path, but yet it wasn't playing out the way I thought it would. What I want you to understand, okay, is that it is not only okay to not feel great about something 100% of the time, but it also is completely normal and it's not bad. No emotions that you feel are bad. Emotions are neutral, okay? Okay, it's the experience that you put on that emotion that allows it to be a good or bad thing. There's no escaping emotion, unless you're a psychopath. That's a podcast episode on its own, right? But there's no escaping that. Whatever you have going on in your life is for your benefit to help you move towards something else. I know that's a hard pill to swallow sometimes. So let's take that example around finding that spouse, finding that significant other, right? and putting a limit on it. When we say it out loud, it sounds ridiculous. But when we use our experiences that we've had in life that maybe were crappy experiences, things that we do not wish on our daughters, we do not wish on our friends, we don't wish on our enemies. We want people to find what they're looking for in life. If you take that experience and you label it, then you're constantly allowing yourself to stay in that 3D where you are controlling everything. Instead, Let's release the need to label something. Let's allow ourselves to manifest something good into our lives without having the limitations. Right? Let's lead with our emotion, whether that's good or bad, whether that feels comfortable or uncomfortable. Okay? So when Neville Goddard said, assume the feeling of your wish fulfilled and observe that route that your attention follows. He did not mean that you always have to stay in that vibration. What he meant was assume you're going to get there. In other words, when you put time and energy and effort into something that you really want and you say flat out, this is what I desire. This is what I know I deserve. I don't know how I'm going to get there. That's the part right there. I do not know how I'm going to get there, but I'm going to provide that there's paths in certain directions. I'm going to be open to opportunities that come my way that would push me in a different direction, right? So assuming the emotion is then trusting, isn't it? It's more about trusting that whatever it is you have asked for is already coming to you and you detach that emotion from it. You are no longer restricting yourself. Everything that has a negative emotion attached to it and it feels like I need that and and you put that word out there, need, and I know you know what I'm talking about. Like I need $10,000. Like I need it yesterday. I have to pay my mortgage. I have to do this, whatever. When you add that extra need to it, what you're actually doing, restricting that from coming your way. You're putting up a boundary and you don't even know it. So here's the coin I want you to take with you. Next time you're having a bad day, why don't you feel into those emotions? Say, you know what? I'm having a bad day because this actually just sucks, right? Like this just doesn't feel good. I'm sad. I feel grief. I feel guilt. I'm having a bad day and that's okay. But don't assume that nothing good is going to happen to you now. Don't revert back to that part of you that feels hopeless, right? That part of you is a child. I want you to understand that. That is the child in all of us. I've met plenty of adults who still have that child in them that has not let go of that death grip, okay? You don't want to be that person. You want to have enough emotional intelligence to understand that you are going to have bad days. You're going to feel like crap sometimes some days are going to suck like it's just it's gonna suck you guys i know this you know this but understanding that you will come out the other side not giving up hope in everything that you are and everything that you've worked for that is where the magic stands and i believe in my opinion that's how we still manifest through all of this that's how people can still manifest fest and have bad days and have good days and, you know, feel like, oh my gosh, it's almost here one day and the next day, like I'm a, I'm an utter failure. So please keep that in your mind. Keep that in your heart. Understand that you're a human and allow yourself to roll with it. Allow whatever opportunities to come your way. Come with openness. Like, I don't know how this is going to work, but here's this opportunity. It's not what I thought it was going to be, but I feel good about it. And I'm going to let that happen to me. I'm going to see what happens here. So I hope that's helpful to you guys. I don't know why that was on my mind, but it is something that I've dealt with in the the past and I thought it might be a really good conversation for us to have. I want to tell you guys I am so celebrating right now because this podcast finally got to 10,000 downloads. That was a huge goal of mine since I started. There was just something about that 10,000 downloads that I was yearning for and I might have, honestly, just between you and I, I might have held on to that too much and even restricted it myself for a while. But we all have to learn from something, thing, right? Here I am. I'm still going strong. I had got my 10,000 downloads. I see so much more in the future of this podcast, in the future of me with my business. And I am so sorry if you can hear kids yelling in the background. They're having the time of their lives, these cousins. So I apologize, but I did want to record today. I did want to share my message with you guys. And I also wanted to take the opportunity to tell you I had a really important epiphany about the work that I do. And I decided that I wanted to open up my course, Deep Healing for the Creative Soul, for more souls. And I want to make this accessible to people. I am seeing a lot of businesses go down. I'm seeing a lot of artists and creatives just feeling hopeless. And I'm. I happen to know that there's a lot of hope out there, that there's a lot of growth and we do not need to live in scarcity, but I want to spread that message to you. And I want to reach as many people as I possibly can. And so I decided to reshape the way I do this program. I am no longer offering private sessions with that program. I used to offer four private sessions plus weekly group calls. And I'm taking that back a notch in order to provide this beautiful masterpiece that I worked so hard on and came through intuition and divine guidance to so many people. I want to offer it to you. And I want it to be at a price point that you can reasonably say you can invest in yourself. Now, we all know that you are worth every penny of it. when it was $2,222, you are worth it. The work is worth it. This is life-changing. It's not just something I talk about. It's something my clients live. It's something that changes lives like that. But instead of that price point, I decided to keep it to 16 weeks of pure magic self-paced work bi-weekly group sessions. So what does that mean? That means every first and third Wednesday. We will be meeting as a group. One of the monthly meetings is going to be in the middle of the day, Eastern Time, and one is going to be in the evening, Easter Time. So we're going to try to accommodate people from all over. I know this podcast is a global podcast, and I want to be able to offer that to you guys. Because I have the opportunity to change what is offered in the program, it takes the weight off of me to have such a high price point, and I'm able to bring it down to $8.88. Okay, so if this sounds like something that you want in on, I am only offering 10 spots at this rate. We are going to try it out, consider it a beta. This is the same price as my original beta program, by the way, that sold out. So I am offering 10 spots only. I sent out an email this morning and I already filled one of the spots. So I've got nine spots left. It's an incredible deal. Please know there are still payments that you can do. You can do a monthly payment, but it does come out to be $9.99. If you do the full payment, it's $8.88. You guys, this is insane. This is my way to get back to all of you that I know are in that space of just struggling, not feeling like you can manifest things, not feeling like you can fully embody everything that's coming to you. And I want to change that with you. I want you to look back and say, you know what? That was the best program I ever took. That was the best time I had with Aubrey. Because I'll tell you something, none of my clients are upset when they finish sessions with me, when they do this course with me. Nobody's ever upset about it. Like everybody knows they need it. It's taking that leap, believing in yourself, knowing you're worth it, knowing that now is the time that you're worth it. That's when the magic happens. So I can't promise that I will keep this course at this rate, but right now it feels so good to offer it to you guys. In a different package like this. So follow the link below in the show notes, check it out, see if it fits. Let me know if you have any questions whatsoever. I'm always happy to answer them. And I am just so excited to see who comes in here with me. And I'm going to be honest, I am manifesting 10 of the most amazing people out there. I am manifesting you into this program. Graham. So wherever you are, whoever you are, I am just so excited to get to share this energy with you, to get to help you to heal. Finally, we're going to save you a ton of time, money, energy that you're needing for therapy through this course. I can promise you that. I hear it from every single one of my clients. All right, guys, I hope you have a beautiful week. I have a special message coming later on this week. It is my birthday, and that is going to be so amazing. I absolutely am so ready to celebrate. So I hope you guys have fun. We'll talk to you soon. I hope this podcast spoke to you in some way.

But if by chance it doesn't, we might be going over something today that's actually going to shift your mindset and shift the way you think about your business and about your personal life. I want to talk to you guys today about instant gratification. And I know everybody already knows what I'm talking about when I say those two words. It is absolutely in our face and in every way in society, everybody wants that instant gratification. They want that Amazon package delivered in two hours, right? Not two days. They want those likes on their post and that viral TikTok or whatever it is you put out in the world. Hey friend, welcome to Deep Healing for Creative Entrepreneurs. My name is Aubrey Barr and I am a subconscious release technique practitioner and photography business owner. I know you are sick of ending your day feeling overwhelmed and exhausted and you are seeking a solution to help you feel creatively inspired and actively engaged in your business as well as personal life. In this podcast, we are going to dig into any limiting beliefs or subconscious programs that are keeping you in a space filled with anxiety and stress. This work is not a temporary solution for your life. No, this is a complete transformation. So grab your coffee or tea and let's start you on the road to healing. And let me just say, you can do this. You are worth it and you are meant to thrive in life and business. So let's. Some of you listening today to this episode are wanting to start a business and don't know where to begin. Kudos for you for looking at the mindset behind it because wow, a lot of us didn't realize there was so much to the subconscious when you're starting your own business. For the rest of you who already have a business but are looking at scaling or even shifting into a different realm. Maybe it's mentoring that you've been wanting to do or shifting complete genres, right? Whatever you're doing right now where you know you're kind of stuck at one point and you want to grow past that, that is why you're listening today. I'm going to be straight up honest with you guys, okay? I have paid a lot of money to get coaches on the business side of things that will help me form my business, market my business, put out content for my business. And I'm going to tell you right now, the best coaches and the best programs for me all had a strategy forward approach with a tiny bit of mindset work in the back. Let me explain this to you a little bit, okay? Strategy forward, what I mean by that is that, hey, this is how you start a business. This is how you maintain a business. This is how you talk about it and you share it with people. And these are the points you want to make. And this is how you want to come up with your ideal client and speak to that person. There's all this strategy behind it how many times you should post you know what kinds of questions you want to ask your audience how you want to engage with them all of these are so beneficial and I'm not overlooking them or downgrading them but I promise you your strategy is not as important as your mindset. And part of the reason why this is so essential is that instant gratification. It's that need to see that what we're doing is working. And the critical thing about this is that what you're doing is not going to work if your mindset is still keeping you in that lower vibration, in that lower world, that one where you don't believe you can scale, where you don't really think you are worth people's time, where you don't really think that you can charge that much and still have clients, right? There's a whole mindset behind that. that people who make a lot of money are the ones who have no issue making claims about their work. They do not tittle-tattle, tittle-tattle, I don't know if that's a word. They don't go back and forth in their heads about, should I do this? Should I do that? No, they do it. They go for it. And whoever wants to meet them on their level will buy with them. They will be in their world. They will choose to work with them. Okay. When you are stuck in this place, and I know it's subconscious, so some of you may not even recognize it. Okay. So just allow yourself to think, is this me? You're stuck in a place where you know you need to raise your prices, but you don't want to do it. You've been fighting with it because you honestly believe that those people that have already purchased with you will never come back to you. Okay. OK, and even though the logic is not sound there, OK, because we all know that we're all paying extra for things, we are dealing with inflation right in our face where it's super obvious. In the past, it's been slow and kind of like, oh, that feels like it's a little bit more now. Right now, it's in our face. There's no way to avoid the fact that we are paying more for things we used to pay less for. OK, so when you think about that, why why would we not expect that from those people in our lives that we do work with? I personally do not expect my hairdresser to charge me the same thing as she did 10 years ago. Like that would be crazy, right? But yeah, we put that burden on ourselves and we're doing it from a subconscious level. We are comfortable making $500 for this family session. That feels good to us and it feels sellable. We're not comfortable with asking for $750 for the same thing. Right? We actually have an income line, a salary cap in our subconscious that's saying, no, we can't go above that. And that's what a lot of you are dealing with. But yet you're seeking other strategy, right? You're looking for new ways to market and that's fine. I'm not saying you shouldn't at all. What I am saying is we're getting, putting too much focus on the the strategy and not enough on the mindset. I mentioned my coaches earlier. Every coach that I had that I have a high amount of respect for, and I absolutely love that I spent money on their program, every single one of those know without a shadow of doubt that mindset work is super super powerful. And it is often what people need to break through their current income levels or their current growth strategy. Because maybe you're growing so that you put less time into your work, but you're still making the same amount, right? It's not always about that money coming in, right? Either way, it's scaling. So those people absolutely know that. And actually, Actually, one of my coaches sent out an email about me two days ago. I was completely shocked to read it. She was talking about scaling your business to 10K months. And she is a very, very good coach. I know that sounds like a... Total selling point now because we hear it so often, oh, you want to make 10K in one month, right? And it's definitely out there. I'll give you that. But this coach in particular is crazy good at what she does. And she is very much worth the investment. But she sent out an email about that. And she talked about how people are always wanting that instant gratification. They are wanting that opportunity to put in, even just purchase a course, and then think that the next Oh, bam, 10K, I made it, right? And it sounds so dumb when we just say it, but it is subconsciously what we're expecting. We're upset because it didn't work in the first month, right? We don't think that we have to put that much time into it because we're learning it. That's what we're here for. We think it's supposed to be fast. But nonetheless, I wanted to read a little bit about what she wrote because I think it's the best advice and it just 100% goes along with my way way of thinking about how I work on the subconscious mind. So I wanted to share some with you guys. Okay. It says, how long does it take to make 10K a month? This is the most common question I get asked. And the answer is always, it depends. It depends on what your childhood looked like. It depends on your ability to handle pressure. It depends on how long you take to make decisions. Because your childhood, your traumas, and your conditioning affect how you show up for your life and your business. And how you show up defines the results you'll get. This is 100% true. This is what I have seen over and over again. This is where people miss the mark. People will spend days, hours, months working on strategy, and they still won't be able to to succeed because their mindset is not accepting of their new goal and their new growth, okay? The main motto, you can achieve anything you want, you just have to work harder. And if you haven't reached your goal, then it's because you haven't worked hard enough. You guys hear me talk about this all the time. It's that hard work mentality. It's a generational trauma. And it's absolutely the reason why a lot of you can't make passive income and you can't make sales quickly, okay? Totally, you guys, listen, this is totally, totally, I made up a word for this. It is totally fixable. Like a hundred percent, you can get past that. It's not going to hold you back as long as you know what to do about it. But she went on to say, It wasn't until I understood how to manage my capacity, work through a lot of my childhood trauma and workaholism, and investing heavily into becoming aware and healing those wounds that I was able to scale to 100K months. And just a side note, I personally know that she makes well over 100K in a month at this point. But she goes on to say, your business success will not just depend on the strategies you you know, but also on your early childhood and generational experiences that have shaped your whole life. I know many of you struggle to show up and let yourself be seen. You struggle with imposter syndrome or not feeling good enough. That's why I wanted to introduce you to my VIP client, Aubrey Barr. Now, I was absolutely flabbergasted at reading this email because Because she's absolutely talking about the mindset work that I love and talk about all the time. And she 100% agrees with me. Someone who's making way more, let's just say it, than I am, okay? Way more. But she understands the value of the subconscious work that I do. And I am honored that she understands that and that she shares that with her world because because she has a lot of reach out there. So that definitely made me happy. But let's be honest, if I didn't go out every day and share this passion and this knowledge with people, and be able to help them move past their limiting beliefs, and guess what? I show up, even though it doesn't always feel like I'm getting that instant gratification. I'm not always getting top downloads on my podcast or, you know, a crap ton of people on my YouTube videos, which are few and far between. Like not everything I do is going viral and getting all that traction that feels beautiful and accepting and amazing, right? But guess what? I'm still out there. I'm still doing my thing because I believe in what I do. And I have a why underneath here that says, you know what? You need to help other people to understand. What is actually holding them back, and then show them the blueprint. Show them the way in which they're going to be able to move past these issues. Because no matter what business you have now, it will not succeed if it keeps coming across these negative thought patterns. Eventually, you will give in. Most people are not strong enough to keep fighting and fighting day in and day out without getting that mindset shift and mindset support. This is the ultimate goal of subconscious release technique and being able to heal from the inside out. So wherever you're at, I invite you to join us for Deep Healing for the Creative Soul. I am starting a new group here in three weeks. And if you guys sign up today, I am giving you 40% off, which is crazy, crazy good. OK, you can do payments.

However, for those of you who are sick of being on that hamster wheel, you're sick of turning and getting the same results. I want you in my world. I want to provide a space for you to be more than you can imagine in every phase of life. That is my goal. That is my passion. That is why I'm here. And that is who I am at the core level. So my friend, please join us in this next round and be ready. Okay. Just be ready for good things to happen to you because that's exactly what we're going to do. We're going to release any of the bad programming that's telling you those things will not happen for you. That's telling you to give up.

The wonder and beauty of coffee is a catalyst for countless career coffee professionals and customers alike. The flavors and creation of special moments that draws us in, satisfy some sense of adventure as well as nurtures a need for belonging. On the business side of coffee it can be very easy for those elements to be lost and replaced with conformity, safety, and a sole focus on numbers that sucks the life out of what was once a joyous thing.  For today's guest, reanimating the industry with creativity, passion, and the joy of telling stories through drinks has been a 7 year long pursuit that has shifted the minds and hearts of thousands. Ryan is the Founder and Creative Director of Discourse Coffee, one of the world's most innovative coffee shops, and Agency Cocktail Lounge, the nation's first fully hybrid cocktail bar, offering each cocktail both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. He is also the best-selling author of “The New Art of Coffee: From Morning Cup to Caffeine Cocktail” (Rizzoli, 2023), resident mixologist at Fox 6 News, and Creator / Co-Host of the podcast “Hot Coffee for the Creative Soul”.    Ryan has served as a brand ambassador for Espro, Barfly, Apothekary, and Free Spirts, and has hosted workshops on drink-making and creative thinking throughout the US, France, and Canada. His drinks have been enjoyed coast to coast, twice featured on the Emmy nominated PBS show “Wisconsin Foodie”, and covered in print in Forbes, Food & Wine, Barista Magazine, Punch Mag, Plate Magazine, Fresh Cup, Daily Coffee News, and many others. In today's episode we are going to talk all about the spark that lit the flame of Ryan's businesses and approach to coffee, the need for baristas to express their craft using coffee, how this sometimes crazy, always fun business works, and what YOU can do to create menu magic for your staff and customers.    Links: www.discourse.coffee @discoursecoffeemke @ryan.castelaz "The New Art of Coffee" book   Related episodes: RoR # 21 : Data, Community, and the Art of Roasting w/ U.S. Roasters Champion Andrew Coe of Elevator Coffee 410 : A Conversation w/ 2023 U.S. Barista Champion, Isaiah Sheese of Archetype Coffee

Kilga - Wir sprechen über ein Familienunternehmen der ganz besonderen Art. Wir sprechen über die Entwicklung von einem Möbelhaus zu einer Designagentur. Seit drei Generationen steckt das Wort “Design” in den Köpfen der Familie Kilga. Bereits in den 70er-Jahren wurde die Idee eines Concept Stores vorweggenommen, indem die Großmutter und der Großvater von Lorenz Kilga ein Möbelgeschäft mit einem Café verbanden. Dieser Ort ist der Ausgangspunkt für die spätere Möbelagentur Kilga, die 1988 gegründet wurde. Hier fungierte der Vater von Lorenz als klassischer Vermittler zwischen Herstellern und Händlern. Die Familien-DNA des Versuchens und des Hinterfragens sorgte schlussendlich dafür, dass im Jahr 2018 die holistische Agentur “Design Network” mit Fokus auf der strategischen Markenentwicklung gegründet wurde.  Im Podcast-Interview spricht Lorenz Kilga mit Podcast-Host Robert Pacher über die Ideologie, Schönheit, Geschmack, Strategie und das Warum. ⬇️ **Lorenz Kilga** Co-Founder & Creative Soul bei Design Network GmbH

Click here to learn more about Deep Healing for the Creative Soul In this episode, we journey into the core of fear – an emotion that often holds us back and yet plays a vital role in our survival. We tackle how fear keeps you grounded, sparks your instinctual responses like fight, flight, or fawn, and how it acts as an integral alarm system during potential dangers. By diving into the intense experience of a nerve-wracking encounter with a bear, we shed light on the physiological reactions triggered by fear, such as shaking and chills. Beyond its primal role, we explore fear as a misunderstood accomplice that outlines our capacities and gently pushes us to break beyond them. However, we caution against a dysregulated nervous system, a product of a hectic lifestyle, that might incite fear in inappropriate circumstances. We emphasize the importance of acknowledging its true nature, developing skills to manage our nervous system, understanding the root causes of fear, and building solutions to allay distressing situations. Fear can be a hurdle that halts progress in personal lives and business ventures, but toppling these barriers paves the way for a healthier, self-assured, and successful existence. In this enlightening conversation, we highlight the significance of introspection, breaking down our fears, and shifting our mindset to prevent them from inhibiting your progress or ambitions. We illustrate the contribution of intuitive alignment using the recent course as an example and how, despite the fear of failure, it was not an impediment to its realization. Observations from personal experiences underline the advice shared, accentuating the need to confront fears fearlessly and assess their actual impact. You are encouraged to take accountability for your thoughts and feelings. The ultimate objective of this episode is to inspire listeners to metamorphose into the individuals on the opposite side of fear. The episode culminates on an appreciative note, expressing gratitude for this medium and the wonderful opportunities it affords to connect with everyone. If you have been held captive by fear and it has obstructed your pursuit of dreams, we invite you to join us on an enlightening journey with the upcoming course, 'Deep Healing for the Creative Soul'. This course is rooted in personal experiences and is designed to guide you through deep healing, emotional reconnection, and unleashing your creative potential to the maximum. With a whole module dedicated to releasing fear, this course serves as your stepping stone towards altering your outlook and improving your receptiveness towards financial gain. The concluding note of the episode is a gentle reminder that fear doesn't need to reign supreme – it's high time we took charge and opened doors to infinite possibilities. An invitation is extended to all creatives grappling with fear and a limiting money mindset.   My name is Aubrey and I am an intuitive Coach and healer.

Last week to join Deep Healing for the Creative Soul before the price increase. Have you ever wanted to do something that feels completely aligned to you and you know it would help you, but yet something inside if you won't let you take action to make it yours? Maybe it's a course, some energy work or hiring an assistant.  Often times we will assume that it's not meant for us but in reality, sometimes our fear is so strong that it's taking over that aspect of our life and making us feel like we could never make that choice or we could never sign up for that program or we could never start her own business etc.   If we let fear dictate our big decisions in life, then we will never grow. Because growth only happens outside of our comfort zone, when we take chances and when we are hoping for the best. Growth doesn't happen when we stay small. The biggest question I have  for you,  is who is benefiting from you staying small? It's not you, my friend.  As a Spiritual Coach and fellow Artist, I have been able to see the joy in running a business intuitively and from a healed space.

When this comes up for my clients, I always do an Energetic Check on their Money Blocks. Without fail, there is usually something in your energy that is resisting "easy work".  What if we could get rid of the idea that work can't ever be easy or that "money doesn't grow on trees." Then we get to release the blocks that are keeping passive income as a non-option for us. This works also if you feel like you HAVE to work hard everyday and not allow your leisure time except for special occasions.

This was a fun interview to do with someone who I've admired from afar for years.
