“Expectations are the enemy to the creative process. Sometimes you have to let go of the known to see the unknown.” Today I'm speaking with James McCrae, an author, poet, and meme artist based in Austin, Texas. He is the founder of
What happens when you make a big decision but still have lingering doubt, fear, and even despair? How do you know when a “download” from the universe is worth following, and what does test-driving a decision look like?

How do you “un-rut” yourself? If you want to say yes to exploring a pivot, what do you need to say no to? What's the secret dream?

“As long as we settle for thinking inside the brain, we'll remain bound by the limits of that organ. But when we reach outside it with intention and skill, our thinking can be transformed. It can become as dynamic as our bodies, as airy as our spaces, as rich as our relationships—as capacious as the whole wide world.” —Annie Murphy Paul, The Extended Mind In this second half of a two-part solo series, I'm sharing 6 more strategies that have helped me build (and trust) my intuition at increasingly subtle levels. If you haven't already, be sure to listen to Part One here first. As always, I would love to hear from you! How do you practice the skill of following your intuition?

Intuition is always speaking to you in subtle ways. Are you listening? Intuition isn't a gift that is only bestowed on a special few; everyone can strengthen this muscle—how loudly you hear these signals, and the trust in yourself to take action on the information you're receiving.

Today's solo riff is on a three-word phrase that has helped quell countless waves of anxiety in the decade since I first heard it, wisdom passed from my friend Monica McCarthy's (aka MonBon's) mom then to the pages of Pivot. Pardon the occasional panting (lol) and background noise—err New York City soundscape—as I recorded this one on a big hill at the park, running up and down while throwing a giant log for Ryder to chase. He chases sticks, I chase ideas! This crossover episode originally aired on the Pivot podcast on April 2, 2023.
Today we're going behind the scenes of book launching, sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly (cries) resulting from the emotional rollercoaster that often surrounds the process of setting big projects loose into the world, including exhaustion, comparison, dashed hopes, and grief.
When you catch a wishie, what do you yearn for? Today's book club episode might shift your “wish” hereafter to just one powerful offering. Tosha Silver's grassroots-to-bestselling book Outrageous Openness: Letting the Divine Take the Lead is a cornerstone of my collection, one that changed my life when I first read it nearly a decade ago. The stories from this book were adapted from two years of Tosha's columns for the San Francisco Examiner, after she spent 25 years giving nearly 30,000 readings to people from all over the world. After OO became a self-published sensation, she got a traditional book deal and republished with Atria a few years later. More about Tosha: For the past 30 years, Tosha Silver has taught people around the world practical ways to align with Inner Love. She's the author of Outrageous Openness, Change Me Prayers, and It's Not Your Money. She particularly enjoys finding fresh, funny ways to embrace the Divine, while avoiding conventional jargon and cliches.

Feeling slow, stuck, uncertain, or in the midst of a morale dip? If so, today's minisode is for you—or for a business bestie who might need a little pick-me-up. I share a surprising shift from an encounter with Serendipity Signage; a portal to gratitude on a random New York City train station wall under a set of shattered windows. When you feel down, remind yourself (as I do) what Julian of Norwich, a 14th-century mystic, said: “All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.”

Creating online courses does not require a huge investment in time or money. Although they certainly can cost tens of thousands of dollars to produce, with professional video editing and branding, they don't have to. In fact, my favorite way to create and launch a course is with my future students! This follows agile design principles (check out the agile manifesto here). The goal is developing rapidly, with frequent input from key stakeholders, not building so much behind the scenes that what you're working on becomes out-of-date or out of touch with what your audience and potential future students actually need. This is one of the episodes I reference most frequently from the Pivot podcast (originally aired December 1, 2019), so I'm replaying it here for you today in case you're newer to the JB universe! I break down all the details of how I love launching and creating courses, and you can also read a summary of the steps on this page of the Pivot website.
Summer is here and you know what that means: it's time for my Top 10 Favourite Business Books!If you get to enjoy a little downtime during the warmer months (and I hope that you do!), these are the books that I highly recommend tucking into your luggage or your beach tote in the coming weeks. These aren't necessarily books that are hot off the presses, but each of them contains resonant business insights or strategies, no matter when they were first published.This year, I've made an effort to seek out and include more diverse authors in this list since exploring new perspectives is a great way to expand your own, and I'd love to have more of my mamapreneurs recognize elements of their own experiences!This year's list covers both mindset and business strategy, and includes books about implementing habits, cold calling, harnessing your energy, dealing with doubt and fear, and lessons on meditation written by a monk.Want to know which titles to add to your shopping list?

I just LOVE hearing from our listeners. This week's topic was inspired by a question I received about spiritual surrender. Oftentimes when we hear the word “surrender” we think of raising the white flag and giving up. But actually it is through the act of surrender that we truly connect with our power. Join me as we explore the art of letting go and how it can lead to a more joyful, purposeful and peaceful life. Episode highlights:Our higher spiritual selves are much wiser than our small, egoic minds. When we surrender we align with our higher selves and let go of the need to micromanage our lives from the level of ego. The power of spiritual surrender is in releasing attachments to outcomes and learning to flow with the current of life.For many people on the planet right now, fear rather than love is the guiding force of their lives. Spiritual surrender helps us to release fear and embrace loveYou can learn to have a different relationship with fear so it does not control your life.Trusting life means we live from a higher level of awareness where we know that everything in life serves a purpose, and we no longer judge certain experiences as “good” or “bad.” Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us on in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?

She and her team help people look better, shop smarter, and create a coordinated wardrobe simply by discovering our best colors according to our hair, skin, and eye color. They have created a unique color analysis system that offers the most accurate color results available online. "It was freeing that I could actually go to the store and everything wasn't an option. That to me felt like freedom... it's this way that our brains work. We really need some limitations. And when it comes to shopping for clothes there are just so many options that some sort of boundaries are helpful for most of us." Join us for an inspiring discussion about the power of color that goes deeper than you might expect. Here are the details of this episode: Why we need to give ourselves permission to care about how we look on the outside (because it totally affects how we feel on the inside) The three key elements of fashion: color, shape & personal style (in that order of importance) The cure to "closet overwhelm" (hint: knowing your color palette is the key to simplifying & figuring out "what to wear") How genuine body acceptance starts with getting to know your body shape (and which clothes work for it) And a lot more...

In this episode, I am excited to share the magic of Kate Winch, who I had the opportunity of working with at a workshop I attended several years ago. Kate Winch is a transformational speaker, EFT expert, Qoya dance teacher, and intuitive counselor. Join us as she shares her journey and all about EFT (tapping) with us.Key takeaways from this episode:Negative emotions get stored in the body creating a disruption in our energy systems. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), aka “tapping,” works with the energy meridians allowing us to remove stuck energy and get the energy flowing again. Tapping is a simple and accessible technique that is really empowering because anyone can learn to do it. You simply tap on a series of meridian points, while repeating key phrases: starting with what you would like to release and ending with what you would like to experience instead. Tapping allows us to honor our feelings and love and accept ourselves exactly as we are without judgment. Tapping is also a quick and effective way to calm yourself down when triggered.Matrix Reimprinting is a deeper level of EFT that works with the energy of the inner child to help resolve childhood wounds and replace them with adult wisdom. Unresolved issues will bring up feelings of anxiety or tension in the body. When a past issue or trauma has been resolved, the memory will no longer trigger a strong emotional response.Kate leads us through a quick round of tapping. link below to some tapping video resources from Kate.Connect with Kate Winch here:Website: http://katewinch.com/Free Tapping Resources from Kate: http://katewinch.com/resources/IG: https://www.instagram.com/tapintomagic/FB: https://www.facebook.com/Tap-Into-Magic-In-Your-Biz-And-Life-160968657251670/?_rdc=1&_rdrBook mentioned in this episode: Outrageous Openness: Letting the Divine Take the Lead by Tosha SilverAdditional read: The Power of Focus: A Practical Guide to Emotional Self-Healing by Ann Weiser Cornell, Ph.D.Disclosure: I am an affiliate of Bookshop.org and I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase.Resources and info for EMDR: https://www.emdria.org/
Over the years, what I've noticed in a lot of my patients is a lack of fulfillment, a disconnection within themselves. A disconnection from their true selves. At some point, they made decisions that separated them from their true nature. So, how do we get back to our true knowingness? When I think about babies….they know what they need and want and raise their voice to ask for it, and I wonder how we go from that to being completely out of knowingness, out of tracks, unfulfilled, and not knowing who we are. How do we return to our deep knowingness, our true self? In this episode, we talk about finding our voice and reconnecting with who we truly are. We dive deep into why we get off track, the power of learning to say no, and why it is so important to stand for what we want. I share three simple yet effective ways of finding our authentic voice and begin the journey into reconnecting with ourselves. Today, you will find out what happens when you unpack your truths - even the most challenging and painful ones - and slowly but firmly start to trust in yourself again. In This Episode, You Will Learn:Why and how we start to betray our true nature (3:38)We are being bombarded with false versions of fulfillment, happiness, and success (5:22)How to create space for the supreme pleasure of saying YES (6:51)The first time I've heard my voice in a long time (10:18)Why we need to find quiet places where we can listen (14:01)My relationship with writing and reconnecting with my own voice (17:51)Resources Mentioned in this Episode:Book: Tosha Silver - Outrageous Openness: Letting the Divine Take the LeadBook: Ellen Newhouse - Nothing Ever Goes On Here: A MemoirLet's Connect!LinkedInTwitterWebsiteFacebook Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.

For the past 30 years she's taught people around the world ways to align with Inner Love.

One of the questions I’ve been thinking about lately is where God fits in self help. Do those who believe in God find the self-improvement journey easier? In this episode, I’m excited to welcome back Jenny Blake. She recently enrolled in Divinity School. My own undergraduate degree was in world religions, so I'm excited to have this conversation with Jenny about God, spirituality, and self help.

In Tosha Silver’s book Outrageous Openness: Letting the Divine Take the Lead, she offers this idea: “When you say to the Universe, ‘Oh, this is terrible!’ the Universe responds with, ‘You ain’t seen nothing yet.’ But when you say to the Universe, ‘Oh, this is so wonderful!’ the Universe responds with, ‘You ain’t seen nothing yet!’” I’d been literally walking around with anger and resentment, and this was a light bulb of insight that I needed for my own shift. Listen in to catch the whole story.

Suggested Resources Book: Outrageous Openness: Letting the Divine Take the Lead by Tosha Silver Book: Leadership Powers, 12 Powers For Successful Women by Sylvia Becker-Hill App: Inner Balance from Heart Math Insitute Bullying Story For my own experience, let me say that I had. I had in the past quite a short fuse. Is that an expression which makes sense for English speakers, so when I watched something which was against my values, some injustice, unfairness, it's at school or in business, oh my gosh. That triggered me and being German, I'm straightforward in my communication. So I had the tendency in the past to explode and say what I think and be quite straight and intense and sometimes to a degree which was hurting the other person. It sometimes went over the top and was not appropriate for the situation. There's a difference between stepping up when you see injustice and mentioning it and addressing it or leaching out because you feel subconsciously attacked in your own value system. So there's these two layers of appropriate addressing. Plus because my ego was still attached to my values, being here to act and threaten where my ego was reacting. So mindfulness gave me the tool to be able to even distinguish what I just shared with you. That there are two layers that, that it's not about not saying anything, it's about having the clarity and the confidence to address things which are not okay, but in a way which are productive and not coming from an own hurt ego reaction pattern where I'm protecting more my own values or whatever I'm feeling attacked. Maybe it's an argument, maybe it's a belief system. So mindfulness helps me to distinguish that. I was able to discover that and mindfulness helped me to train, to let go of the ego hurt reaction where I'm defending where I'm attacking the other person because I feel threatened and focus really on the productive part of the interaction. So mindfulness I think makes me a better person where this short fuse; it's now a very long fuse, so it needs now much more to trigger me that I lose control. So mindfulness ultimately gave me more control about the animal parts of me, the ego part, the subconscious mind parts, the parts where in the past I might have gone out of control in a painful way for others and myself.

In Feb 2015, I did a 5-day symposium consisting of 25 interviews with powerful and inspiring women sharing their stories and advice for transcending life’s struggles, fears and doing it their own way. We got so much incredible feedback on the interviews, we decided to turn it into a podcast. At times during the interviews when you hear us refer to the series or interviews that have already been done, keep in mind these interviews have been repurposed and may not follow the original order – but stay tuned because we’ll be airing four each month on Mondays alternating with fresh new episodes called “Ask Liz” every Wednesday. Fun story about today's podcast. When I was doing this first series of interviews, I had Tosha scheduled on a weekday morning at 9am. We were trying to connect on Skype but something was up with her computer and she couldn't get the camera to work. Knowing she lives in the Bay Area and that I was heading up there that coming weekend, I threw it out there to see if she was available to do the interview in person - and that's what we ended up doing! Was so cool to meet her and get to spend some time together in addition to doing the interview. Her book Outrageous Openness is one of those that I flip back through every now and again when I want to reconnect with myself and remember how easy it is to access the divinity within me. About Tosha Silver: I grew up in Pennsylvania thinking one day I would be a rabbi, a lawyer, or a weathergirl. But fate seemed to have other ideas. I graduated from Yale with a degree in English literature but along the way developed an unexpected passion for metaphysics and yogic philosophy. One way or another, whether teaching, writing, or doing private sessions, I’ve spent the last thirty years helping people access the Divine Beloved within. That’s my biggest passion. I adore helping people access the Divine in deep, alive and authentic ways, without the usual dogma or jargon so common in this realm. I especially love the Universe’s unexpected and wild sense of humor.Outrageous Openness: Letting the Divine Take the Lead, my first self-published book, gained a passionate audience around the world amongst people looking for fresh and vivid ways to open to the Divine. I’m thrilled that it was recently purchased by Atria Books who are bringing it to a wider audience. Most days I also write on my author page on Facebook so come follow me there for content-rich material. I truly enjoy helping folks from all over know the love affair that is always going on inside and outside with the Beloved. The connection and guidance from the Inner Divine begins to take the lead when it is sincerely invited….by anyone. The Universe is a Divine party. In this episode, Tosha shares: 1. How to create a personal relationship with the Divine. 2. Debunking popular “manifestation” theories. 3. Relating to religion and spirituality
History has demonstrated over and over again that humanity finds ways to utterly miss the punch line in God’s cosmic joke. But every now and then an author comes along who finds humor in the divine and in doing so unveils profound truths that are easily hidden under layers of fundamentalism. In this podcast, Tosha Silver reflects on her new book Outrageous Openness: Letting the Divine Take the Lead.
