Podcasts about ignite your soul summit

This week, we're exploring courage. We're also talking about giving yourself the permission to safely speak your truth and share your story, and what this can mean for your life and the lives of others. For this episode, I am honored to be joined by the incredible Amber Lilyestrom. Amber is a transformational branding strategist and business coach, author, and speaker. She has been featured by Forbes, Entrepreneur, and Working Mother Magazine. She is the host of The Amber Lilyestrom Show podcast, which has over 100,000 monthly downloads. She is also the creator of the Ignite Your Soul Summit, an annual live event in Portsmouth, NH. Amber's mission is to empower women to position themselves as sought-after experts and thought leaders through the creation of an online brand presence. Her transformational mindset work sets her apart in an industry focused on a strategy-first, inner work later approach.  We start our conversation by looking back on Amber's childhood and her formative experience of finding the courage to use her voice at a very young age. At only five years old, Amber was the victim of sexual abuse, and with the support and advocacy of her parents, she was able to appear before a grand jury and use her voice to stand up for herself.  Amber knows that this transformative experience of finding the courage to speak her truth allowed her to find herself much sooner than most people. Now as an adult, she still is able to rely on this courage and ability to use her own voice through the struggles life presents.

In this episode, we jump right into purpose. Purpose is your reason for creating or doing something. Also, purpose can mean the reason you exist. Not having a purpose or denying yourself of your purpose can really rob you of joy. When you do not align with your purpose, when you're not on the right path, you feel frustrated and create destructive habits that result in a lack of fulfillment and joy. It's critical to know your truth and be intimately connected with yourself. That way, you can communicate and speak that truth however it manifests for you. Later, Amber reveals what to do when you are growing faster than your partner. Most women are focused on their personal development and growth. Plus, their level of consciousness is at a place where they understand the need to really commit to that work. Sometimes, this can be frustrating when you are growing faster than the one that you love. It will be critical to get to a place where you can recognize that you and your partner are different people. Luckily, Amber gives loads of tips on exactly how to do the inner work. Tune in as we chat about the importance of acknowledging your dreams in order to create deep changes.  In this Episode: [ 1:45 ] All about Amber   [ 5:20 ] The foundation of your purpose [ 8:20 ] Finding alignment into your meaning [ 14:20 ] What to do when you’re growing faster than your partner [ 21:20 ] Every situation is an opportunity to have a mirror moment [ 32:30 ] It’s time to acknowledge your dreams   Joy Filling Quotes:  “I believe that every single person on this planet has a purpose.” “We all have a collective purpose to feel joy.” “The meaning of life is to be in joy.” “If the dream is in you, it's for you.” “Give yourself permission to dream.” Resources: Amber’s Website: https://www.amberlilyestrom.com/ Amber on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amberlilyestrom/ Amber on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BrandLoveCoach Free Affirmation Downloads: https://rebelsforjoy.com/hip-hop Free Forgiveness Quick Start Formula : CLICK HERE Free Boundaries Quick Start Formula: CLICK HERE IG: www.instagram.com/rebelsforjoy IG Personal: @Bonniekelly.me Facebook Group www.facebook.com/groups/rebelsforjoy YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/rebelsforjoy

When a connection feels the best, it’s where we put down our shields, our fears, and our worries about being judged. Then, we can allow ourselves to be vulnerable. Amber had to learn how to use her voice and find courage from deep within to become vulnerable. Then, Amber explains how we can teach our children to be vulnerable in a safe environment. It’s all about being a role model for our children and showing them what vulnerability looks like. Later, we jump into the importance of loving the connection between our body and mind. Amber reveals the details behind her eating disorder and what it took to love her body and her mind again. Tune in as we go in-depth about finding a more feminine experience with our bodies, why freedom is a choice that we all have, and how Covid is the perfect excuse to change our circumstances.

In light of the current social justice movement + Revolution for the liberation of Black American's, I have decided to re-release some of the most impactful and enlightening conversations I have had on the podcast with Black women and men.    These are conversations that have educated and inspired listeners over the years, and my hope is that now that an even brighter light is being shone upon the issues covered in these conversations- they will continue to deepen our understanding of the current tasks at hand.    As many of you know, Jeanine Staples is a force to be reckoned with, and a woman I have called a friend and teacher for years. She was one our most talked about 2019 Ignite Your Soul Summit speakers, and the work she is doing in the world is unparalleled. We had this conversation back in 2017, and white supremacy and white privilege were two of the many topics we covered back then, making this a really powerful discussion to bring back into the light today. Jeanine stunned the world (and me) with her TED Talk, “How To Die Peacefully”, when she challenged the notion that humans are born, they live and then they die. No- Jeanine believes we are born and then we die a thousand tiny deaths. She claims, we can only learn to live, when we learn to die those deaths peacefully. … and this is just what I learned before our conversation. Dr. Jeanine Staples is the Associate Professor of Literacy and Language, African American Studies, and Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Penn State University. She is the founder of “The Supreme Love Project” , a movement which seeks to embolden marginalized people to heal their souls and liberate themselves. Not to mention, she is a genius, a soul excavator, a humanist and an all around “Be Your OWN Hero”, kind of Wonder Woman. I am beyond thrilled and honored to share this conversation with you. I just know that these words will touch you in a way that could literally shift the way you live your life, today- if you let them. So, grab a notebook for this one, sit down, and get ready to let it all sink in to your soma (how Jeanine refers to our bodies) and your souls. I hope you find this conversation as powerful as I do.  In This Episode You Will Learn: How our to heal our soul terrors and begin our own Personal Liberation Project Why seeking external affirmation can only lead to suffering What it means to “Go Deeper” The truth about our conditioned fear of experiencing pain How to teach our children to understand their body and their pain How your unconscious beliefs about money hold you back from being free What it means to own your womanhood What your “lover identity” is How to begin to stand up for social injustices and become a voice for for the voiceless Soul Shifting Quotes:  “My generation of terror was so complete and so huge, I didn't have that ability to bide my time and create a status quo. I had to break.” “I was at what I thought was my bottom. And the voice of God, the Holy Spirit said… “Go deeper.” “There's so many of us who run from pain. It's suffering that we need to cease, not pain. Suffering is this long term uninterrupted source of despair without hope. That's what we need to move away from. But pain, pain is actually what we need to generate bigger emotional muscle. To grow the capacity to go deeper.” “Let your child get attuned to their body. Because their bodies are instruments for their emotionality.” “Our salvation and our liberation project would not exist, unless there was something we were in bondage to. And that bondage is your pain. Best to become really enamored with it.” “You can only be satiated from the inside out.” “Do I feel real? Or do I feel like I am wearing labels and descriptions that had been given to me.” “I had to really do the work of saying, I am not the woman I want to be. I am not the woman I say I am. And I want to be congruent. I want to BE that person, and not perform that person. “Your interior life is the precedent to any other exterior attachment or endeavor that you want to take part of.”   Links Mentioned:  Links Mentioned:    Learn my 7 Secrets to Uplevel Your Brand & Land Your Dream Clients    Grab your FREE training, How to Call in Your Tribe + Create Content that Converts  Text me at 603-931-4386 Learn more about Jeanine by following her on Instagram: @jeaninestaples Learn more about Jeanine's offerings at jeaninestaples.com   Tag me in your big shifts + takeaways: @amberlilyestrom Did you hear something you loved here today?!

Have you ever found yourself worrying so much about the outcome that you can't just enjoy the journey?  In this week's Focus Friday I'm looking back at this time last year when I was right in the middle of my home expansion project- one that felt way harder than I ever anticipated it would.  A year later, I've had some massive realizations about the patterning and programming that often leaves us feeling anxious and worried, and the ways in which we can reframe and let go of the worry- so we can lean into and be present with the joy.    In This Episode You'll Learn: A little Black Friday teaser about the Ignite Your Soul Summit [ 2:27 ] How easily do we give away our joy? [ 3:51 ]  The outdated pattern that needs to be changed [ 7:10 ] What actually causes our greatest suffering [ 12:20 ]  What happens when we look back on our lives [ 13:25 ]   Soul Shifting Quotes: “All of the things we've ever worried about have always worked out.”  “Our biggest challenges are not actually the problem. What is causing our suffering is our patterning.”  “It is always working out for me.”  “What if we lived into the solution, rather than living in the problem?”  “Our physical experience is a reflection of our inner condition.”   Links Mentioned: Learn my 7 Secrets to Uplevel Your Brand & Land Your Dream Clients  Grab your FREE training, How to Call in Your Tribe + Create Content that Converts Tag me in your big shifts + takeaways: @amberlilyestrom Did you hear something you loved here today?!

    On a scale of 1-10, how possible do you believe it is for you to achieve your goals? In this week's Focus Friday, a few weeks since the 2019 Ignite Your Soul Summit and I've made some massive realizations. The way we describe our goals (big, small, unrealistic, etc)  will dictate how we reach them. By describing our goals as BIG, we are subconsciously not allowing ourselves to move closer to the possibility of their existence. In this episode, I share with you what I've realized instead- so we can all change the way we view our dreams and start breathing them in to life. In This Episode You'll Learn: Why it's important to recalibrating + decompressing after significant events [ 2:40 ] What it means to trust ourselves [ 3:20 ] How we're creating resistance by wrapping our goals [ 6:00 ] How to build our beliefs to take inspired action [ 08:10 ] Soul Shifting Quotes: “Desire + belief = action.” “We cannot BS ourselves.” “We can do anything; it requires action that is taken from a place of alignment.” Links Mentioned: Learn my 7 Secrets to Uplevel Your Brand & Land Your Dream Clients Book your Breakthrough Call Today!

One of the biggest areas that holds entrepreneurs back is that we’ll do or say something in our business that will make someone not like us. For heart-centered biz owners who come from a place of service and love, it can feel difficult to share a new program or product based on our deepest message. We’re afraid that we’ll be judged all over Instagram - or worse, that no one will buy our program. In this episode, we talk about why we can’t take other people’s reactions personally or we’ll stay small - and how to show up fully, even when we’re afraid. In this episode Lisa shares:  Why someone else’s response has nothing to do with you Why you are never responsible for the thoughts, beliefs, or actions of someone else (no matter what anyone tries to tell you) How letting go of feeling responsible for other people’s reactions can be life-changing Why your tribe can’t find you if you don’t speak up Why you can speak with humility and grace… without making anyone else “wrong” Resources:Easy Legal Steps - download the first book chapter free!

In today’s episode, Darcy welcomes Amber Lilyestrom, a transformational branding strategist, business coach, author, and speaker to share her shocking near-death experience giving birth and how it ignited a new life path towards spiritual wellness, realizing her life’s mission, and breaking free of a limiting mindset. After the birth of her daughter, Amber quit her demanding career in collegiate athletics and started her own coaching business which she quickly grew to $1.5 million in sales. Amber is the creator of the Ignite Your Soul Summit annual live event in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and is the host of The Amber Lilyestrom Show podcast. Amber's mission is to empower women to position themselves as sought-after experts and thought leaders through the creation of an online brand presence and to actively seek a life full of abundance and gratitude.

    In today's Focus Friday, I'm reminding us all (myself included) that we are more than worthy of support from our friends, families, and supporters. When we dare to ask for it, it's impossible for our lives to remain stagnant… because when we do, a new Universe is opened up to us. We know what we need to do + we understand what it is going to take. If the answer is no, it does not have to mean we are unworthy... it is simply just the next step on the path. My hope is that this episode will serve as the nudge you need to find the courage to ask for whatever you've been waiting on. In This Episode: Feeling unworthy of support  [ 1:15 ] Have the courage to ask  [ 4:15 ] Asking Mark Nepo to be on the podcast  [ 6:40 ] Everyone is just a person working on their deepest emotions  [ 9:10 ] Soul Shifting Quotes: “Getting ready to be ready. Who is the one who decides when you are ready?” “99% of the conversations that have been on this podcast would not have occurred had someone not had the courage to ask.” “Be unattached to the outcome. Remain unattached to the person's answer.” Links Mentioned: Grab your FREE training, How to Call in Your Tribe + Create Content that Converts Listen to my soul-chat with Mark Nepo Purchase your ticket to the Ignite Your Soul Summit, and bring a friend for FREE!

    Before I took the stage 2 years ago at the Ignite Your Soul Summit, I was faced with a choice. One that swung between an old way of living that had gotten me that far, and a drastically new (and I'll admit scary) way of being that was completely unknown. The choice I made has become an absolute game changer in every aspect of my world,  and it has shown me, what I believe is, the #1 strategy to exponentially expanding not only my business- but most importantly, my life.   This week's Focus Friday is an invitation to you try something radically different in your own life + biz, and then to sit back and watch the magic that happens next. In this episode: The #1 strategy in growing my life that's simultaneously helped me grow my business     [ 1:35 ] The stories I told myself about my own success- and the realization that helped me rewrite them [ 3:43 ] How to open yourself and your world up to the gifts of others [ 8:07 ] What inviting others into my world has done for my life + biz [ 9:42 ] Soul Shifting Quotes: “There is no business without a life.” “Our businesses will not grow without relationships.” “I decided that I was going to stop trying to do this thing by myself, and I was going to open my heart, my hands and my world to share it with others… and what a gift it has been.” “Let's start treating relationships like we treat currency, let's start treating relationships like the gems that they are- because people are the most valuable aspect of our lives.” Links Mentioned: Join the Why Warrior Tribe today!

Have you ever found yourself craving more expression in your life, business and relationships? You're not alone, soul sister.  The feeling of pure and unfiltered joy is ALWAYS looking to express itself through your body.

I learned so much last weekend in LA with Lewis and his crew at the Greatness Mastermind retreat, but the biggest realization came from reflecting on what it took to get me there. It wasn't money. It wasn't time. It wasn't having someone to look after my little one. It was the courage to get on the plane, itself. I know you know what I'm talking about. The showing up is always the hardest part. That first moment when we walk in to the room of rock stars. That physical CLAIMING of our dreams that takes place when we tell the people we love we're diving in head first. When we DO show up, when we get on the plane,  buy the ticket....signup- for our dreams...our lives are dramatically changed. When we say YES to the invitation to up level our experience here… magic always happens. In this Focus Friday episode on the podcast, I talk about the 5 reasons why getting on the plane will make a massive impact in your life and in your business in some surprising ways you may not expect, and why taking the long walk down that jet bridge could be the most game-changing walk you ever take. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: An invitation to get on the plane in your own life [:46] What it means to “get on the plane” [ 3:16 ] Why getting on the plane helps you dream bigger [ 8:25 ] How we grow our tribe by surrounding ourselves with other [ 11:02 ] How showing up refocuses you on what leads to results [ 13:40 ] How consistency is the way [ 15:23 ] How getting on the plane helps you become the person you need to be to get to the next level     [ 18:51 ] SOUL SHIFTING QUOTES: “We are being called to give birth to something bigger and we are being called to trust and have faith in that process.” “The only way that anything is ever going to happen is if we have the courage to actually dream it.” “Being in the room with people like the folks at this Mastermind experience, we realize that we're no longer separate. We're more alike than we are different.” “Get on the plane. Sign up. Say YES. Step up to your own greatness.. You couldn't possibly know what waits for you on the other side of your fear.” LINKS MENTIONED: Purchase your tickets to the Ignite Your Soul Summit here!
