The storyline of how we started in business is the tapestry of our success or failure in our companies. In this episode, Kimjera shares specific techniques & best practices on what companies can do to streamline content on their websites, social media, and in telling their companies story. We have a spirited conversation about Story Brand Marketing! Tune in to this episode with Kimjera & I. A Note From Kimjera... When it comes to leading your business, I know that you want to see it grow and thrive. In order for that to happen, you need more consumers to engage with your brand and buy from you. The problem is that people make buying decisions based on emotion and then back their decision up with logic. That's why if your business wants more sales you must create brand messaging that tells a story your customers can relate too. Successful brands know how to relate to their customer's problems, create consistent and clear brand messaging, and they let the story sell their product or service. Hey, I get it! Running a business is hard. If marketing is not your specialty, then building a brand that your customers relate to is even harder. I believe you deserve bragging rights when your business succeeds which is why I have taken my 20+ years of sales and digital marketing expertise to help business leaders just like you grow their business. Here is how I do it: ✦ Hire me to speak or give a workshop ✦ Learn how to build a relatable brand ✦ Watch your business succeed and thrive Take the next step and book me to speak at your company or event - Contact Luminary Leaders It's time to stop losing customers to your competitors and gain the FREEDOM you deserve when your business THRIVES.

Sexy Spirituality Episode #21 Fierce Vulnerability   Hosts Lezli Goodwin Kimjera Whittington Guest Host: Brian Akers   Opening Chat We chat about Thrive CSL, Kimjera's brand new community and how the first couple of Sunday Celebrations have gone.   Fierce Vulnerability Being a spiritual leader requires fierce vulnerability, especially when facing physical or mental health challenges. The New Thought teaching can encourage rugged individualism, which can be very lonely.  Instead, it is incumbent upon spiritual leaders to model authenticity and integrity, asking for support when we need it. This makes it okay for congregants and community members to do the same. Being able to acknowledge our strengths and weaknesses without fear of judgment is essential! There is still cultural residue in Science of Mind that we should be able to pray it away, especially ministers, but there is power in going through the human condition and sharing from the position of spiritual principle. You learn about your ministry in providing access to people to see who you are when you are in challenge, and inviting the spiritual work in your community. We don't rule out praying the condition away, but being free from discord doesn't mean being free from the environment. Healing isn't always physical cure -- Spirit is bigger than that. Being fierce about all of this means not caring about peoples' opinions about all of this. I don't care if you think being honest about my needs and experiences means I'm weak. I'm going to share it anyway, and model healthy, loving community support. Our teaching is less about eliminating every irregularity and more about being able to face whatever comes with a great deal of ease and grace.  So much of that requires reaching out for support and love when we need it.   Something Good     Kimjera CSL Thrive is offering a three-week class on Mondays, 6:30-8:00 PM PST, February 4, 11 & 18 via Zoom technology (available worldwide). Explore basic spiritual practices together as a commnity. $49.00 Find out more and register at www.thrivecsl.org    Brian I'm ready to relaunch the "It's Really Real" project, exploring what happens when a middle aged white guy really lives these principles and tries to build organic community.  Join the It's Really Real Facebook group. Soon, itsreallyreal.org will be relaunching.   Lezli This March, I'm releasing a new BOOK!  If you want to be a part of the Launch Team making this happen, you can join in the fun.

Sexy Spirituality Episode #17 The Revolution Resolution   Hosts Lezli Goodwin Kimjera Whittington Sonia Byrne   Opening Chat As we enter into New Year's Eve, Lezli, Kimjera and Sonia chat about their plans. Lezli and Kimjera are planning quiet nights at home snuggling poolside with family.  Sonia is looking forward to bundling up and heading to her terrace to watch the gorgeous St. John's fireworks.   The Resolution Revolution We've been practicing resolution setting for about 4,000 years, beginning with the Babylonians. That took place in spring, with the planting of the crops. In more recent history, John Wesley (founder of Methodism) encouraged annual covenant renewal services to bring in the New Year in an interactive way. Centers often have New Year's events.  Kimjera's Center, CSL Murietta Valley, is hosting an intention setting gathering. We can sometimes set ridiculous resolutions that don't stick because they are unrealistic and negative. Switching from resolutions to setting intentions helps us stay positive. Think about what you're inviting in rather than fixing something that's broken. It's easy and you are more likely to make a real change, in a natural and organic way. The Resolution Revolution is in using positive language. Deprivation sets our amygdala into high-jack mode. It creates stress and distress. Being positive and realistic helps us actually make real change. Making too many resolutions, or unrealistic resolutions, sets us up to feel like failures. Instead, think about what you want to have! Kimjera's word for the year is THRIVING! Sonia's word for the year is COLLABORATE! Lezli's Word(s) for the year are OWNING IT! Vision boarding can help you make your resolution real!   Something Good Sonia If you love Louise Hay like I love Louise Hay, join me for a Zoom book study on her classic book, "You Can Heal Your Life."  January 28, six-sessions for 90 minutes each. Find out more at www.soniabyrne.com   Kimjera Center for Spiritual Living Murietta Valley is offering a New Year's Day meditation and intention-setting session to start the year off right.

Sexy Spirituality Episode #16 Fostering Forgiveness   Hosts Lezli Goodwin Kimjera Whittington Sonia Byrne   Opening Chat Christmas decorating is in full swing, except at Sonia's house.  Buddy the cat tried to eat her tree, so it went back in the box after 36 seconds.  Lezli's cat is uninterested in her tree.  Kimjera's tree is protected from the dogs by a security gate. (Which, by the way, also protects her tree from Lezli who can't open the gate.)   Fostering Forgiveness During the holiday season, we tend to see a proliferation of movies that focus on the heartwarming aspects of coming together and forgiveness. Lezli offers the embarrassing fact that Love Actually is her favorite Christmas movie.  You can watch it and mock her HERE. How do we know if our upset is actually a sign of needing to forgive ourselves? If we are noticing the same problem or irritation coming up in multiple situations, maybe it's something we need to forgive in ourselves. Perhaps we need to consider the idea from Colin Tipping's Radical Forgiveness that there is a gift in whatever happened. Even though it was painful, it brought us to where we are today, and that's valuable.  Check out the book and bonus materials HERE. The more we feel we are owed an apology, the more likely that there is something we need to forgive ourselves.  That idea itself might be upsetting, but it rings true. Something Good Sonia We're kicking off another round of "Business & Branding: A SPiritual Entrepreneurship Program for Practitioner Success" on January 10.  Designed for Healing arts practitioners, coaches and spiritual practitioners, this interactive Zoom class will give you the tools to shine your light more brightly in the world, including pricing, talking about your offerings, creating marketing materials and more.  $379 (includes two 45 minute coaching sessions: a $300 value).

Sexy Spirituality podcast Episode 15: Spirituality and Diversity   Co-Hosts Lezli Goodwin Sonia Byrne Kimjera Whittington Special guest host: Tracy Brown      Check in: Kimjera has announced the creation of a brand new spiritual community, Center for Spiritual Living Murietta Valley!   Spirituality and Diversity:  Diversity is just God being God, showing up as the natural profusion of life. All of nature is diverse. It's a part of the Divine Design. Somehow, when we start talking about people, this gets all confused. Inclusion is just us making a commitment to walk our spiritual talk to love thy neighbor as myself. God is expressed in, through and as me.  The only way I can express that is through me. I need to be an expression of inner peace, where other people can express that, too. Indicators of a community is engaged in the inclusion process: valuing how different people show up, which may or may not have to do with race or ethnicity.  People don't always agree, but they work through it.  Realizing what you've learned from people from other places or cultures. God makes no mistakes. We're here in the likeness and image of our creator. How can a community leader move the dial on diversity and inclusion? Every community has diversity, but we don't always see it.  However, leaders can have blinders on about who is available and interested in being engaged.  Draw a 5 mile diameter circle around your community and look at the census -- who are you missing?  Tracy wants leaders to be asking the question of what are they doing to make sure people feel welcome and included. Is our purpose to have a Sunday morning service? Or is our purpose to offer education that helps people have a life of quality?

Sexy Spirituality podcast Episode 10: Who You Are is More than Enough   Co-Hosts Lezli Goodwin Kimjera Whittington   Kimjera: "Who You Are is More Than Enough" It's easy to get caught up in living day to day life and miss the necessity to "just be." Reading Ernest Holmes This Thing Called You, he talks about each person being an individualization of The One (God, Spirit).  We get confused and think we have to do more, but we are okay just as we are. When in doubt, go back to the basics.   Roundtable with Kimjera Whittington & Lezli Goodwin Recovering from mistaken beliefs that keep us in the doing vs the being, including Lezli's old belief that, "I am as valuable as I am useful."  Part of spiritual leadership is modeling and encouraging healthy boundaries, including saying no to things we would really like them to do. We have to live the message. True Self-worth comes from not getting caught up in either the highs or the lows, but trying to stay in the middle. Who you are, exactly as you are, is necessary in this world -- the evidence is that you wouldn't be here, wouldn't feel called to where you are in life.  So you can relax about whether you think you fit in or meet expectations.  The "just being" is where we feel wholeness, true safety and a deep sense of connection. We don't do that enough. Becoming better isn't about becoming anything.  It's about letting everything that is not like God fall away, revealing the truth of wholeness which has always been there.   Quote of the Episode "Every single one of us is a light for someone else, and just by being brave enough to be who we really are we give others the permission to do the same."  Lezli   Tell Us Something Good! Kimjera I am having a great time coaching people who are ready to create the career, the life they want.  If you are launching a new business, looking to improve your leadership skills or opening up to showing up in a new way, I would love to work with you.  You can find all the details at  www.kimjerawhittington.com    Lezli I am offering an online class to help you learn to "Transform Your Life with Affirmative Prayer."  You can take this video-based class at your own pace.  Just $49.00, and it comes with a free mini-ebook of 20 affirmative prayers.  Learn more and register at  www.lezligoodwin.com/onlineclasses    Show Info Thank you for tuning in to Sexy Spirituality!

Today’s message from Dr. Rev. Christian Sorensen was recorded October 28th, 2018 and it’s titled Paddling Out affirming I joyously embrace the adventures of my prospering life! Today we welcomed back the spirit, talent and voice of Angel Travis who can be found on Facebook here. Dr. Christian’s Corner In the first week of our Prosperity Series, we looked at the seas as a metaphor for the Infinite and all the treasures that lie waiting to be discovered. Last week we explored the importance of embracing change if you are looking for changes to occur in your life. This week I’m going to encourage you to “paddle out” to greet your adventure. Our adventures in prosperity are alive here at Seaside and I trust will bring wonderful treasures into your world. We heard testimonials from Dr. Christina and her 15 year journey with Spirit at her side and our hearts were moved by Tracey Plascenia's story of a mother’s love for her daughter through an incredible 2 year journey of healing. This week Rev. Kimjera has her powerful story to share with us. And a big shout out of congratulations to Rev. Kimjera who, just this past week, passed her oral exams and has become “officially” a licensed minister, so it’s with joy we “officially” welcome her to Seaside in that capacity. We’ll soon be seeing her photo on our ministerial wall. Come visit us at SeasideCenter.org or join us in Encinitas, California sometime where we always great music, a spirited message and a joyful, loving, vibrant community that await you.

Sexy Spirituality podcast Episode 8: A Message for Our Girls   Co-Hosts Lezli Goodwin Sonia Byrne Nicole Von Atzingen   Check In Nicole: I spent the last three days painting the center office. They don't teach that in ministerial school! Sonia: Lezli, Kimjera and I spent the last week in Denver at Centers for Spiritual Living home office, sitting for our final oral panels to become ministers. Lezli: We can sure give feedback on what could be added to the ministerial school curriculum -- apparently office painting, podcast 101...   Lezli: "A Message for Our Girls" There are so many messages being tossed at our girls and young women today. Messages about their appearance, how they should act, what they should value, what they can do. It's overwhelming. What I want our girls to hear is that there is so much more to them than what other people expect. You are spirit, you are soul, you are wisdom, you are intelligence, you are creativity. You can do or be anything.   Roundtable with Sonia Byrne & Nicole Von Atzingen The US political and cultural situation (with Me Too, Time's Up, etc.) is reflective of the international situation. The same issues are affecting women and girls all over the world. We want young women to know that they are expressions of the feminine divine, the goddess.  The reason we find ourselves oppressed across history is because we are so powerful. The female is the place of ultimate creativity -- of birth. This can be the creation of life, the creation of ideas, the creation of all kinds of goodness. Being raised in a teaching like New Thought offers girls and young women to be with their strength, their feelings, their vulnerability. What a difference it makes to be surrounded by these messages when you are young. Resilience studies suggest that the most important factor in how well a young person handles trauma is the presence of one adult who thinks they matter. That brings up the idea of mentors for young women.  Look for someone who has what you want, ask for guidance and listen.   Tell Us Something Good! Sonia I am facilitating a book study that starts tonight, focusing on Marianne Williamson's book "A Woman's Worth."  There is still time to join our 5 week study, meeting at 7:00 PM EST via Zoom technology. You can register at www.soniabyrne.com    Nicole If you are in the Southern California area, you are invited to visit Seal Beach Center for Spiritual Living.  We are a spiritually progressive community that accepts everyone.  Our Sunday services are at 9:00 and 11:00 AM.

Sexy Spirituality podcast Episode 7: Creating Abundance   Co-Hosts Lezli Goodwin Kimjera Whittington   Check In Lezli: It's October, deep into fall, and I'm enjoying "Pumpkin Floof," my indescribable weird autumn treat. It takes the place of pumpkin spice latte for me. Kimjera: I love pumpkin space latte! My favorite fall treat is a pumpkin crumb cake that my family loves.   Kimjera: "Creating Abundance" Abundance is one of those awesome things that everyone has access to. It's our birthright. It's a universal principle. The universe is naturally abundant, from grains of sand to blades of grass The universe is impersonal and impartial. Abundance is not just financial. A lot of us want an abundance of peace, of love, of joy.   Roundtable with Kimjera Whittington & Lezli Goodwin The nature of the universe is unlimited, continually bringing forth more of itself. One creative idea can spark an entire industry, and create abundance and jobs for thousands of people. It's not just about more stuff, but having more love and kindness -- that really feels empowering. Surrendering things because "it's just stuff" can also open us up to be okay with wanting and getting stuff, too.  It's just energy. We can invite it in if it serves us if it serves our values. We can't give what we don't have, and financial flow can serve that. We receive according to our beliefs and acceptance. Giving opens up to the channels of how the universe creates more. Someone else getting something or accomplish something does not take away from what I can have.  We need to celebrate the successes of others as much as we celebrate our own. If I can see it, I can have it! The Optimist Creed, Christian Larson    Quote of the Episode "When you're in that creative mode with the universe, and again you're in alignment with the energy, then you're in the flow of that.  And it's exciting, right?"  Kimjera   Tell Us Something Good!

Sexy Spirituality podcast Episode 2: Speaking to Your Ego: Friend or Foe? Sonia Byrne The term ego comes from the work of pioneering psychologist Sigmund Freud.  The ego was considered a mediator between the id (pure desire) and the super-ego (the moral part of the self).  When we speak in common language about ego, we're more likely to be speaking of someone who is boastful or conceited.   The ego gets a bad rap for two reasons.  First, it's used to put people down.  It can be used in a judgmental way, as in, "He's being egotistcal." Secondly, we're being egotistical when we talk about ourselves a lot, creating an unbalanced conversation.  The ego can be our friend, because it is the place of recognizing and celebrating the great things about ourselves.   Roundtable with Lezli Goodwin & Kimjera Whittington It can be interesting trying to strike a balance between knowing and claiming our worth but not sliding into the part of the ego that is fear-based.  It can create a sense of shame when we feel like we shouldn't get too big for our britches, and that can force us into going to one extreme or the other: total humility or egotistical. It's all about perspective!  We can lean into the strength of the ego to help us be brave enough to step into new things (like putting this podcast out!) as opposed to using the ego to shield ourselves from something we are afraid is wrong with us, to pretend to be something that we're not or to put down others so we can feel bigger. We need to have a value check-in, because we know when we are using that ego to diminish someone else to make ourselves feel better.  It's not pretty, but it's real! Ego challenges can show up when we are taking on new roles, like stepping away from a job to be a stay-at-home mom or starting a new business.  It can be bruising when we don't always feel like we're doing a great job. It's helpful to be conscious and question why we are feeling how we are feeling.  Are we reacting to a wounded ego? Just knowing what's going on can save us so much heartache. Fear of the ego can keep us from celebrating our accomplishments, like promotions at work, because we don't want to seem boastful or egotistical.  But it's important to celebrate our successes as well as those of others. We hold ourselves back and play small, but it doesn't serve us or the people around us. As women, it's an extra challenge to develop those leadership skills and willingness to own our worth without tipping over to the place where we are judging or diminishing others. An essential piece of this is allowing people, even our children, to define success for themselves.  It's a protection against that need to tip into the negative part of ego and helps us to keep it postive.    Quote of the Episode "We play small in order to help people not feel small, but the truth is if we life ourselves up and we act in our wholeness and in our perfection of who we are -- even in the workplace -- then what we actually create is an opportunity for other people to then do the same in their lives."  Kimjera   Tell Us Something Good!

Sexy Spirituality podcast Episode 1: What is Sexy Spirituality? Lezli Goodwin Sexy spirituality is about blending spirituality with every part of life, even the messy stuff, to create an integrated life. Sexy stuff is the interesting stuff that people want to talk about, and spirituality IS interesting! Kimjera Whittington Sexy spirituality is about gaining confidence. Confidence is sexy and powerful, and too many of us lack it. It's about claiming that inner badass within. When we're in touch with it, we show up in our business and life authentically and powerfully. Sonia Byrne Sexy spirituality shows up in the workplace as "mindfulness", "conscious leadership", "compassionate communication" and "collaborative communication." People aren't always overt about their workplace spirituality, but it is there more and more. The definition of sexy includes the words desirable, exciting and appealing.  There is a growing desire for business and leadership to come from this place of confidence and consciousness. Roundtable What can somebody do when they feel that their job is requiring them to behave in a way that feels less than spiritual?  Spend some time in self-awareness activities like meditation, counseling or with a coach.  Figure out what your highest values are, and then strategize how to bring those authentic qualities into your work role.  When deeper issues or limiting beliefs come up, they can then be addressed. We come into work (and every environment) with hidden beliefs from when we were children, and can find ourselves recreating roles that leave us feeling small or fearful. People in the workplace are bringing in addiction, grief, family challenges and other difficulties that color how they show up.  Part of sexy spirituality in the workplace is creating a space where people can be their authentic selves even at work. It's important to redefine success to mean excelling in the areas and qualities YOU think are important, not what everyone else thinks matters. Choosing compassion when encountering people who are struggling, whether they share their struggle or not, is a huge part of integrated spirituality. When we center into our spiritual values throughout the day, we are able to be Love wherever we are and whatever we are doing. Tell Us Something Good!
