Today's conversation is with Marcel Kuhn, a Swiss visionary, speaker, author, coach, father, dreamer, and surfer, who passionately explores the edges of his comfort zone. Marcel is a beautiful soul who has studied what it actually takes to find flow and empowerment. Hint: it is not in your head.    Marcel shares about his quest for success and findings after interviewing and asking 1,000 of the most accomplished athletes and top leaders in the world about their definition of success. This answer might surprise you.    Words of Wisdom:   Do what's aligned with your passion and mission, step out of your comfort zone, and lose your mind to follow your heart. Surrender is not about giving up; it's about giving in to a greater divine force and plan. Opportunities are like the waves – you've got to be patient, catch the right timing, and be willing to make a quick decision based on your heart.  Choose FLOW – Finding Love and Oneness Within. Instead of efforting, tap into the natural energy of flow. Overthinking keeps you from being in flow with your higher guidance and life. Being your ‘You-est You' means letting go of all your conditioning to shed layers that are not you, so like DaVinci who carved David, you release and chip away all that isn't you so that the true you can shine.   Marcel learned that the common ingredient in all of the interviews was not based on striving, achieving, or pushing; rather, it was based on doing the unthinkable. Meaning, stop thinking through decisions and follow the wisdom of your heart. Marcel shared how surfing has become one of his greatest teachers and how to find surrender, peace, and flow in your life.   Meet Marcel Kuhn   Marcel Kuhn is a Swiss visionary speaker, author, coach, father, dreamer, and soul surfer who passionately explores the edges of his comfort zone and what it means to create an unthinkable reality through FLOW: Finding Love and Oneness Within. Marcel, the author of UNTHINKABLE, has spent over a decade immersed in personal development, traveling globally to work with top experts, from coaches, speakers, and trainers to spiritual healers and shamans. Through his impeccable storytelling, discoveries, and practices, Marcel guides and inspires others to connect with their dreams and do the unthinkable while creating joy and fulfillment along the way.   You-est You Resources & Goodies   See below for all kinds of free tools, resources, programs and goodies to help you become your YOU-EST YOU!   A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life   This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Welcome, my friend, to another empowering episode of 'The You-est You'! Today, we're diving deep into the realms of authenticity, empowerment, and self-love with the incredible Ali Wear, a renowned yoga teacher. Ali shares her wisdom on recognizing the signs of new opportunities, fostering a supportive community of women, and embracing self-love just as we are.   Episode Highlights: The doors that open with ease and flow point to a greater purpose. You could look at it as God opening doors for you. Learn to do everything, all aspects of life, with compassion and gentleness. Healing takes place in the pause when we allow ourselves to be. Trauma makes us believe we're better off alone. In truth, connection is crucial for all living beings.  The deeper reminder behind the meaning of yoga is that there is no separateness in your heart, mind, and soul. We are all one. Embrace your life as a spiritual journey; yoga can help you do this as it is a spiritual discipline.  Even in our fast-paced, tech-heavy society, you can rewire your brain and bring presence to your body, awareness, and breath    Ali reminds us to start now, be the light, and see others for their divinity. We are creating the next era of women's support based on support, encouragement, empowerment, and loving-kindness.    Thank you for joining us on this inspiring journey of self-discovery and empowerment. As we conclude this soul-enriching conversation with Ali Wear, remember that every breath you take is an opportunity to connect with your true self and others. Embrace abundance, empower women around you, and contribute positively to the world. And remember to keep your heart open to the signs that life sends your way and practice self-love daily.    Stay connected with us on social media, and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review 'The You-est You' podcast on your favorite platform.    Until next time, embrace your truest self and shine brightly!   Meet Ali Ali Wear is a yoga teacher, wife, and mama of 3 amazing, joyful, and loved-filled kids living in Annapolis, Maryland. She has lived many lives - from being an award-winning bridal hair stylist and makeup artist, a licensed hypnobirthing coach, a singer and songwriter, and even did a short stint as a portrait artist. Ali is an obsessive soul searcher: practicing yoga, journaling, or reading the latest research on topics from childhood trauma, neurobiology, family, and wellness. You can find her teaching yoga several times a week at Lifetime Columbia in Maryland, where she loves to inspire students to take a moment to simply BE and often gets to share what she is learning and how to heal and practice with a somatic focus and trauma informed place.   A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life   This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Do you struggle with money issues? Do you feel like you never have enough or that you don't deserve to be wealthy? Do you want to learn how to transform your relationship with money and attract more abundance?   If you answered yes to any of these questions, this episode is for you. In this episode of The You-est You podcast, I talk about the spiritual principle of love and how it can help you overcome your money problems.   And guess what, it's not a money problem!   You see, your money problems are not really about money. They are about love or a lack of love. They reflect your beliefs, thoughts, and feelings about yourself, others, and the world. They manifest your scarcity mindset, which is based on fear and separation.   But there is another way to look at money and abundance. A way that is based on love and connection. A way that is aligned with the truth of who you are and what you are capable of. A way inspired by A Course in Miracles, a self-study spiritual program that teaches us how to shift our perception from fear to love.   In this episode, you will learn: How to identify and change your limiting beliefs about money and abundance How to use the power of gratitude, forgiveness, and generosity to heal your money wounds How to tap into the infinite source of abundance that is within you and all around you How to create a positive and prosperous mindset that attracts more opportunities and resources into your life How to use miracles as expressions of love that transform your reality   This episode will also help you understand that money is not a problem, but a solution. Money is not an obstacle, but an opportunity. Money is not a curse, but a blessing. Money is not something you lack, but something you have.   You have the power to change your relationship with money and abundance by changing your relationship with yourself and with love. You have the power to create miracles in your life by choosing love over fear.   Get ready to experience the miracle of abundance and, ultimately, the expression of love.   Meet Julie   Join Julie Reisler, master life coach, founder of the Life Designer® Coach Academy, author of Get a PhD in YOU, and host of the You-est You™ podcast to hear from thought leaders, spiritual luminaries, best-selling authors, and lightworkers.

What Really Happens When We Die?   Julie has helped thousands of people (and their supporting families) to transition with peace, calm, and even joy. She shared about the 12 Phases of Transition, which include twelve specific steps with guiding angels, loved ones, and even pets on the other side who show up to help cross over. The thing that most of us misunderstand is that this transition is absolutely glorious, as Julie put it, and everyone goes to Heaven. Julie has a free copy of her 12 Phases on her website, which you can download for free.     Some of the key points from our conversation: Everyone can connect with spirit. We all have come in this lifetime to create. We're meant to create and live a life of joy and adventure. There are no mistakes; all are learning. The transition experience is full of love, support, loved ones, and guiding angels who usher you to Heaven. The maternal aspect of spirit runs the show.   Meet Julie Ryan   Psychic Medium and Medical Intuitive Julie Ryan can sense what medical conditions and illnesses a person has and facilitate energetic healings.

I got to sit down with one of my favorite teachers of A Course In Miracles (ACIM for short) and talk all about her 46 years of applying these teachings in her life and that of countless others.    Hold on to your seat, my friend, as this conversation will take you for a spiritual ride that I hope helps you to release guilt, forgive everyone (including yourself), and manifest miracles.   What is ACIM? It's a retraining process in reorienting how we approach everything. We're brought up to think we're separate (we're not) and that the material world is as it is. The material world is not material; it's formed based on our thoughts. The physical world mirrors our inner world, a picture of our general state of mind. Your world and relationships are a 360-degree mirror. ACIM is an unlearning device to help undo faulty thoughts and become more loving, generous, kind, and compassionate.   Words of Wisdom: You are in charge of your life. We don't want to defend ourselves, contrary to what we think or how we were raised. Our inherent presence remains innocent no matter what. What I see in others, I fear in myself. Everyone's doing the best they can. We focus obsessively on the past and present, but the truth is that there is only now to be helpful, of service, and loving. Every second is brand new, clear, and clean. Forgiveness is the key; it's not about pardoning someone. It's letting go of our guilt and grievances. Guilt invites disaster. Do not make your emotions the enemy. We've been taught that our emotional nature is a stepchild to be banished. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Learn to befriend all of your feelings.  You are never a victim of anything outside of you. Your perspective is always in your hands.    Carol Howe is an internationally recognized master teacher of A Course in Miracles and an acclaimed author with over 45 years of experience teaching, speaking, and counseling in the psycho-spiritual field. A close personal friend of co-scribe Dr. Bill Thetford, she authored an intimate biography of his life entitled Never Forget To Laugh. In addition, she has created online programs based on Course principles as well as hundreds of audio and videos. All of these products are designed to clarify ACIM principles and offer guidance and reassurance in all areas of daily living.

Welcome to The You-est You™ podcast, where we explore the depths of human potential and the power of spirituality. In today's episode, we have the privilege of delving into the realms of consciousness, divinity, and the unlimited possibilities that lie within each of us. Today's guest is my mentor and dear friend, Gregg Braden, a pioneer in bridging the worlds of science and spirituality. Gregg's work has illuminated the path to unlocking our true potential and reconnecting with our innate divinity, transcending perceived human limits.   Episode Highlights:   *Defining Divinity Beyond Religion: Gregg Braden reminds us that divinity transcends the boundaries of religion. It's not about dogma; it's about recognizing the sacred essence within ourselves. When we tap into our divinity, we access a wellspring of power and potentiality often shrouded by fear and doubt.   *Consciousness as the Fertile Ground: Gregg explores the idea that consciousness is the fertile field in which our reality takes root. By nurturing our consciousness, we unlock the gateway to our divine potential. This is where our imagination, creativity, and intuition flourish.   *The World Speaking to Us: Are we truly listening to the world around us? Gregg highlights the convergence of science and consciousness, revealing how they are coming together in profound ways. This convergence invites us to pay closer attention to the subtle messages and interconnectedness of our world.   *A Time of Transformation: We're living in a time of unprecedented change, marked by social upheaval, climate challenges, and conflicts. Gregg emphasizes that this is not "business as usual." It's a pivotal moment where everything is being uprooted, presenting an opportunity for positive transformation.   *The Power of Beauty: Beauty holds a unique power—it creates coherence. Gregg reminds us that we are highly advanced soft technology, and we have the ability to self-regulate through our thoughts, breath, and emotions. Striving to see beauty in all things can be a powerful catalyst for positive change.   In this enlightening conversation with Gregg Braden, we've explored the concept of divinity as a universal essence that transcends religious boundaries. By tapping into our divinity and nurturing our consciousness, we unlock our potential for creativity, intuition, and transformation. We're reminded that the world is speaking to us, urging us to pay attention and embrace positive change in these times of extremes. As we strive to see beauty in all things, we harness the power to create coherence in our lives and in the world around us.   Thank you for joining us on this journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening. If you found this episode inspiring, please share it with someone who might benefit from these profound insights. And as always, stay tuned for more enlightening conversations on The You-est You™ podcast!   More about Gregg Braden:   Gregg Braden is a five-time New York Times best-selling author, scientist, and international educator and is renowned as a pioneer in the emerging paradigm based on science, social policy, and human potential.

Have you ever wondered if you'll ever find your soul mate? Do you pray that there's someone out there for you who is not a narcissist? Do you desperately want to feel good in your skin and happy whether or not you're in a relationship? Are you looking to do something in your life that fills you up and makes you feel good?   If you are a yes to any of these questions, get ready to be inspired and uplifted as we delve into an incredibly inspiring journey that Dr. Kahkshan shares with authenticity, vulnerability, wit, and wisdom.    Join us in this captivating episode, where we uncover Dr. Kahkshan's triumphs, glean wisdom from her challenges, and embrace the transformative power of self-belief and coaching.   Meet Dr. Kahkshan Ali Please join me in welcoming Dr. Kahkshan Ali, a Dentist, certified Life Designer® Coach, High-Performance Coach, and loving mom to a beautiful 13-year-old. Dr. Kahkshan faced her fair share of challenges in having been married to two different narcissists, being divorced twice before the age of 30, finding the love of her life at 40, and having a rainbow baby at 44. After years of creating a successful dental practice, Dr. Kahkshan decided to take her personal growth experience and become a life coach to serve other women who struggle with worthiness, confidence, and greater empowerment.   How To Overcome Challenging Times  Dr. Kahkshan talked about the importance of doubling down on her faith and trust in God, looking for a growth opportunity, and what her part was in both failed marriages. It's easy to blame others or feel lost in times of distress, but what can turn a bad situation into a blessing is your perspective and willingness to go deeper. She learned through her personal growth journey working with coaches that perspective is everything.    Trust Your Intuition One of the gifts of learning to trust your intuition is being able to tell when a situation is good or bad for you. Your intuition is your direct communication to your higher self and that of the divine. Tuning into your inner wisdom and trusting your gut instincts can guide you to being your most authentic. Looking back, Dr. Kahkshan realized she had ignored her intuition and the ensuing red flags.    Intuition arises from our subconscious awareness, past experiences, and innate values. Make time for regular self-reflection rather than getting caught up in self-doubt or other people's expectations. Notice when you feel energized or uneasy about a choice—that's your intuition communicating what matters most to you. Start small by listening to your intuition around simpler decisions, building confidence in your innate wisdom over time. By checking in with your core self and daring to honor those intuitive nudges, you open the doorway to greater alignment, fulfillment, and empowerment in all facets of your life.   Why I Became A Life Coach Dr. Kahkshan realized how powerful and healing was in her life by working with a coach and focusing on her personal growth and development. She fell in love with the coaching process and realized that life was better in all areas through coaching. She became a High-Performance Coach and then, a few years later, discovered that she wanted to refine her coaching skills and learn how to tap into her intuition as a coach. She became certified in the Life Designer® Coach Academy, a certification for conscious coaches worldwide. Dr. Kahkshan discovered her calling (or second act) as a life coach to empower women to become their most authentic, fulfilled selves. She realized that women healing from traumatic relationships need support in learning how to find love within themselves.   It's been an honor watching Dr. Kahkshan step into her highest potential as she stands for women of all backgrounds, eager to heal, transform, and design their best lives.    If you're interested in learning more about Dr. Kahskhan and her coaching offerings, go to the Life Designer® Certified Coach Directory at: https://juliereisler.com/certifiedcoaches    If you're eager to take the leap to become a masterful holistic life coach, go to https://juliereisler.com/certification.    A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Pleasure, sisterhood, and investing, oh my! Calling all my sisters! You will love this empowering conversation all about moving past the fears, blocks, and doubts of real estate investing to a much more informed understanding of the ‘hows' and ‘whys' you have everything you need to get in the game. Kathy O'Neill, Crissy Freeman & Dr. Priti Chandran are powerful examples of what's possible in building wisdom and intergenerational wealth to leave a more extraordinary legacy.    Are you eager to do something that matters and feels good? Have you considered your next chapter, like helping people and getting a life coach certification? Wondering if you have what it takes to pivot and do something new or different?    There's a reason that the realm of coaching is on the rise. The art and skill of coaching one, when trained properly, can lead to inner transformation and positive life changes. In this episode, I sat down with a few of my Life Designer® coaches, who now use their gifts and skills to help various kinds of people get unstuck, unstoppable, and unleashed.    Each of these women is truly stepping into their best self and becoming their ‘You-est You' as a powerful coach on a mission to help others break free from self-doubt, lack of confidence, and worthiness.    If you want to explore becoming a certified holistic life coach, learn more about my certification at: juliereisler.com/certification.    Key Takeaways: It's important to realize we all have blind spots and to get support in removing them. Listening is a superpower you can develop.  You don't need to (and never will) have it all together to become a life coach. Coaching is really about helping others to see their greatness. The answers are within each of us; learn how to do this for yourself and others. You can stop the negative self-talk and stories and rewrite your next chapter.  It's never too late, and you're never too old to pivot careers. To serve others, you must be of service to yourself. Self-care is crucial if you want to give to others.   Meet the Panel of Life Designer® Coaches   Kathy O'Neill Kathy is a Life Designer® Transition Coach who supports clients with big life changes. With a master's degree in public health from Yale University, her first career focused on the administration of public and private healthcare systems. Her second and longest career started in Manhattan, where she began producing TV commercials, web video content, and short documentaries. Kathy's third career as a transition coach draws on aspects from her first two careers: the focus on serving others from her healthcare experience, and from her years as a producer, the deep listening skills required to discern what's important to her clients and setting up systems to bring to fruition what has been learned from that deep listening and the story behind the person.    Dr. Priti Chandran Dr. Priti Chandran is a former dentist turned Life Designer® coach. She helps stressed and overwhelmed individuals and their teams bring more calm and ease in all environments using mental fitness coaching as a tool. As a South Asian American, she's no stranger to sacrifice and persistence. After leaving a successful career as a dentist, Priti found clarity while lost in the fog of doubt and unworthiness with the help of her coaches. She thrives in creating community and facilitating safe spaces for individuals to learn, grow & transform.   Crissy Freeman Crissy is a certified Life Designer® Coach who empowers women to say yes to themselves and return to the driver's seat after divorce. Crissy specializes in helping women rediscover their truth and their passion so they can show up with confidence as they embark on a new journey and navigate life as co-parent and single moms. Crissy's coaching program supports and guides clients on their transformational journey from Mrs. to ME after divorce to create the life they truly want and deserve.   Learn more about Kathy, Priti, and Crissy in the Life Designer® Certified Coach Directory at: https://juliereisler.com/certifiedcoaches   A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Are you finding yourself about to start a new chapter in your life? Wondering if it's too late to start anew in midlife? Feeling like you might be ready to pivot in your career, relationship, health, or goals?   If you relate to any of these questions or are right in the middle of midlife, this episode is for you. I interviewed a wonderful former coaching client who is on a mission to help women in midlife rediscover their most important relationship, the one with themself, and how to attract their ideal partner.    Meet Laurie James Laurie James is a mother, divorcée, recovering caregiver turned author, relationship coach, and podcaster. Her debut memoir, Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting Go, is about family, marriage, parenting, being an adoptee, and caring for elderly parents, but most importantly, it's about her journey from feeling alone most of her life to finding belonging. Now, she helps women in midlife and beyond find the freedom to redesign their relationships and lives to experience more joy and happiness and make the most of their second or third act. Laurie is a mother of 4 adult daughters, a free spirit, and a lover of nature, skiing, and sailing.    Key Takeaways: Getting support is okay, especially when you are a coach, therapist, or healer. Pay attention to your inner nudges. They are here to guide you for a deeper reason. Don't dismiss them even when they seem illogical. You're worth the time, energy, and investment in getting the support or coaching you need to do your inner work and design your next act. When relationships or careers fall apart, it's important to lovingly turn the mirror on ourselves to understand our part better.   Make the most of your 3rd (or 4th) act! We all deserve peace, freedom, and happiness.    For more information on Laurie and her book, please visit www.laurieejames.com.   A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages) full of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Have you ever been to a therapist or a coach? Are you curious to know what the difference is? Did you know that although they are different modalities, there are more similarities than you might think?    In this episode, I brought back my dear friend and colleague, Molly Carmel, a psychotherapist and certified Life Designer® coach, to dive deep into a fascinating topic that often sparks curiosity and confusion: the difference between therapy and coaching. Join us as we unravel these two transformative paths toward personal growth and mental well-being.   Molly and I had such a real and raw conversation about authenticity, doing the inner work, the surprising power of coaching, and why she chose to go through the Life Designer® Coach certification program.    Meet Molly Carmel   Molly Carmel, LCSW-R is a leading addictions and eating disorder therapist and Founder of The Beacon Program (Beacon by MC), which offers individual and group solutions to help people break free from their destructive relationships with food and dieting. Known for her irreverent, “straight talk, no chaser” attitude, she's also the author of the innovative book Breaking Up with Sugar: A Plan to Divorce the Diets, Drop the Pounds, and Live Your Best Life and the host of the podcast, What You're Craving. Molly has made it her life's mission to help people find a sustainable solution to the battle of obesity and related eating disorders. After battling an eating disorder for over 20 years and finding no solution in available treatment, she began her professional path and has never looked back. In addition to her extensive training in Substance Use and Eating Disorders, Molly is intensively trained in and has an undying love for Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. She is also a certified Life Designer® Coach, trained shaman, Reiki healer, and certified Tibetan bowl singing practitioner.    How Does Coaching and Therapy Differ    First off, I like to say that coaching and therapy are like PB & J; they go beautifully together and are respectfully a distinct healing modality. While therapy and life coaching share some common aims, their approaches differ.    Both support self-insight and positive change. However, therapy focuses on addressing psychological challenges and trauma and diagnosing mental health issues. There is a greater focus on one's past and understanding, expressing, and healing past traumas and challenges.  Life coaching complements therapy by starting with the client's existing strengths and helping them set and achieve personal and professional goals for the future. There is a greater focus on the present and future, using the past to learn, grow, and harvest lessons. Coaches take a forward-moving, solutions-oriented, growth-oriented approach. The coaching relationship centers on accountable, empowered clients ready to create the life they want.    However, coaches recognize when clinical therapy is the right step. The two modalities can work powerfully together, with therapy helping people overcome obstacles from the past and coaching propelling them toward the life they aspire to create. Ultimately, both therapy and coaching are powerful tools for transformation.   Thinking of Becoming a Spiritual Life Coach?   Want to do something that fulfills a higher purpose? Eager to put your head on the pillow at night, feeling like you're doing good in the world? Do others naturally confide in you and share their deepest, dark secrets? If so, you need to check out the Life Designer® Coach Academy, a spiritual life coach certification that will give you the necessary tools, framework, proven practices, guidance, and experience to become masterful as a life coach.

Do you feel like you just can't meditate no matter what you do? Maybe you've been told you have a monkey mind that won't calm down. Or it feels impossible to sit still and be present with your breath and thoughts.    In this conversation with luminary Light Watkins, we talk all about how to find peace, calm, and serenity within your mind, and yes, through the proven power of meditation. Light shares a wealth of wisdom and teaching about how to change the way you view your mind, body and spirit, especially as it relates to meditation and finding true and lasting inner peace.   Meet Light Watkins Light Watkins is a long-time meditation teacher and thought leader who has spoken and consulted at Fortune 500 companies worldwide on wellness, purpose, and enlightened leadership. He is the author of three best-sellers: The Inner Gym, Bliss More, and Knowing Where to Look, as well as the soon-to-be-released Travel Light: Spiritual Minimalism to Live a More Fulfilled Life. Light has written a daily dose of inspirational emails to tens of thousands of subscribers.

Start by sitting comfortably and making friends with your thoughts. Think of your mind as an ally. Don't let your fear of other opinions stop you from becoming your authentic self, i.e., your ‘You-est You.' Investigating your internal emotional baggage is always the root cause of where, in doing more profound work, you'll find your inner zen, peace, and serenity To travel light, stop carrying around the past. The richest information about tomorrow is in today's moment.    A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Monick Halm Monick Halm is the founder of Real Estate Investor Goddesses. She is an educator and advocate for female real estate investors and has a mission to help 1 million women achieve financial freedom through real estate. Monick is herself a real estate investor and syndicator and owns, together with her investors, over 1000 rental doors across thirteen states.    She is a graduate of McGill University and Columbia Law School.  She is the #1 bestselling author of The Real Estate Investor Goddess Handbook and Invest Like a Goddess - Advice from the Most Successful Women in Real Estate, a TEDx speaker, podcast host, real estate strategy mentor, yogi, world traveler, recovered attorney, wife, and mother of three amazing kids.    Monick grew up with two parents from Haiti who emphasized the importance of getting a good education and becoming either a doctor, lawyer, or engineer. Monick chose to be a lawyer but soon realized that she did not like the profession and found it to be soul-sucking. It wasn't until she was let go while pregnant with her first child that she realized the blessing of being given the freedom to try her hand at real estate investing. This blessing in disguise gave her the ability to start her business which now educates millions of women on how to invest like a goddess.   Investing Like A Goddess Real Estate investing is not one size fits all. Monick shared a great metaphor to help you figure out your investment vision and how to reverse engineer it. She shared that if you were going on a vacation, you'd first figure out where you want to go. Do you want to travel abroad to the South of Frances (yes, please!), the pyramids in Egypt, the grand canyon, or perhaps a beach in Cape Cod? Like planning a vacation, you'll want to figure out your vision. For example, do you want enough passive income to retire from any job? Perhaps you want to be set for retirement and have a significant nest egg, or maybe you want to leave a fantastic legacy for your children's children's children. Clarify your vision first.   Next, you'll want to address what kind of trip you're taking. Are you going to be on a cruise, biking through the Alps, riding in an RV, flying first class, or perhaps hiking? Similarly, it's important to understand and choose the investing options that fit your greater vision, which might be investing in buildings, syndications, duplexes, single-family homes, etc.    Lastly, you need to know what resources you have available and how to leverage them. We talked about how having resources doesn't always mean money. It could be your time, your relationships, or even your experience    Why Women Fear Investing In the past, it was dangerous for women to own their power. It wasn't until 1974 that women could get their own loans without having a man accompany them. Often the fear stems from not being sure how to invest in real estate or where to begin. Monick wants you to know that this is something anyone can do, whether you grew up on food stamps or with a family who owned real estate. Check out her free training on her website to learn more and get started, and get her book, Invest Like a Goddess. It's time for us women to build our own wealth, stability, and financial security.    The Goddess Secret Sauce 1) Pleasure - The new reframe is ‘Pleasure through' vs. ‘Muscle through.' Don't try to muscle through anything. This hyper-masculine way of doing life will lead you to exhaustion. Pleasure does NOT mean comfort, though. Remember, there is no growth in a comfort zone or comfort in a growth zone. Prioritizing pleasure is revolutionary and often uncomfortable.    2) Intuition - this is your life GPS! Don't expect your intuition to be logical. It doesn't run on logic, and rather, it is your direct line to your Higher Power that will show you the path best for you. The goal here is to learn to trust your intuition fully.   3) Mindset - your fears and limiting beliefs will keep you stuck and held back from abundance if not addressed. Much of your success will come from healing and moving past worn-out stories and beliefs that are not true.    4) Sisterhood - women are biologically wired for community and sisterhood. We are not meant to do life (or investing) alone. Scientific research shows that women experience a release of oxytocin, the feel-good hormone, with intimacy, breastfeeding, and in the community. We learn better and get out of the stress state quicker in sisterhood.    The Abundant Path I love how Monick reminded us that we'll always have challenges and problems; it's part of how we learn and grow. The choice is whether you want rich life problems or poor life problems. Don't forget that you get to choose; her suggestion is to choose the abundant path!   If you are interested in investing but feel lost about where to start, check out Monick's fantastic free training (90-minute video training) at www.reigoddesses.com   A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Miriam Schulman Miriam Schulman is an artist and founder of The Inspiration Place, where she helps other artists learn how to profit from their passion or become better artists. She's helped thousands of artists around the world develop their skill sets and create more time and freedom to do what they love. Her art and story have been featured in major publications, including Forbes, The New York Times, Art of Man, Art Journaling magazine, What Women Create, as well as featured on NBC's “Parenthood” and the Amazon series “Hunters” with Al Pacino. Schulman's book Artpreneur came out earlier this year. The Inspiration Place podcast is in the top 1% of all podcasts and is listened to in over 100 countries.   Stop Abandoning Your Inner Artist It's time to stop abandoning your inner creativity. We all have a creative side to our souls. Art matters to the world, especially during and after times of collective crisis. Art gives meaning to life and is a representation of each of our unique divine perspectives. Now, before you start challenging me that you're not that creative or an artist, I will challenge you to look deep inside and see that as a child of the Creator, you are inherently born to create.     In this episode, I spoke with a champion of artists and creatives (that's all of us) on how to honor your creative spirit, be it in business or even as a fun hobby. Join me here for a deep convo with Miriam, all about honoring your inner artist.   Overcoming A Poverty Mindset Our brains have been programmed for safety. The more creative you are, the more you'll come up with stories to not take action or go for it. The same goes for the age-old concept of a starving artist and the idea that to be a creative, you must be poor, starve, or play small. Examine any messages you carry about whether it's self-indulgent or unrealistic to nurture your talents. A poverty mindset limits us from seeing the abundance we have to offer. What “enoughness” would enable you to claim your place as an artist? Your gifts don't need to be perfect or fully formed to contribute beauty and meaning.   Stop Procrastinating Like any entrepreneurial endeavor, an artpreneurial mindset requires vision, grit, savvy, and faith in yourself. Remind yourself regularly why your art matters—to you and those who need it. Your creative work is sacred, even if it feels scary to share it. Start by dedicating small amounts of time daily to your art. Schedule it as you would other essential commitments. Overcome resistance and distractions knowing that momentum builds when you show up consistently.   Stop procrastinating and make your creativity a priority. Procrastination erodes trust in yourself.   You Are Creative You may be surprised what opens up when you commit fully to your inner artist and creativity. The creator created you to shine and share your specific gifts. By nature, you are creative, and the world needs your unique creative genius—now more than ever.    A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Marianne Williamson Marianne Williamson is a bestselling author, political activist, and spiritual thought leader. She has been a leader in spiritual and religiously progressive circles for over three decades. She is the author of 15 books, four of which have been #1 New York Times bestsellers. Williamson founded Project Angel Food, a non-profit organization that has delivered more than 14 million meals to ill and dying homebound patients since 1989. The group was created to help people suffering from the ravages of HIV/AIDS. She has also worked throughout her career on poverty, anti-hunger, and racial reconciliation issues. In 2004, she co-founded The Peace Alliance and supports the creation of a U.S. Department of Peace. Williamson ran for the Democratic nomination for president in 2020. And she'll be running for president again in 2024! To learn more about how you can support Marianne, go to: Marianne2024.com   This conversation was one I'd been waiting to have for years. I became a fan of Marianne's years ago when I read her book Illuminata and became interested in A Course In Miracles. Marianne is known for her brilliant wisdom, spiritual teachings, and social justice work based on the principles from A Course In Miracles. I recently read Marianne's book, "A Politics of Love: A Handbook for a New American Revolution," and was overwhelmed by her visionary perspective on bridging the gap between spirituality and politics. We discussed the tenets in the book and how to start shifting our relationship to politics and ourselves through the practical application of love, well-being for all, and social justice.    Love as a Transformative Force Marianne Williamson asserts that love is not merely a personal or romantic sentiment but a powerful force for positive societal change. We discussed how politics devoid of love and compassion perpetuates division and suffering, while politics grounded in love can heal and transform. This is as basic as seeing a child who's hungry and feeding them. We are wired for love and compassion, yet somewhere along the line lose this innate connection.    Moral and Spiritual Awakening Marianne calls for a moral and spiritual awakening among individuals and society, as a whole. This means changing our internal narrative of not being political, which I can relate to. She is urging us to take a stand for democracy, or we seriously risk losing our freedom. Marianne believes an inner transformation is essential for addressing the pressing challenges we face collectively, such as inequality, environmental degradation, and social injustice. This brings us to why we must all do our inner work to heal past traumas, resentments, and grievances. In other words, you must do your part to be your ‘You-est You' before we can be our ‘We-est We.'    Politics as an Expression of Love Marianne also encourages individuals to engage in politics to express their deepest values and spiritual beliefs. She emphasizes the importance of aligning political choices with personal integrity, empathy, and a commitment to the common good. Love in action is how we commit to greater social justice and economic equality. This means we do our inner work to address systemic injustices perpetuating poverty, racism, sexism, and other forms of oppression. I love that Marianne focuses on love-based politics that can bring about meaningful change and create a more equitable society. As she shared in this interview, let us not forget Abraham Lincoln's poignant quote, “With malice toward none with charity for all.”   Taking Personal Responsibility  Don't underestimate your importance and power in creating greater change for freedom, justice, and joy for everyone. Marianne stands for putting "A Politics of Love" into action by embracing the question, ‘What is the most loving thing you can do here?', and a commitment to social justice. She takes a holistic viewpoint toward transforming our society and country.    It's Time We All Do Shadow Work Doing shadow work means meeting the challenging and triggering parts of ourselves that need, want, and require our compassion, attention, and love. What is needed on an individual level is also needed at a collective level. We discussed the necessity of our society owning that in addition to our inner shadows, ego-based judgments, and ‘attack thoughts', we also have this work to do on a national and collective level. This is something that we can all strive to do every time we embrace a challenging situation or person with love, understanding, and true forgiveness.    A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Julie Reisler Julie Reisler, recently voted “Top 10 most influential Life Coaches to follow in 2023', is the host of the You-est You™ podcast, which is now in over 175 countries. Julie is a board-certified master life coach with over ten years of coaching experience and a master's degree in health & wellness coaching from the Maryland University of Integrative Health. Julie is the founder of the Life Designer® Coach Academy, a spiritual life coach certification, and a professor at Georgetown University. She is the author of Get a PhD in YOU, an Amazon top-pick, and has been featured in Forbes magazine, MindBodyGreen, Bustle, The Chopra Center, and Thrive Global. Julie is also a prominent teacher, course creator, and guide on the popular app, Insight Timer.   Your Thoughts Feed The Quantum Field Whether or not you might realize it, everything about you is made of energy, including your thoughts. Your thoughts, whether kind, heart-centered, resentful, mean, or lacking hope, will feed your mind and body and the larger field of energy around you. Our thoughts contribute to greater collective consciousness. I like to think about it like the old cartoons where you'd see thought bubbles above the character's head. Imagine if you combined all the thought bubbles around our heads into one giant thought bubble. That's what the collective consciousness is — one massive thought bubble of energy and emotion generated by you and me. This means that what you're thinking and saying to yourself matters not only for your mind, body, and emotional well-being but also for the collective. Pretty powerful, right?!   How To Stop Your Negative Thoughts We all experience in the ballpark of 70,000 thoughts a day. Many of these thoughts are negative, throw-away thoughts that don't add value or support to your self-esteem. The problem is that over time it's easy to start believing your negative thoughts, which leads to a cascade of negative consequences affecting your well-being and life. There is a way out, and it starts with greater awareness.    The simple way to know when you've treaded in dangerous negative thought territory is by how you feel. If a thought has you feeling overwhelmed, angry, resentful, envious, or lacking energy, you know that you're in the neighborhood of unhelpful thoughts. If thought is life-giving and for your highest good, you'll feel greater vitality, energy, and positivity.  Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor talked about this in past interviews in our conversation about her brilliant book, Whole Brain Living. She reminds us that we are emotional beings first, who then think.    This means that your emotions are excellent indications of the kinds of thoughts you are having. The good news is that once you learn how to become an observer and get out of judgment, you can develop the ability to change your thoughts quickly.   This transformative episode taught us the importance of overcoming self-criticism for mental well-being and personal growth. By embracing our imperfections, cultivating self-compassion, and building a solid support system, we can break free from the chains of self-criticism and embark on a journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance. Becoming your ‘You-est You' is a lifelong journey worth pursuing.    Thank you for tuning in to this episode of the You-est You podcast.

Meet Chef Whitney Aronoff Whitney Aronoff is a Health Supportive Personal Chef in Laguna Beach, California. Passionate about wellness, the vibration of food, and supporting others in living their best life. Chef Whitney attended culinary school at The Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City and went on to work at farm-to-table restaurants in New York and Newport Beach.  As a personal chef, she prepares custom meals and dinner parties for her clients and shares her seasonal recipes on Starseed Kitchen. In 2020, Chef Whitney launched a line of organic spice blends, sharing the custom seasonings her family has been enjoying for years.     Knowing that a healthy diet is just one layer of being well, in 2021, she launched the podcast High Vibration Living With Chef Whitney Aronoff. She interviews experts on healthy eating, cooking, wellness, beauty, travel, and spirituality to help others find the modalities and tips to help them feel their best.     The healthiest meal you can eat is the one you make at home. Chef Whitney aims to invite people into their kitchen, feeling empowered to make healthy choices for themselves and their loved ones and to experience high-vibration living.   Starting From Scratch In 2014 Whitney was working as an HR manager for a company in Washington, DC, feeling a total lack of passion and excitement. She describes this experience as losing her spark and deciding to go on a quest to find out what lit her up. In doing this inner work, she rediscovered her inner girl, who loved food, health, well-being, and playing with food. She realized she wanted to attend culinary school and follow her passion for healthy food and cooking. After being let go from her position in HR, which she later saw as a blessing in disguise, Whitney enrolled in the Natural Gourmet Kitchen culinary program in New York City and changed up her entire routine and life by starting from scratch. With a blowup mattress, a few suitcases, and her books, Whitney headed for the Big Apple and immersed herself in culinary school and all things healing and health related to the culinary world.   Handling Forks In The Road In starting from scratch to build her new life and business, Whitney shared the wisdom that building something viable and truly serving your niche takes time. After culinary school, Whitney had a fantastic job in New York, working for a well-known restaurant group, learning and enhancing her skills in various areas. Again, she found herself at another fork in the road when her father invited her to return to Southern California, rent-free, and try her own business. Chef Whitney decided to take the opportunity and learned another important lesson; it's ok to change and start new again. From this place of starting, she has built Starseed Kitchen, a successful organic spice blend company, a personal chef business, and a thriving show called The High Vibe Living podcast.    Changing Up The Recipe In Life It's not only ok to change up your recipe in life but also to embrace that what you enjoy doing, experiencing, and eating now is probably different than twenty years ago. Our spiritual and inner growth need to allow for greater flow, change, and ease. She is learning now that it's time again to shift her energy and focus and spend more time on her self-care and reassess how she's working and serving others. This is a great reminder for us all to be open to the ebb and flow of life and natural shifts of innate growth and change. The important thing is to trust when it's time to change the recipe, and just like you might head into a kitchen with a variety of ingredients, let yourself play with what feels right and see what your soul comes up with. You never know what this next recipe will bring to your life and others.    A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Adair Cates Adair Cates, one of my very dear friends, is a mom of twin girls, XCHANGE facilitator, Conscious Leadership trainer, and coach passionate about doing the inner work to be our best selves. Adair has designed and facilitated thousands of one-on-one and group conversations to unlock potential, promote well-being and accelerate sustained change.  Using the strengths-based XCHANGE approach, Adair has led everything from team engagement events in organizations like Microsoft and Meta (Facebook) to online TedX gatherings, multi-day women's retreats, and organization-wide Conscious Leadership development trainings. She's a master experience designer and facilitator and a certified Heartmath Resilience Trainer with 15+ years of experience in adult education, leadership development, and mindfulness. She is the author of two self-development books, Live with Intention and Fully Engaged.   In this episode, I talked with Adair Cates, my dear friend, about living life on life's terms and how she has moved through and been healing her nervous system, body, and mind after experiencing incredible loss. We often discuss spiritual and energy practices that help us stay regulated, resourced, and grounded. One of the biggest learnings on both parts is slowing down. Adair reminds us that we can attract instead of hustle and that relationships are more than just getting shit done.    Regulating Your Nervous System Adair sadly lost her co-parenting partner and father to her twin daughters two years ago. She dealt with a degenerative eye condition that had her stop driving and other daily activities. Learning to regulate her nervous system was crucial to handling the grief, stressor, and loss as a mom to two young girls. Adair talked about the healing effects of techniques like breathwork, meditation, kundalini yoga, and other self-care practices promoting nervous system regulation.   Giving Yourself Space To Have All Your Feelings One of the gifts from so much grief and loss was learning to give herself the space to experience and have all of her feelings. This is an excellent reminder for us that rather than running away, numbing out, or trying to avoid upsetting feelings, we want to learn how to create a compassionate space to feel whatever it is your feeling. Cultivating a kind and loving space for yourself can make all the difference in your healing journey, whether you're experiencing loss, grief, or a challenge.    How Curiosity Can Heal One aspect of healing that so many overlooks is the power of curiosity. I teach this in my spiritual life coaching certification, and we discussed the healing aspect of questions because questions unlock new possibilities and affirmations. An example might be to ask yourself amidst a challenging time, ‘How might this be a blessing'? By embracing a curious mindset, Adair started to change how she viewed her eye diagnosis, new life circumstances, and life changes.   Sacred feminine friendships are all about authentic connections nourishing the soul and creating space for deep empathy, vulnerability, unconditional support, and love. I pray you also find sacred feminine friendships where you can grow together, share heartbreaks and celebrations, and be your most authentic self.   A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Elyse Archer  Elyse Archer is the founder of the Superhuman Selling, and She Sells movements, which empower entrepreneurs and sales professionals to revolutionize how they sell, explode their income, and achieve quantum leaps in all areas of life. A Salesforce Top Influencer and a thought leader whose insights have been featured in major media, including Forbes and Inc, Elyse is passionate about empowering her clients to sell in a way that leverages their natural gifts and helps them build wealth. She is an international keynote speaker and host of She Sells Radio, where she shares best practices from female entrepreneurs and sales professionals who have accomplished extraordinary goals. Before founding She Sells, Elyse served as a Partner in an 8-figure international sales coaching organization, where she helped sales professionals achieve their goals. Outside of She Sells, Elyse is also a founding team member of Brand Builders Group, a personal branding strategy firm. Her client list includes New York Times bestselling authors, top 100 podcast hosts, and 8-figure entrepreneurs, as well as leaders who are earlier in their journey and committed to scaling their influence, impact, and income. Learn more about Elyse at www.ElyseArcher.com   If you are a ‘giver', have struggled with icky beliefs about money and prosperity, or feel uncomfortable with a masculine version of sales, this episode is for YOU. Listen closely to this deep conversation with Elyse Archer, a dear friend and badass woman leader, who shares how to change your prosperity thermostat and create sales using feminine energy and the power of your divine purpose.    She shares these feminine principles of receiving with us in this episode.    The Power Is In Deciding Elyse decided to change her money mindset; this commitment and a full-out decision changed everything. You can't be wishy-washy about your decisions; you need to go all in and decide that ‘fine' and ‘ok' are not good enough in this one lifetime.    Your Desires Are Green Lights Elyse's essential lesson was learning to trust herself and her intuition. This has also been one of my greatest lessons. To truly flourish and thrive, you must start developing a relationship with yourself that is based on love, kindness, and trust.    Learning How To Sell With Wholeness Elyse shares her story of being trained in sales from a highly masculine perspective, leading to extreme exhaustion, burnout, overwhelm, emptiness, and despair. Maybe you, too, can relate to your training or job expectations. She realized that her soul sought wholeness and a new spiritual center point where she could be of service and raise her impact and prosperity level. Elyse went from a $100,000 year to making $100,000 each month and realized that serving and selling from the heart and learning how to receive was life-changing and prosperous.    While she had a lovely house and fancy things, she didn't feel lit up or whole inside. It wasn't until she invested in herself and got a coach and support to help her create a new paradigm for her identity and life. Additionally, Elyse learned firsthand that what was missing was learning to sell from wholeness. From a new feminine approach where the focus was on being comfortable with receiving and greater visibility. The reminder is to understand that all is based on energy and how you feel about yourself. If you're coming from an aligned place of wholeness, connection, and trust, you will begin to feel that, and the world around you can't help but emulate this transformation.   Learning to Receive Your level of income will never go beyond your level of self-worth. Read that again and take it in. This is everything! Most of us miss genuinely learning how to receive and feeling worthy of receiving, be it a compliment, money, greater visibility, acknowledgment, or an opportunity.

In today's episode, we dive deep into how visualization can help you imagine and manifest your best future self.   Welcome to another episode of the You-est You podcast, where we embark on a heartfelt journey of self-discovery and personal growth. In today's solo conversation, we dive deep into the transformative power of finding your inner beauty and what it truly means to be your ‘You-est You.' Get ready to be inspired as we explore this empowering topic.   Honoring Your You-est You® Do you ever stop to see and feel the incredible beauty within you, my friend? I mean the inexplicable, sacred, awe-inspiring beauty that lives in you and is you? If you're like me, you probably wake up most mornings bypassing this thought as you prepare for the day, pour your coffee, and make sure you've put on clean clothes.    For those of you who studied Latin, ‘est' means ‘are.' So, in essence, your You-est You is all about being who you are, owning your gifts and unique qualities, and allowing yourself to be fully self-expressed as you are.    In this episode, I share my realization about the healing power of beauty that changed my perspective (which we know leads to miracles), beliefs, and energy. Tune in to learn how to reconnect with your inner beauty.  Listening To Your Soul Don't underestimate the power of listening to your inner voice and what your inner desires are pointing to. To hear what your soul is saying, you must have a healthy dose of self-love, compassion, and trust in yourself and your inner guidance. I share some of the recent stories where I followed my nudges and the external signs and synchronicities to find deeper meaning and direction. Getting Back On The Mat I took a good year and a half off from doing yoga after hurting my back in 2022. I was an avid yogi, and taking this time off was highly challenging for me; however, it was a blessing in disguise as I allowed my relationship with my body to heal and transform how I showed up on the mat. What used to be a high-geared workout with flowing movements in between has become a loving and mindful practice of breath, flow in whatever way my body feels best, and profound gratitude for being able to move. My nervous system is much happier, my back is healing, and most importantly, I have stopped the comparison match and am showing up for my practice of breathing with grace, joy, intention, and union (which is the definition of yoga). I pray that you can get back on the mat, be it yoga or any other area of life where you have needed to reset.    Beauty Is A Love Language For years I experienced shame and guilt about my love of beauty. Somehow, growing up in a hyper-intellectual realm, I felt beauty wasn't important, necessary, or valuable. And I'm not just talking about outer appearances, although I love a gorgeous dress or stunning necklace. I mean the beauty found in nature, art, food, writing that flows, dance, synchronicity, and, yes, aesthetics as well. What is often missing is the appreciation of our inner beauty – the beauty of our spirit. I recently had a realization I wanted to share with you. To experience more extraordinary beauty in your life, you have first to be able to spot it in yourself. We are all beautiful because we are all made from the same divine creator. This beauty is timeless, shapeless, and irrelevant to age or external qualities. Remember that your true essence, your ‘You-est You,' shines brightest when you love and accept yourself fully.  A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Sue Ludwig Sue Ludwig is a sought-after speaker, consultant, and writer. A licensed occupational therapist and certified neonatal therapist, she is president and founder of the National Association of Neonatal Therapists (NANT), where she uses a blend of clinical expertise, innovation, and leadership to support the advancement of this specialized field on a global level.  Sue is the media expert in neonatal therapy for the American Occupational Therapy Association, a member of the steering committee for the National Coalition for Infant Health, and a medical advisory board member for Hope for HIE.  She has received the Laura Edmunds Lectureship Award from UMass Memorial Medical Center, the Individual Contribution to Maternal and Child Health Award from the National Perinatal Association, the Entreleadership Momentum Award from Ramsey Solutions, and the Alumni Professional Achievement Award from Eastern Kentucky University. She has also been named a Graham's Foundation Resilience Honoree.  Sue's book Tiny Humans, Big Lessons was published in March of 2022. Today, Sue lives in Cincinnati, Ohio, with her husband and a few dogs and has two grown children.      Lessons From The NICU You will be touched, moved, and empowered by this conversation with Sue. She shares how her years spent caring carefully for tiny humans led to some of her biggest breakthroughs and lessons. Here's the thing, we are all made of energy. In the NICU, it was clear that helping the infants to preserve and manage their energy meant life or death. Sue realized that this is true for adults as well and shared how she applied these lessons to her own life.      Managing Your Energy After the devastating experience of her husband losing his job, losing their dream home and money, working two jobs, and finding out her young son was a victim of a crime, she found herself exhausted, overwhelmed, numb, and in fear mode. Let alone falling asleep in the chair getting her haircut; Sue felt like she was barely surviving. She found herself caught on a hamster wheel that she was dying to get off. The lessons she learned in the NICU helped her heal slowly, come home to herself, and shift her energy. Here are the steps that Sue and I discussed that I know can help you if you're finding yourself in survival mode rather than thriving.    Become aware and observe where your energy is being wasted versus invested.   Realize that you have a choice about where your energy is going.   Ask yourself, ‘What am I doing that gives me energy versus takes away my energy?' Be honest with yourself.   Check your calendar to see where there are energy leaks, in other words, where you are doing things that are not aligned with your energy or priorities. Start to prune anything that is not giving you energy.   Like our dear mutual friend, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor says, please take responsibility for the energy you bring into the room.     Watch Your Words The words you are saying are more powerful than you might realize. Your words are important and can change the energy in the room and within your relationships. Pay attention to the words you're using, observe what you're saying, and notice how you feel when you say certain things. Sue shared how she often used to say, ‘I don't care,' when asked about a preference, be it eating out or doing something. She realized that saying she didn't care didn't powerfully align with how she felt. She started to switch her words and said things like, ‘I don't have a preference,' which felt very different to her husband, family, and herself.      The Power of Intentions Intentions direct your energy. Sue realized the difference it made to setting an intention before entering the NICU and in her life. We talked about her 5-second powerful process that changed her life. I wanted to share it with you here because it's easy to do and can make all the difference in how you feel and show up daily.    Pause Breathe Check your baggage (Sue likes to imagine literally checking your luggage at the door) Set your intention     The World Needs Your You-est You™ I truly hope this conversation gave you more permission to pause, rest, stop pushing, and watch and manage your own energy and inner state. Everyone is unique in their own way, and you certainly are here for a reason. Sue reminds us that we would never compare babies in the NICU, and we should take from this lesson and remember to stop comparing ourselves to others. You're unlike anyone else on the planet, and it's time to honor that. Be willing to believe in your own light, gifts, and talents. It's time to be your ‘You-est You'!   A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Laura Belgray Laura Belgray is the founder of Talking Shrimp, co-creator of The Copy Cure, and author of Tough Titties: On Living Your Best Life When You're the F'ing Worst. An award-winning copywriting expert, she helps entrepreneurs find the perfect words to express and sell what they do in a way that gets them paid to be themselves. Through her work with hundreds of clients (including online biggies like Marie Forleo and Amy Porterfield), she's seen firsthand that putting “you” into your copy and all through your business is pure magic for getting people to love you up, sharing your ideas, and happily click your Buy button. In addition to online types, Laura's list of clients and credits includes NBC, Bravo, HBO, TBS, Fandango, and many more. So if you watch TV -- and don't skip the commercials -- you've probably seen her words on air. You can get Tough Titties (and her badass bonuses) at toughtittiesbook.com.   Some Swear Words Ok, we did get into some swear words in this episode (all in good fun, of course), so if you have little ones around, be sure to put in your earbuds or take us on a solo walk. Laura and I talked all about giving yourself a permission slip to stop trying so hard, embrace the late bloomer in you and do life YOUR way.    This is a book you won't be able to put down. I shared how I couldn't stop reading it and found myself half asleep with pig lard on my face (yes, it's a thing), glasses, and fingertips, as I earmarked almost every page and underlined more than half of the book.   Want inspiration to be a little lazy, less worried about what others think, and a reminder that you are perfect the way you are wired? If so, this is a must-listen-to episode.    The Unfiltered Truth Laura fearlessly confronts life's obstacles in her book, "Tough Titties” and she shares verrrrry openly about her setbacks, disappointments, and embarrassing moments that shaped her into the resilient, take-no-sh*t from anyone woman she is today.   Through her unfiltered storytelling, Laura reminds us that we are not alone in our struggles and encourages us to embrace our vulnerabilities as a source of strength. Heck yes, Laura!   Unleashing Your Inner Boldness and Baddassery "Tough Titties" will empower you to embrace your inner boldness (and badass self) and take courageous action while stopping placing your self-worth based on outside measures. Whether it's promoting your services, products, work, or self, Laura is all about you being your ‘You-est You.'    This book is such a powerful and refreshing read that challenges societal norms, embraces vulnerability, and inspires us to live more vulnerably, authentically, resiliently, and boldly. In fact, it's a stubborn refusal of who you're supposed to be so you can be who you want to be.    A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Lisa Barnett Lisa Barnett is the internationally recognized #1 bestselling author of “Your Soul Has A Plan – Awaken to your life purpose through the Akashic Records,” "The Infinite Wisdom of the Akashic Record," and “From Questioning to Knowing – 73 Prayers to Transform Your Life”. She is also the Founder of the Akashic Knowing School of Wisdom, where she has taught thousands of students worldwide to access personal Soul wisdom and guidance to transform their life, working directly with their personal Akashic Record Keepers. With more than twenty-five years of experience in spiritual healing, Lisa teaches these simple tools which empower individuals to find greater fulfillment, happiness, abundance, and health. Lisa helps you align with your soul path, understand your soul contracts, and complete your karma and vows.   Exploring the Akashic Records Lisa Barnett, Akashic Records expert, and healer, went into detail about the Akashic Records and why you will want to know about them. To begin, the Akashic Records refer to an energetic realm or a cosmic database that is said to store every thought, event, emotion, and experience that has ever occurred throughout time and space. The concept of the Akashic Records can be traced back to ancient civilizations, including the Hindu, Buddhist, and Theosophical traditions. They are believed to be a part of a collective consciousness that transcends individual human existence, providing access to information beyond our ordinary perception and offering an intriguing avenue for exploring the depths of human consciousness and the mysteries of the universe.      Unlocking the Mysteries of Cosmic Knowledge The Akashic Records are often described as existing on the ethereal or astral plane, a dimension beyond our physical reality and in non-linear time. In the realm of the Akashic Records, time is not perceived in a linear fashion. Past, present, and future coexist, allowing access to information from any point in time. The Records are said to encompass multiple dimensions, offering insights into various aspects of existence, including personal, planetary, and even cosmic levels. Stay with me here, as there is much more to explain why they are important for you to understand.    Your Greater Purpose and The Akashic Records Here's the thing, exploring the Akashic Records can aid you in understanding your life purpose, identifying patterns, and releasing energetic blockages, leading to personal growth and healing. We discussed why Lisa wrote her book, Your Soul Has A Plan, and ways to better understand how you have multiple purposes within your life. The idea is to gain profound spiritual insights, expand your awareness and connection to the divine, and support your soul's evolution. Accessing the collective knowledge of the Akashic Records can provide guidance in helping you navigate challenges, promote unity, and create positive change.   Stop Judging Yourself and Start Loving Yourself Here's what Lisa shared that hopefully will help you to understand your greater work and life purpose better. You have your own Akashic library with record keepers. They want you to know how much love they have for you and thank you for all you are doing now to make a positive impact in the world. A reminder: it's not your job to save the world. It is your job to heal and save yourself and do the best you can. Ideally, it's about being more in the flow and letting go of beliefs that aren't yours. Most importantly, stop judging yourself, and don't judge anything you've done. You've come to learn and share with others. Stay in your heart, engage in plenty of self-care, and self-love is crucial.    Learn more about Lisa's powerful courses below:  Course 1: Access Your Personal Akashic Wisdom In this Course, you will learn to access your own Akashic Record, using a vibrational key in the form of a sacred prayer. This key easily opens the door to Divine Guidance from your own Soul's Library, your Akashic Record.  Transform Your Limiting Money Beliefs   If you've been in a financial rut forever, the time is NOW to learn some new & some ancient tools to help you move forward on your path of abundance. You will learn how to clear old contracts and vows you've made and I'll use my proven Akashic healing system to help you release as many layers of money blocks as we can.           A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

In today's episode, we dive deep into how visualization can help you imagine and manifest your best future self.   Get Ready to Visualize Your Highest Potential Before listening to the guided visualization in this episode, be sure to create a conducive environment that allows for greater relaxation, mindfulness, calm, and peace. Keep your journal on hand so you can take notes after the visualization to capture what you noticed, saw, felt, and sensed. I will guide you fully through this process.    The Benefits of Visualization Here's the thing, the benefits of visualization in actualizing your dreams and achieving your goals are numerous and impactful. Here are some key benefits:   Enhanced Clarity: Visualization helps you gain clarity about your goals by creating a vivid mental image of what you want to achieve. It allows you to define your goals with greater precision and detail. Increased Motivation: When you visualize your goals, you tap into the power of your imagination, which fuels your motivation. The vivid mental images of success stimulate your desire and drive, keeping you focused and committed to taking necessary actions. Improved Focus: Visualization helps sharpen your focus by directing your attention to the desired outcome. It acts as a mental rehearsal, training your brain to filter distractions and concentrate on the actions and strategies needed to achieve your goals. Heightened Confidence: By repeatedly visualizing your future self and successfully achieving your goals, you cultivate a sense of confidence and self-belief. This confidence boosts your overall performance and enables you to overcome obstacles and setbacks along the way. Enhanced Performance: Visualization has been shown to improve performance in various domains, including sports, business, and creative pursuits. By mentally rehearsing the actions and outcomes associated with your goals, you build neural pathways that support actual performance and skill development. Increased Resilience: Visualization fosters resilience by helping you mentally prepare for challenges and setbacks. By visualizing yourself overcoming obstacles, you develop a mindset that embraces adversity and finds solutions, ultimately strengthening your ability to bounce back and stay focused on your greater vision and goals.   Change Your Mindset and Mental Picture with Visualization Other benefits include shifting your mental rehearsal and picture of yourself, which affects your belief in what's possible. Visualization cultivates a positive mindset by shifting your focus from potential barriers to envisioning success. It rewires negative thought patterns and reinforces positive beliefs, which can lead to a more optimistic outlook and a greater sense of self-efficacy. It also helps you to align your actions with your intentions. By visualizing yourself in your goal and taking the necessary steps toward your vision, you increase your chances of making choices and decisions that are in line with your desired outcomes.   Watch Your Creativity Soar One of the other powerful aspects of visualization is how it stimulates your innate creativity and problem-solving abilities. As you create mental images of your goals, you tap into your creative potential, allowing for innovative ideas and strategies to emerge. Ultimately, visualization accelerates the achievement of your goals and dreams by creating a powerful mental blueprint of success. By consistently visualizing your goals, you program your subconscious mind to work towards their attainment, making them more attainable and likely to manifest in your reality. How cool is that?! And, it's free!    These benefits all make visualization a valuable tool in goal setting and achievement, empowering you to unlock your full potential and create the future you desire.   Reflect and Unlock Your Best Future Self Visualization is a tool used often in the world of coaching as it can help your client to unlock new dreams, desires, and goals that have been dormant or that have been challenging to access. After this visualization, I encourage you to reflect on your aspirations, values, and passions to identify your ideal future self. Share personal stories or anecdotes that illustrate the transformative power of envisioning a best future self and the miracles you're noticing.      A Free Toolset To Design Your Best Life This stunning free toolset is a 7-day workbook (25 pages full) of powerful mindset practices, grounding meditations (and audio), a new beautiful time management system and template to set your personalized schedule for your best productivity, a personalized energy assessment, and so much more.

Meet Soul Cole Brandon Coleman, or as he is more commonly referred to as SOUL COLE, is a retired NFL player for the New Orleans Saints. After suffering a career-ending injury in 2018, he transitioned into the health and wellness space, becoming a Certified Health & Wellness Coach. Dealing with physical pain, depression, and anxiety, Coleman found his way back to himself by utilizing tools such as therapy, meditation, yoga, breathwork, and sound healing. Coleman was able to reprogram his body, and SOUL COLE emerged with a different kind of strength from his newly garnered practices.    His own personal experiences with injury and loss have given SOUL COLE a unique and profound respect for the value of not only physical but mental and emotional health. Understanding the significance of the tools he received was a catalyst for him achieving a Health and Wellness Coaching Certificate at Georgetown University School of Continuing Study as well as completing the MBSR program from the Mindfulness Center at Brown University, School of Public Health. SOUL COLE is committed to helping others refine and redefine their lives by giving them tools to attain balance, intention, and wellness.   Soul Cole is now a Flow Facilitator, Mental Performance Coach, Certified Breath Coach, and Sound Healing Practitioner. He is intense, driven and places high value on faith, family, and morality. To learn more, go to soulcolethebrand.com.    You Need To Listen To Your Body Soul was gearing up to put his 20 years of hard work into playing for the NFL until he suffered a traumatic injury to his neck and back. He continued to push himself and ended up with surgery that had him shut down on every level. Not knowing how to handle such trauma and up against the stigma of getting support, Soul found himself in a dark and lonely place that led to depression and despair. It was in his desperation that he says that God got his undivided attention, and he started to address the deeper trauma and grief. One of the biggest learnings that Soul talked about is the importance of listening and trusting your body. Everything is connected - the physical, mental, and emotional aspects are all part of a larger integrative body system.    The Power of Surrendering Your Ego  In his dark night of the soul, he finally chose to surrender his ego and saw firsthand how he was chasing validation, pride, and acceptance. While his ego was bruised, his spiritual connection began to deepen and grow. He realized that it's ok not to be ok. How powerful is that, my friend? If you are struggling right now, know that it's ok not to feel ok and that getting support can be the most loving thing you can do for yourself.    How To Leave a Legacy  One of the gifts of Soul's greater healing and awakening starting in 2018 is that it gave him the momentum and habits of self-care and self-realization that he continued to tap into and share during the pandemic. He began to find his voice and was able to make a greater impact and bring diversity to those bringing mindfulness, meditation, and healing to the world. Since his accident, Soul has been nurturing his own connection to himself as well as his faith and spirituality, and that of many others. He's been using his gifts and expertise in breathwork, sound healing, yoga, and coaching to help other individuals, especially in the African American community, come home to themselves.        Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?   If you are feeling a strong urge to help other big-hearted empaths get unstuck and design their best life, you've got to check out my Life Designer Coach Academy.

Meet Shayna and Dana of DayLuna Shayna Cornelius and Dana Stiles, Human Design experts and co-founders of DayLuna, are on a mission to empower the collective towards self-love, personal freedom, and radical authenticity. While they specialize in the realm of self-purpose and conscious entrepreneurship, they also dive deep into topics such as spirituality, parenting, and the new paradigm on their successful podcast, the DayLuna Human Design Podcast, which has generated over 850k downloads worldwide and has featured notable guests including Terri Cole, Debra Silverman, and Sahara Rose.    Shayna and Dana feel passionately called to help spread the complex and life-changing science of Human Design to a broader community in a grounded and approachable way. Through their personalized Human Design ritual kits, personalized parenting blueprints, live readings, reader trainings, and video courses, they have curated many different playful yet informative offerings to help support individuals ready to step into their highest potential by honoring their unique energy. Human Design is gaining popularity as our collective evolves toward a new paradigm. Dana and Shayna have worked with over 1000 clients in this space and have been featured on podcasts, including Highest Self, The Lo Life, and Spiritual Shit, to share their expertise. The pair are both living and thriving in California and are the authors of ‘Your Human Design.'    What is Human Design? In this episode, we'll be talking about human design, a system of ancient modalities combining astrology elements, the I Ching, the Kabbalah, and quantum physics to help individuals understand their unique energetic makeup. Human Design synthesizes these systems to give you a detailed energy blueprint to help you navigate your life authentically and align with your purpose.   Human Design is a system channeled by a man named Ra Uru Hu in 1987.   It combines various mystical and scientific traditions to create a map of each individual's unique energetic blueprint.   The system is based on the idea that each person has a specific role to play in the larger cosmic plan and that understanding their individual design can help them fulfill that role more effectively.   How does human design work? Human design uses an individual's birth information to calculate their "body graph," a visual representation of their energetic makeup. The body graph includes information about the person's type, strategy, authority, centers, channels, gates, and lines. Each of these elements provides insight into different aspects of the person's personality, strengths, challenges, and purpose.We discussed this in greater depth in this conversation.   How Can Human Design Help With Living Your Best Life? Human design can help individuals understand themselves on a deeper level and make decisions that align with their unique nature. It can also help people navigate relationships, career choices, and life transitions more effectively. By recognizing and honoring their individual design, people can live more authentically and fulfill their potential.   The 5 Types In Human Design You'll want to fill out the Human Design assessment, which includes your birthdate, time of birth, and city of birth, to determine your unique type. There are 5 main Human Design types that Shayna and Dana explain in greater depth.   Manifestor: This is a rare type, as less than 10% of the population are manifestors. A manifestor has a powerful aurora that is all about impact, inspiring others, initiating, and then backing off to let others finish. They are the fire starters.    Generator: Generators make up 35% of the population and have an energetic, open and enveloping aura. They propel the world forward and use their creative life force energy to build what they love. They must do what lights them up and respond by using their body, not their mind, to know if something is aligned or not.    Manifesting Generator (aka MG or Man-Gen): Manifesting Generators make up 30% of the world population and possess a surplus of creative life force energy to start and follow through with building and creating new things. They have fire starter energy and need variety to use their energy, otherwise they get bored easily. They must also respond by listening to their body response, not their mind.   Projector: Projectors are 20% of the population and are here to guide the energy of others. Their aura is to see into the other person and guide them. They can get burned out quickly and need to work less but more efficiently. They highly value sharing insight and guidance and need to wait for an invitation before responding. There has to be energetic consent.    Reflector: Reflectors are the rarest type with only 1% of the population falling into this category. Their aura and energy is highly empathetic as they take in energy from everyone and amplify the energy around them. They are like a chameleon and experience everything and nothing. Their sacred purpose is to be a mirror of others and need to show down and wait 28 days before making a decision.    Learn more and get your personalized Human Design chart from DayLuna at daylunalife.com/freechart.     Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

Meet Andrea Nakayama As the host of the 15-Minute Matrix Podcast and the founder of the Functional Nutrition Alliance, Andrea is leading thousands of students and practitioners around the globe in a revolution to offer better solutions to the growing chronic illness epidemic. By highlighting the importance of systems biology, root cause methodology, and therapeutic partnerships, she helps historically underserved individuals reclaim ownership of their health.   What is Functional Nutrition? Functional Nutrition was born in the 1990s as a way to fill in the gaps in medicine and healthcare. It was founded on the premise that there are three important components to address with each patient: Embrace the therapeutic partnership - the relationship between a functional medicine expert and the client is symbiotic, and it's crucial to see your client as the expert of their body Root causes - which is about asking, ‘Why is this happening?' Systems biology - this is the understanding that everything in the body is connected. Functional medicine and nutrition take the approach that everybody is unique and that everything is connected. Most of the medical field puts different parts of our body into boxes, whereas functional medicine is about a systems approach.   The 3 Roots to Healing Your Body  Andrea likes to look at healing and caring for your body, especially if you have a chronic or inflammatory illness from a ‘3 roots, many branches' perspective. Here's an excellent analogy that illustrates this philosophy. Imagine you're in a field, and you see a gorgeous tree. You get closer to the tree and notice that a few of the branches are dry and dying, and some of the leaves are not as healthy. You wouldn't get on a ladder and start to chop off branches; you'd want to go down to the trunk and the root system. Human beings are the same— it's imperative to analyze and address the whole system by looking at the roots, soil, and terrain.    The 3 roots to address are as follows: Genes Digestion Inflammation   Managing Your Genes Andrea talks about the 4 influences on your gene expression: mindset, movement, environment, and food. All of these can influence turning on or off genes and genetic predispositions, so understanding the importance of each of these is important. For example, mindset means your belief system and how you are processing events, life experiences, and your way of looking at the world. Having a growth mindset, for example, will be helpful in supporting you to look for lessons, deeper meaning, and growth opportunities in every situation.     Understanding digestion The 2nd main root is digestion, and the circles of influence within digestion are mechanical, chemical, structural, and microbiol. Digestion is really about growth, metabolism, and repair.    Here are a few helpful tips Andrea shares that can enhance your digestion: Be sure to chew your food thoroughly. So many of us eat while being distracted, on the run, or in a rush, and we eat our food without fully or properly chewing before swallowing. Over time, this is just one issue that can lead to digestive problems.  With digestion and finding the best plan of eating,  it's not about being on a diet or what's ‘right,' but more about what's best for your body. The ideal balance is a diet that has fat, fiber, and protein in the correct amounts for each individual body.   Stress is one of the culprits that affect both digestion and the immune system. Finding ways to reduce stress will help your overall gut health. Eat the rainbow to keep as much diversity as possible in your diet.    Reducing Inflammation  The third root is all about inflammation, and the four circles of influence are clear, calm, modulate, and enhance. Aspects of how you're managing stress and your life can affect inflammation, such as having clear boundaries and saying no when you mean it versus being a people pleaser and saying yes even when it's a no.    Other ways to reduce inflammation: Be clear about your needs, boundaries, and what works for you. Incorporate mindfulness and calm every day, be it meditation, yoga nidra, a walk in nature, or breathwork. Be mindful of what you're saying to yourself, give yourself enough downtime, and get proper rest.    You Can Reclaim Your Health What I love about the power of functional nutrition and what we discussed in this conversation is the sacred focus on the mind, body, and spirit as a dynamic system where everything is connected. Here's hoping you are inspired to slow down, say no when you mean no, eat a color palette, and take time to chew and enjoy your food and life. Here's to your ‘You-est You'!    To learn more about Andrea and her work, go to www.andreanakayama.com       Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

Meet Barbara Huson Barbara Stanny Huson is a renowned author, speaker, and financial expert who has helped thousands of women transform their relationships with money. After struggling with financial challenges in her early years, Barbara made it her life's mission to understand the psychology of money and help women become financially empowered.   She has written numerous bestselling books (some of my all-time favorites) on the subject, including Prince Charming Isn't Coming: How Women Get Smart About Money, Overcoming Underearning: A Five-Step Plan to a Richer Life, Sacred Success: A Course in Financial Miracles and Rewire for Wealth.   Barbara has become a leading voice in the personal finance world and a champion of women's financial health. She has been featured on major media outlets, including The Today Show, CNN, and The New York Times, and has spoken at conferences and events all over the world. Barbara's unique approach to financial empowerment is grounded in spiritual principles and focuses on helping women overcome limiting beliefs and tap into their inner strength and wisdom. She believes that true wealth is not just about money but also encompasses a sense of purpose, fulfillment, and joy.    Sacred Success As one of my personal mentors and teachers, I wanted to bring Barbara back on my show to talk about overcoming fear and a scarcity mindset in a time of economic shifts.   If you're ready to take charge of your financial future and become the boss of your money and financial well-being, you won't want to miss this exciting interview on the You-est You podcast. Barbara's wisdom and experience will inspire and motivate you to take action.   Fear is an indicator light of success. Success always lies outside our comfort zone. As Joseph Cambell said, “The cave you fear to enter is where your treasure lies.” It's crucial to enter the points of pain and fear as this is where you will begin to heal and transform. It's our secrecy and silence that keep us stuck. Focusing on your thoughts and feelings leading to the fears and stories that aren't serving your financial well-being is a good place to start.    Barbara defines sacred success as pursuing your soul's purpose for your own bliss and the benefit of others while being richly rewarded. Isn't that SO powerful?    A Busy Woman's Guide to Financial Success Barbara interviewed thousands of successful, high-earning women and came to the following realization about women creating success financially:    1) No one is going to save you or do it for you  2) You don't have to do it alone and shouldn't go at it alone (as women, we're wired for connection and naturally relationship-oriented)  3) Find a financial professional to help you   These are the habits that are crucial to building financial literacy and wealth:  Every day you must read something about money and familiarize yourself with the jargon. Every week have a conversation about money with someone who knows more than you do. Every month save automatically and make it a consistent habit.   The Wealth Connection Whether you know it or not, the brain controls our behavior, and our mind shapes our brain. Barbara explains that true financial success is 4 pronged in this way:   You must do the outer work of wealth (knowing your numbers, getting help managing your money, learning about money, and increasing your financial literacy).   You need to pursue the Inner work of wealth, which includes studying your attitudes, beliefs, and early decisions around money.   There's a spiritual and higher realm of wealth, and once you know your purpose and are financially stable, you can be of higher service. The more you have, the more you can give.   The deeper work of your mind and brain connection is crucial and often overlooked. This is explained in depth in Barbara's book, Rewire for Wealth.    The Three Levels of Financial Wellbeing Barbara shared in clear and easy terms the three levels of financial being. See which one resonates the most and how you might start working on your own financial set point to move to the level of affluence and overflow.    The three levels of financial being are: Survival - this is where you do not have enough money and feel like you are barely getting by. Stability - you have just enough money but not a lot of extra or overflow.   Affluent - You have more than enough money and are able to experience financial freedom on all levels.    We discussed how to create affluence. I thought Barbara's wisdom here was spot on. To have affluence, you need to give up profit as the primary goal. It's actually about greatness.    Greatness is the intersection where your deep gladness meets the world's deepest hunger. As Frederick Buechner said, “The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet.”That is sacred success.    Spiritual Guidance With Money A Course In Miracles (ACIM) is a spiritual guide that helped Barbara to heal her relationship with money (and is helping me on my own journey as well). Money gives us choices and freedom. As Dr. Rev. Michael Beckwith says, “You can't be the Light of the world if you can't pay your light bills.“ I loved Barbara's definition of money (something she almost left out of her book for fear of being too ‘woo woo') – “I believe that money is God made visible.” This exact quote is what put her book on the map worldwide.    Back to ACIM and how this relates. A miracle is defined as a shift in perception. That is what you want to ask for with your money and in general. You're asking to have a shift in how you're perceiving money on all levels. One way to do this is by making spiritual guidance a daily practice to embed this as a new way to view the world and money.    I had to ask Barbara about her daily morning practice, and here's what she does: Half an hour of stretching. Listens to uplifting music (for her, it's country!) Reads the lesson of the day from ACIM. Meditation in bed. Imagines how she wants to feel that day to pre-pave her day. Eats breakfast in bed with her hubby.   Overcoming Fear We discussed overcoming fears, especially around money. When you feel fear about your money, be sure to stay in the energy of inspiration. Above all else, ask the Universe something like: ‘Let me see this differently. Let me see this through your inspiration and eyes.' Remember, wealth comes from you becoming and being your authentic self (what I call your ‘You-est You'), which is often conditioned out of you.    My friend, get ready to unlock your full financial potential and spiritual connection to money.

Don't hold back, my friend. Be honest here. Do you think being ‘woo woo' is wacky!? Is it something you find amusing, trendy, or maybe even unsettling? Let's explore the deeper meaning behind this concept.  I admit to having used this term in the past, only to regret belittling something that holds scientific and spiritual truths. In this episode, I offer a fresh perspective that will help you appreciate practices often labeled as ‘woo.'  I even came up with a new framework to really understand how to see things considered ‘woo' from a whole new empowering and life-giving perspective.  Join me on this journey of discovery, where you can unlock the potential for enhanced health, wellbeing, and a deeper sense of unity.    Understanding Heart Intelligence   As you probably know, I love the research and work done at the HeartMath Institute. A portion of all proceeds from my coach certification program goes to HeartMath, and I regularly donate to their organization because I believe in their discoveries and work…which some might consider ‘woo woo.'  Let me share with you one of the recent studies shared from the HeartMath Institute that will illustrate how important it is not to dismiss energy, beliefs, and things that could be considered ‘woo.' A lot of research has been done to uncover a remarkable relationship between our thoughts, feelings, and attitudes and the effects they have on our own physical DNA. As you might already know after listening to my interview with Dr. Bruce Lipton, author of Biology of Belief, it turns out that our genes are changeable and not fixed. According to research done through the HeartMath Institute, heart-centered positive emotions like compassion, love, gratitude, joy, and care can all improve our immune function, suppress inflammation and heal our nervous system.  And get this, the practice of heart coherence (which has to do with your heart rate variability or HRV) and setting intentions (see my past interview with Lynne McTaggart about the power of intentions) was found to create the most significant impact on the physical aspects of DNA strands. What this means is that self-empowered healing is a real thing. It is backed by science and certainly NOT ‘woo woo.'    The Wisdom Of Oneness   Rather than focus on how we're different, my new framework for WOO: the Wisdom Of Oneness honors traditions, spiritual truths, and science that shows how we're all connected. To learn more about the power of our oneness, I highly recommend reading the book The Divine Matrix by Gregg Braden, who has been a guest three times on this show.   My question to you is, how might you find that oneness within yourself?    Here are the links I mentioned in this episode: Gregg Braden Radical Resilience (https://youtu.be/mYQoV1wyZw4) Self Healing & The Divine Matrix (https://youtu.be/FYpdo1Drl7I) How to Thrive Now (https://youtu.be/EmrCFWSOOLU) Lynne McTaggart The Power of Intentions (https://youtu.be/KHHqAGT2qWk) Dr. Bruce Lipton The Biology of Belief (https://youtu.be/SZhNwqP2Plg) Dr. Debbie Rozman HeartMath (https://youtu.be/bTvV4Y5tmfE) Dr. Rollin McCraty The Science Behind Intuition (https://youtu.be/YWMFbS4g0LY) Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor How To Self Soothe (https://youtu.be/gox_ZIwZdpk) Whole Brain Living (https://youtu.be/_LisJ6vFwEk) Alan Cohen A Course In Miracles Made Easy  (https://youtu.be/eiRMIYbvqyU)   Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?   If you are feeling a strong urge to help other big-hearted empaths get unstuck and design their best life, you've got to check out my Life Designer Coach Academy.

Meet Aaron Abke   Aaron Abke is a paradigm-shifting spiritual teacher who delivers a fresh, new perspective on Self-Realization through his teachings on the Law of One, Non-Duality, and Spiritual Intelligence. Aaron aims to provide humanity with the tools, knowledge, and practices needed to aid our collective ascension to Enlightenment, or "4th Density Consciousness". His passion and purpose are to awaken this planet to the awareness of our oneness and collective destiny as an Enlightened civilization.   Ok, gorgeous soul, this conversation definitely goes deep into the metaphysical and cosmic worlds. I'd invite you to listen with your heart and an open mind. Of course, sift through the conversation, take what resonates, and leave the rest.      The Law of One To set the context here, I asked Aaron to share his wisdom on The Ra Material: The Law of One. This book was channeled in the 1980s by UFO researchers who spent years and took meticulous care to connect with and take note of their 106 conversations with Ra, a 6th-density social memory complex. In short, this refers to minds that are all joined on another density plane that are all acting as one mind. This is a similar concept if you listen to Abraham Hicks (channeled by Esther Hicks). And don't worry my friend, I will be sure to explain what this means.    We Are All One In essence, Ra states that the whole universe is one being and that all creation is of one thought. We're each literally like a neuron in the Divine Mind, and we all play in the totality of the creator knowing itself. Our minds create the illusion of being separate and of the idea of evil. In reality, there is no evil in God. God is perfect love, unity, and wholeness. The highest truth is our oneness. Everything in the Universe is electromagnetic energy. Every particle has a charge. You must choose which polarity you want to be — positive or negative. The negative charge represents separation and not being connected to your heart. This often shows up as an endless need for power at the expense of others. The positive polarity is about love and being of service to others. When you love and serve, you are emulating the Creator.    Why Your Chakras Are Important   You may not realize that there are 7 densities of consciousness for the soul to evolve, and they are also connected to the 7 chakras (energy wheels of life). Here's a brief overview to give you a taste of how the chakras are related to life experiences.    The primal chakras are 1 - 3, whereas the spiritual chakras are 4 - 7. These 7 energy centers are all about how the soul journeys over a 75,000-year period from separation to oneness.    The 1st density is the Root, a red ray of pure being. All 5 elements of the Universe; wood, fire, earth, air, and metal- are considered the root.  The 2nd density of consciousness is the orange ray which signifies growth, movement such as our animals, plants, fish, and pets.  The 3rd density, the yellow ray, is the ‘I AM' consciousness we experience as human beings. It's about becoming self-aware and is connected to the solar plexus.  The 4th density, the green ray, is all about love, oneness, and unity. Ra talks about just needing 51% of the human population to be polarized to the positive to regain and reclaim unity consciousness. This density is about the connection of all things, realizing that separation is an illusion of the mind. Many of us (especially if you are moved to read this) are now moving toward the 4th density.  The 5th density is that of light and is connected to the throat chakra, sharing wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. This is the realm of light bodies that are purely electromagnetic in density.  The 6th density is the indigo ray and is the law of one density, which is all about unity between love, light, and wisdom. The Ra social memory complex is a conglomerate of higher consciousness that streams as one unified consciousness.  The 7th density is where you become your higher self. This gateway density is connected to the crown and where the highest guides merge back into source energy.  The Power of Forgiveness Forgiveness is the answer to healing all human wounds, for it taps into the powerful energy of letting go and moving forward. On a metaphysical level, forgiveness gives you the opportunity to see the illusion of separateness. It allows you to release the idea of ‘right' or ‘wrong,' instead putting you into a realm of love and compassion and letting go of anger from the mind and body.    The Feminine and Masculine Energies Explained The feminine and masculine energies within all human beings are crucial for healing and are often misunderstood. The masculine represents the mind, and much of the healing here is about correcting false beliefs in the mind. When you forgive yourself and others, you remember who you are. The feminine represents the heart and the ‘I AM' state. Healing happens when you give love to the part of you that is upset. It's ok to feel afraid and hurt, but loving those wounded parts of yourself will help you heal. Remember, all suffering is a cue that you're perceiving yourself in a way that is not true. True enlightenment is making every relationship loving, including the one with yourself.    Healing The Mind & Overcoming Suffering All suffering is a cue that you are perceiving yourself in a way that's not true. We suffer because we're obsessed with ourselves, whereas the best way to heal the mind and suffering is through being of service to others, both in thought and action. Positive thoughts and actions have a positive charge. Giving and receiving are one, so you keep for yourself what you give away. For those who have read and worked through ACIM (A Course in Miracles), Aaron also referenced a very important understanding that most of us miss. The way we see the world is upside down, and what disturbs me most in others is a mirror of what's in my mind. Really what's needed for most of us is a healing of the mind.          Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?   If you are feeling a strong urge to help other big-hearted empaths get unstuck and design their best life, you've got to check out my Life Designer Coach Academy.

Meet Judith Richards Trauma Response Creator, Judith Richards, who was most recently in the documentary FACING FEAR,  is an extraordinary woman who suffered unspeakable abuse. This abuse, which started as a little girl, continued in various forms into her adulthood. Physical and psychological trauma was Judith's normal. Time and time again, she found herself in a loop that kept repeating from one toxic situation to the next. It was not a good place to be, and it was not safe. Eventually, as a middle-aged adult, Judith managed to extract herself from the continued and repetitive abuse; however, she isolated herself as it was the safest option. But this wasn't a life. The residual effects of Judith's trauma plunged her into a horrendous mental state of extreme PTSD breakdown - living in hallucinations, flashbacks, and terror. She discovered that escaping from the abuse was one thing, but repairing and resolving the impacts of the trauma was an even greater challenge. Learning how to live with her trauma was never a viable option. She needed to resolve it. Piece by piece, Judith found a way to repair herself with what is now her leading trauma response process, known as TRTP.   Rewiring Your Subconscious          Here's the thing most of us don't realize – our conscious mind only accounts for 5% of our life, whereas our unconscious mind runs everything else. We pick up beliefs about ourselves early on in our life, starting from birth until 8 years or so. So, if you grew up feeling that it wasn't safe to be seen or heard, you will continue to develop an unconscious belief that it's not safe to be visible (which is especially a tough one for those wanting to make a bigger impact in the world). We take on our negative core beliefs, which become the foundation for our beliefs and actions. We thus manifest what our unconscious believes. Judith shares how she changed her unconscious mind, which then changed her life and allowed her to keep past traumas in the past.  Overcoming Trauma  Trauma, or distress (a similar term for trauma that can cause less of an emotional response), as Judith discussed, is stored in our body. Distress is an event where your amygdala is triggered (the emotional center of the brain), and hormones like the underlying root fear behind trauma, be it anxiety or depression, is that you are not safe. The problem is that when your body is constantly stressed, staying in the fight-flight or freeze state, your nervous system stops regulating, and it feels like past traumas are happening in the present. You continue to emit cortisol and adrenaline, and your body keeps reliving this high state of alert and feeling unsafe.    The Power of Choice  One of the most important aspects of healing trauma is taking back your personal agency and reclaiming your power of choice. Judith demonstrates this brilliantly in the film, Facing Fear, and we discussed how crucial it is to fully embody and embrace your choice to know that you're safe and that you deserve to heal. One of the ways to do this is to use power statements around choice that aren't just affirmations but are commitments to yourself with intense emotion. Here are a few examples of what you might say: I get to choose. I choose to know that it's now safe for me. I choose this in every cell of my body and in my being. I choose to deserve to be treated with care and respect. I choose this because I can. I am enough. I vow to love me.   Facing Fear Judith was recently in the film, Facing Fear by filmmaker Bill Bennett, addressing universal questions about whether we need fear and what it's for. Bill had received devastating personal news, which catapulted him into fear. Then, as the pandemic hit, fear turned global. Bennett traveled the globe to seek answers in this extraordinary examination of fear. Experts such as Dr. Joe Dispenza, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Caroline Myss, James Van Praagh, Sister Jenna, Lee Carroll, Paul Selig, Foster Gamble, Michael Tamura, and many more shared their wisdom about fear. You can learn more about this film and how to view it at facingfearmovie.com.   To learn more about Judith and her work, go to trtptherapy.com.      Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

Meet Erika Bélanger Erika Bélanger is a yoga teacher, stress coach, and the host of the On & Off Your Mat Podcast. As a teacher and leader, Erika helps her clients move from surviving to thriving by managing their thoughts, feeling their feelings, and regulating their nervous system, so they can reconnect to their body and its needs to experience more joy, connection, and love. Her radiant spirit and engaging sense of humor create light-hearted somatic practices focused on awareness, intentional movement, and self-care.    Feeling 'Not Enough' and 'Too Much' Oh, do I know this terrible twin well of feeling both 'not enough' and 'too much'. My guest today shares all about her struggles with being told she was too sensitive, 'too much', and to stop being so difficult. What ensued in abandoning herself was a full-blown eating disorder and a whole lot of self-loathing. Erika shares openly about hitting rock bottom (a few times) and what helped her to heal her nervous system, body, and mind (for real). We dove into the various practices and ways to create safety within your own self and body and how to stop rejecting your feelings, emotions, and self.    Best Practices for The Highly Sensitive Here are some of the highlights and most helpful practices to start using if you're struggling as a Highly Sensitive Person or empath with burnout, overwhelm, anxiety, hopelessness, and feelings of despair. You'll definitely want to tune into the whole conversation to hear how you can create lasting healing change within your body and mind.   1) First, you must learn to accept and embrace your own sensitivity and whatever you're feeling and experiencing. Drop the shame and stop bullying yourself. 2) If you want to learn how to meet your own needs, you must be ok with what you actually need.  3) Contrary to what you might think, when you're feeling anxious or unsettled, you'll want to match this energy with loving actions that have a similar energy, such as dancing, shaking, running, tapping, etc, before cultivating a more peaceful state. 4) To support your sensitivity, ask yourself, 'What do I need?' and then listen, honor, and meet your needs. 5) Creating safety is key to your healing and well-being.    Want Further Support To Create Inner Peace? If you would like further support to create safety from within, and heal your relationship with yourself (and your nervous system), let's connect further to see how I can support you on your healing journey.  You can schedule a virtual coffee chat at juliereisler.com/chat.      Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

She is also a prominent teacher, course creator, and guide on the popular app Insight Timer.    Tapping into Your Intuitive Guidance While it might sound a bit ‘woo' or out there, the truth is that we all have intuitive guidance to help us make decisions and choices in all areas of life, really. It's called your emotional guidance system, and when you learn how to tune in and trust it, you will start to notice patterns when something feels right, be it something you sense in your body or an image you might see, or an emotion you feel. You'll also learn how to decipher what ‘no' feels like within your own inner guidance. I've interviewed many experts, luminaries, and scientists on the show, like Gregg Braden, Sonia Choquette, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Dr. Rollin McCraty, Dr. Judith Orloff, Laura Lynne Jackson, and many others who have discussed the importance of tapping into and listening to your intuition. As Sonia Choquette shared in her interview, remember that intuition literally means ‘your inner teacher.' In today's solo episode, I decided to honor my intuition and pull cards from a few of my favorite decks to see what showed up as messages, themes, and wisdom for all of us. As always, my friend, take what you like and discard the rest. And above all, make sure you run all of what I share through your own brilliant intuitive guidance. It will never lead you astray!   How To Use Oracle Cards         There are many ways to use oracle cards. The way that I love to use them is by no means scientifically backed, but it is a process I've been using for years that has been spot on for me and for those in my Sacredology community (where I give intuitive messages from time to time). I first like to get a sense of which deck wants to ‘play' with me. Once I've decided, I take the cards out and begin to shuffle them while I state a very clear intention that sounds like this: “May I pull a card(s) that is for the highest good for me and all those I'm here to serve. May this card(s) shed light, open hearts, and bless me and everyone involved.” I then shuffle and often span the cards out in my hands to see which one feels like it wants to be pulled out. Often it's the top card, but sometimes it's another card wedged in the deck. I trust my guidance and have never pulled a card that didn't fully resonate. I'd encourage you to practice this process or one that works for you and take note of the cards you get and what they mean to you. After time, if you continue to play with your intuition and the oracle cards, you will start to see patterns, themes, and wisdom that I'm confident will guide you through whatever is going on in your life. Playing and tapping into the wisdom of my cards has helped me enormously in connecting more deeply with my ‘me-est me.'    The Oracle Cards In this Episode I pulled some powerful cards in this solo session, and I am sharing the card, main message, and where you can get them below. I'd love to hear from you what resonates the most and what you're discovering about yourself.    The You-est You Intention Deck juliereisler.com/shop   The first card I chose was: Integrity The intention: Integrity is the cornerstone of having a life that works with ease. I choose to align my words and actions with my highest intentions and to follow through on what I say and commit to. I show up in my life today with integrity and responsibility for all that occurs in my life.    The second card I chose was: Laughter The intention: Laughter is healing for my body and soul. I will find time to invite laughter into my day to lighten up myself and those around me.    Ask yourself, where might you add more integrity to your life? Where are you in and out of integrity? Note: Do not judge yourself either way here. Also, look at where and how you're adding levity, laughter, and lightness to your life.   Animal Spirit Guidebook Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3JO4gju The next deck I picked from is another one of my favorites. This beautiful deck will give you incredible guidance and insight connected to different animal spirits and the four elements: water, air, earth, and fire.    The card I chose was: Vulture   Deeper meaning: The vulture signifies both a guardian and a purifier. This is one of the most misunderstood creatures, as its gift is purification and helping to bring you back into balance.    Something to think about: What you think is a tragedy or mistake is actually a blessing in disguise   Sacred Traveler Oracle Cards Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3LurwE3   I use the Sacred Traveler deck all the time and almost every month.   The card I chose was: Mystic Healer- Healing energy flows through you.    Deeper meaning: You are a healing force, even if you are just becoming aware of this or aren't sure how to use your healing abilities. For healing to occur in outward relationships, it must first happen within yourself. You, my friend, do have the ability to heal within yourself. Use the art and gift of visualization and tap into deeper trust and faith that all is working out for your highest good. What is being revealed is here to be healed.     The Cosmic Journey Oracle Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3TlgTFy Yanik Silver was on my podcast earlier last year, and I absolutely love his Cosmic Journal and Cosmic Journey Oracle cards. There are lots of excellent questions that will prompt deeper reflection and inner awareness.  The first card I chose: #44 - Words Create Your World Deeper meaning: First off, this is the title of a chapter in my book, Get a PhD in YOU. I believe this to my core. Your words are the magic wand in your life. Get present, slow down, and notice what you're saying to others and yourself. Be mindful and careful with your words, my friend. They create the life you are living now and in the future.    The second card I chose: #39- Your Effortless Effort is Fully Required   Deeper Meaning: Do your best AND go with the flow. This one spoke deeply to me, especially as a recovering overachiever. Stop pushing and trying to make things happen. Tap into the Universe's balanced yin/yang energy, move into harmony with your effort, and use effortless effort to manifest your greatest desires.            I'd love to hear your thoughts after listening to this episode. I had so much fun doing this for you and would love to know if it resonated with you and if you'd like me to do more intuitive guided episodes with oracle cards.

Meet Rabbi David Aaron Rabbi David Aaron is a spiritual teacher who has invested over 4 decades delving into life's BIGGEST question marks and sharing his life-changing wisdom and insights with adults and young adults. He has emerged as the ‘God expert'  simply because he has dared to ask and answer the most difficult questions that he/ALL people have and/or struggle with about God's existence and their own. And while the name ‘God' appears on the cover of almost all his books, he doesn't believe in ‘God' – not in the popular sense of that word, which leaves the Divine entirely misunderstood. Rabbi Aaron has authored several books, including Endless Light, Seeing G-d, Love is My Religion, The Secret Life of G-d, Inviting G-d In, Living a Joyous Life, and The God Powered Life.  His books have attracted national media attention, including Larry King Live and E! Entertainment. He lives in Jerusalem with his wife, Chana, and seven children.    The Meaning of Kabbalah Just like the Law of Attraction, Kabbalah is about the Law of Reception and the teachings that all good is here now and always. The problem is that we don't know how to get reception. Rabbi Aaron shares that we're like radios, and we have to engineer our life to be receptive to hearing God and Good. The most important things in life are not things. Experiencing love, peace, good, and God are always here and available to everyone. And remember, if you don't vibe with the word God, just substitute the word Good.    Endless Light Rabbi Aaron shared more deeply about the title of his book, Endless Light, and how we don't see light — light allows us to see. God is like the light that allows us to see what's there. God is a light, even though you can't see God. It's not about ‘seeing is believing', rather, it's about ‘believing is seeing'. Not seeing is actually believing. What's most important is to learn to live from the light of God and see opportunities to be of greater service. We're here to love and be of service to others.   The 4 Steps to Love Love, by definition, means you don't have to be worthy to receive it, although many of us get this backward. If you deserve love, it's not a gift – it's a payment. Love is a gift and is not a business model. What's happening is that we don't have clarity on what we're here to receive. The greatest gift is our presence and being able to truly and fully be there for and with others, be it our partner, family member, or friend. In truth, we're all made of love – that's why we're here. Love is about giving AND also receiving.    Rabbi Aaron shared what he calls the 4 ingredients of love: Create space for someone else and move yourself out of the center.  Respect and honor that the other person is not you and is different from you. Don't try to make them be like you.  To give of yourself to another person is giving your presence so they can be seen and heard. Allow your partner to do the same with you and allow space to receive love.    Remember that intimacy is ‘into-me-I-see'...it's about learning to be comfortable with receiving love.   A beautiful quote:  ‘We're all pieces of love.'   Accessing Your Personal Power All the personal power within you is not from you. You couldn't turn your heart off for 30 seconds because the power of your beating heart doesn't come from you. Tap into and connect with the power that is beating your heart. Get to know this power that is loving and guiding you. Meditating on your pulse is a great way to access your personal power and feel a deep connection to the miracle that is you. Feel your pulse with your finger. Notice how your pulse is happening without you giving it directions. Meditate on the marvel and mystery that every heartbeat is a gift because all of you is a gift.    How To Really Be Happy The way to true happiness is through loving yourself. When you love yourself, you're happier and are able to spread happiness to others. As Rabbi Aaron said, it's not the things that will bring you happiness. It's about being yourself, living your service, and expressing the happiness that comes from living a life that is about being of service to others.    Holy Selfishness Holy Selfishness is about knowing that we intrinsically need each other and that the aim is to be loving to others. Love is actually a good selfishness. The goal is to act from a place of wholeness and to focus on being holy, or ‘wholly,' as you are part of a greater whole. This is holy wholeness.  Love is a good selfishness because it means together we honor and acknowledge the shared one greater self. Kabbalah teaches that we're all emanating from one root self. Even though we are individual sparks of the Divine, we are also of one field of consciousness, one soul, and one self of the Universe.    As always, my friend, take what you like and leave the rest. I hope this conversation reminds you of your infinite goodness, your connection to an all-loving force, and that you're inherently worthy of real love, peace, and joy.       Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

Meet Amy Porterfield Amy Porterfield is an ex–corporate girl turned online marketing expert and CEO of a multimillion-dollar business. During her corporate days, Amy worked with mega-brands like Harley-Davidson and Peak Performance Coach Tony Robbins. After one fateful boardroom meeting and witnessing the lifestyle, financial, and work freedom an online business has to offer, Amy developed her nine-to-five exit plan and never looked back. Amy has helped hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs turn in their two weeks' notice and trade burnout for freedom, income, and impact through her best-selling courses and top-ranked marketing podcast Online Marketing Made Easy. Amy's action-by-action teaching style provides aspiring business owners with the tools they need to bypass the overwhelm and build a business they love. Amy is also the bestselling author of Two Weeks Notice: Find The Courage To Quit Your Job, Make More Money, Work Where You Want, and Change The World. Amy empowers women across the globe to take their futures into their own hands and find professional autonomy, independence, achievement, and success far beyond what a corporate glass ceiling would traditionally allow.

Her company has twice been awarded the Inc. 5000 Award as one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the U.S. today, she runs her growing business from Nashville, Tennessee, where she lives with her husband, Hobie, and their Labradoodle, Scout. Learn more at AmyPorterfield.com.   Should You Become An Entrepreneur? This is a question Amy and I both get often, and I loved her answer. While becoming an entrepreneur is not for everyone, you'll know it's for you if you have a calling in your heart. The only way to really know if you're an entrepreneur is if you have a strong desire to do it. If it's in your heart, you will figure it out. Amy shared so many nuggets of wisdom that I only wish I had years ago when I started my own business. So, whether you're already an entrepreneur, thinking about going for it, or just sitting with the idea of doing something on your own, this conversation is the key that will unlock how to move forward.    Know Your ‘You-est You' Factor Before getting started, you'll want to first think about what kind of lifestyle you'd like to create. Amy shared that her first two years were a disaster because she was so burned out from hustling without a clear plan about what she wanted her lifestyle to feel and look like. You want to make sure to create a business that is authentically you and on your terms. That is suited for your ‘You-est You'. The best way to do this is to get crystal clear about your why. Knowing your why will help you stay connected and committed to your greater desire to have your own business when the going can get tough.    You Aren't For Everyone And That's Ok You're not for everyone, and that's a good thing! We dove into this idea that you can't make everyone like you or be for you in business (and in general). What you can do is laser into who you want to serve and why. If you keep your focus too broad, no one will find you. The magic comes from getting clear about who you're speaking to, serving, and ensuring everything you do and say is directed to that person. Looking around and comparing yourself to others in your space can be easy. Don't do it! I loved Amy's advice to put on your blinders (like you would with a racehorse) and run your own race. Keep coming back to your why and if you find yourself caught up in envy or jealousy, ask yourself what they have that you want and create a plan.    What matters is not necessarily having the confidence (this comes with time) to start a business, but having the courage to take a leap of faith and course correct when needed. My friend, it's ok to do it scared, anxious, and with blinders on!   How To Become a Content Queen Amy suggests finding one platform and focusing there. For example, choose to do a podcast, or a YouTube channel, write a blog, and find ways to create content on the regular. As with everything else, tap into what feels most aligned for you and where you want to spend your time and energy sharing wisdom and content.    Why You Must Build an Email List Here's the thing about building an email list…most people wait to start building one but find it's the one thing they wish they had started earlier. Amy shared that even with her robust and engaged email list, she wishes she had started building it earlier. Social media is a great tool to pull in leads, but in the end, you'll want to put your energy towards building an email list that adds value and creates engagement. Social media rules always change (think Facebook algorithms and Twitter ownership), but your email list will always be something you have domain over. The goal is to pique interest and nurture your community with helpful content and products that will be of service.    The real secret to building an email list is to take action and get started wherever you are. No list is too small. The key is genuine engagement.     Let's Talk Money and Overcoming Money Anxiety It's important to get clear on your finances. It can be terrifying to leave a paycheck, so you'll want to start planning out what you need to make to pay your bills, where you can get scrappy and clarify your financial goals. Many let the fear of finances hold them back, but, in truth, you're not as safe as you might think in your job. A good way to plan your exit date is to determine when you'll have enough savings and prudent reserves saved up before you leave. Remember, you get to determine what amount of money makes you feel comfortable leaving and what lifestyle you want to have. A good way to do this is to reverse engineer your expenses, lifestyle, and how you want to live – especially during your first year in business.    And remember, my friend, all of this takes immense courage. So do what you need to connect with others who are supportive, make a plan, take a leap of faith, and go for it. Your future self will thank you when you have the freedom to live life as you desire, make money doing what you love, and help the world in a bigger way.            Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

Meet Esther Blum Esther Blum is an Integrative Dietitian and Menopause Expert. In the past 27 years, she has helped thousands of women master menopause through nutrition, hormones, and self-advocacy.  Esther is the bestselling author of See ya later, Ovulator, Cavewomen Don't Get Fat, Eat, Drink and Be Gorgeous, Secrets of Gorgeous, and The Eat, Drink, and Be Gorgeous Project. Known as Gwyneth Paltrow's menopause mentor and by Forbes for helping women thrive through menopause, Esther was also voted Best Nutritionist by Manhattan Magazine. She has appeared on the Today Show, ABC-TV, and Good Day NY and is frequently quoted in goop, Well + Good, Forbes, Time Magazine, The New York Post, The Los Angeles Times, In Style, Bazaar, Self, Fitness, Marie Claire, and Cosmo.     What Is Menopause? Ah, the ‘big pause'...as some might call it. As a female moving into the next phase of perimenopause, I've been rather disappointed with the lack of information shared during routine ob-gyn visits and decided to do some in-depth research. This brought me to Esther's healing work with thousands of women in and out of menopause. So, we dove all into menopause — what it is, ways to treat it, and feel better than ever. Put on your seatbelt, my friend, there's a lot of ground to cover, and as always, take what you like and leave the rest.   Menopause is a hormone deficiency that happens naturally for women as they start making fewer reproductive hormones. Both menstruation and fertility declines typically with women in their early to late 40s.      What Are Menopause Symptoms? Symptoms can, of course, vary from woman to woman. The good news is that 80% of the solution for menopausal symptoms can be changed and altered with lifestyle. Here's a listing of typical symptoms many women face: periods can worsen, meno-rage (what Esther refers to as excess anger and rage), insomnia and sleep issues, anxiety, depression, irregular heartbeat, breast tenderness, brain fog, vaginal dryness, lowered libido and lighter or missed periods. If you're feeling something is off, Esther urges you to trust yourself. You know your body and honor your own inner intuition!     How To Embrace and Overcome Menopause One of the biggest factors in managing and even overcoming menopausal symptoms is due to lifestyle habits like the foods you're eating, the exercise you're doing, and the sleep you're getting. Esther's book goes into much greater detail; however, I'm going to break this down into those three categories to help give you an overview and more clarity.   Nutrition You're going to need way more protein than ever before. Esther recommends 150 grams of protein each day. A good place to start is with 30 grams of protein at each meal (which is about 4 - 6 oz/meal). You want to keep your blood sugar stable, which protein and a small amount of carbohydrates can do. Contrary to what you might have thought, eating carbs at dinner is a good idea (for example, 1 - 1 ½ cups of rice or quinoa), which will help bump up your insulin and tamper your cortisol.    Exercise Contrary to the exercise many of us do in our 20s and 30s, you'll want to switch up your exercise routine to help support your adrenals. This means less ‘HIIT' (high-intensity interval training) method training and more walks. Walking outside can help reset your circadian rhythm and give you a great dose of vitamin D. Using weights, with enough rest in between sets, will also help with bone density loss.    Sleep It takes 8 weeks to reshape your nervous system. Engaging in deep breathing, meditation, or yoga nidra before bed is an excellent way to rewire your fight or flight system. This takes time, so don't give up if you don't notice results right away with your sleep.   What Are The Options? Esther shares research in greater depth in her book; however, we did discuss healthy options to help with symptoms and support your body during these hormonal changes. All of these suggestions are FDA-approved and considered bio-identical hormones, which are most like your own hormones. A great way to test your hormone levels, in addition to a hormone blood test, is to take what's called the DUTCH (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) test. Esther and other functional medical professionals can guide you so you're not going through perimenopause and menopause alone.    You can get a list of Esther's ‘Happy Hormone Cocktail List' that she mentioned here: https://estherblum.com/cocktail/ref/5   Menopause Redefined  In Asian cultures, it's also known as ‘The Second Spring.' I love this definition because of the focus on a second chance to bloom into your most true self. Perhaps this is the time in your life when you lose your filter, own your voice, and end an era of ‘people pleasing'. You've not tethered to rules around your cycle anymore, and perhaps it's a time to embrace taking exquisite care of yourself.   Some empowering questions to ask yourself might be: ‘What do I really want?', ‘Who do I want to surround myself with?' and ‘How do I want to feel?'. This is a time to cut out all the B.S. and honor your ‘You-est You'!      Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?   If you are feeling a strong urge to help other big-hearted empaths get unstuck and design their best life, you've got to check out my Life Designer Coach Academy.

Meet Cheryl Bailey Cheryl Bailey is the founder of Grit and Grace Meditation. She recently became a Certified Life Designer® Coach in Julie Reisler's certification program. Cheryl's passion for life coaching began years ago when she personally worked through some of the most tumultuous times in her life.   She realized that the journey of life doesn't come with a roadmap, and we all experience twists and turns, highs and lows, and there is never a perfect outcome. The work that they did together was life-altering, and she knew one day, she wanted to be able to hold space and co-create with other women on that same level. Today, Cheryl is a Certified Life Designer Coach, 200 Hour RYT, 200 Hour Certified Mindfulness Meditation Instructor, Certified Conscious Sound Practitioner, a 40- hour Certified Yoga Nidra Instructor, a Certified Hibiscus Moon Crystal Practitioner, and an Usui Level II Reiki Practitioner. Cheryl also co-facilitates transformational Self-Love Women's Retreats in Sedona and Costa Rica. Cheryl lives with her husband in magical Sedona. You can learn more about Cheryl by visiting gritandgracemeditation.com.   An Unlikely Healing Path After a string of tragedies, Cheryl was taught that control was merely an illusion. Her first marriage of 17 years ended in a nasty divorce. Later, when she found love again, she lost her second husband to colon cancer. And within a few months of his passing, Hurricane Sandy rendered her homeless. Life truly pulled the rug out from under her. She fought to keep going under the weight of constant outer and inner turmoil. She knew there was another way to live, but that didn't happen until she began to fully surrender to something greater than herself. It was through various holistic and wellness practices that she found grace for herself. She realized that she didn't need to strive for perfection, and it was okay to give herself the time and space to just “be.” She reconnected with her higher power and trusted God to guide her through all of life's ups and downs and ins and outs. This is when a sense of inner peace and self-awareness blossomed within, and where she found her true calling within sound healing, meditation and mindfulness, yoga, and spiritual coaching.   The Healing Power of Being a Spiritual Coach Cheryl wanted to make a bigger impact by learning how to help guide women back to their truest selves and deeper desires. She knew doing this would require getting the training and acquiring the skills to support women in a bigger way. In the Life Designer® Coach Certification program, she learned how to go from her head to her heart and help others do the same. This process of letting go of the linear, left brain into what's possible in the creative right brain helped Cheryl to let go of her own perfectionistic tendencies and help others through her coaching skills. Much of coaching is learning how to help others to let their ego get out of the way, and of course, practicing the coaching competencies helped Cheryl to do this from within. Today, Cheryl coaches clients from all backgrounds and infuses her healing arts background and life design coaching in her retreats and programs.    Self-love Isn't Selfish You can not give from an empty cup. Cheryl learned the hard way as a recovering perfectionist that the most loving thing you can do is to fill yourself up and take exquisite loving care of your mind and body. Sometimes that means doing things that others might not like. This is where grit, grace, and compassion come in. You must find the inner strength to follow what's true for you, regardless of what others think. We must remove the blinders and refuel ourselves with love to see and feel the Divine.   The Most Important Question To Ask Yourself Cheryl, like many of us, wasn't taught to herself what she really wanted. Only after tragedy and deep soul searching did she start to ask the important question, ‘Who am I, really?' What followed was the question, ‘How can I be of service?'. Listening more deeply to her heart, she realized her desire was to share her gifts with others. So, after receiving the signs from the Universe, she left her successful career in higher education to pursue a life she was truly passionate about. After being inspired by her own unexpected challenges and experiences, she realized her journey was indeed her destination. Be sure to ask yourself regularly, ‘Who am I, really, and how can I be of maximum service?' Get quiet, listen to your inner guidance, and be prepared to take courageous action toward your vision.         Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?   If you are feeling a strong urge to help other big-hearted empaths get unstuck and design their best life, you've got to check out my Life Designer Coach Academy.

Remember, you are a spiritual being having a human experience. Think of yourself as a radio station with a dial. The question really is, from what frequency or radio station are you channeling? If you want to channel your spiritual gifts and experience more joy and freedom, you must start tuning your inner frequency and radio dial to the emotional state of joy and freedom. We can't emit what we don't feel. Emotions are our guidance and will always tell you where you vibrate and what radio station you're tuned into. If you want to channel wisdom from the higher realms of greater intelligence and love, you'll want to focus your energy on experiencing this kind of unconditional love for yourself and learn to quiet your mind. It all comes down to how you feel and how you prioritize how you feel, as well as having a peaceful mind. I've discussed this in many of my past interviews with experts like Alan Cohen, Neale Donald Walsh, Marci Shimoff, and Matt Kahn. You might ask yourself how you prioritize self-care and spiritual connection (in whatever way that resonates for you) and ways to increase time for quiet reflection, mindfulness, and being heart-centered with yourself.     The Powerful Study That Proves Spiritual Connection  I shared a story in the second year of my graduate program at Maryland University of Integrative Health, where my professor conducted a study that is still glowing my mind. After we came back from our lunch break, she had us taste red and orange peppers from two different plates. They looked the same but tasted quite different. The first plate, labeled A, tasted bitter and sour. The second plate, labeled B, tasted sweet and delicious. When asked why we thought there was such a difference, students shouted out all kinds of answers. “The second plate are organic peppers,” “The sweeter peppers are from a local farm,” and “The sour peppers are GMO from a standard grocery store.” Our teacher answered ‘no' to every possible reason, which stumped my classmates and me. Then she pulled up a slide that forever changed my life. She shared Dr. Masaru Emoto's studies and findings from his book, ‘Hidden Messages From Water'. Dr. Emoto spent years studying the implications of consciousness on the molecular structure of water. In short, he proved that the molecules change in water depending on your energy, consciousness, and way of speaking to the water. When he yelled and screamed profanity at the water, he could see after studying the frozen sample that it looked like jagged edges. However, when he was loving, kind, and encouraging to the water, he saw under the microscope how the water sample looked like a snowflake or beautiful symmetrical pattern. Our professor had done something similar. She had yelled and screamed at one plate of peppers (sample A) and had lovingly and kindly spoken to the other plate of peppers (sample B). Without knowing any of this beforehand, every single one of us could taste the difference between her angry versus loving words. We had experienced what Dr. Emoto showed throughout his water studies. If you think this sounds too ‘Woo-Woo', go read the book ‘Hidden Messages of Water' or google Dr. Emoto's work. It will glow your mind too.      How Spirituality Can Heal The World Spirituality is the connection to all things and the realization of our oneness. It transcends religion, race, sexual orientation, and gender. Spirituality is the golden thread that links every living being (human, animal, plant) together regardless of views, beliefs, or life experiences. When you remember and connect to the interconnectedness and unique divine aspect of yourself (and everyone), you can change your life view from fear and disconnection to appreciation, forgiveness, love, and kindness. As each of us aims to heal our own mind of fear and lack and reclaim our divine birthright of goodness and light, we connect more deeply to our higher self, or the soul self, that is always with you in the past, present, and future, guiding you to what's for your best. This spiritual connection to your higher self allows you to become your ‘You-est You'. Imagine a world full of human beings living and acting from a deeper spiritual connectedness about compassion, understanding, love, hope, and what is possible in healing. We all have the ability to start this healing right now, and it starts with you and me.      Why You Should Get A Spiritual Coaching Certification I didn't realize it, but when I worked with a coach years ago who helped me change my life trajectory, I not only transformed my thoughts and beliefs, but also my connection to God. This profound spiritual experience was just the beginning of what would continue to grow through the modality of coaching. I have seen firsthand the inherent power of coaching and how this career is truly about helping people to connect to their divinity and higher self. When trained properly, you'll learn how to quickly see others' gifts, skills, and strengths without even intending to. The biggest gift in getting a spiritual coaching certification is the transformation of your relationship with yourself. Suppose you're on the fence or have considered getting a coaching certification to learn the modality and framework and to heal your relationship with yourself. In that case, I encourage you to throw your hat over the fence and go for it. You'll never be the same person again, and your future self will thank you. Doors are open until March 10th, and you can enroll now at juliereisler.com/certification.      Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

Meet Rev. Frances Fayden Rev. Frances Fayden is an Interfaith Minister, Author, Intuitive Energy Coach for Conscious Women Entrepreneurs, and the Magnify Your Miracles podcast host. A master intuitive healer and metaphysical coach, Frances is fluent in the language of the human energy field known as the chakra system and can quickly translate energetic information to help her clients heal & transform.  In 2012, Frances had a profound encounter with Mother Mary, which changed the direction of her life and awakened her life's purpose. She has been channeling messages from Mother Mary ever since.  She loves working with Highly Sensitive Souls who have a big vision and mission yet are seeking validation and personal guidance with their next steps. Frances says, “By incorporating Mother Mary's guidance along with feedback from your own energy field, and then applying the Universal Laws of Manifestation, miracles can occur.”  She is the author of the books Meditation is Friendship with God and How to Recognize God. Her passion is connecting women to the unconditional love of the Divine and then teaching them how to magnify that connection, which is the key to Magnifying Your Miracles.   Oh, my friend, I hope you take the time to listen to this whole conversation as energy is part of everything in your life. And I mean everything. You and I are made up of energy. Our thoughts, actions, feelings, emotions, and beliefs are all made of energy. Manifestation is really the divine process of taking thoughts, emotions, and beliefs (as you know, all energy) and creating a physical, tangible, material experience or reality (all energy).      Trusting Your Energy First and foremost, you need to learn to trust your energy. This is not as easy as it sounds since so many of us are taught to override our feelings and intuition so that we can fit in, please others, or do the ‘right thing.' We learn early on to dismiss the messages from our own energy and body. Being a good steward of your energy and caring for yourself is not ‘woo-woo.' It's practical and can keep you healthy, vibrant, and grounded. It all starts with taking responsibility for your energy and the energy you are bringing into all aspects of your life.      Taking Care of Your Energy Part of taking care of your energy is doing loving things for yourself, especially your body. You'll want to think about how you want to feel. If you're not sure what to do to take care of your energy, start with these three steps: Keep it simple - start with your body and ask yourself the following questions: ‘How does this experience, person, or situation make me feel? Do I feel better or worse? Journal and reflect on what you notice when you ask yourself these questions. Check in with yourself on an ongoing basis and ask yourself, ‘How did that feel?' You'll soon start to notice patterns.      Your Chakras and Your Energy Think of your chakras (in Sanskrit, this is translated as your ‘energy wheels') as little databases. They are always recording information and storing what happened. This database can easily go offline (especially in our western, faced-paced society) when you feel angry, overwhelmed, stressed, or unsafe. One of the best ways to restore your life force energy and chakras is through forgiveness and making sure you feel safe (and be sure to put yourself on the top of the list of people to forgive).      We Could All Lighten Up I don't know about you, but I easily get so serious about life. Rev. Frances talks all about the importance of lightening up. Bring in the element of fun and joy. An example might be pulling oracle cards for the new and full moon. Notice if these activities fill your bucket and nourish you; if so, keep adding energizing and revitalizing practices.      Why Your Energy Matters The bottom line is that you want to make sure your energy rejuvenates you, not depletes you. This means keen attention and presence to how you're feeling. All is in your energy, and you're affected so much more than you might realize. Be sure to work on your level of presence and mindful awareness so you can begin to tune in and notice your energy and how to keep it healthy and clear.    One of my favorite takeaways: Our spiritual path is learning how to honor our energy. If you take care of your energy, your energy will take care of you.    To learn more about Rev. Frances Fayden and her ‘Ask Your Energy' coaching and support, visit https://francesfayden.com/work-with-me/.           Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

Meet Gina Casbarro   Gina Casbarro is a certified Life Designer® coach and feng shui expert who empowers her clients to blaze their own paths and design the life and space of their dreams. Gina's passion for coaching began as a manager at lululemon. She spent more than eight years there, coaching hundreds of people to develop as leaders and crush their goals. Her love of nature, symbolism, and intuition led her to feng shui. She now weaves these passions together to support her clients in aligning their mindset, lifestyle, and their environment with their truest goals and values. Gina also hosts the podcast “Follow your Spark,” which she began on a year-long road trip around the USA and beyond, interviewing people all over the world on what it looks like to create a life you love. With all of her incredible coaching and leadership experience, Gina is also the lead Mentor Coach for my Life Designer® Coach Academy certification program.   Pursuing Your Dream Gina worked as a leader in a corporate setting that she liked but wasn't quite aligned with her greater passions and purpose. She became a Feng Shui expert and got into coaching with a well-known personal development program, and decided to start her business on the side to help others design their space to match their vision and values.   Redefining Success Like many of us, Gina used to struggle with mind drama that caused much suffering and a feeling of discontent and worry. Gina realized the importance of personal growth in working through these inner beliefs. She started to think and act in new ways that led to more joy, peace, and inner calm. We talked about redefining success from mere stats, numbers, dollars, and followers or needing outside forces to validate you to an inherent sense of value no matter what financial number you bring in or how many clients you have. I love this new definition and hope it inspires you, my friend.    Why Become A Coach While Gina had leadership skills and had coached within Lululemon and Landmark education (a large personal development program where we had met and I had coached Gina), she could feel that something was missing. Gina wanted to know the exact tools, methodology, framework, and techniques to help others get out of their own way and to find greater joy in life. Gina joined the Life Designer® Coach Academy in 2020 and became a certified life coach within my program. I could see how these classes and the community were helping her to dig deeper into her own intuition and trust herself. Now fully on her own as a Life Designer® and Feng Shui expert, Gina is using her skills and heart to help others, coach, teach and mentor the students in the upcoming cohort of my life coach certification program.    Owning Your Worthiness We also talked a lot about worthiness and money blocks, as it relates to stepping into a greater identity and making a larger impact. Like any muscle, worthiness is an important muscle to build. It's not that you need to do anything to become worthy, it's about building the muscle to remember and acknowledge your worthiness. This has taken Gina time, and she shares a few questions to ask yourself that can flip the script and remind you of your inherent worthiness and value. Here are a few of the questions we discussed: Why am I capable of doing this? What's the value I bring here? Why is my work so valuable?   Overcoming Money Blocks Unlike other professions, coaching is one that still operates in a bit of a ‘wild west' realm. There is a huge discrepancy between what coaches charge and make. The one thing that comes up for many coaches is blocks around money and charging for services, especially if this feels like something you'd do for free because you love it so much. Side note, if you feel like this is something you'd do for free, that is a great indication that you're meant to coach and help others. Gina shared that what has helped her is creating offerings that cause the least amount of drama in her life and feel good in her body and energy.    It's All About This… Most importantly is that you learn to trust that you're where you're meant to be. Period. Where you are can be full of fertilizer for where you want to be.    Learn more about Gina at https://juliereisler.com/certifiedcoaches or https://ginacasbarro.com/        Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?

Meet  Ashley Bernardi Ashley Bernardi is the founder of powerhouse media relations firm Nardi Media, where she works with corporations, brands, entrepreneurs, and nonprofits to obtain high-profile placements in broadcast, print, and online media. Trained as a journalist at CBS News, nationally syndicated program energyNOW! on Bloomberg, and Washington Post Live, she has a natural ear for a story and a journalist's passion for research. The traumatic death of her father at a young age and diagnosis of Lyme Disease and postpartum depression after the birth of her third child deepened her passion for health, wellness, and spirituality and taught her how to access her own authentic power to heal her life. She is a certified Life Designer®, and received her certificate in The Science of Well-Being from Yale University. Ashley, the oldest child in a proud military family, was born in Schweinfurt, Germany, and has lived and worked in New York City and Washington, D.C.  She is the author of the award-winning book Authentic Power: Give Yourself Permission to Feel.   Join in for a powerful conversation with my very dear friend, Ashley Bernardi, who also happens to be a genius at publicity and life design coaching. Ashley shares very vulnerably about her own traumatic experience of her father having a heart attack in front of her family at age 11 and how it took years to fully process her emotions and heal from the inside out.    Ashley's motivation today is to help as many individuals as possible to feel, heal and reclaim their voice and authentic power through speaking and sharing your message. This is a must-listen if you are still processing past trauma or want support to process your emotions.     The Body Remembers Trauma Ashley didn't realize how her trauma impacted her sense of self and health. As a young girl, she loved to dance, be joyful, believed in magic, and, most importantly, herself. After the tragic loss of her father, she was told to act like all was normal and go back to her life as though nothing had happened. She never gave herself permission to grieve and kept the trauma buried deep within. Ashley numbed out by drinking and throwing herself into work and coped through people pleasing. It wasn't until years later, when she was knocked on her butt with a major health crisis, that she saw the connection between her body and holding on to the trauma.     Turning A Health Crisis Into a Gift After seeing 30 doctors from experiencing excruciating deterioration and pain, Ashley was finally referred to a physician who was able to diagnose her with Lyme disease. She started crawling back to herself and, for the first time, had the time and space to feel her feelings. This is when the healing happened, and she realized the power of processing her emotions and tapping into her authentic inner power and intuition.    A reminder to you, my friend, you can get unshackled from your fear of feeling challenging emotions and heal whatever trauma is in your past!   Your Authentic Power is Your Intuition Trust is the key. It's about learning to trust yourself, your body, and your intuition. Since her journey back to full health, Ashley has focused on how to reclaim her voice and help others to do so too. One of my favorite quotes was, ‘When I pay attention to my intuition, magic happens.' Ashley has since reclaimed her magic and is passionate about being a support to anyone who wants to reconnect to their own inner magic.    Ok, and we did get a little (what you might call) ‘woo.' One tool that has helped Ashley build a relationship with her father across the veil is through sacred writing. This is where you use journaling to talk to your passed loved ones by asking a question and inviting them to connect in. You then allow yourself to write without editing whatever comes up on the page. Today, Ashley has a beautiful relationship with her father, even though he is on the other side and not here physically.    Reclaiming Your Voice as a Life Coach In addition to being an award-winning journalist and publicity maven, Ashley went back to train as a life design coach in my Life Designer® Coach Academy, where she discovered her soul's great calling. Today, Ashley is all about helping you to get unstuck to find your voice and then share it with the world through the media and other platforms.

Now is your time!   Having navigated midlife changes and shifts, Kathy offers guidance and compassion to women asking themselves, “Is this it?” or “What's next?”. She enjoys sharing the tools of her growth with her clients and peers. With certifications in Life Designer Coaching, Thought Coaching, Quantum Time Technique, and Mindfulness Instruction, Kathy coaches women to discover their midlife magic through conscious healing and self-discovery.    A Career Change at 40 Most of us are not raised in a society that values or gets excited about midlife. What started as a time in Kathy's mid 30's where she felt disconnected, unhappy, and lost ended up being one of the biggest gifts and wake-up calls. Maybe you can relate? Kathy, a mom of 4 boys, felt like she was walking on one of those walking ramps at the airport that wouldn't stop. She felt a lack of joy and excitement; worse off, she felt incredible shame and guilt for feeling this way when nothing was "wrong." Kathy was using and abusing alcohol, food, and shopping, all the while trying to fill a void that can't be filled with stuff. She realized she was lonely and despondent and found herself asking a big question that woke her up. Once becoming aware of her negative beliefs and stories, she realized that these could be the best years of her life. That midlife could be magical and a blessing, especially if ushered in an empowering and energizing way.     The Big Question That Can Lead to Your Breakthrough The question that Kathy sat with was, 'Is this it?' It's a question I think most of us at some point ponder and stay up at night wondering about. It's often the precursor to a wake-up call that, if treated with care, compassion, and sacred attention, can lead to a transformative pivot. This is what happened for Kathy. She realized in working with coaches and healers that there was nothing wrong, she had misplaced her soul in life, and it was time to reclaim it. Have you felt like you've misplaced your soul? Or perhaps, it feels like your greater soul purpose feels far away, murky and unclear? If so, my friend, read on and be sure to listen to this entire interview.   How Life Coaching Changed Kathy's Life Kathy realized that she wanted to connect more deeply to her soul's purpose, passion, and meaning, and in wanting to explore this further, she found a coach who helped her to finally see her soul. I love what Kathy said about coaching: "It's someone who holds a flashlight for you so you can see into your soul." Kathy started to get curious about how her deeper wisdom could help guide her both in her own life and in helping other women find meaning. She realized that becoming a certified life coach would be a gift for herself and to all those she's here to serve. Realizing the power of coaching, both in being coached and becoming one, helped Kathy to let go of the excess alcohol, food, and shopping. She found what she had been looking for all along; her own inner wisdom -- which is what we call your 'You-est You'.      Why You Must Trust Your Intuition Trusting your intuition can take massive courage, patience, and practice. Kathy talked about how her intuition has now become her best friend. Kathy joined the Life Designer® Coach Academy certification program because of the sacred coach structure that focused on intuition and trusting your heart intelligence. What she's realized is that she can trust herself fully and that when you trust yourself at the deepest left, you are in flow with the Universe and open to being led in ways that are beyond your wildest imagination. Kathy leads with her intuition and has helped many to access and have faith in their inner guidance.     My favorite takeaways:  Make your inner wisdom your bestie! Befriend your intuition and listen carefully to her.  Nothing is missing; you have just misplaced your connection to your soul and higher self. She is always with you whenever you are ready. Coaching is holding a flashlight up for someone else so they can see their soul and truest self.    To learn more about Kathy and her work, go to www.kathybatista.com and follow Kathy on Instagram and Facebook @coachkathybatista.            Looking To Help Others Know Who They Are and Design Their Best Life?   If you are feeling a strong urge to help other big-hearted empaths get unstuck and design their best life, you've got to check out my Life Designer Coach Academy.
