Hey, hey, everyone.  00:45 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Welcome to the VO Boss. Now let's welcome your host, Anne Ganguzza. Hey, hey everyone. Welcome to the VO Boss podcast and the Real Boss series. I'm here with my good friend, Tom Dheere. Hey, Tom, how are you?  00:55 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) I am good, how are you?  00:58 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) I'm doing good, but I'll tell you what. Social media is kind of a mess lately, isn't it?  01:04 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Oh my God, yeah it, oh my God, yeah. Oh my God, to say the least, it has been insane the past couple of weeks.  01:10 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Oh, TikTok shutting down people fleeing off platforms. It's been insane and I think something that, as business owners, we've used for years right to promote our businesses is now somewhat becoming unstable and unpredictable, and I think we should chat about this. What can we do to kind of counteract?  01:31 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) that that's a great question. Well, I will say that literally this morning on Facebook, I saw two friends of mine who run Facebook voiceover groups who basically posted the same exact post, which was we know a lot of you are leaving Facebook right now. It's gotten very politically charged, it's gotten very toxic. You've all mentioned that how your feeds are changing and it's just getting really, really weird. And they both did the same thing in that they said we will continue to be loving and supporting of all voice actors, regardless of your affiliation, regardless of what's going on in the outside world. And there was a chorus of support and concern at the same time.  02:08 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Well, I think the community that we feel that we've established on these platforms is, and now the platforms are unstable or toxic. And so now our community because we work independently and our community has been online for all these years and now, all of a sudden, it's just become a place where maybe not everybody wants to hang out anymore.  02:28 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Yeah, there's four platforms which everybody seems to be sharing the most concern about Facebook, instagram, because those are both owned by the same company Meta Twitter, now known as X, which has been a point of concern for a couple of years now, since it was purchased. As X, which has been a point of concern for a couple of years now since it was purchased, and, like you just said, tiktok, because of the concerns that have been expressed and the affiliation that it has and the fact that it went down for less than 24 hours and then it was rescued.  02:57 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) It was like a mass hysteria. Well, you know what else? It wasn't just TikTok, it was anything owned by TikTok, which I was aware, but I kind of forgot. I use CapCut, which is the video editing program, and I spent a considerable amount of time like learning it and all of a sudden my CapCut was gone and I'm like, oh no, I guess I need a new video app.  03:15 It was kind of good in a way, so that we all could step back and say, all right, let's not put the proverbial all our eggs in one basket, like we've always been saying about pay-to-plays. Right, you don't want to put all of your eggs in one basket with pay-to-plays. That can't be your only way to make income, and social media may not be the only way that we can have community. So let's talk, tom, about how we might be able to incorporate community and also incorporate. Let's say how are we going to market to our potential clients? What can we do to create a sense of community? And I mean my first idea that comes to mind is let's go back to old school, right? Let's create a mailing list, right? That's something that we own. We're not dependent upon a social media platform that we don't own. We own our own lists.  03:59 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Yes, when it comes to that, both social media and curating lists of potential, current and past clients both fall in the bucket of self-marketing. Having a social media presence, creating a sense of community, trying to interact with clients potentially that's a form of indirect or passive marketing. And then curating lists of clients cold calls, cold emails, newsletters those are all forms of direct or active marketing strategies. So both of them have their merits. But to your point, if the four, at least the four social media platforms that we just talked about, are unstable on both a cultural view, political, socioeconomic, logistical and technological view, because one of them was taken down and then went back up and goodness knows how many millions of dollars was potentially lost by the TikTok users who monetize? Yeah, absolutely.  04:54 So, this is creating uncertainty in the market, so looking for more stable practices is a very good idea. So, if you have been able to cultivate any relationships with any potential or current or past clients through social media platforms and I'm not just talking about Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok, which are the four that seem to be the most worrisome or in flux right now- Well, they're the largest.  05:18 They are also, interestingly enough, the largest, and Facebook's been around since what? 2004? Tiktok's pretty new and Twitter's been around since around 2008,. 9, 10. And Instagram is a few years after that, so some of these have been around for quite some time.  05:33 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Well, let's not forget about our old friend YouTube, which right now doesn't appear to be affected so much.  05:37 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) YouTube seems to be relatively stable and actually YouTube has been growing quite steadily.  05:49 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Youtube is the number one streaming platform. I think that that can be an option for people who are looking for community or trying to establish a community. I mean, really, what do you need to establish a community? There's community number one, just community for ourselves, right, because I need my colleagues. I need to be able to communicate with my colleagues and just kind of like just say hey, how's it going, or what are you doing, or just that kind of like at the water cooler sort of thing. And then we also need the community of where can we put ourselves out there, where can we promote and market our materials, if the online community is now threatened?  06:17 I think, I mean, I know, for many years, you know, social media has always been quote unquote, free, right, always been free, and the Internet's been free. And now, all of a sudden, there's a potential to maybe it not being there or free, or we don't know really what's going to happen. So we need to come up with our plan B. I think it's always important that, as business owners, we have a plan B or we have an alternate plan, so that we're not throwing all our eggs in one basket, right? What can that be, tom?  06:45 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) All right, so I have many answers.  06:47 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) I have many answers and ideas.  06:48 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Me too. Okay. So because there's a difference between fostering or being part of a community of fellow voice actors on a social media platform and looking to network with potential clients. Yes, despite all the weird that's been going on, linkedin is still the number one social media platform to be connecting with and developing relationships with clients.  07:10 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Except it's got spammy lately.  07:12 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) It's gotten very spammy and I've seen a lot more politics on my LinkedIn feed.  07:16 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Yes, but still it's better.  07:19 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) It's better. It may be a short-term consequence, it may re-stabilize I'm not sure, but LinkedIn is the number one source for that Twitter was a pretty good source for that too.  07:29 Yes, because also everybody knows that LinkedIn is the professional social media platform, whereas Facebook is the social. It's literally called the social network. It's a social platform. You can be social on a professional platform and you can be professional on a social platform. But all of these different social media platforms were designed with a specific intent in mind. Instagram was all about photos, and now it turned into video as well to compete with everybody else, and then YouTube made shorts to compete with Instagram reels and they're all watered down and they can all do all of those things, but what the thrust of it is?  08:00 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Before I forget, I do want to like throw in another social media platform that can generate community on a more professional level and that would be Substack.  08:08 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Yes, that's definitely one.  08:09 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) That's kind of like here. If you want to sign up and subscribe to my newsletter on a professional basis, there is Substack and I think that might be gaining popularity as well.  08:17 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Slack is another one that is gaining popularity. I have not ventured into Substack or Slack, but the one that I have been exploring lately when it comes to community is Discord.  08:29 Yep, absolutely what's interesting about Discord is what separates it from all of the other social media platforms is it doesn't have a feed. It doesn't have this torrential river of content that you can doom scroll through. For those of you who aren't familiar with Discord, discord has what are called servers. Think of them as like Facebook groups, except that they are generally invite only, though many of them have a public invite where they publicly promote a link or a QR code where you can scan and then you can potentially get admitted into that Discord server. There's usually a number of questions that you need to answer and a code of conduct that you need to adhere to before you'll be admitted into that individual server, and there are a ton of voiceover-related Discord servers. Many of the voiceover groups that you find on Facebook and all of the organizations that you're familiar with in voiceover groups that you find on Facebook and all of the organizations that you're familiar with in voiceover circles, have a Discord server, and within those servers are little threads or sub-servers.  09:33 Sub-threads yeah, Sub-threads where you can talk about whatever subject matter.  09:37 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Then it becomes like the old school Usenet. Oh my God, I'm showing my age. Do you know what I mean? Because people post about topics. It's like a forum yeah it becomes like a forum which Usenet? Do you know Usenet?  09:50 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Or am I even showing my age with you? Yeah, that was way back when I am showing my age with you.  09:53 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) It's Usenet back in the day, oh my goodness, yeah. Topic-based.  09:56 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Discord definitely has a. It's also got a bunch of emojis and badges and avatars and all these things that you can do with it.  10:19 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) So I would say for communities. If you're looking for a community, feel that the Facebook groups if you don't want to be on Facebook anymore at all or you're disliking things about Facebook, in particular, discord for community, I think is a really good way to go. And I think people are just kind of waiting it out a little bit at this moment in time, because Facebook really was for many, many, many years. It was a great community gatherer, and so I think that people are just kind of sitting back, waiting and seeing, or they're fleeing. Some people are going over to Blue Sky, but then again people will say that that is also politically motivated, and so really it just becomes like where are you going to go and where are you going to find the groups? And I think it's one of these things, tom, that we have to just kind of wait and see a little bit. But I would say, professionally, if you want to create that community, start gathering your own mailing list of your current clients and get something going on your website that invites people to subscribe to your email list, and that way you will always have a way to professionally market to that list or communicate with that list. And then, when it comes to community, like colleague and that type of group, I have a wait and see.  11:12 I've kind of have my accounts on all different platforms and I'm just going to join them all and see where I feel that people are kind of migrating to. I know that for me, I've done a lot of work creating groups. I have a VOPs group that has thousands of members. I have business pages on Facebook that have thousands of members and followers. In reality, I have to look at that and say, well, it's possible that my groups have been disbanded and in a way, this is a time where I feel like I can kind of clean up in a way and so things that have grown, maybe possibly stagnant over time, where maybe people are members but maybe they're not engaged members. You know, maybe it's time to really just sit back, take a look, see where things go and really try to engage a quality community right, not necessarily a quantity, remember before it was all like, oh my God, well, I have 90,000 people on my Facebook group, but are they all engaged?  12:03 - Intro (Announcement) Yeah.  12:04 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) So I think now's the time to really start building that community that know, like and trust you, and I feel like that's not just for sales, that's also for people that you interact with on a day-to-day basis. Like Tom, you and I like you're my know, like and trust and I would be like Tom, I want to be where you are so that we can continue our relationship right. So I feel like that's an important criteria for any group that I migrate to or that I create, and then it becomes a build process again.  12:30 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Yeah, I agree. So, bosses, if you've been listening to what Anne's been saying, she's making two extremely important points. One is do not be dependent on any one social media platform for community or for establishing and maintaining relationships with clients. Those are two different things that you can do on all of these social media platforms and the advice of going through all of your social media platforms and keeping track of where all your potential, current and past clients are on all these social media platforms. Make sure that you have all their contact information and get them into your CRM, which is a VO boss conversation that we had very, very recently.  13:15 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) That was the acronym. Party the acronym party. So check out that episode.  13:19 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Absolutely Use that CRM, because it's also a way to cultivate relationships with all of your clients. It's also a way to cultivate relationships with your fellow voice actors. There's nothing stopping you from sending out a newsletter to fellow voice actors, not to tell them about whatever voiceover you've done recently, which they may or may not be interested in, but just talk about concerns or topics of interest to you that may be of interest to them as well. You could also do that through blogging, because your blog posts can have different audiences. You can have blog posts where the audience is your voice seekers and you can have one where your audience is voice actors. To find another way to create a non-social media dependent community and culture.  14:00 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) I think the vlog might be making a comeback. I mean, I think it was always a thing right. But I think a blog I mean I do a Teachable Moment every week and I do shorts every week those are videos that I put out to the community and that can also be part of my blog. There's a lot of those that are part of my blog as well, so people can subscribe to that blog and you can talk about whatever topic floats your boat, floats your passion, and I think that more of the social communities like TikTok and again, you know TikTok is up for now, but again, if you're using it to monetize or using it to try to really sell, just be careful that you're not putting all the eggs in one basket. And so I just say, if you've got good video content right, you can now maybe put that on multiple platforms, right, or the platforms that you feel are right to gain the audience that you want. So just know that your video it turns out to be stuff that you own.  14:51 Stuff that you create is stuff that you own. So if you create videos, put them in a place where you have control over them. Put them on your website, put them in a blog, put them on YouTube if you have a YouTube channel. But if YouTube were to blow up tomorrow, you've got your own server, you've got your own web server that you can put your videos on, and so creating that content that is distinctly something that is owned by you gives you more semblance of control in regards to promoting your services, promoting your voice, promoting your product out there and also fostering a sense of community, even though it may not be engaging, but you can have people like subscribe to your blog, create comments, have engaging comments back and forth.  15:29 And again, there's lots of different places. There's Zoom workspace, there's Slack. There's lots of places where you can have video meetups and create that community there as well, and that's something to think about is to have a Q&A or have a water cooler, like, basically, there's that Zoom water cooler, that's out there, and so how are you going to promote that community water cooler? Well, that can be through a list, a mailing list that you own, or you can continue to put posts out on social media, and again, it just don't depend on that social media to be your one and only way to communicate with your potential clients or your colleagues.  16:05 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) There's also, if you remember, clubhouse and how popular that was during COVID, that became a real great place where a great sense of community that may come back.  16:14 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) This is exactly why.  16:15 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) I'm bringing it up, anne is that Clubhouse may be a place to go back to, because there's no social media feed. There's really not much of a space for flaming trolling spamming.  16:27 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Interesting thought there, because I've done a Thursday VIP room Voices in Podcasting room and we actually were thinking about going away from it, doing Zoom live streaming, zoom on Facebook, which is just another way of doing it. But you're right, clubhouse could be making a comeback.  16:42 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) Well, video, and I'm sure the reason was you know as well as I do is that video has more of a potential for engagement on a human level and on an algorithmic level than pure audio or just photos or just text.  16:55 So yeah, it makes a lot of sense to be on Zoom, but, like for voice actors, sure On Clubhouse. That seems like a really natural fit. There's one other social media platform that I wanted to mention, and that's Reddit. I've had a Reddit account for a few years now, but I just recently decided to start getting in there and seeing what's going on, and it has its level of weirdness, like any other.  17:20 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Again like a Usenet. Sorry, I'm showing my age again. It's like it's a forum.  17:24 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) It's got a forum Usenet kind of feel to it but like any subject matter, personal or professional, that you can think of is there and there's a group of dedicated and a lot of them very social and often supportive people that are talking about any given subject.  17:42 So I've been spending a lot of time on there and, just as a quick side note, just a couple of interesting things that have happened on. There is one there was a high school student who was required to interview a voice actor for a paper that they had to write. So I volunteered and they sent me the questions, answered the questions and they got an A.  18:00 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) I love that you helped someone get an A Tom.  18:02 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) That's great, yeah Now is that going to help my voiceover career? No, no, but that's a good thing, but it's being a part of the community. The other quick example is and I can't say much is that a journalist went on a subreddit who needed to interview certain kind of people to write an article about a particular subject, and I was right for it. So I messaged them and, as a result and DA much.  18:23 And as a result, we had it was a Zoom or a Google Meet meeting for about a half hour, asked me a bunch of questions and in the past week or so they followed up with a bunch of follow-up questions. They wanted to flesh out parts of the conversation and confirm some details and stuff like that, and I think the article comes out next week, so I'll be happy to talk about it then and promote it, because it's a very very, let's just say.  18:50 it's a topic that's extremely relevant to the voiceover community and has been for a couple of years and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. But I wouldn't have gotten that without being on a social media platform and availing myself to what could just come my way, and it's going to turn into a nationally published article from a reputable news organization.  19:08 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Excellent. Now the other thing is yes, we're talking about the social media chaos and what we can do about it. Now the other thing, too, is, if you're finding that social media has become to the point where, if you're doom scrolling and it is doom scrolling and it is becoming mentally difficult right to read things on it, then I would say, for your own mental health, step back, take a break. It's not a critical part of you know. You have your circle of friends. I have, like Tom, I can get in touch with you in lots of other ways other than social media if I have to. So, really, guys, when it comes to your health and the health of your business, if you need to step back absolutely. It's not the be all end all.  19:49 Social media is not the be all end all to your business. It is a method that we have used for many years to promote ourselves. And I remember gosh, back in the day when social media was just becoming popular and there was Instagram and Facebook, and then it was like, oh my God, we can actually like, advertise our businesses on here. And that wasn't so long ago, or maybe it just seems like time has flown by, but I remember back in 2004 or five or six, and doing like a class on, like social media and how to advertise your business. And so 20 years has gone by, it's evolved, it's turned into a very different animal, and so I think, think again, very similar to how technologies evolve and things happen. We need to evolve with the time. So if you need to step back, absolutely for your health, absolutely step back.  20:38 I honestly don't think that it's going to be the destruction of your business unless you have monetized on a platform that is closing down or is one of those platforms that is now you, you know, in chaos, and so really try to diversify.  20:50 Think about how you can keep in contact with your current clients, how you can reach out to other clients, and again, I'm going to just say the good old school, like create a list for yourself. There's not one website software out there that doesn't have a way where you can invite people to become part of your list and you just have a checkbox that says I agree to allow you to send emails and people give you permission, and that becomes, I think, one of the best tools that you have, right for, let's say, maybe a professional way of marketing yourself and also a way of becoming closer to your community of professionals so that your business can stay afloat and with colleagues right. Gather those colleagues close to you. Already now there's multiple. I mean, we all do have phones, we all do have homes, we might live near each other, we all have ways to text and stay in communities together and, I think, don't rely on anyone. Get yourself prepared to not depend on any one method of acquiring clients or communicating with your colleagues at large.  21:58 - Tom Dheere (Co-host) That makes so much sense. I'll leave everybody with one thing Think about why you're on social media. Because it just kind of showed up and everybody just started using it. And nobody took a class or read a manual, they just started messing around on there. So if you're on social media for community and the communities are failing you in one social media platform, go to a different one. If you're going there to look for clients and develop relationships with them, if the social media platforms that you've been on aren't conducive for that they never were or they aren't anymore go to a different social media platform. If you are on social media for purely non-voiceover reasons you're just there to be entertained, amused or inspired or educated, and those aren't working anymore go to different ones. If you're doing it, you just find yourself going like this on your phone and none of those motivations are there. That means the really awful psychology, algorithmic things have got their clutches in you. Yeah, get off. Read a book, take a walk, go have coffee with a friend.  22:58 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Yeah, I love that. That's a great way to end that, tom. Thank you so much. Yeah, bosses, be safe and be healthy with social media. All right, great conversation, tom. I'm going to give a great big shout out to our sponsor, ipdtl. Find out more at IPDTLcom.

In this episode, Monica comes to us with a question that I know many of you listeners have as well:  How do I deepen my connection with my spirit guides?  Prior to this reading, Monica had done a lot of deep healing work in her ancestral line around feelings of persecution and being an outsider.  She had experienced these themes in her own life when she chose to take an alternative path to healing infertility, and the people in her world did not support or understand her choices.  In this reading, we discovered a past lifetime when she was a healer at a time when healing gifts were widely not accepted by her community.  And we also connected her with one of her primary guides who was her mentor during that lifetime.  I was completely engrossed by the information that came through in this reading, and I am sure you will be too! Key Takeaways:Our spirit guides can be souls who we have known and had a significant relationship with during a past life. As souls, we continue to work on the same themes across lifetimes. Many souls at this time have come to earth to work through past traumas around feeling persecuted and misunderstood, because now is a time in history where there are a mass of souls who are more supportive. Our real power comes from standing in our own truth, and trusting that we are safe even when others have different perspectives.Our spirit guides often speak to us in “whispers” so it is important that we learn to quiet our minds so that we can hear them. Check out my four-part video course to connect with your spiritual support team: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/product/spirit-guides-how-to-connect-to-your-spiritual-support-team/Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Alignment is one of those words that gets thrown around a lot in the world of spiritual development and life coaching.  But what does it really mean?  In this week's episode, I had the honor of interviewing Life Alignment coach, Didier Sylvain.  Didier shares his unique take on living in alignment and so much more.  It was such a fun conversation. I know you will enjoy it too! Key Takeaways:To be aligned with life means to partner with life and one's own capacity to consciously choose how we lead our lives towards our greater vision, rather than to make choices based on default patterns or trauma responses. We can move closer to living in alignment by asking ourselves creative questions such as, “what keeps you guided?” or “what's your vision you'd like to inhabit or co-create?”Our bodies want flow and choice in life, and trauma can limit that flow. The way in which we relate to our trauma can either be helpful or harmful.Different teachers use different verbiage, so with all these teachings, go with whatever awakens in your heart.Words are powerful. Respect the power of the word, but don't get lost in it. What speaks to you, will resonate deeply.  You can let the rest go.One way to discover your soul's potential is through experimentation. This could be something small scale like daily affirmations to something large scale like moving across the country. Inspired action is the perfect balance between receiving spiritual signs and then following up with your skills/actions to reach your vision.Our most challenging moments are portals of possibility. By holding our vision, we remember that we're always guided even when we think the path has ended.Connect and learn with Didier Sylvain here:Website: https://www.didiersylvain.com/ Instagram: __didiersylvain__Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Key Takeaways:The greatest gift you have to offer the world is your own unique energy and perspective.  Yet many of us have been conditioned to believe that our value lies in matching some external standards and being who we think others want and expect us to be.  In this episode, we discuss how to reconnect with your own authentic self so that you can experience the magic of being who you really are.    Key Takeaways:Being yourself is not something you “try” to do, it's more about simply allowing yourself to be who you really are. Your uniqueness is a beautiful expression of your own inner divinity, and a big part of what you are here on earth to do.Being authentic means expressing your own unique gifts, rather than molding ourselves to others' expectations.When we stay true to ourselves, we naturally attract the people, experiences and opportunities that will make our soul sing. Comparing yourself to others is never a worthwhile comparison. We all have our unique gifts, and just because yours don't shine through like someone else's, doesn't mean that you're not gifted or worthy of sharing your uniqueness!You can discover what's special about you by following your joy, remembering what you loved as a child (before you were conditioned), and by acknowledging qualities you admire in someone else, as they are within you as well.Being authentic means loving yourself as you are, honoring your uniqueness, and aligning with your highest self.Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Years ago I took a course as part of my masters program that was all about shamanism.  At the time I was somewhat surprised to discover that the use of hallucinogenic plants was a big part of many traditional healing practices.  Flash forward to 2022, and plant medicine is talked about more than ever before.  Even the American Psychological Association is offering continuing education credits to study the therapeutic effects of hallucinogens.  Hallucinogenic substances have long been used to expand our perceptions and awaken our psychic abilities.  In this episode, we explore the power of Plant Medicine with our guest Kayse Gehret. Kayse is the founder of Micro-dosing for Healing, a nationwide virtual platform combining micro-dosing education and a supportive community. Key Takeaways:There are a variety of plant medicines, only some of which are hallucinogenic. Plant medicine is not for everyone, and different plants will resonate with different people.The purpose of micro-dosing is to experience the benefits of the plant medicine in a more gentle way. Micro-dosing is especially helpful for more sensitive souls who may not respond well to a higher dose of plant medicine, and for those who have had bad experiences in the past with psychedelics. It's important to set pure intentions when working with plant medicines, as opposed to using them to escape reality.Plant medicine can be a catalyst for physical, emotional and spiritual growth by awakening your own innate healing abilities.  Microdosing is great for increasing our energetic vibration, becoming more in touch with our emotions, and for helping people realize what no longer serves them in life.With any kind of spiritual work, especially when using plant medicine, integration is necessary to honor the lessons from the medicine. Integration means to take the awakenings you have and integrate them into your daily life.Connect and learn more with Kayse here:Website: https://www.microdosingforhealing.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kaysegehret/ Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

We often think of our intuition as a voice in our head, guiding us in the proper direction.  But our true spiritual guidance system is far broader than that.  In fact, life itself can be our guide when we agree to tune in, listen deeply, and flow with her energy.  In this episode, I share about how our life events can gently (and sometimes not so gently) guide us towards greater spiritual alignment, and why learning to go with the flow will transform your life.    Key Takeaways: Life will naturally give us nudges and edits towards what serves our greatest good.  That lost job may indicate the need for some time off or a career change.  Your sudden craving for watermelon may be exactly what you need to get out of the house and run into an old friend.  Life is really that magical! Feeling stuck usually means that you are out of alignment with life, and are pushing against the flow.  Relaxing into wherever life wants to take you is usually the more peaceful and joyous path.The more we focus on the experience of being “stuck” the more we feel that way.  Instead, gently shift your attention to the areas of life that seem to be moving forward effortlessly.If we ignore life's gentle nudges they may become increasingly less gentle in order to capture our attention.  Sometimes life's edits are manifested through our fear-based beliefs.  For example, if you believe that you are not deserving of a loving partner, you may experience abandonment.  One trick in shifting these patterns is to treat every experience as a miracle, and recognize that life is always showing you where your soul longs to expand. Your intuition will help you align with the flow in life. It's not about what is “good” or “bad” but what feels deeply right for you in the present moment.  Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

In this episode, our guest Erin joins us for a reading.  Erin is looking to find her “Mr. Right.”  She longs to open her heart and enter a partnership, but she also fears becoming dependent on her partner like her parents' marriage.   During the session, Erin discovers her own power and strength, and how she has everything she needs within her to manifest the relationship her heart craves. Key Takeaways: We often develop our beliefs about what is possible in our relationships by observing our parents.  The more we are able to stay true to ourselves, the easier it is to attract a partner that matches our own magnificence. Our souls are often more comfortable expressing feminine or masculine energies, based on our experiences in past lives. You can depend on someone without being dependent.Everyone is a reflection of us and the people you need will always find you when you need them.Being single is not a character flaw.  There are many ways to express your soul's purpose in your human lifetimes, and it is not always necessary or desirable to choose a single life partner. Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

In this week's episode of the Intuitive Connection Podcast, Bypassing Analysis Paralysis, I share my personal experiences with overthinking and some guidance on how to avoid Analysis Paralysis when making decisions. Often, we make decisions based on what we think we “should” do, and not what truly brings us joy and aligns with our soul's intent. Our “shoulds” come from the mind, and what we have been taught is “right” or “wrong,” “good” and “bad.”  Intuition comes from the soul and will always guide you towards the most aligned choice in the present moment. Key Takeaways: The best decisions are always intuitively guided.  Analysis paralysis occurs when the mind takes over and we lose touch with our inner wisdom. When making a decision, ask yourself what place you're making the decision from. Is it from your heart, soul, joy, trust and intuition? Or from the junk of your mind, fear, and scarcity? Tune into your intuition, learn what feels good, and follow that!When making decisions there is not always one single best option. Sometimes the choice is between many equally worthwhile options, and even our “mistakes” are valuable opportunities for exploration and growth. The more we follow our joy in every choice that we make, the more our choices will guide us towards even more joyful experiences.  Our childhood conditioning can impact how we experience decision-making as an adult. Becoming aware of this conditioning is the first step towards releasing these old patterns. Few decisions are truly as high stakes as our minds might lead us to believe.  And  even if you do make a decision that leads you down a perilous path, each moment presents an opportunity to make a new choice.Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Meet Natasha Sharma, who helps us to look at one of our most taboo topics: Death. What has been your personal experience with death? Of loved ones? Of facing your own mortality? Natasha is a Money and Manifestation Coach and has a mission to help us live life fully by embracing our own mortality. Natasha is part of a co-authored book with me, called "Wealth Codes: Sacred Strategies for Abundance." Find her chapter in Wealth Codes: Chapter 11: "The Beauty of the End Game - Finding Abundance Through Accepting Death," available on Amazon. Death has been Natasha's constant visitor from a very young age, the passing of her own mother, and losing loved ones to everything from suicide to terrorism. During the pandemic, she gained full awareness of the importance of facing and accepting her own mortality. This became the catalyst for her to make a noise and encourage everybody to do the same for themselves. About Natasha: Natasha Sharma was born and brought up in the UK. She has spent considerable time in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and now lives in Mumbai, India with her husband Rrajeev Sharma, and their two feline fur babies Freyja and Isaac. She is a bonus mother to the beautiful Rewa Khare Sharma. Her passion is Money and Manifestation, and her mission in life is to have conversations about death and use that inevitability to free people to enjoy their lives now. She believes that death needs to be an easy day-to-day, dinner table conversation. In that pursuit, she is starting the conversation in the upcoming collaborative book project "Wealth Codes – Sacred Strategies for Abundance" launching in August 2022, and will continue to write, and speak openly and extensively about death until her mission is accomplished. Reach out to her and invite her to speak to you, your family, your employees, and anyone you feel will benefit from the reprioritization of their work and their lives.

In this episode, we welcome back neuropsychologist Chris Niebauer to continue our conversation on how you can harness the power of your brain and avoid getting lost in your thoughts. Chris shares both scientific and practical tips for understanding the nature of the human mind and how we can learn to use our mind as a tool, without getting used by it.  Key Takeaways: The thinking mind was created to help us survive in a world we no longer live in. As our world evolved, our programmed mind stayed the same.Awakening happens when we learn to disidentify with our minds, and connect more directly with our higher selves. You can't solve the  “problem” of thinking, with more thinking.  True solutions arise when the mind is still. The role of the mind provides a shared consensual sense of reality. It allows us to experience the human illusion. It creates a sense of time and tells us how the world works. However, what has happened is the mind has taken over when it's no longer necessary to rule our lives.Each moment, you have the power to reconnect to your soul and refocus your attention to choose how you want to feel. Connect and learn with Chris Niebauer here:Website: https://chrisniebauerphd.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/chris5264/videos Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/noselfnoproblem No Self, No Problem: How Neuropsychology Is Catching Up To Buddhism by Chris Niebauer can be found here: https://bookshop.org/shop/VictoriashawintuitiveDisclosure: I am an affiliate of Bookshop.org and I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase.Listen to the first episode with Chris Niebauer: No Self, No Problem, here: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/podcast/ep-82-no-self-no-doubt-featuring-chris-niebauer/ Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

You know those moments where someone says or does something, and you immediately feel yourself taken out of a state of ease, flow and grace? Maybe someone cuts you off in traffic or a family member makes a comment that reminds you of past trauma. We call these triggers, and we all experience them. In this episode, we discuss how to know when you're triggered and the best ways to respond when it happens.   Key Takeaways:Even the most enlightened beings get triggered sometimes.  It's nothing to feel bad about and there's nothing wrong with you, it's just part of the human experience!  The trick is in how you respond. When we're unconsciously triggered, we react rather than respond and can create more problems. It's not about not being triggered by anything, but knowing when you're triggered, bringing awareness to it and not reacting from that space. Recognizing when someone else is triggered and having compassion for them doesn't excuse bad behavior, but understanding that we're all human and that they're acting from their trigger helps you take a step back and look at the situation from a higher place of love, joy and alignment. You can become more aware of your triggers by simply setting an intention. Ask your guides to assist in showing you when you're in the light and when you're off, and to help become aware and bring yourself back to center. Watch as your awareness grows!All triggers are a blessing that show us something that needs more love and compassion within us. Triggers help us heal once we consciously become aware and process them!Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

One of the beautiful parts about life is the infinite number of possibilities and paths we can take.  The guest of today's reading, Sofia, is facing a crossroads and is seeking guidance on how to decide the next step. Should she follow what she believes is her passion and purpose or accept a new position in her current industry?  And is it really an either/or choice?  Tune in to hear what the guides have to say about navigating life at a crossroads. Key Takeaways: There are no “wrong" decisions or choices. We learn through trial and error. Every choice we make offers an opportunity for growth and learning more of what our soul desires. Social and familial conditioning can have a significant influence on us as adults. As we grow and question the things we learned when we were young, transformation takes place and we get to decide what we want to believe as adults.We often think of our life purpose as something we do. The guides are here to remind us that our purpose can simply be to follow our joy and have fun!Your life purpose can change at different stages in your life.Our world is not black or white and sometimes choices are not always “either/or.” Saying yes to something, it doesn't always mean you're saying no to something else. Sometimes we feel like we need to choose between doing what's in our highest good and supporting and caring for others. However, when we take care of ourselves and our needs first, that often means we're better able to take care of others since we've filled up our own cup first. Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

We all have a voice in our heads that criticizes, complains, steals our joy, and if we are not careful, can take over our lives. In this episode, we discuss how to have a loving relationship with our inner critic and how we can use the power of attention and intention to create more space around our thoughts and treat ourselves with more love and compassion. Key Takeaways:You are not your thoughts or your mind. You're a beautiful, expansive soul and your mind is one aspect of something much greater! The first step in dealing with this unhelpful voice is to bring awareness to it and recognize it's a voice in your head that comes from conditioning and isn't the truth. When you become aware of this voice, you can start to create space around that voice by focusing on something that's more interesting and loving.Anything that's not in the vibration of love is not who you really are and it's in your power to control where you want to direct your energy. The next time you find yourself in a harmful mind loop - recognize it, take a step back and focus on what you'd like to believe instead, like how you're divinely perfect just the way you are!Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Rachelle and Saskia are two clinically trained psychologists who awakened their psychic gifts and founded their healing collective, Not Your Average Psychic. In this episode, they share their journey of how they went from psychologists to psychics. We also discuss how to know when you're hearing your intuition, the societal conditioning we have surrounding supernatural abilities, and how to connect with your pain in a healthy way while not getting lost in it. Key Takeaways: As a culture, the soul and spirituality has been neglected and often discounted in the field of psychology. When you combine the two, so much magic can happen! Opening up to your psychic abilities can sometimes bring up feelings of discomfort, but by trusting and moving through the fear, you can awaken to so much beauty and inner-knowingness. We often believe certain things based on societal conditioning that our soul knows not to be true. When we start to de-condition ourselves and let go of societal fear surrounding psychic abilities, we can learn to tap into these abilities from a place of love, understanding and strength.  Many people use psychic abilities and their intuition without even knowing it! When we accept the present moment, we're able to hear our intuitive voice come through with ease.Triggering, painful or challenging experiences are happening FOR you, not to you. When you allow yourself to sit with the pain for a moment, without getting lost in it, profound realizations may occur for understanding where the root of the pain is coming from. Instead of talking about pain and re-living the story behind it, Saskia finds it beneficial to feel where the pain is in the body.

Tarot, oracle and positive affirmation decks are a wildly popular and helpful tool to assist us in connecting with our intuition.  In this episode, I share my personal experience using oracle cards and share some insights into the helpful and less helpful ways of using them. Cards are meant for playing, so let's have fun with this one! Key takeaways: Oracle cards can help us get out of our mind, surrender to any possible outcome and connect with our inner wisdom.Some potential pitfalls of oracle cards include overthinking the meaning or misinterpreting the message of a card.There is no such thing as “bad” cards. All cards have a divine message and are neutral, loving and supportive when they come from the soul level. Use discernment when choosing an oracle deck. Choose a deck that is life affirming, empowering, and makes you feel good! It's important to set an intention when working with oracle cards.  Release fear and align the messages that support your highest good!Oracle cards, like all other spiritual tools and signs in the universe, are here to awaken our inner knowing and not replace it or take away our power. All forms of guidance are cooperation with you and your highest self. If a reading doesn't resonate with you at the time, let it go! The message will come to you when it's meant to be received. Mentioned in this episode: Episode 5; Making Peace with Fear: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/podcast/ep4-making-peace-with-fear/ Episode 84; How to Choose a Psychic featuring Corbie Mitleid: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/podcast/ep-84-how-to-choose-a-psychic-featuring-corbie-mitleid/ Haunted by a Tarot Card: https://victoriashawpsychotherapy.com/haunted-by-a-tarot-card Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

This podcast brings me so much joy, but sometimes what feels missing is YOU and your engagement and interaction alongside me. That's why I love hearing from listeners and having the opportunity to answer your questions on the show. This week's episode was inspired by a listener's question, asking me to share my story of how I went from being an Ivy League psychologist and overwhelmed mother to talking to spirit guides for a living. Tune in as I share stories from my childhood and how everything changed when I took my first intuition development class. As you listen to my story, remember that we're all unique and we each have our individual stories, all special and beautiful. Key Takeaways: From a young age I could feel other people's feelings, knew things I had no logical way of knowing and tuned in to wisdom and guidance far beyond my years. Spirituality wasn't talked about in my family, but I always felt a deep connection to the divine even if I did not have a frame of reference for understanding what I was experiencing. Like many children, I shut down aspects of my psychic knowing, because I was not supported in understanding my multisensory awareness. When we set the intention to connect with our inner wisdom, our intuition blossoms effortlessly and quickly.Everyone has intuitive gifts that are unique to them and their soul's expression. The more we raise our vibration and release what no longer serves us, the more space we create for our highest self to shine through.Intuition is the gift that keeps on giving: the more you connect with your inner wisdom, the stronger it becomes.Empaths lead the world with their love and expanded awareness.

The goal of a good intuitive reading is to get you out of your head, and reconnect with your own divine wisdom.  In this Episode, single mom Hanna came looking for some guidance around returning to the world of dating after a 9-year hiatus.    Here are some highlights about what the guides shared and affirmed within Hanna:By healing from a past relationship, we can move forward in new relationships from a position of strength and empowerment.We are never responsible for someone else's actions and perceptions. We are only responsible for ourselves.Before we're birthed as children, our soul chooses our parents and the life lessons that come with that.A parent's role is not to prevent anything bad from happening or to control what happens to their child, but to support them by making them feel seen, heard and loved.Remember not to change yourself for anyone. Be positively and truly you, and the right person will see your light. If you have to change or be less of yourself for someone, they're not the one.If dating doesn't feel joyful, take a break.

We all have a spiritual support team of guides, angels and loved ones that assist us in a myriad of ways from beyond the veil. In this episode, we explore how our guides are able to bridge the gap between realms to communicate with us, as well as what we can do to enhance these lines of communication. Key Takeaways:Different types of spirit guides can assist us in different waysHow our deceased loved ones work differently than our spirit guidesOur guides can communicate with us during sleep by redirecting our thoughts, appearing in visions, and even through our bodily sensationsHow we can intentionally tune into their energy and listen to their guidanceGuides are always loving and their messages are never judgmental or fear-basedOur guides are here to point us back  to our own inner wisdomReady to deepen your connection with your spirit guides?

Joy is your birthright and the natural state of your soul.  Yet, so many of us struggle to find and maintain the vibration of joy throughout our daily lives.  In this episode, we welcome my soul sister and new BFF, Lisa McCourt, who shares her tips for raising your vibe and living in joy.  Lisa is the founder of Joy School, host of the Do Joy podcast, and the author of vibration-elevating books that have sold over 8 million copies.Some key takeaways: Our emotions are messengers.  The trick is to feel into what they are here to show us, without getting stuck there.The more joyous we feel, the more that joy can spill out and uplift others.We don't always know what things and experiences will bring us joy, but we do know how we would like to feel. We can use our intuition to guide us towards the things and experiences that will feed our souls and bring us joy. We all have the ability to shift our habits and perceptions, raise our vibration, and experience joy. The best way to create a happy future is to imagine how you want to feel, without focusing too much on what you think has to happen for you to get there. Connect and learn from Lisa McCourt here:Website: https://lisamccourt.com/Podcast: Do Joy!

Our culture bombards us with messages of how we should and shouldn't look, and what we should and shouldn't eat.  There are so many rules (many of which are constantly changing) about what is “good” and “healthy” and what is “bad” and “should be avoided.”  We all have the innate wisdom to guide us in nourishing ourselves on the physical, emotional and spiritual levels.  In this episode, we explore ways to reconnect with the wisdom of our bodies, and to eat more intuitively. Episode highlights:Intuitive eating is about feeding yourself what feels good in your body rather than what you think is good for you. True health begins when we learn to feed ourselves from a place of self-love, rather than judgment and fear. Intuitive eating is about tuning into what feels right in the present moment, and following your own natural inclinations. No diet or exercise regimen is “healthy” if it is based on self-judgment.You are a beautiful emanation of the divine source, nothing you can do (or not do) will ever change that! The more we develop a loving relationship with ourselves and our physical bodies, the more we will naturally gravitate towards making choices that support our health and well being. Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Money is such a hot button issue for so many people.  We worry about not having enough, or spending too much.  We focus on acquiring money and possessions, rather than on aligning with the natural flow of joy and abundance.  In this episode, our guest, Rachel joins us for guidance on how to address her money “blocks.”  Tune in to see what came through! Key takeaways:The difference between material wealth and abundance.How our early life experiences can set the stage for our future experiences with and beliefs about money.How we can expand our comfort zone by gradually stretching in small and comfortable increments.How to avoid passing our limiting beliefs onto our kidsWhy it's best to focus our attention on expanding our areas of strength rather than fixing our perceived weaknesses. When we tune into what we already have and express gratitude, we tend to attract more. Did you know I offer intuitive readings and coaching sessions to clients all over the world?   You can book your session here:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages?provider_id=13555Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

We all experience periods in our lives of great upheaval, where the structures, people and/or beliefs that we may have relied on in the past, all seem to be falling apart.  While these periods can be challenging, they also offer great opportunities for personal and spiritual growth.  These periods, often known as Dark Nights of the Soul, are becoming increasingly common both individually and collectively.  In this episode, I reconnected with my soul brother, Mark Youngblood, founder of Inner Mastery, Inc., to explore how we can thrive through a dark night of the soul. Here are some of the key takeaways from the episode:We are collectively and individually going through dark times as Earth is transitioning to a higher level of being.The more we understand what we are going through, can flow with it and be in a state of acceptance, the gentler and more peaceful the dark night of the soul experience will be. Dark nights come in a variety of forms and can vary in their intensity.  Some feel like minor life glitches and shifts of perception, while others can be experienced as complete upheavals to our whole way of being. It's important to have a set of transformational tools to support us, help us to release old emotions, clear our energy and shift our thoughts.When we get triggered, it can sometimes feel like we are going backwards, but these moments actually give us an opportunity to practice our spiritual tools, and respond to our past conditioning with a deeper level of awareness. It's important to surround yourself with people who will support you in your highest vibration.For many of us we have been conditioned that it has to be hard, but it doesn't have to be. Connect and learn with Mark Youngblood here:Free “Soul Connection & Divine Guidance” Masterclass:https://go.pathwaytoradiance.com/soulconnectionFree SoulSide Community Facebook Group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/soulsidecommunity/Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

If you are drawn to this show, you are probably fascinated by all things spiritual, and hungry to learn whatever you can that will help support your own spiritual development.  In this episode, we focus on the role of the mind in spiritual teachings, and how spiritual development is often less about what we know in our minds, and more about shifts in the way we experience our lives.  Episode highlights:There is a difference between understanding concepts and living them.  Oftentimes we can understand something conceptually, before we can fully experience them in our daily lives. We often try to do the work of spiritual development in our heads, but true spiritual growth is experienced and embodied, not simply understood with the mind. It often helps to listen to spiritual teachings with a “soft mind,” allowing the words and ideas to filter in, without hanging on every word, or struggling to “understand.”True spiritual teachings awaken a deep knowing within you.Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

I love going for walk and talk  “sessions” with my guides.  I pose a question, put on my headset, hit record and wait to see what guidance comes through.   I thought I would try something similar this week for the podcast.  My question was about how to feel more self-confident.  As always the guidance that came through was both surprising and inspiring!  Tune in as we learn: How self confidence can mean different things, depending on which “self” you identify with:  Your ego or your higher self.   “Issues” with self-confidence usually come from our early childhood conditioning, and our perceptions about how we measure up to societal values and expectations.Sometimes a lapse in self-confidence can open us up to trusting in a higher power, because we learn to let go of the egoic ideas of how we should be and let our higher self take the lead. As we learn to love ourselves as we are, we make space for our higher selves to shine through. True self-confidence comes from the understanding that life is a beautiful collaboration between our human selves and the divine.Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

For years, I have been totally fascinated by astrology.  In fact, the impetus for much of the work I do today was inspired by information I received during a life-changing astrology reading.  I have been searching high and low to find an aligned and intuitive astrologer to come on the show.  And I am thrilled to have this week's guest, Kathy Rose, join us to share the wisdom and experience she's gleaned from her thirty years as a professional astrologer.  Episode highlights:Kathy has been studying astrology and other metaphysical principles since she was eight years old!!!Kathy shares about how the increased popularity of astrology and the rise of social media has birthed so many misconceptions about what astrology is and how it works. Your natal chart is the imprint you receive from the pattern of the planets at the time of your birth. Kathy emphasizes that there are no “bad” charts.  It is how we live our chart that matters. We discuss the “big three” in astrology:  The sun and moon signs, rising signs, and how they impact your chart. We discuss Mercury Retrograde and why it's not really as bad as you may have been led to believe. Kathy shares how astrology and intuition go hand in hand, and how she uses both in tandem when consulting with clients. Connect and learn from Kathy Rose here:Website: http://roseastrology.com/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/roseastrologyFB: https://www.facebook.com/kathy.rose.330Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

The Law of Attraction teaches us that everything is energy, and that we attract into our lives that which matches our current vibration.   When understood in this way, our life becomes a mirror for our inner state of being, showing us where our soul is still longing to grow and expand, and our lives become the perfect vehicle for our own personal growth and development. We attract experiences and things into our lives which match our energetic vibration.  In this way, the events and experiences in our lives give us feedback about our internal state. We are all complex beings, sending out a variety of energetic messages that may be reflected back to us in the form of our “external” experiences.  It is important to treat yourself and the experience in life without judgment.  It is not “your fault” when “bad” things happen.  You are simply in the process of becoming more conscious in the way that you co-create your life. From the soul's perspective, there is no judgment, only an array of possible choices and experiences. Every step you take in life is golden.  The goal is to keep moving forward with joy, love, inspiration and awareness.When we understand how life works, we become a powerful co-creator of life.Healing and growth is about recalibrating your human self with your higher self.Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

I just love doing intuitive readings on the show.  It's a great opportunity to share what I do and give listeners a chance to learn from each other's stories.  This week's guest came in search of support with a major work transition, something so many people are experiencing right now.  Tune in to hear what the guides shared about how she can use her existing skills to pursue a more soul-aligned career. As children we often learn stories about ourselves and the world that can potentially limit us later in life.  Fortunately, once we identify these stories they are easy to unlearn. When making a significant life transition, we often think of it in terms of an all or nothing approach.  But oftentimes we draw on our past experiences and skill set to create a new direction moving forward. Meaningful change requires that we learn to get comfortable with the unknown. We all connect and express our intuitive guidance in different ways.  It is important to honor your own unique way of experiencing your intuition. Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Seeing others in pain can naturally bring out our desire to soothe and to care for them.  In this episode, we explore the difference between empathy and sympathy and how we can support others through their life's challenges without disempowering them.  Episode highlights:The difference between seeing people in “the red” and in “the green”  When we have sympathy for another person, we see them as broken and needing our help to be “fixed.” Empathy, on the other hand, sees the other person as powerful and complete. True “helping” and healing is reconnecting others with their own inner resources.When seeking support, it is important to find people who empower you.Every challenge we face is here to benefit the evolution of our soul.We are all conduits of the divine.  When we support another person, we are acting in service to a higher power.When we look for sympathy instead of support we are disempowering ourselves.When we truly experience unconditional love we see ourselves and others as whole, complete and a spark of the divine.Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

So many people have been writing to me as of late wanting to know how to stay OK, when the world is filled with so much suffering.   With the roller coaster ride of the past two years, many of us are feeling overwhelmed and beaten down by compassion fatigue.  In this episode, we focus on how you can stay in your own highest, and truest energetic vibration, even when those around you are suffering, and why doing so is a gift not only to yourself, but to the world as a whole.  Episode highlights:Many of us have learned that caring means sharing in other people's suffering.  But nothing could be further from the truth. Caring simply means that we honor the integrity of another person's experience. The best way to help heal the planet is to lend your highest vibration to the collective.The joy you feel in the present moment especially when the world is in a dark place is the joy the world needs to help get through the darkness.We are here to experience all of the human emotions, and sometimes they will be the ones that don't feel as good to us.You can have compassion for others who are having a hard time and suffering without being pulled into their vibration.Unconditional love is honoring  the process of life in all its aspects, even the ones that don't feel good emotionally or make sense to your mind. If you are someone who feels like you have to fix everyone's pain, please meditate on that.Honoring someone else's experience means being a witness to their experience.  The more unconditionally loving and neutral we can be, the deeper the healing.Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Have you ever heard the expression, “the issues are in the tissues?” In this episode, we explore how our emotions can become stuck on our bodies and get in the way of our optimal well being.  This week's guest, Rebecca Packard helps clients create emotional balance, release trapped emotions, and live free using a combination of modalities including Emotion & Body Code.Episode highlights:The awakening journey is a continuing process, and not necessarily a single, discrete event. Rebecca combines her background in emergency medicine and combines that with Emotion Code and her intuition to help clients remove and alchemize negative frequencies.Negative emotions create a physical imprint in our bodies that can lead to dis-ease. When we release negative frequencies we begin to magnetize the experiences we want instead of the ones we don't want.Our brains and bodies are wired to hang on to more negative emotions than positive. We can reverse this negativity bias by focusing our attention more on our positive thoughts and experiences. There are really no “bad” emotions, and all of our experiences serve an important role in human and spiritual journey.We pick up and hold emotions unconsciously but we have the ability to release them.When you do your own inner healing work, the relationships around you often shift. Clearing away your own emotional baggage, paves the way for others to put down their own baggage too. Busy minds and strong emotions can block your intuition.  As you start to clear your mind, emotions and energy field,  your intuition becomes stronger and clearer. Connect and learn from Rebecca Packard here:https://rebeccapackard.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/rebeccapackardnh/FB: https://www.facebook.com/Rebeccapackardlivefree/Podcast: Live Free with Rebecca PackardBook mentioned: The Emotion Code: How to Release Your Trapped Emotions for Abundant Health, Love, and Happiness by Dr. Bradley NelsonBooks can be found: https://bookshop.org/shop/VictoriashawintuitiveDisclosure: I am an affiliate of Bookshop.org and I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase.Connect and learn with me here:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/www.instagram.com/victoriashawintuitiveIf you would like to connect with other like-minded souls, take a deeper dive into the topics discussed in these episodes, or learn more about how to awaken to your own inner magnificence, please join us in my Facebook group, Intuitive Connection Community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntuitiveconnectioncommunityAre you ready to take the next steps in awakening your intuition?  Please enjoy and download a copy of my Free Activate Your Intuition Ebook: https://victoriashawintuitive.com/free-e-book/If you would like to take a deeper dive into leveraging the power of your intuition, please check out my self-paced, online course, Activating Your Intuition at:https://victoriashawintuitive.com/courses/activating-your-intuition/On Clubhouse: @victoriashaw

Christina Corpus, candidate for San Mateo County Sheriff 2022. Christina is the first female candidate to run for Sheriff in San Mateo County. Christina is currently the Chief of Police services for the City of Millbrae.If elected in June, 2022, she will be the first Latina Sheriff in the state of California. Christina Corpus is the daughter of immigrants from Nicaragua and Mexico. She was born and raised in the Bay Area, where she has lived her entire life. Growing up, her mother instilled in her a strong work ethic, and she has been working since she was sixteen years old. As she entered adulthood, she was drawn to public service. She began her career with San Mateo County as a caseworker with the San Mateo County District Attorney's Office in 1995. Serving the public was a rewarding experience and Christina quickly realized that law enforcement was how she wished to grow as a professional and inspire young women that looked like her. She applied to the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office and was hired as a Correctional Officer in 2002. She was quickly promoted to Deputy Sheriff and worked primarily in the North Fair Oaks area, a predominantly Latino community. There, Christina met her husband, John, who is also a law enforcement officer for the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office. Over her decades-long career at the Sheriff's Office, Christina has served in the Corrections Division, Professional Standards, and the Operations Division. Most of her career has been heavily involved with community policing, first as a Deputy, and then as the Director of the Sheriff's Office Community Alliance to Revitalize our Neighborhood. After she was promoted to Sergeant, she returned to Community Policing as a supervisor. As she advanced in her career, Christina realized she wanted to deepen her understanding of law enforcement with more education. This drive led Christina to enroll in Union Institute and University, where she completed a bachelor's degree in Law Enforcement Leadership. After being promoted to Sergeant and serving as Community Policing Supervisor, Christina was promoted to Lieutenant and oversaw the entire Community Policing Bureau. She later became the Commander of Bayside Patrol and managed the Community Policing Unit, the School Resource Unit, Field Training Unit, K-9 Unit, Motor Unit, and the Sheriff's Activities League program. When she was promoted to Captain, she continued to oversee the Bayside Patrol Bureau. Recently, she became Chief of Police Services for the City of Millbrae.Christina has always taken pride in being a problem solver. Throughout her career, she has championed several innovative programs to re-imagine modern law enforcement in San Mateo County:Women in Law Enforcement Boot Camp and Symposium to mentor and train women seeking a career in law enforcementBOLO-Wrap, a restraint device to humanely immobilize combative or resistive individuals.Project Guardian, in which law enforcement officers receive special training and a system of advisory alerts to inform them on when they are contacting a person on the autistic spectrum, and how to safely diffuse the situationI'mpossible running program, which uses running as a conduit to self-respect, self-love, and, through education, dedication and hard work, the self-esteem based belief that anything is possibleOfficer Survey program, which allows community members to provide feedback on the service they receive from our Sheriff's deputiesAside from her work with the Sheriff's Office, Christina also serves as a board member for Lifemoves, Casa Circulo Cultural, and the Sheriff's Activities League. She completed a Masters of Science Degree in Law Enforcement and Public Safety Leadership from the University of San Diego and received her degree in August 2021. When she's not working, studying or sitting on a board, Christina enjoys spending time with her husband, John, and their two children, 12-year-old Gianna and 10-year-old Jacob.If you are in San Mateo county, CA, please consider voting for Christina in June, 2022.The A World of Difference Podcast is brought to you in partnership with Missio Alliance.Stay In Touch: Connect on Facebook and Instagram with thoughts, questions, and feedback.
