"Hello --It is May 28th and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 4: Resilience & ReclamationDay 28: Today's truth is: "Why did you come out here at all?" Idea: The isolation of grief. There are days when grief makes you question your place in the world. You might feel like a shadow of yourself. Or like a misfit in every room.Isolation is part of this journey. But it doesn't have to define it.Today, reach for a small connection. Share a memory, a text, a voice that sees you. These shared memories keep your loved one's spirit alive.You came out here — into this complicated world — because your love for your person still lives. This is a testament to your strength and resilience, even in the face of unbearable loss.And that love deserves to be witnessed. You deserve to be seen. Remember, you are not alone in this journey. Others understand and are here to support you.So, that's what I have today.

"Hello --It is May 27th and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 4: Resilience & ReclamationDay 27: Today's truth is: "It sounds uncommon nonsense." Idea: Navigating unhelpful advice. Grief comes with opinions — often terrible ones. "Everything happens for a reason." "They wouldn't want you to be sad." "At least you have other children."Let's name that for what it is: nonsense. Well-intentioned - maybe. But deeply unhelpful.On the other hand, "I'm here for you." "Take all the time you need." "It's okay not to be okay." These are the kind of things that can genuinely help.You don't have to smile and nod or educate every person. But you can give yourself permission to reject the societal noise and feel supported in your struggle. Embrace your emotions and know it's okay to feel what you feel. You understand your grief better than anyone. Your truth is your guide. Let that be louder than their nonsense. Remember, your journey is yours alone, and every step you take is valid. Stand firm in your reality, and don't let others dictate your path to healing.So, that's what I have today. That's your nugget.AND Here is the Coupon Code: Podcast5 - to use at checkoutIt is good for BOTH the "Because They Lived" Anthology Info & Submit HERE and The One-on-One Coaching (for moms) HEREBoth coupons good through June 30, 2025 - Thank you for listening! - MelissaTake a breath.

"Hello --It is May 26th and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 4: Resilience & ReclamationDay 26: Today's truth is: "I shall be punished... by being drowned in my own tears." Idea: Emotional overwhelm.Have you ever felt like grief might consume you? If you let it in, would it pull you under for good?You're not alone. Many of us have felt the weight of grief, fearing that our pain is too big, too dark, too much. But remember, we're all in this together.But your tears are not a punishment. They are a testament to the depth of your love. They are released. They are language.Today, if you cry — let it come. Let it move through you. You are not drowning. You are flowing. And in this flow, you will find healing and eventually, you will find shore again.So, let's end here today. with this nuggetAND Here is the Coupon Code: Podcast5 - to use at checkoutIt is good for BOTH the "Because They Lived" Anthology Info & Submit HERE and The One-on-One Coaching (for moms) HEREBoth coupons good through June 30, 2025 - Thank you for listening! - MelissaTake a breath.

"Hello --It is May 25th and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 4: Resilience & ReclamationDay 25: Today's truth is: "Why is a raven like a writing desk?" Idea: Unanswerable questions. This is one of those questions that has no answer. It's a shared experience, much like the ones we ask in grief: Why my loved one? Why then? Why now? And the BIG one - Why suicide?Some things don't make sense. They can't. It's important to acknowledge this. No logic will soothe the ache. No theory will soften the silence.And that's where we meet mystery. Not to solve it — but to survive it. To say: I hate this. I don't understand this. But I'm still breathing inside of it.Today, if the questions are loud, let them be. You don't have to answer them to live with them. And remember, if the weight of these questions becomes too heavy, there are people who care about you and are ready to listen.So, let's stop here.

"Hello --It is May 24th and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 4: Resilience & ReclamationDay 24: Today's truth is: "Then you shouldn't talk." Idea: The silence around grief. Sometimes, we silence ourselves — afraid to be too heavy, sad, or too much. It's not easy to express these emotions; we all struggle with it. Other times, the world silences us — with awkwardness, judgment, or discomfort.But your story matters. Your voice matters. Your grief deserves to be heard and acknowledged.If no one is listening, talk to the page, pour your heart into a journal, speak to the endless sky above, or even address the memory of your loved one. And remember, it's okay to seek professional help if you need it.And if you have no words today, that's okay, too. Silence can be sacred and immensely powerful in its own right.Don't mistake your silence for invisibility or insignificance.You are still here. Your presence is a powerful testament to your existence, loud enough to be recognized and valued. So, let's stop here.

"Hello --It is May 23rd and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 3: Control & SurrenderDay 23: Today's truth is: "Try again: draw a long breath..." Idea: Starting over. Some days, you start over five times before noon. And that's okay. Grief doesn't care about linear progress — it just asks that you show up, in whatever form that may be. Your journey is valid, no matter how it unfolds.This quote is a gentle nudge. Not a demand. Not a hustle. Just a breath. Just a whisper that even here, in the heaviness, you still get to begin again. And it's okay to begin again, as many times as you need.So today, draw a long breath. Literally. Right now. Inhale. Hold. Exhale. That's it. That counts. That matters.Starting again doesn't mean starting over. It just means returning — to now, to your body, to your strength. Embracing the present moment is your anchor in the storm of grief.So, that's all for now...that's your nugget AND Here is the Coupon Code: Podcast5 - to use at checkoutIt is good for BOTH the "Because They Lived" Anthology Info & Submit HERE and The One-on-One Coaching (for moms) HEREBoth coupons good through June 30, 2025 - Thank you for listening! - MelissaTake a breath.

"Hello --It is May 22nd and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 4: Resilience & ReclamationDay 22: Today's truth is: "It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards." Idea: Creating forward-looking memories.Grief keeps us anchored in the past—the moments before, the final day, the last words. That's not wrong, but it can feel like we're trapped in a loop.Today's quote gently nudges us toward a different kind of remembering, including forward memory. That's the legacy work. That's telling their story. That's inviting their memory into what comes next.What does forward memory look like for you? It could be a journal, a tattoo, a foundation, or any other form that resonates with you. The choice is yours, and it's a way to honor their memory in a way that feels right for you.Grief is a journey that takes us both backward and forward, and it's okay to live in both directions. It's okay to cherish the past and look forward to the future. You're not alone in this, and it's a part of the healing process.So, remember, grief is not just about looking back. It's also about looking forward. That's your nugget for today.Take a breath. Take what you need. leave the rest. And come back tomorrow because, remember, you're not broken—you're grieving.

"Hello --It is May 21st and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 3: Control & SurrenderDay 21: Today's truth (revisited) is: "I can't go back to yesterday..." Idea: Accepting life as it is now. Let's revisit this truth: You can't go back. And it's cruel — because back there is where your loved one still lived. The pain of this loss is real and valid, and it's okay to feel it. But forward doesn't mean forgetting. Forward means carrying. It means honoring. It means showing the world your resilience and strength. Today, name one thing that remains—a memory, a ritual, a cherished keepsake. A part of your child's spirit is not lost; it's still present in your life, a comforting connection that will never fade. When you share stories or engage in activities they loved, you weave their essence into your ongoing journey. We understand that this journey is not easy. You are not walking away from them. You are walking with them into what's next, embracing both the joy of your memories and future challenges. This ongoing journey is a testament to their enduring legacy that continues to shine through you.So, that's all for now...that's your nugget todayTake a breath. Take what you need. leave the rest.

"Hello --It is May 19th, and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — "You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness."WEEK 3: Control & SurrenderDay 19: Today's truth is: "Everything's got a moral...if only you can find it." Idea: Today, we're exploring the powerful concept of finding meaning in the midst of loss. People love to wrap loss in platitudes. "Everything happens for a reason." "They're in a better place."But let's be honest — not all losses neatly fit into these tidy narratives. Some experiences of grief and loss are messy, complex, and devoid of any clear moral. The moral is how fiercely you love. The true moral of loss often lies in the depth and intensity of the love you cherished for those you've lost. It might also be found in the unexpected connections and communities that rise from the ashes of your grief, reminding you that you are not alone in your sorrow.Remember, this path through grief is a journey, not a destination. Allow yourself the grace to navigate it in your own way, on your own terms. In doing so, you may discover that even amid the pain, there is room for healing, growth, and eventually, a newfound sense of purpose.So, that's all for now...that's the nugget to carry todayTake a breath. Take what you need. leave the rest. And come back tomorrow because, remember, you're not broken—you're grieving. And you're not alone in this madness. ---I'll be right here Talk Soon."AND Here is the Coupon Code: Podcast5 - to use at checkout for 5% offIt is good for BOTH the "Because They Lived" Anthology Info & Submit HERE and The One-on-One Coaching (for moms) HEREBoth coupons good through June 30, 2025 Thank you for listening! - Melissa[P.S...

"Hello --It is May 18th and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You've just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”WEEK 3: Control & SurrenderDay 18: Today's truth is: "If everybody minded their own business..." Idea: Setting boundaries.Oh, the unsolicited advice grievers get can be overwhelming. People have their opinions on how you should grieve or when to move on, and it can all feel so draining. Just remember, you don't owe anyone an explanation for your feelings. Your grief is personal, and it deserves the time and space to unfold in your own way. Take a moment today to set some boundaries. Say no to advice that doesn't serve you. Don't hesitate to ignore a text that feels intrusive or delete a comment that's unhelpful. Get that journal out & practice writing a few responses when people offer unwanted 'help'Breathe and remind yourself that you have every right to protect your peace during this tough time. It's okay to focus on what uplifts you and to navigate your grief on your own terms.So, that's all for now...that's the nugget to carry todayTake a breath. Take what you need. leave the rest.

Send us a textWhen the rain washes out a week of games and the state tournament looms on the horizon, how do you keep your pitching staff ready? For Coach Jason Brandt, the answer might surprise you.Coach Brandt of Wapakoneta High School has crafted one of Ohio's most consistent baseball programs through a philosophy that seems counterintuitive at first glance. "The later we get into the season, the less we practice," he reveals, explaining that rest becomes increasingly precious as tournament time approaches. This season, his team has surged to a 12-1 record despite fielding nine underclassmen among their regular players.The conversation dives deep into the challenges of schedule disruptions and managing young arms during compressed game schedules. But it's Brandt's perspective on coaching evolution that truly resonates. After more than two decades leading the program, he's transitioned from what he describes as a "fiery" young coach to a more balanced leader who understands that "it's just a game and the kids aren't out there trying to lose." This growth hasn't come without memorable moments, including a hilarious story about falling off a bucket in the dugout during a crucial late-inning situation.Beyond tactics, Brandt shares invaluable wisdom for aspiring coaches: conduct honest one-on-one conversations with players about their roles, surround yourself with loyal assistants (three of his are former players), and recognize the critical importance of youth programs in sustaining high school success. His approach has led to five district championships and two state final appearances – proving that sometimes the best coaching happens when you know when to back off and let players shine.Ready to transform your coaching philosophy?

In this episode, I'm diving into a mindset shift that's been life-changing for me and for the moms I coach—moving from productive to purposeful.

In this week's episode of the Money Magic podcast episode, Vangile talks about explore the transformative journey of evolving from the Fixer Money Archetype to the Sovereign One. She delves into the origins of the Fixer archetype and explains how unresolved trauma often manifests as a need to control our environment, particularly within family dynamics. Vangile explains how the need to control is deeply rooted in trauma responses, including feelings of powerlessness, fear, and a desire to avoid vulnerability. She discusses how control may initially create a sense of safety but can have unintended consequences—from fostering dependency and resentment to reinforcing dysfunctional family patterns. These dynamics can block authentic connection, erode boundaries, and perpetuate cycles of over-responsibility and burnout. This episode also examines how the Fixer archetype impacts family relationships, preventing others from developing self-reliance and stifling mutual growth. She also explores the Sovereign archetype as the evolved state of the Fixer. The Sovereign One leads with confidence, trusts themselves and others, sets clear boundaries, and creates relationships built on trust and mutual respect. This is another insightful episode. Tune in!

If they have a hobby that's fun, that hobby is making money for them.” “One of the things a Fixer has to do is heal their God Wound because they have a God complex.” “A true Fixer will work on finding a solution to their income problems and work to make it happen, no matter what.” Additional money trauma resources: One on One Coaching: https://www.wealthy-money.com/coaching Money Magic course: https://www.wealthy-money.com/moneymagic 7 Day Tapping into Ancestral Money Wisdom Training: https://wealthy-money.com/training Let's connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vangilemakwakwa/
In this podcast episode, Vangile talks about the "RunAway archetype" and its transformation into the "Grounded Seeker." Vangile explains the behavioral patterns, core wounds, and healing journey of the RunAway, which involves avoiding uncomfortable financial situations and feelings due to learned trauma responses. The RunAway archetype often manifests through avoidance, escapism, and impulsive spending, leading to cycles of debt and financial instability. The RunAway's transformation involves acknowledging the need for change, practicing self-awareness, and learning to feel safe in the body. The Grounded Seeker archetype embodies stability, presence, and financial awareness, enabling individuals to build generational wealth and improve family dynamics. Vangile emphasizes how the RunAway thrives by developing routines, coming into their bodies and regulating their nervous system. This is another insightful episode. Tune in!

In this podcast episode, Vangile talks about the Destroyer Archetype which is known for rebellion and bringing family secrets to light, often seen as difficult or an outcast. The Destroyer archetype is someone who often rebels against family norms and is seen as a "black sheep." Destroyers carry a strong sense of independence, yet this can lead to feelings of isolation. The Destroyer's journey is often marked by deep wounds, including feelings of abandonment, rejection, and self-doubt. Growing up in chaotic environments can lead to difficulties managing finances. Vangile explains that Destroyers, though often misunderstood, play a crucial role in family dynamics. They bring hidden truths and secrets to light, often disrupting the status quo. This role can be painful but ultimately leads to healing and growth within the family. The Destroyer's wounds of not belonging can create an overwhelming fear of failure, particularly regarding money. This can result in stagnation, where this archetype remains stuck in unsatisfying financial situations. In an effort to feel a sense of belonging or acceptance, Destroyers may overcompensate by spending excessively on material goods or experiences. This is another insightful episode. Tune in! During this episode, you will learn about: [02:08] - Introduction to the podcast [04:00] - Discussion on the destroyer archetype [08:27] – The Destroyer's role in the family [17:32] - Challenges faced by destroyers in following traditional financial advice [20:37] - Introduction to the destroyer archetype's characteristics [24:59] - Importance of the destroyer archetype [30:32] - The independence of destroyers and their challenges in adulthood [35:00] - Importance of healthy conflict initiated by destroyers [39:39] - Core wounds of the destroyer archetype and their financial impact [45:41] - Impact of fear of being too much [49:39] - How fear of rejection affects destroyers' finances [54:02] - The healing journey of the destroyer archetype [58:17] - Releasing thoughts and emotions in the body [01:01:16] - Transition from destroyer to renovator archetype [01:02:39] - Explanation of the renovator's role in the family [01:06:57] - How healing affects destroyers' financial behavior [01:11:18] - The Destroyers' financial transformation after healing [01:19:30] - Information on purchasing the book and accessing resources [01:23:47] - Introduction to one-on-one coaching and its benefits [01:33:47] – Closing remarks Notable Quotes "The destroyer reveals and may actually display all the hidden toxic behaviour in the family, often in a violent and unpleasant manner." "The fixer archetype is the strongest energetically in the family. The second strongest is the destroyer." "Once you understand your archetype and you start to understand your main way of interacting with money, you can start to see when you are being triggered by money.” "We all have different reasons for not being able to make money." "For change to happen, you have to have some chaos. You have to have some friction." “A destroyer that conforms impacts their income because it goes against their soul-patterning around how they are here to make money."

In this episode of the Money Magic podcast, Vangile Makwakwa is focuses on understanding the Sweet One Money Archetype. The Sweet One is empathetic and generous, often putting others' needs before their own. While this makes them caring and compassionate people, it can also lead to financial challenges like debt due to overgiving and struggles with setting boundaries. In this episode Vangile emphasizes the importance of addressing the "not good enough" wound to improve financial behaviour. This involves self-compassion and self-validation instead of seeking external approval. Vangile also explores the challenges Sweet Ones face in pricing their services and seeking salary increases due to fear of judgment and conflict. This discomfort with charging often translates to the Sweet One giving their services away for free or undercharging drastically, which, while temporarily preserving relationships, ultimately leads to financial stress. The Sweet One may even experience guilt for wanting fair compensation (that's a vow of service), perceiving it as selfish or out of alignment with their identity as a giver. Vangile also does an EFT Tapping session on pricing and salary anxiety. This is another insightful episode. Tune in! During this episode, you will learn about: [05:36] - Discussing the sweet one archetype and financial boundaries [07:08] - Explanation of shadow and golden archetypes [11:17] - Definition of the sweet one archetype [17:08] - The sweet one's role in family and financial implications [20:06] - Challenges of pricing and asking for salary raises [24:29] - The sweet one's fear of rejection [28:57] - Importance of boundaries for the Sweet One [34:25] - Working through the not good enough wound [40:15] - Misconceptions about pricing and self-worth [44:31] - Aligning financial goals with personal values [53:01] - Transition from sweet one to boundary one [01:04:16] - Making small incremental changes for financial improvement [01:07:28] - Discussion on repressed anger within the sweet one [01:15:34] - EFT tapping session for pricing and salary anxiety [01:20:03] - EFT tapping session for salary concerns [01:43:22] - Working with sweet ones without exploiting them [01:46:05] - Information on where to buy the book and other resources [02:01:07] - Closing remarks and invitation for further engagement Notable Quotes "The not good enough wound is a wound that we have because of the fear of criticism." "The role of the sweet one is to be the glue in the family." "Anger is one of the top emotions that will block you from receiving money." "What healing is, is it basically creates space for you to be able to take a breath and a breather before reacting." "Boundaries are not just for your family. You should also have boundaries with clients and with regards to your finances."

"Families under oppression develop a survival mindset. They tend to prioritise immediate needs over long-term planning for many reasons." "Poverty trauma can have a negative impact on children's brain development." "Stress makes it difficult for us to focus on long-term goals and can impact our sense of personal power and self-worth." "We need to take into account how historical and cultural impacts of systemic oppression impact us."

In this episode of the Money Magic podcast, Vangile Makwakwa sits down with Tebello Motshwane, an attorney specializing in family law with a focus on marriage. Tebello is also the founder of a platform called Sister-in-law, which is a platform dedicated to empowering women through legal education. Tebello emphasizes the importance of understanding marriage contracts and financial arrangements before marriage. She highlights the dangers of being married in community of property in South Africa, which can lead to shared liabilities and financial complications, advising instead to consider marriage out of community of property with or without accrual. She stresses the importance of having an anti-nuptial contract to protect individual financial assets and liabilities. Tebello also explains that couples should openly discuss finances, including debts, monthly commitments, and financial goals before marrying. She explains that In South Africa, customary marriages, even without registration at Home Affairs, are legally binding. Proper legal procedures should be followed to dissolve such marriages to avoid future complications.

As we are closing out the year, now is the perfect time to clear your clutter and do a big reset. Donate the unwanted clothes, let go of the things that Marie Kondō of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up says no longer bring you joy and start making room for new opportunities. These opportunities can be things you've been dreaming, or even things you may not even have on your radar. Once you start clearing the clutter from your home, digital space and mind, new things are going to present themselves into your life and be part of your path and your dream life. Starting this week, start in one area and keep going. Make it your goal to clean up your space over the next few weeks, creating space and opportunity align the way, but perhaps major shifts in 2025. If you're focusing on your career and money, clean and organize your office. If you're working on health and weight, clean up your kitchen and cupboards, if you're looking to bring more romance into your life, clean your bedroom and bathrooms, you get the point. If you're already a super organized person maybe change things up and rearrange or re decorate. It's time to just shit the energy in our homes and lives.

Welcome to another episode of Brick and Mortar Visibility! Today, we're diving into something that, frankly, a lot of business owners overlook.Do you ever find yourself focusing so hard on attracting new leads that you forget about the goldmine of people who've already raised their hands for your freebie or one-time offer? Those leads are just sitting there collecting dust in your database, waiting to be re-engaged.But what if, instead of chasing new leads, we focused some of our marketing efforts on nurturing those existing contacts? Here's the kicker: re-engaging current customers is so much more cost-effective—five to 10 times less expensive, in fact, than attracting brand-new ones.So, what can we do to tap into this untapped potential? Well, that's why I'm thrilled to have Jason Kramer on the podcast!Jason is the founder of Cultivize, a CRM consulting firm that helps companies identify, nurture, and transform leads into real revenue. With over 15 years of experience running a creative agency, Jason saw firsthand where businesses were missing out—especially in their marketing and sales funnels. So, he launched Cultivize to provide customized CRM solutions for distributors, service providers, marketing agencies, and manufacturers. Jason's expertise helps businesses connect their prospect and customer data with their marketing campaigns and sales activities.When he's not geeking out over CRM strategies, Jason is enjoying family time with his wife, two kids, and two dogs in their vibrant New York home.In today's episode, we'll talk about what to look for in a CRM, how to maximize its value, and hear real-life success stories from clients who've made serious bank by nurturing their current client lists. It's a reminder we all need: your current customers are your best asset. If you're not taking care of them, you're leaving money on the table.And if you're anything like me and you want to really dive into this work over the next 90 days—or maybe you've got a task that's been sitting on your to-do list for way too long—consider joining Level Up, my monthly mastermind. It's a space where we learn, support, and empower ourselves to hit that next level in our businesses.
