[00:00:00] Welcome to Clear Signal. I flew in from the future, recorded an intro to a past episode to tie it all together, and then I'm gonna fly back into the future The prior two names of this podcast were The Aligned Alchemist and The Unscripted Path. If I had to put a Venn diagram together of this podcast be the intersection of the messages about the Unscripted Path, the messages of Clear Signal, and the elements of the Aligned Alchemist.
In season one, which was supposed to drop last episode The original name was Misfit Manifesto and the original episode number was 40. When that episode wrapped, that was the wrap of this Aligned Alchemist phase. We talked about numerology, tarot intuition crystals. Concepts of alchemy, the journey of the tarot. There was an episode that was originally episode eight [00:01:00] that was talking about the tarot and the journey of the alchemist, and the story of the alchemist, and the journey of the entrepreneur, and Aries, and fool, and risk, all tying all of it together.
So that's why I was called the Aligned Alchemist. I still consider myself the Aligned Alchemist. That's not the brand, but I consider myself that. I would say that at the time of this recording, this podcast is an intersection of Clear Signal and The Unscripted Path, and that's why we have stories.
That's why we have storytelling. That's why it's not just tips and tactics and foundational concepts and teaching, 'cause that's not the podcast I want, so I'm not doing that podcast
Alignment is a very played out word in the business space. Alchemist is also a very played out word, but alignment is also a played out word. In 2026, I do an episode about how clarity is a played out word, an episode called Clarity Is Not a Destination, It Is Just a Key to the Next Chapter. If alignment was the word of 2024, then clarity is the word of 2026. What [00:02:00] alignment is in business And entrepreneurship is being able to fly the plane while you're building the plane. And you don't have to share everything that you're doing behind the scenes, but you also don't have to pretend to be perfect that is a lot about what resonance is, that is a lot about what authenticity is, that is a lot about what alignment is in my world. I love that we had a snafu in the Garden episode dropped in talks about the differences between the sacral response, the emotional authority, and intuition, all foundational concepts we discussed in season one with a fabulous story. But also the synchronicities. I was gonna pull that episode back, then a client emailed me that morning saying, "I love this episode." She's the client that was anonymously referenced in that episode, and people loved that episode, and it was a great example of what I'm calling mutative chaos. Mutative chaos is what is [00:03:00] associated with Gate 3. Gate 3 is a gate in the sacral center, so it is otherwise known as, creative chaos. But it is creative chaos before order comes. It's not just chaos for the sake of chaos in the season two opener, which drops on October 13th, I talk about the format energies. The format energies are three: channel of mutation, channel of maturation, and channel of focus.
One of them is the channel 360, and we talk about that next time. And that is important for how I've been creating this project over the last couple years. Beyond that, I have gate three naturally. I don't have the channel naturally, but I have it always.
That is an ability to on the fly birth things, to deal with chaos, to navigate without a map That's really entrepreneurship. At the [00:04:00] time I'm recording this intro, I've done this for 15 years in five different businesses and five different business models over the course of the online world when we went from Instagram to YouTube to TikTok to YouTube Live to podcasting to video podcasting to whatever.
I haven't been involved in all that, and I'm not claiming to be a content creation expert. I'm just saying you're always learning, you're always navigating, you're always figuring it out, especially if you have different business models and different goals. Alignment shows up and it can be a real mess, and you need to be able to figure it out on the fly and deal with it.
Building a plane, flying a plane All of that. That's entrepreneurship. That's how this works I talked about 13 and 31, building your way. Three is creativity, one is foundations And by the way, the reason I came back on 10/13 there is a future episode about foundations that I will drop in the future in season one, we had a lot of [00:05:00] messages. You can change your brand voice. Your stuff doesn't have to be perfect. You can mutate in public. You can be imperfect. You don't have to worry about what other people think. You can focus on people who are gonna love you instead of people who are gonna like you.
You don't have to dim your light. You don't have to listen to every guru and whatever the fuck they say. But also it was about intuitive flow and intuition. This is a case study in that. This episode was a case study in that. Oh, episode dropped in, intuitively I'm gonna keep it on the feed.
Then someone was like, "Oh, I really love this episode," and it was a great example of gate three sacral beings, which was a lot of the theme of season one, it's all about following those nudges, following that sacral response, following that body response. They don't call it intuition. There is a difference. I use them both interchangeably at different times. I'm learning to know what's what, and it's really knowing when the signal is ready, and it's this notion that we don't have to over-plan everything.
There's a bigger picture involved. There's no coincidences in life. [00:06:00] That is the notion of the Aligned Alchemist, the message of the Aligned Alchemist, which is why I would say that the Venn diagram of The Unscripted Path is still there. It's not just a business podcast. It's a business storytelling podcast about the story of entrepreneurship with themes of influence, marketing, messaging, frequency, human design, and eventually neuroscience and other tools in the garden episode, I mentioned the emotion center, I mentioned intuition, I mentioned sacral response. Those are foundational concepts that are great to review.
You're getting experience from client. You're getting experience from multiple different masterminds I've been in from Human Design. You're getting experience from all the different businesses I've had, all the different executive positions I've had, all the books I've had, all the things I've done, 48 years of fucking around and find out, and 20 years in business. I'm a majority of three lines, so I've got episodes about the three lines. I'll link those below. I'm a 5/1, and One of the things the 5/1 does is where there's a problem, it steps in. It's like, "All right, this is a situation.
We're gonna fix this situation. Here's a better solution." And it translates that into something that is usable. [00:07:00] The gate three that I just talked about, that is taking all of that chaos and translating that into something useful creative mutation people who have this gate, myself included, we have an ability to create something that doesn't exist.
We have an ability to bring something new into form. It's messy. It's gonna look messy. Inventorship is messy. It's chaotic. We ride the chaos. We figure it out later. Then you do the operations, then you do the project management, then you do the back end, then you do all of it, then you do all the bells and whistles to make it look perfect.
But at the time, you have to be willing to navigate in the chaos when you're in the chaos. And one of the things that I realized from this episode is I didn't realize other people didn't have that The feedback I got from these episodes that dropped in by accident, which if I tried to look perfect, I would've pulled them back, the feedback I got is, "Wow, you really just figure shit out in the fly and you don't sweat it."
People are like, "I couldn't do that." This [00:08:00] is a tip for you, and I think this is something I said in the season finale, in the show notes, which is that what can you do that other people can't do that you are taking for granted? I can just get on a mic and talk. This whole thing is unscripted, which may not be your style, but it's getting the point across and it's resonating with people I wanna resonate with, how many times have I gotten on a backpack? 10 years of living in New York City, multiple countries, 15 years of entrepreneurship. That is what a lot of people feel. I'm also designed that way, and that is what that gate three is, and that's what I bring to my clients because they don't want the packaged shit. They don't want the packaged, formulated shit. They come to me after they've worked with people where they were like, "This was a giant waste of time."
People who are generic, people who I needed a framework, people who needed a formula, and they were no better off than when they left, minus some dollars. I set you up rooted to win. We talk about gardening, I've mentioned this in other content. You can put fertilizer all day [00:09:00] on a plant. You got root rot, not gonna work, or it's gonna bolt up, it's gonna taste bitter, and then you're out of fruit or plant. I align people in what is gonna make them thrive, and that's done without a formula. It's done rooted in them Gate three is the chaos to order gate. Chaos comes before order. If you try to force everything into order, you cannot create that creative chaos.
You're not gonna invent anything new. This is gate three. It's mutative. You're not behind, you're just in process. You're just building a new plem- template in real time. And if you're doing something that not everybody else is doing, and category of one, there's no roadmap for you.
It's not gonna make sense to other people, and you're gonna be pleased when you get there. But at the time, there's no examples, but when you get where you get, no one else is where you're at. You've literally created a category of one. That is gate three. That is an example of how this ties into a lot of other stuff we've done, [00:10:00] and that is why we have a random garden episode after I said we are stepping away, earlier in the feed, I talked about intuition and Jupiter and Cancer, going with the flow, Something I wanna mention here about gate three is that one is one of my key client attraction gates. In Human Design, you're gonna have a couple gate, key gates that are the frequency resonance that are either gonna attract or repel clients. Something I have learned through doing majority of three lines, which is not related to gate three, that just happens to be the same thing, confusing, is that People are attracted to that energy. And you'd be like, "Wait, people are attracted to chaos?" No. This is not conscious. Magnetic marketing is not conscious.
Resonant frequency is not conscious. This is subconscious. This is something that they're like, "I want someone who can take this thing I have and help me." I call myself a clarity architect. It means that we don't have a map, but I can keep you in the mix while you're building what you wanna build, and [00:11:00] it is a ability that people sense in me to navigate chaos their chaos, which does not mean I'm going to attract chaotic clients.
That is the low side of that. There's a high side and a low side to every gate, and how much in alignment you are is going to affect that. And I share that with you because this is an example of magnetic marketing. If I try to look perfect, which is not the same as looking buttoned up, but in this case, if I try to look perfect I'm not actually gonna attract my clients because I got so much positive feedback from that episode that dropped in by mistake and my way that I handled it, that, my friends, is magnetic marketing.
It is not a magical formula. It is understanding that this shit goes well beyond the tactics that we've been taught Great way to end season one. We'll come back for season two. Four themes of season two are backwards to go forwards, clarity, foundations, [00:12:00] and feminine flow, which I alluded to already in this episode.
I'll see you then
