Hello, welcome back to Claim, your Awesome. I am so appreciative of you, I'm so thankful that you're here and even more so, I want to celebrate you for taking this time for yourself. Truly, the most important thing that you can do is give yourself space and time to do things that nourish your mind, body and soul. It is literally the foundation that will completely transform your life in the most amazing and positive and beautiful ways. So, again, just celebrating you, thanks for taking this time and spending your time with me for a little bit today. So today I want to kind of dive into a few different topics. They all kind of go together. They're all integrated, they, you know, they're all connected. But we're really going to talk a little bit about helping you find clarity, about allowing your gifts, your like inner soul's gifts, to be revealed, what that looks like, and about allowing more magic, grounding into your magic, maybe even waking up to your magic, and how you integrate that and how you live with that knowing, with that power, how you really embody it and integrate it into your daily life. Because we are at this really incredible time in history, in human history, and if you're here, I imagine you can feel this or you have this like knowing deep down inside. Maybe you haven't fully come to completely understand or wrap your brain around what it is exactly, but collectively we are raising our consciousness and as we do that right, as we do that through mindfulness and meditation and healing and whatever other practices out there, whatever practices that maybe you're even doing, as we all collectively raise our consciousness, we are now stepping into this new way of living, this new way of being, this new way of operating, this new way of flowing through our day right, this new way of, I like to say, like dancing with the divine. And now it's really about taking these practices outside of simply the practice of them, outside of simply the practice of mindfulness, simply the practice of meditation, and really embodying that, really integrating that into your daily life and how you show up for yourself, how you show up for your loved ones, how you interact with everyone else in your life. And the more embodied you become, the more embodied you become, the more you integrate this.
Speaker 1:You will truly understand what it means to experience the magic that you came here for, right, the magic in your days, not these really big magical experience that sometimes we think of when we think of this idea of magic, but truly that we are living in the magic at each and every moment. Right, I call it like the magic and the mundane. Right, it's always there because it lives inside of us. There's no separation. And the more we can come back to that connection, come back to that knowing right, come back to our truth, we can feel that magic more and we can live from that place. And when we're living from that place, that's what it really means to embody that.
Speaker 1:And as we embody that, everything around us changes, our relationships, improve Our ability to be more patient with our children, to be more present with them and for them to be more loving, to be more compassionate, to be more empathetic of others. Right, all of these things is in service of the greatest good of all things. Right, and we realize, as we continue to do this work and I don't even want to call it work, because it's not hard, it's not it's so pleasurable, it's so enjoyable, it's like, as we be, as we continue to connect, is really what it is. Right, as we continue to say yes to that desire in our body, in our heart, longing for something deeper. Right, feel into that as I am saying this right, there is a longing. Maybe you have literally manifested everything that you thought you wanted, right?
Speaker 1:I say this all the time, like checked all the boxes, climbing the corporate ladder, whatever it is, but there's still something where you're like, I know, this isn't it, what is it? What else is there? And it's truly that connection that happens when you go inward, right, when we stop looking outside of ourselves, when you go inward and you realize that, literally, life force, energy, is what is pumping through every cell of your being and you connect to that and you connect to that power and you connect to that magic, right, you connect to spirit, to your soul, right, your highest self, whatever word resonates with you, whatever feels good to you, is right, it doesn't matter, it's all the same thing, it's all the energy that lives inside of us that literally wants to pour through you in the way that is the most expansive for you, right? In a way where you're like I am following what lights me up and it feels so good, like that is the magic. It's not some big thing, right? So, really, truly, are you actively integrating this work? Are you actively embodying this work? Right?
Speaker 1:Because it is so lovely to meditate and have these very calm, relaxed moments of stillness, first thing in the morning, right Now. Now is the time right. Especially, we're in Taurus. Right, taurus is super grounded, super earthy. Now is the time to ground into these practices, to embody these practices. Are you doing that? Or, again, there's no judgment here, right, there's never any judgment. I will say this a thousand times stop judging yourself and your life will start to change. Simply by doing that, simply by reconnecting to your truth, which is love. Right? So, when we stop judging ourselves, we start giving love back to ourselves and we reconnect to that.
Speaker 1:Okay, so, as I say this, no, it is truly from a place of invitation. Right, like really wanting to call you forward, because that is what your soul is guiding you to. Like, what are your highest potentials? Right? So, as I say this again, are you doing a meditation practice? Are you going to yoga? Are you doing something nourishing for you, but then you're not continuing to integrate it. What do I mean by that? So, say, you do a meditation practice, but then, throughout the day, you're choosing to suffer. Yep, I said choosing. You're choosing to suffer. You're choosing to get frustrated when someone in your office triggers you. You're choosing to get frustrated when someone cuts you off driving down the road. Right, we have choice. Each and every moment we have the choice, and that's what it really means to ground and integrate this work right.
Speaker 1:When we meditate, when we go to yoga, when we do a workout, right, whatever it is that we're doing, we can access that joy, that excitement, that peace, that calm at any moment. So now, this is the time, this is the real work. This is really what the magic is. It's being more intentional, being more mindful, knowing that, okay, I can slow down when I'm feeling stressed and I can really ground into this moment by being fully present with this right, recognizing that we're frustrated again, not judging it, allowing ourselves to see what's under the surface of that. That's when we transmute that right. Like that's when the shift happens and the change happens. So we're no longer going on autopilot or even thinking oh, I did my meditation in the morning. Now it's like back to just normal craziness of the day. No, right, like that, that is what we're shifting out of. Now we're shifting into this. I'm ready to embody this work that I'm doing. I'm ready to really connect to the magic and the power that lives inside of me. And what does that want to reveal? What does that want to reveal through me? What is the wisdom there? What is the light there? What is the love there?
Speaker 1:Simply looking at where you are not doing this in your life. When I talk about the energy that lives inside each and every one of us, part of your choice each and every day is how you choose to use that energy. Is how you choose to use that energy, right? Is that energy being sucked away by doing things that don't light you up, by people pleasing, by not having healthy boundaries, by again doing these things that don't make you feel good? Right? That's the simplest way to put it.
Speaker 1:At the end of the day, are you beat down and exhausted from the day, or are you lit up by the love that you poured into your day? In whatever way, that looks for you, right? This could be like just going all in, using all your love to make healthy meals for your family, homeschool your kids. Whatever that looks like, right? It looks different for each and every one of us, as it should, because we're all here with our own gifts, with our own message, with our own journey. Right? It should look different for each and every one of us, so stop comparing your life to someone else's. Look different for each and every one of us, so stop comparing your life to someone else's. Okay, what feels good to you and are you saying yes to more of that?
Speaker 1:At the end of the day, how do you feel? Do you feel like you gave everything you had, but in a way that still feels alive and invigorating and joyful? Right, not where we feel depleted, but we are so grateful for what we were able to give, how we were able to give. That's the difference. When we are connected truly to our truth, living as the most authentic versions of ourselves, sharing our gifts with the world, with our families, with our friends, in whatever way that looks like for us, the supply of energy feels endless, right, I don't mean we're going to like stay up 24 hours a day and we're going to keep going. I don't mean that. But you don't feel depleted. It's when you get through the day and you're just like, oh my gosh, I can't bear another second. I feel so depleted, I feel so overwhelmed. Right, you're not connected. You're not connected to that life force, energy, and it's time to reconnect. It's time to reconnect. It's time to go inward, right and see what wants to pour through you.
Speaker 1:Where do you need to follow your bliss more? What is your highest path? Are you stepping on that path or are you bypassing it? Or are you trying to control? Like I'm not going down that path, like it feels really scary. It might be the highest path for me, but I have all these fears and blocks and resistance, so I'm not going to say yes to that. I'm going to just keep trying to control my life instead of allowing to just be in the flow of life. That's all it gets to be right, like we just get to flow with the day, the good and the bad, and when we see that truly it's working out and we don't need to try to control, we let go of some of that resistance. We experience the magic each and every day.
Speaker 1:And you might be listening to me and thinking this is just completely insane. I can't let go of control. I can't do that. That feels way too scary.
Speaker 1:Okay, then start there. Right, if those are the thoughts and beliefs that are coming up for you, that is perfect. That's exactly where you need to be. That's the exact thought you need to have. What about that feels scary? What about that lack of control scares the hell out of you of control scares the hell out of you. Right? Keep going deeper. Depending on when you're listening to this, mercury is still in retrograde, right? Allow whatever message wants to be revealed to you, right? There are still things that need to be revealed that you can then release and work through. Okay, and again, we, we invite them. Right, we don't judge them. It's always in service to us and our highest good.
Speaker 1:So, again, where are you not fully connected? Where are you not fully living in alignment? Connected? Where are you not fully living in alignment? And it gets to be as simple as taking really small baby steps. That's what it means to integrate this work. That's what it means to embody this work.
Speaker 1:Am I saying yes and trusting myself? Am I saying yes and trusting myself? Am I saying yes and trusting life? Am I saying yes and trusting the oneness of all things, god, my higher self, the universe? Again, whatever resonates with you. But you have to say yes to begin the dance with the divine right. Yes, and in some ways you're going to get thrown in, right? You're already doing that, right? The dance has already begun. But it gets to be magical, it gets to be more fun when you say yes to it. Right, and you're an active participant in the dance, right, that's what it means to be co-creating. Right, you say yes to something, you take action. Right, that's what it means to be co-creating. Right? You say yes to something, you take action, right. Maybe you're just starting to have these ideas and insights bubbling up inside of you and you feel it, right, like there's maybe a surge of energy, maybe coming off of this eclipse on April 8th. Maybe some new ideas are coming to you, ways in which you're thinking of pivoting or transformation. Right, all of these new things bubbling up inside of us.
Speaker 1:Are you saying yes, even if that feels scary? What? Could you simply just allow yourself to be curious with whatever's wanting to come up? Right, you don't have to go all in and commit if that feels really scary, right. If the pivot or the transformation or something new feels really scary, you don't have to go all in right now, right, but can you start the dance? But can you start the dance? Can you maybe daydream on a new opportunity, a new possibility? Can you just start to go on your own little journey of?
Speaker 1:Hmm, what would this look like if I said yes, right, maybe something that simple. I said yes, right, maybe something that simple. Allowing yourself to see yourself or your life or a certain circumstance or situation in a new way opens up the next door. It illuminates the next step forward. Right, it gets to be that easy. And again, as you're saying yes to this, as you're kind of taking one step and putting another one in front of it, and things illuminate, you're like, huh, that's so interesting.
Speaker 1:Right, you have to do this work. I love you and I love that you're listening to this podcast and you're spending this time with me. And now this is the invitation to start doing this work. This is the invitation to start integrating this for yourself. Right, don't just listen to what I'm saying. Do it for yourself, experience it for yourself. Take action right yourself. Experience it for yourself. Take action, right, take action where it doesn't make logical sense, but there's something deep inside calling you and it like won't shut up until you take action. Right, there's a deeper knowing that wants to guide you. Right, you have your own unique gifts that want to pour through you. You have your own unique wisdom and experience and love and light and magic that literally wants to pour through you, wants to pour through you. It needs to move through you, not just for you, but for everyone else involved, because the more each of us do this work, the more each of us embody what truly lights us up, and we follow that. We pave the way for every other person to do that as well.
Speaker 1:We naturally and organically support other women to give themselves permission to say yes to themselves, and that is literally what will change the world. It's what will change your life in the most profound ways, in the lives of everyone around you. It's what will change your children's lives, right? You, being a conscious, loving, present parent, I mean that is the freaking greatest gift we can give any of our kids. Right, but it starts with you. So where can you allow these gifts of yours to come through right? Where are you repressing them? Where is their resistance around them? Where is their fear around them? Again, use all of this as an invitation. Where is their resistance around them? Where is their fear around them? Again, use all of this as an invitation.
Speaker 1:I hope that as you're listening to this, or as you've listened to any other episode, or maybe just something new will click and it will propel you forward or propel you into action in a new way, in a way that feels really good and alive for you. So often women come to work with me and they don't. They say they don't have clarity, right, they don't have clarity around what they want. They maybe feel like something's missing, they want something more, but they don't have clarity, right, clarity is huge. You might even see like everyone's talking about clarity these days, right, everyone wants clarity.
Speaker 1:But this is the thing that I find you don't need clarity, you already have clarity. You need connection, Because the second you connect, you feel the trust inside of you. You feel the connection to something bigger than yourself, and the second you're connected to that is the second you start to allow those insights right, that inner guidance, the voice from spirit, your highest self, again to be channeled through you, telling you the exact path that you should take to have the life that you want to have. But we're all like, nope, don't have clarity, right, I don't know what I want, right, instead of just trusting. But when you connect, you can start to trust because you feel that, you feel the safety and the security. And it's bigger than that. It's like the power and the magic and the excitement, the enthusiasm. You have to reconnect. You have to reconnect. When you do that, the clarity comes, the trust comes right Again.
Speaker 1:So many women they say they don't have clarity. But they're not just. They're just not trusting themselves. And maybe you're not either. Right, because it feels really scary, because we have all these stories and beliefs and thoughts that we've been telling ourselves our whole lives, that some of them we're not even realizing, how pervasive they are, how much they're ruling our day, how much they've actually created the reality that we're currently living.
Speaker 1:And it takes that connection, it takes reconnecting to our own truth, hearing that you know that higher self tell us wait, it's time to slow down. It's okay for you to trust yourself. It's okay for you to trust life. We know what you want. We've got you right. We've got you and we want you to have the most beautiful experience while you are here on this earth. So are you doing that? What does that most beautiful experience look like? Can you let go of how you're going to get there and instead trust that it's already working out for you, that you just need to allow yourself to be in the flow, allow yourself to reconnect to your own inner wisdom, your intuition. Let that guide you, that is so powerful, doing that practice each and every day, following the big nudges and the small ones.
Speaker 1:The more you do that right, the sweeter and more fun and more magical this dance gets, because now it's like oh, she's trusting, she's open, she's open to receive everything that we want. She's no longer resisting, right, she's no longer trying to control how this all unfolds, she's allowing it to be beautiful and fun. So let me give her a life that is beautiful and fun and magical, right, and that's really what it gets to be. So, again, just using this as an invitation where do you want to bring more intention into your life? What in your life is maybe calling your attention? Right, and this is where it's so important to really be embodied, to really start to integrate that work, because this is where do I want to be more intentional in my life? From a place of love, from a place of being truly connected to my truth, right, this is not what needs my intention or what needs my attention. From a place of fear and lack, right, because when we're connected to fear and lack, what we think needs our attention is very different, right, and this is about where your soul is guiding you, right? So we want to connect to that guidance from our soul, and that doesn't happen in fear and lack. Right, our soul is love, so we connect to that. We connect to, again, the love that wants to pour through us and each of us.
Speaker 1:Our season in life and things that are going on in our lives can all look very different, right? So get really honest with yourself, right? There's no right or wrong answer when it's your truth, okay. So maybe in this season, you really feel like you're being called to bring your attention and intention back to, maybe, quality time with family and being really present for them. Maybe your intention is to be more nourishing for yourself, right, giving yourself more space and grace and time. Nourishing your body, right, nourishing your mind. Right, sit with that.
Speaker 1:Even just as I'm saying this, what's coming up for you? Notice it. This is why it's so important to slow down. If we're constantly just like on the hamster wheel, not slowing down, we can't hear our own inner guidance. So what is that telling you? Right, as I'm speaking, maybe there's like little pings going off, right, little intuitive hits.
Speaker 1:Maybe this message is really resonating and you're like, yes, this is what I need. I need to be more intentional. Where does my intention need to be right, like? You can just start to question. Right, like have that inner dialogue with yourself Again. Have it from a place of love, not from a place of judgment, not from a place of fear, not from a place of beating ourselves up because coulda, woulda, shoulda haven't been doing this Again. We don't need that right. We can recognize why that's there and how that has served us right.
Speaker 1:Oftentimes we think if we judge ourselves, it motivates us into action and unfortunately we couldn't be further from the truth, because the second you stop judging yourself, the second you start forgiving yourself, the second you start loving yourself. That is the magic. That is what starts to shift everything, truly, truly, truly. That is what starts to shift everything truly, truly, truly. I mean, you can look at it for yourself. How long have you been judging yourself for not doing something right? How's that working out for you right? Are you making progress? Is it propelling you? Maybe it will for a short amount of time, but it doesn't feel good, leads to burnout and more stress and more overwhelm. Right, there just gets to be an easier way. And if this doesn't resonate with you like, that's also fine. You can do it your way as long as you want. This is just simply an invitation. It's simply an invitation because I think if you're still listening, you're still here.
Speaker 1:You feel this too. You feel that we are connected to something bigger. You feel the connection deep inside. Maybe you're not even like consciously saying, okay, there's a connection there. You just feel something deep inside. You feel this desire for more. You feel a desire that life shouldn't feel this way. Life shouldn't be this way. There has to be more. Right, we are capable of so much more than we even know. We're not even giving ourselves credit for what we do, let alone all the infinite ways that we still are able to reach our highest potentials.
Speaker 1:And again, in this season, in this moment, let that guide you. What wants to bubble up, what maybe is already starting to bubble up within you? Right, I don't know. Maybe you want to write a book and you just like can't put that idea down. Maybe you haven't even said it out loud to anybody, but it's just like bubbling up and you're like I just know I need to do that. Right, then start doing that. If you're not doing that, ask yourself why. Right, there is always opportunity to release the very things that are holding us back.
Speaker 1:And it is truly when we integrate this work, when we embody the magic that lives inside of us and we take action, not even just and we take action when we embody it through how we show up, through how we live our life, through how we go through the day, right Through who we are deciding to be in this moment, as it relates to who we are becoming, as it relates to our highest self, the best version of ourselves I don't even necessarily like to use like best version right, who you are now is exactly who you're meant to be right now. But those next evolutions of you, the more expansive version of you, right, can you take action always, even if it's tiny, even if it's just one small step each and every day in that direction of your highest self. That is the magic. Truly, it feels so good, it feels so good to give ourselves permission and take action and show up for ourselves, right? Yes, we love the result. Yes, we want to manifest success in a variety of ways. And also, we forget, or we have allowed ourself to be tricked into thinking, that the magic is in the result, but it's really in who we're becoming along the way. It's really in showing ourselves that we trust ourselves, in letting go of control, in allowing that magic to live through us. Right, it's so fun.
Speaker 1:So where are you choosing? So where are you choosing to not give yourself this level of joy, right? Is it simply because you don't believe it's possible for you? Maybe you haven't fully allowed yourself to trust life or trust yourself, right? Again, there's no judgment here. It's always just an invitation for you to dive deeper into hmm, what is that? Why am I not showing up for myself in that way? What am I afraid of? Why don't I think I'm worthy of that? Again, it's just an invitation, because the further you allow yourself to understand what's behind these stories, right, what's keeping you from really fully being connected to your truth? When you start to awaken to all of that, that's like the very catalyst alone that allows it to start to change. Right, and it gets to be easier because you're just allowing yourself to do the work. Right, we're not even, you know, we're letting go of the resistance of even doing the work. Sometimes even just the work alone is so scary.
Speaker 1:But again, if this resonates with you, if you needed to hear this message, where are you integrating this? How are you integrating this? How are you embodying this? Have you not been embodying that right? And why not Get into action. Follow what feels good. Like what if it just got to be that easy that you felt like you just allowed yourself to follow what lights you up, to follow what feels good, to follow your intuition right. It truly gets to be that easy and we're all connected to this. We all have access to this.
Speaker 1:It's just a matter of whether or not we're going to give ourselves permission to say yes, if we're willing to let go of some of that control, or if we're going to keep going through life trying to make everything happen in the way that it should. But what if the other way is so much better than we could ever imagine? And by trying to control, we're limiting that magic, we're limiting the magic that we want to experience. So where can you let go of some of the control? Where can you just again trust yourself? Let go of some of the control. Where can you just again trust yourself? Trust that whatever wants to come up for you is what needs to be here. Trust that that inner guidance is the wisest, you know, the wisest guidance you would ever need to listen to and just play around with that and have more fun.
Speaker 1:And you'll start to realize, the more you do this, the more you embody this, the more you integrate this work, you start to realize that the magic is already here. Right, of course it's already here because we're connected, right, it's part of us, it's who we are, but it's also already here in this very moment. And the more we connect to it in each and every moment, like there are then bigger magical moments as well, right, and we just get to be in flow of all of it and just like riding the wave and, you know, just watching it, not being so absorbed by it, not letting it ruin our day, right, just riding the wave and just being in the flow of life. Bring your attention today. What intentions do you want to start to get really clear on? Right? Where do you want to be more intentional? What is keeping you from your attention in those areas, right? What is keeping you from saying yes? What is keeping you from not being intentional? Right?
Speaker 1:So often it's like we're stuck on this time race, like we just don't have enough time, we can't do all the things right, so we're just stuck in our mind about how we don't have enough time, and that's just the story, then that plays out in our physical reality. Because if our thoughts create our beliefs, which create our reality, if we keep telling ourselves we don't have time and there's so much to get done and we can't be intentional, yada, yada, yada, like of course, that's what's going to show up in our reality. So maybe simply the easiest place to start is being intentional with a few moments of your time. Where can you bring more presence? Where can you bring more spaciousness? Where can you bring stillness to your day? What if five minutes of stillness bought you three more hours in your day? Bought you five more hours in your day?
Speaker 1:Right, when we get still, when we open ourselves to intention, when we open ourselves to receive the insights and the ideas that want to flow through us, there's so much wisdom in there. There's so much more wisdom that maybe something you've been stuck on, an issue, a problem, something you've been contemplating, something that you just can't quite figure out, that's taking up so much mental energy right, that's the time suck, right, it's like this mental energy that's taking up, but now, because you've given yourself five minutes of space and stillness, holy cow. A new solution pops into your mind and it's like a no brainer and it just works and it's so easy. Have you ever been, you know, really frantic, running late for some somewhere? Like looking for your keys and you just can't find them? And they're like you're all over your house tearing things apart trying to find your keys and you just can't find them. And then finally it's like you slow down and you just take a deep breath and you're like, okay, let me just breathe for a second. And then they're like right on the counter, right next to you, right?
Speaker 1:It's like the same idea we're not giving ourselves the space to see the solutions that are right in front of us, that want to make life so much easier for all of us. Right, because we're caught up in the belief and, yes, I understand that people have busy lives and kids and activities and jobs and all of these things. However, it does not mean that you cannot find 10 minutes in the morning to sit down and set the intention that today things get to be easier, that today you feel like you have more space in your day, that today you have more clarity, you have more ease, you flow through your day with purpose. Right, set those intentions each and every day and see what happens, see how you shift, how you start to feel as you flow through the day. Don't just listen to me, say these words. Put it into practice.
Speaker 1:If this doesn't resonate, right, like there are gazillion practices out there, but they're all rooted in the same thing, right, they're all rooted in mindfulness and connection. That is the power of this work, right, it's so simple, but it takes your commitment, it takes your decision to say yes, I know that I'm here for something more and I want to experience the life of magic that I came here for, and I'm going to prioritize myself and I'm going to give myself permission and I'm going to trust myself and I'm going to keep showing up. I'm going to let go of some of the control, right, I'm going to see just how beautiful life gets Like that's, how simple it gets to be. But it does take a commitment from you to do the work and show up. Right, and again, I keep using this word work, which I need to come up with a new word, because it's not work.
Speaker 1:It's, I feel like, it's relief, it feels good, it's like, oh my gosh, I don't have to control everything. Hallelujah, right. It's like oh, that feels so good that I get to just witness this day, that I get to experience this day, that I get to be in the flow with this day. I don't have to control it, I don't have to make things happen. I don't have to control it, I don't have to make things happen. Everything's working out for me, right. Doesn't that just feel good?
Speaker 1:And again, I know some of you might be listening and be like it can't be that easy. I have to control because I have to make money and I have to do this and I have to do that. Right, question those beliefs. That's where you can start. And you can start small. If it feels really scary, just start small. Start small with trusting yourself, making little decisions here and there, where you trust yourself and you trust that inner wisdom, that inner guidance, that intuition that's calling you. Just start small and test it. And again, the more you do this, the more you will see the magic in every single moment, every single day. And it gets to be just that fun. It gets to be that fun, right. Follow what lights you up. Allow those gifts that you've been repressing and hiding to bubble up, that want to pour through you. Right, get really curious around what those are.
Speaker 1:This is the time the season is literally calling you to say yes to your highest potentials. And the fastest way to experience that, the fastest way to do that work, is to start to say yes and get into action. Right, even when it feels scary, even when it doesn't make logical sense. Right, what are you leaving on the table? Right, if you keep saying no to this, right, it's going to just keep being there, just eating at you. So you may as well just let go a little bit and test it and have fun in a way that feels really good to you all, right, so I I hope this serves. I hope this message resonates with you.
Speaker 1:Again, this is the time to really ground into this work. Ground into how can I bring more presence to my day? How can I be more mindful in the day? How can I do the things that feel really nourishing? How can I let whatever lights me up to pour through me for everyone else? How can I set healthier boundaries? How can I create more intention and space and really feel like I'm in flow with the day? Right, just all questions. Again, I'm just throwing things out there so you can see what resonates. I'm saying all these things so that my intention is something will click with you, something will resonate and you're like, yes, this is what I needed, like this is maybe the permission I needed or something. Maybe there's just like a new insight that's coming up for you through my words. Right, and that's what I want, because I feel like my gift is literally just to channel all of this information as I was sitting down. I think I've said this before.
Speaker 1:Sometimes I have very clear things about what I want to talk about and then other days I just let whatever wants to flow through, come through, and I always ground myself for a few minutes before hopping on here and just say the message, whatever the message is that needs to come through me, just like, let me allow that, right, because I know that it's not my message, it's your message, right, it's like the message that needs to be channeled. My message, it's your message, right, it's like the message that needs to be channeled through me. It's a message that needs to flow through me and it's so powerful because I know it will serve, right, I know one piece will serve one person and that alone would make a huge ripple effect in the world. So see what resonates, see what lights you up, see what's getting you excited, right, and keep following that. Keep doing that.
Speaker 1:Now you're like, okay, I'm feeling lit up, I'm feeling excited. What is that? What is this expansive feeling that I have? What's under that? What is this calling me to do? What are these gifts that want to come forward? Have I not been allowing them? Now is the time to allow them. Literally, now is the time to allow them.
Speaker 1:I am giving you all of the permission, right, if you are hearing this message and you have something deep inside that you haven't been allowing to come through you a gift, a message, wisdom, whatever it is, an idea, right, an idea for a book or a podcast or a business, or whatever that looks like. You're hearing this message for a reason and now is your time. Now is your time to start saying yes to the desires on your own heart. It just it has to be right. It just has to be that way Because, again, this will change your life when you start to say yes to this, and it will change the life of everyone around you and everyone else that gets to witness you, that gets to experience your gifts, right.
Speaker 1:Maybe you wanna open a cupcake shop? Right, and you know that those cupcakes will bring joy to so many people. Right, we just need more joy. We need more people feeling really good, following their own bliss, feeling inspired to live in more joy. Right, because when we are all allowing ourselves to be in that vibrational state holy cow, can you even imagine what we will, individually, as well as collectively, be capable of? And, selfishly, that's the world I want to see. Right, I know I say selfishly and I know it's for the greatest good of all, but oh my gosh, can you just imagine a world like that, where everyone truly gets to follow their passion? Right, and we need each and every one of you to be courageously doing that so that you can show someone else that it's possible for them too, so that you can pave the way for someone else, so you can support another woman in giving them permission. That's what it's all about, right? Let's all rise together. There is no competition, there is no better than or worse than, right. We're just all on our own individual journeys, and then we wake up to that deeper connection inside and realize that we're actually all connected. There's no separation, so let's stop living as if there is and come back to the connectedness of all things. Right, the oneness of all things. It's so beautiful, all right.
Speaker 1:So, again, I hope this resonated with you. I hope that this sparks something inside of you that says, yes, I know what I need to do. I know what I want to do and I hope that you take action. And if you're not taking action, if you're like I know what I want to do but I'm still stuck, send me a message, reach out to me. I'm happy to do like more of a deep dive, you know, into some blocks and some subconscious blocks and how to clear them. Right, I can do a whole episode on that. I can, you know, connect with you. Let me know where you're at. I love to hear from you. I love to hear from each and every one of you. If you feel called, you can share in the comments something and I can reach out to you there and connect with you there.
Speaker 1:Couple of other things going on If you are local to the Philadelphia area, I am going to start hosting monthly women's circles. So these are going to look a little bit different every month, right? Sometimes they might be centered around the full moon or new moon. Sometimes it might be more of a workshop event. Again, it will just be whatever wants to be channeled through me at that time, but again, always in service of your highest good. So, if that feels true to you, if that feels exciting, if that feels like yes, I want to be in connection with other women. I want to deepen into my own spiritual practices. I want to wake up the gifts that feel like they're inside of me and I don't think I have clarity around them, and I want to bring them out into the world. I wanna say yes, I wanna be giving myself permission. If any of that sounds true to you, I'll leave a link down below and in the show notes so that you can connect with me there. There will be a limited amount of spaces, so if you're interested, reach out Again. I'll include the link and what else is going on.
Speaker 1:Last thing I am starting a new group program that I am super excited about. It's a three month group program called Everyday Magic, and it's really about doing this work. It is about integrating this work for yourself. It's about waking up to your own magic, it's about embodying your magic, it's about living this magic and it's really about slowing down, to go fast. Right, each week we are diving deep so that we can do the integration, because the integration is everything. And, as I said, this is exactly where we're being called right now. Right, where we're being called to not just do the meditation practice for the sake of being in peace during the meditation practice. We're being called to now bring that with us through the day, embody that. How can we live from that place? What are we creating from that place, from this place of connection? What new ideas and thoughts and insights want to move through us? Right, there is so much wisdom there. So that is what, what everyday magic is? It's a three-month group program. There's weekly modules along with live weekly calls so you can be in community and connection and support with other women doing this work, and that is going to start may 21st. So, again, I'm going to leave the link for that as well, if you're curious. Right now it's just there's a waitlist link, if you're interested, and get on that waitlist so I can send you emails and let you know more information as we get a little bit closer.
Speaker 1:So, again, whether it's with me or with someone else, my real desire and my real hope is that these messages resonate with you and that these messages inspire and ignite something inside of you. Maybe you like the message, but you're like, just not that into me, right, and that's totally fine. Find someone that you're really into and that you're like yes, I love the message she's sharing and just go into this work. Go all in on yourself, dive really deeply into this work. You have the magic inside of you. Keep going on your own journey. It's so much more beautiful. You're just scratching the surface and I want you to experience a life beyond your wildest imaginations. So do what lights you up right, follow the nudges, trust yourself right and again, thank you for joining me here. I will see you next week and I hope you have a beautiful day. Reach out to me, let me know how things are going. Thanks, talk to you guys soon.
