  • Episode 133: June Energies and Retrogrades With Laura Chung
    I'm back with another solo episode. I wanted to show up, again, as I recorded this on the first day of June; the halfway point of 2021. In this episode, I wanted to share my intentions with this community and how I want to show up going forward. This last lunar eclipse was a doozy. It really illuminated my limiting beliefs about myself and fears that have been simmering in my subconscious. Doing shadow work and going inward can be a very lonely place. It's not for the faint of heart. This is why it's so important to me to remind you that you're not alone. Going through more difficult times in our lives is divinely orchestrated by our Higher Selves and our Spiritual team - I truly believe we are divinely protected and guided. I go more in-depth about this in the episode so hopefully, you'll meet me there.    In This Episode:
    • I have an announcement!
    • The invitation for us during the Mercury and Saturn retrogrades.
    • Healing my lack mentality and shifting to an abundance mindset.
    • What I've learned during these transits and how I've been applying them to my life and business. 
    • Healing is a spiral and each time, you are given the opportunity to heal deeper and gain more wisdom. 
    • June is a month for change and making decisions.
