Conscious Conversion

In our cultural conversations about business and entrepreneurship, it often feels like there's no room for the vibration of love, gratitude, joy and spaciousness. Business owners can feel forced to fit into a narrow identity, which can be incredibly limiting and even toxic.

The great thing about how the world is shifting is that we can choose our own narrative, and live and run our business by it.

How can we create a business that prioritizes high vibration, empathy and connection?

Why are we running our businesses differently to how we've been taught?

In this episode, I'm joined by fellow high vibe entrepreneur and Facebook Ads expert, Jennifer Spivak. We talk about how we're choosing to refine business and centering our work around what feels good and right.

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

- Why coronavirus didn't stop our work In response to the coronavirus crisis traditional business advice was for us to pause, pull back and go into hiding, but the effect of not working was overwhelmingly negative. Providing joyful work and abundance for our clients and teams is a huge responsibility that drives us to find alternate ways to keep working.

- How a solid business can still be heart centered We can have a business that's centered on love, joy, warmth and gratitude while still having systems, structure and accountability. We don't have to choose one side or the other.

-The power of working from the mindset of abundance A lot of the traditional advice we're given in business comes from a place of scarcity, fear, and protecting ourselves from people taking advantage of us. If we work with people because we vibe with them, and we're in alignment with them from the start, we won't need to be so defensive.

Our society is caught in a conundrum that makes it impossible for us to end our own suffering. Many people who are looking outside of themselves for healing, causing even more pain and confusion.

It's common, but also dangerous to look for something to blame, someone to give us permission and direction or some sort of quick fix. This takes us in the opposite direction of true healing.

Blame and fear are opposite of self-empowerment and self-healing. The journey of healing requires us to go within, and to create a new vision by sifting through what already exists internally. We need to practice self-responsibility. Why is it so important to the whole world that we take care of ourselves more wisely and compassionately? In this episode, I'm honored to be joined by esteemed wisdom healer Master Mingtong Gu. He talks about the practises and principles that are vital in the times we're living in.

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

- Why self-responsibility is criticalThe missing piece in our healing is self-responsibility and looking inward instead of outward. The deeper cause of suffering is a lack of a greater responsibility for our emotional and mental states, reactions and behaviors.

- Why we need a collective energetic channelWe don't access energy effectively with just our personal commitment. We access energy effectively and wisely by connecting with a collective purpose and presence which has no boundary.

- The connection between old struggles and a new visionLetting go of the past is difficult, we have so much attachment and identification to it. In order to start living a new vision, we have to first heal from the old. Where we were before comes with its own behaviors, patterns, obstacles and zones of comfort. Moving into a new vision is challenging because we have to unlearn all of these self defeating elements.

Right now the vibration of this planet is shifting at such a high and powerful intensity, that every conscious being is tapping into its energy.

With our regular routines broken, we've become more attuned to what's happening in the moment. It has created a collective awareness and a space for us to grow as individuals and as a society.

Some call what we're living through a revolution, but it's important that we set the right intention with this potent energy. The words we use to describe these times have a huge impact on our outcomes, as they cast their own spells and fulfill their own purposes. What we need right now is the cadence and intention of evolution, because this will take us in the right direction.

How has creative work become more pertinent in these times? Why is collective intention so powerful in making real change happen? In this episode, I'm joined by performance artist and storyteller, Christiano Can. We talk about how the earth is shifting and how we can, and should, respond to it.

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

- Why acknowledgment matters to every human being

It's an indescribable emptiness to not be acknowledged, or for people to be indifferent towards us. Most people are looking for some sort of acknowledgement, even if it's just being heard.

- Revolution vs. Evolution

There's a difference between revolving and evolving. In the former, all we're doing is repeating old patterns; this is what the world has maintained for generations. In the latter, we're allowing things to continue to change with exponential growth. Evolution allows us to end the old and usher in the new.

- Why looking inward isn't selfish

With the world going through a shift, now is the time to also shift ourselves internally. It's more important now to focus on knowing and growing yourself. Learn how to breathe, go within, find out what triggers you and what your traumas are and also discover what you love and brings you joy.

Anyone who connects with people on the mindset and psyche level has a great moral responsibility. There has to be a commitment to protecting the minds, hearts and souls of the people they help, while still creating the transformation that they desire. 

They need to create massive change without destabilizing people, and then safely guide them into action. Simply put: the practice and programs we create need to be safe spaces. 

We can’t just be great marketers and salespeople. It has to go beyond the surface level and singular points of advice. We cannot do this kind of work if our ethical standards are unbalanced. 

Sadly the current market and the people operating within it tend to fall short of this standard. Right now with so many people needing help, we need to understand what true mindset mastery looks like. 

Why are surface level mindset experts so dangerous to the human psyche? How can we collectively raise the bar of mindset training? In this episode, mindset disruptor, Kelly Sullivan Ruta talks about the work she’s doing to promote ethical mindset coaching. 

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

- What mindset mastery means 

True success in mindset is about mastering yourself, learning how to evolve and overcome your own deeply rooted self limitations. We need to do it in a strategic and science-based way that creates long-term change.  

- Why the most qualified people sometimes don’t promote themselves

Many of the most qualified people don’t step up and promote what they do. They’re carrying limiting beliefs about visibility and whether they can feel safe putting themselves out there. Being verbal or open was deemed unsafe to them at some point in their history, and they did not fully resolve that psychologically.  

- How to reach our full potential 

If we’re not willing to face the darkness and do what it takes to access the light, then you’re not going to become who you have the potential to be, whether that’s in your business or your personal life.

When you're in alignment with the Universe you learn that there's duality everywhere in this world, even in our own businesses. Alignment comes from finding our center within these opposing forces. Finding that balance is a spiritual practice all of its own.

We channel soul and heart-driven messages but we also use systems to scale them and allow them to reach more people. Our businesses require both intuitive feminine energy and execution-driven masculine energy to grow.

As spiritual entrepreneurs, we can fall into the trap of thinking every part of running our business will always feel good and just flow naturally. But another type of balance we need is not only doing what feels positive but also committing to the parts that require more work and grit.

How do we find the balance in our businesses so we're always coming from an authentic place but still taking action? How do we overcome fear and give our businesses the space to grow and evolve?

In this episode, I'm joined by entrepreneur author, and founder of The Make It Show, Jenna Herbut as she talks about balance, routine and duality in business.

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

- Why it's normal for some parts of our businesses to feel more challenging

Things feeling good shouldn't be the only barometer in our business because this mindset can hamper action and ultimately growth. If we wait to only take action when things feel good, we won't get anything done. Sometimes we'll have to do things that aren't in our comfort zone, and it won't always flow or feel like it's in alignment at first.

- How to build in systems to sustain the effectiveness of what we create

When we are deeply aligned with what we're doing and coming from a genuine place, it shows. It's an attractive and effervescent force that makes people want to get on board. We can't always create content from this place, and that's where we need to have systems like Facebook ads or books that capture that magic for eternity.

- Why channeling requires us to get out of the way of the message

When we're running a truly channeled business that's in service to humanity, the most important part is our message. We serve more when we focus on what people actually need and what touches as many of them as possible.

One of the most beautiful things about the work we do is that if we keep asking to be of service to the universe, we will keep rising to the next level.

We get to co-create with the Universe and get to a place where it's not about ourselves anymore, but about a higher purpose.

When we put out this type of energy, it pays itself forward and back around to us, so we'll always receive abundance. In order to do all this, we need to prioritize our own joy so that we always have an overflow that helps us inspire and stay inspired.

How do we create a mental and emotional state of abundance so that we're aligned with the Universe's purpose for us? In this episode, sought-after speaker/trainer, coach and 10-time author, Laura Di Franco discusses how we can be a gift to the world during these challenging times.

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

- How to create a marketing strategy we'll always follow through with

Consistency is more important than frequency, and in order to be consistent, we need to like what we do. Discover a strategy that feels good to you, and one that doesn't feel constricting in any way and always feels manageable.

- The power of prioritizing our joy

Everything comes together and into alignment when we're joyful and doing our work from an overflow of love and healing. If we want to make a real difference, we need to prioritize our own self-care so that we're coming from abundance, joy and love.

- How to find positivity in difficult times

With all the negativity and fear in this world right now, it's still possible to experience a positive outcome. There are so many opportunities to create inspiration and to do work that truly drives purpose, and healing.

In this new paradigm, there's an increased demand for our work. Using this opportunity to create a collective awakening of consciousness, we can increase the impact of the vibration of love around us, and create a bigger space for our work to be received.

At the same time, the financial realities of this time can make it very hard for us to feel good about charging money for what we do. The truth is, charging for what we do is not about money, it's about supporting the gifts that are changing the world.

How do we overcome the limiting beliefs around self-promotion and monetization? How do we create a global assembly of peace? In this episode, spiritual teacher, empathic healer and best-selling author, Matt Kahn talks about his journey and owning his gift.

3 Things You'll Love in This Episode

How individual consciousness can change the entire world The goals that awakening lightworkers like Matt aim to manifest isn't just individual transformation. It also aims to usher in a community-based consciousness so we can assemble around something positive and truly energy shifting.

Matt's advice to spiritual entrepreneurs and creators who feel guilty charging for what they do When we know we've been divinely appointed by spirit to bring a message through to the world, it is important for us to overcome the lack of belief that people should be paying us for it. For people to truly receive our gifts, we need to believe in their value and importance.

Why peace matters When we try and actively fight against negative energy, we will get sucked into antagonism. Unconsciousness and negativity can unravel themselves if we hold onto the light and allow the revelation to occur. Peace is a powerful way for us to bring light into the world.

Until the world was interrupted by this crisis and the subsequent lockdowns, humanity was in an unhealthy place. We were so focused on work and productivity that so many other important aspects of our health were crumbling.

Many of us have experienced negative feelings and circumstances as our schedules and lives have adjusted, but it's not all bad news.

There's fear and despair but there's also hope, excitement and the opportunity of what we can create right now; the new culture and consciousness we can usher in.

What is the larger meaning behind the crisis, and what are the old ways that we desperately need to shift away from? Why are spiritual entrepreneurs so important right now? How do we keep ourselves in alignment in these challenging times?

In this episode, Ayurvedic Practitioner and Cookbook Author, Kate O'Donnell shares how the lockdown has shifted her life and business and what she's learning from it.

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

The hidden meaning behind the covid-19 crisis

We lived in a culture where productivity and work goals were the most important thing, and focusing on that was driving all of our behavior and choices. The unsustainable nature of that work-dominant focus has now been shut down, and many of us have been pushed onto the path of breaking old habits and creating new healthier ones.

Getting over the internal resistance to self-promotion

Right now, more than ever before, there's a huge surge in the people tuned into the online world. Our gifts are needed in order to help many of these people who would benefit from our teachings and messages. If you've created something that can really help people, it will remain hidden without promotion. Kate shares how she overcame her hesitation to run ads.

How the virtual world can diminish our alignment

We're spending more time than ever in front of computer and phone screens, which creates an artificial and boxed-in mindscape. Too much of that will affect our sense of reality and connection with the world around us. We need to get away from the box and train the eyes on a different kind of vision.

There's a lot that we can learn from paying attention to our Facebook and Instagram feeds and how they function. The platforms are reflections of the collective conscious but also manifestations of what we focus on.

Good or bad, our reality on social media is an immediate reflection of what we're actively engaging with, what we post and what we follow. This is the same in our real lives, especially at a time like this. There are many perceptions of reality and we can choose the one we manifest.

How do we control the impact that bad news will have on our feelings and the reality of our existence. How do we hold into our vibration, presence and consciousness through all the challenges?

In this episode, I share a metaphor that I hope will help you better navigate these hard times, and focus on love, connection and gratitude.

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

We have as many perceptions of reality as there are people in the world.

We can create a new paradigm where money is just one form of abundance and not all that we need to focus on.

Get your message out right now because people are searching for hope and how to get through these hard times.
