Creative Alignment with Anna Herber

How can the divine feminine help you magnetise success, experience wild floods of creativity, and feel so damn good about your life that you become irresistible to everything you desire?

In this episode, I interview Ayana Forbes (The Risen Goddess) about her journey to embody goddess energy, plus her thoughts on patriarchy, the suppression of the feminine inside us all,, and practical ways that she ignites self love and radiance to attract abundance and creative success.

Ayana Forbes is an Energy Healer, Intuitive Guide & 6-Figure Entrepreneur bringing ancient goddess wisdom to modern day women. 

I connected with Ayana through her electrifying presence on Threads and Instagram. I instantly resonated with her fiercely unapologetic bad ass message, as well as her open-hearted love of life, and a deep sense of hope for this planet.  

Ayana holds so much wisdom when it comes to glamour magic and self care rituals that quite literally change the way you look and experience your life. 

And let me tell you — these forms of feminine wisdom have been suppressed for a reason…. 

This episode is for you if you’re ready to reclaim your magic, and change the world with your radiance.

I get it... I've been there many, many times. But it's time to break the cycle, and reignite your confidence. You have to make a firm decision and ignite MOMENTUM by creating one aligned thing with full passion and expression. Enjoy it, finish it, share it, celebrate. Then move onto the next!

Let's break the cycle right now.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, tune in to your bigger vision, and make that firm decision. What would be fun to create? What feels right?

I PROMISE, you'll feel so much better when you figure out what you need to simply place the next brick in the giant wall you're building.

Clarity creates momentum, and builds your confidence.

You can do this.

Year of Alignment 1:1 Mentorship

Manifesting bucket list speaking opportunities with Nikita Thakrar

How can self expression help you secure the kind of public speaking opportunities currently pinned to the vision boards of ambitious entrepreneurs the world over?

In this episode I interview Nikita Thakrar about her sensational TEDx talk debut ‘Dance with Your Dharma’ that Nikita manifested using courageous self expression in the face of a painful block.

Nikita Thakrar is an Author, Speaker, guiding people through identity shifts and life transitions, from karmic identity to dharmic purpose. 

I recently got to travel to Cornwall to watch her light up the TEDx Truro stage with her phenomenal talk ‘Dance with Your Dharma’

Nikita and I have shared so much magic back and forth in our relationship. 

We recorded this interview with the intention of capturing the magic in Nikita’s journey to manifest her first ever TEDx talk — from the dance rituals she did at home with my support, to the practical ‘real world’ steps of applying to multiple TEDx talks and submitting her pitch.

Welcome to Creative Alignment, a podcast devoted to activating your soul-aligned success era through the magic of the creative process.

I'm Anna Herber — artist, entrepreneur, writer, poet, speaker, facilitator, and Alignment Guide. For the past decade, I've been exploring what I call the path of Creative Alignment: using the challenges and breakthroughs of the creative process to connect with my intuition, clarify my impact vision, and create a life rooted in authentic expression and positive impact.

If you've ever felt called to create something bigger than yourself but found fear, self-doubt, or uncertainty getting in the way, this podcast is for you.

Each episode is here to help you:

· Trust your intuition and connection to the universe.
· Rebuild your faith in your creative gifts.
· Move through resistance and take courageous action.
· Align your life and work with your authentic essence
· Turn inspired ideas into tangible realities

We live in a world that disconnects us from our innate creative power — but your creativity is your birthright. You are a co-creator of this reality, and when you learn how to have fun with it and trust excitement to lead the way, life will meet you there.

Through solo episodes, stories, reflections, practical tools, and conversations, we'll explore how to trust the creative process, follow inspiration, and build a life that's both deeply fulfilling, financially successful, and wildly alive.

My intention is simple: to inspire you to believe in yourself, trust your soul's nudges, embrace your creative calling, and shine your light as brightly as you possibly can.

Because the world needs what you've got to give.
