  • Following Your Soul Nudges

    As a Business Intuitive and mentor, Therese knows the power that energy, emotion, and intention play in creating success. But it was not an easy journey for her to get to where she is today. In this episode, Therese shares the story of her struggle to own her soul's gifts.



    Starting out as a psychotherapist, she never imagined that one day she'd be a business coach! Having zero background in the business world, it made no sense on paper, but her soul knew! She chronicles the challenges of being out of your comfort zone, and how when you are newer at something, it's easy to devalue what you bring.



    You will enjoy this episode if you have ever known that you are here for more, but may have had trouble saying yes to it. With refreshing honesty and authenticity, Therese's story will inspire you, normalize what you may have gone through, and give you hope that your soul has a path planned for you that can be magnificent if you say yes to it!

  • How You Do Money is How You Do Life with Kim Curtis

    Kim Curtis is a nationally recognized wealth management advisor and speaker.



    After Kim's parents got divorced, Kim’s mom was left in a tough situation which necessitated that Kim got subsidized school lunches. Imagine the shame of being a young girl having to slip the cafeteria aid the red ticket which indicated that her family didn't have the money.



    We talk about how she went from this, to then getting student loans for law school, and promptly defaulted on them. Of course, her upbringing would lead her to not know how to manage her money. She was checked out, overwhelmed, and didn't know what to do.



    But miraculously, an anonymous donor paid a $1000 payment on her loan account, and that was the sign that Kim needed. Her gift made Kim stop and realize the untrue story she had been telling herself—that money was scarce, and she didn’t deserve it.



    Thanks to that gift, Kim became conscious of her internal money talk and began to take her desire for money and the anxiety that surrounded it more seriously. Slowly, she began to believe in her ability to earn and manage money, and, in the process, the fear, anxiety, inaction, blame, and guilt she had around money slowly evaporated. She realized that she was being supported and endeavored to get right with her life and her money story. She first went to law school, then moved into the world of financial planning.



    She then had an epiphany moment where she saw that many in this industry are just 'sales people' for the products they are selling instead of being a fiduciary for the clients they are helping. That disconnect lead her to quit her job and then start her own firm.



    We talk about money being connected to lifestyle and impact. We also talk about her journey and how she got into alignment after feeling so disconnect with the work.




    Kim Curtis is a nationally recognized wealth management advisor and speaker. As President and CEO of Wealth Legacy Institute, her groundbreaking work in developing a highly personal client-centric planning model was recognized in the Journal of Practical Estate Planning, winning the Editor's Choice award. This model is the cornerstone of her firm's holistic and highly successful approach to integrated wealth management, The Planning for LIFE Experience-.



    Kim has attained numerous professional designations and been recognized by the financial planning industry as having achieved the highest level of competence and expertise. Kim is a bestselling author of Money Secrets: Keys to Smart Investing, published by Financial Literacy Press. Kim has spoken on leadership, negotiations, and finance to organizations such as West Point, Oracle, EPA, University of Colorado Hospital, Comcast, Level 3, CenturyLink, OtterBox, Johnson & Johnson, AAUW, amongst others. She has been profiled on NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, CW, and the Wall Street Journal.

  • Hardship as a Path to Transformation with Mariangela Parodi

    Mariangela knew at age 16 that she wanted to study and practice naturopathy. But unfortunately, her father didn't give her that choice. Growing up as an immigrant, she learned from her father's struggles in leaving his country, that people can't be trusted, and so she became the "good and compliant girl."

    There was a high cost to this way of living. She felt isolated, didn't have her voice, couldn't champion for herself, and found herself in a field of study/career, that was not fulfilling.



    It took her body starting to break down for her to realize that she was not in her soul alignment. She looked around her job and saw women who were sickly, suffering, and miserable, but they were stuck. She made the difficult decision to walk away from her employment, without knowing what was next. But she knew that in order to save her life, she had to follow the promptings of her intuition.



    We talk about how our early environment, and family trauma can impact us in more ways than we know. Mariangela gives a beautiful demonstration of how to "plug in" when you are in the middle of chaos or crisis.



    The main point of this episode is that very often life has to "break us open" in order for our next level or expansion to come through. Most people fight it or can't make sense of the pain, but if you listen to this show, you will understand the beautiful purpose of transformation that often comes from facing hardship.




    For 30 years, Mariangela Parodi has practiced in the fields of energy medicine, biomedical science, naturopathy, holistic health, and meditation. As an alchemist, she is the Founder of the Alkymia Energie Healing -, a spiritual system that eliminates limiting beliefs, removes blocks and reprograms the mindset, creating connection and transformation which awakens your sacred power, brilliance and destiny.



    Mariangela uses her sacred alchemy process to eliminate limiting beliefs, remove blocks and reprograms the mind, creating connection and transformation which awakens your unique destiny. By activating your raw pure potential, she bridges the gaps to help you overcome your challenges and accelerate your next level of passion, purpose and prosperity. She guides healers to fully express their sacred power, and boldly live from their brilliance, and be rewarded with a steady stream of income using their gifts.

  • Choosing Joy in Your Business with Laura West

    As an international business success coach, Laura helps coaches, healers, trainers and purpose-driven entrepreneurs discover their creative leadership inside and out so they share their Soul Work with more people. She is passionate that you can do meaningful work that makes a positive difference while making great money.



    After leaving her very stressful corporate job, Laura decided that she'd had enough stress! She came to realize that she really desired to have joy as part of her life and business.



    When she built her coaching business two decades ago, the concept of "joy" was not talked about! It was pretty hard core, money driven "guru-following" back then, but Laura followed the internal guidance she was getting and forged a very different path than what she was seeing in the market.



    In this show we talk about how to tap into more joy, how to push back on the "dream stealers" who might doubt you, and how to stay the course when things are difficult. (Because as you know, business is not always joyful!)



    Laura gives practical tools for how to instill more joy into your life and business.

  • From an Eating Disorder to a Beautiful, Successful Business with Malaine Leah Butler

    Malaine Leah Butler is a transformational business coach who supports female leaders & conscious creators in transforming their business to prioritize family, financial freedom, and a life they love.



    In this episode, Malaine shares the story of recovery from addiction and eating disorders. She was very much programmed to look perfect so her life would be perfect. She suffered from bulimia for years and never wanted to quit, until her family very lovingly offered her support in a non-judgmental way. She notes that she was a fallen-away catholic who was pretty mad at God, but something inside her told her to be willing to get help.



    So accompanied by her father, she walked into her first 12-step meeting. After she started attending meetings, she literally heard the voice of God tell her that if she would surrender, listen, and do what was needed, God would lift the addiction. Thus began her deep dive and journey into recovery and personal growth.



    She shares how she used the process of trust and faith to create her now very successful coaching business. Taking one step at a time, she was led to a personal development company. She then became a trainer for them, and eventually went into business for herself.



    We also talk a great deal about Alpha women’s identity and how very often we measure our worth based on what we have or what we do versus being lovable. This is a very inspiring episode!




    Malaine Leah Butler is a transformational business coach, master coach running her company for 8 years. She primarily supports female leaders & conscious creators in transforming their business to prioritise family, financial freedom & a life they love. Her work is a mix of somatic, mindset & spiritual that allows people to access their truest & wealthiest identity. She is from the East Coast of USA but currently resides in New Zealand with her husband, 4boys & soon to be little girl.

  • The Body Knows with Susan and Martin Fisher

    In this episode, you’ll meet Susan Bennett Fisher and Martin Fisher. They are the stewards of what they call "The Body of Nine" work. Body of 9 is an innovative, body-based personality assessment that, through your posture, body type, and how you physically express yourself, identifies your Natural Number. This gives you an experience of your innate self, taking your understanding of who you are to a whole new level.



    In a nutshell, they have been studying a system for years and have found that there are nine natural numbers. Each person has a unique number from birth, which informs who they are and how they show up in the world



    Susan and Martin share their journeys of the "before and after." Before they understood what their number was, and after they got identified.



    Imagine being given permission to be fully who you are. Imagine understanding your great gifts and strengths, and also those of your loved ones. This episode is very illuminating. You'll hear what the numbers are and ways to discover for yourself who you were meant to be in the world.




    Susan Bennett Fisher and Martin Fisher are the Co-Founders and Teachers of Body of 9. Body of 9 is an innovative, body-based personality assessment that, through your posture, body type, and how you physically express yourself, identifies your Natural Number. This gives you an experience of your innate self, taking your understanding of who you are to a whole new level.



    Numbers tell the truth. Each of us has our own Natural Number, from 1 to 9, which is the key to who we are, and how we think, react, act, and interact. The Body of 9 system reveals those innate differences and helps us learn to resolve them, bringing us closer together. Once you know that Natural Number (and those of the people around you), you’ll discover how to have more awareness of yourself, your relationships, your life, and how you communicate to bridge deeper and more meaningful connections.



    Susan Bennett Fisher and Martin Fisher are pioneers in the study and research of the 9 Natural Numbers.

  • Breakdown to Breakthrough with Connie Jones

    Connie Jones is a coach for impact-driven change makers. She is passionate about helping heart-centered, high-achieving business owners unleash their brilliance and grow their business with greater freedom, fulfillment, and abundance. But because she was such a workaholic, she experienced a physical, mental, and spiritual breakdown. This led to debilitating anxiety, adrenal fatigue, thyroid problems, and extreme burnout. The challenge is that she loved the work she did but couldn’t figure out how to do it in a way to take care of herself.



    At the bottom of this was that Connie didn’t know her own worth, which lead her to feel overly responsible for her clients. We talk about how we as women are wired to “help and give” which can cause problems in our identity. This is the difference between “being a doing” versus being a “being.” When you don’t feel like you are enough, it’s easy to settle for a sense of being needed.



    You’ll hear a woman who was in masculine energy of driving/striving and had to settle for disconnection in relationships and a life built on who she thought others needed her to be. You’ll hear the steps Connie took to start breaking out of this pattern for herself after she asked for help and started recreating her life. It starts with asking for help, listening to your heart, and discovering what you are tolerating. When you discover the process of loving yourself, and giving yourself grace, you can then ask what steps to take next.



    You will also hear Connie’s “after” mode of being. She has a beautifully balanced life today. She notes that when she’s in alignment, doing what she loves, is when money flows. It’s a beautiful story of how you can shift your beliefs, let go of old codependent patterns and create a life that is nourishing and based on lifestyle values.




    Connie Jones is the coach for impact driven change makers! Her programs result in significant income increases, greater impact, abundant joy, and more free time for her clients. Connie knows firsthand the struggle and frustration of experiencing a big gap between her reality and the dream in her heart. Her breakthrough journey empowered her to create the dream business and life that had previously seemed out of reach, and she loves coaching other change makers to do the same.



    As an avid Heart Sparks vlogger, host of the Warrior Arise! Podcast, and motivational speaker, Connie imparts hope and passion to her audience as she shares wisdom from her own personal struggles and victories. Her audiences benefit from her expertise as a highly sought after therapist and coach for almost two decades. Author of Warrior Arise! Live Bravely, Freely, and Authentically YOU, Connie invites the reader to close the gap between the reality of the life they’re living and the life they were created for. She shows them how to silence the voices of fear, shame, and self-doubt that keep them playing small so they can be fully, powerfully alive in their true identity so they can live their destiny.




    Get in touch with Connie Jones if you are ready to show up in your limitless, powerfully creative brilliance

  • Living an Iconic Life with Judy Van Niekerk

    This show starts with Judy sharing what her version of an iconic life is. It involves lots of freedom to do and be and have what you want. But for Judy, the journey was quite difficult. Her horrific childhood entailed being a prisoner to her father where there was regular abuse of many, many kinds. (Trigger warning if you have some past trauma)



    But despite more trauma than most people could even imagine, she had what could only be described as a mystical or spiritual experience. She had a deep knowing that she would be ok. In this moment she saw herself and had the soul recognition that she was more than her body. So even though her body was being harmed, she could be in moments of peace and felt healing and extreme love.



    The abuse went on for a few more years, but this inner connection that allowed her to feel one with all of life, gave her purpose and reason to keep going. She had the deep knowing (in spite of all the abuse) that she would live a life of prosperity and beauty.



    This is truly a story of transformation. As Judy shares, she knew that her abuser could break her body, but could never break her spirit/soul. This knowing kept her alive. She also knew she would escape, which she did 6 years later. You will love her journey story. She went on to understand money, wealth, and comfort.



    The surprising part of this episode is that Judy shares how she came to forgive and even send love to her father. We talk about choosing to see challenges as blessings. Her journey of overcoming limiting beliefs will inspire you. If you have ever suffered from feeling “not enough,” hearing how she allowed herself to peel off the old layers of identity via being committed to a healing journey will shine a light on what’s possible and what the journey truly is like.




    Judy Van Niekerk is an international best-selling author, award-winning entrepreneur, speaker, co-founder of Tribe of Traders, and creator of Trilogy of Transformation, the most powerful life transformational process in the world and the Attune to Prosperity brand. Over the past 20+ years, she’s built and sold numerous multimillion-dollar businesses in many categories including starting the first-ever online coaching business in 2000.



    She has studied and researched the human potential for over 20 years. In fact, it’s been her understanding of human behavior and potential that has not only allowed her to create massively successful pioneering businesses but overcome the most extraordinary challenge - of being locked up throughout her childhood until she escaped in her early 20's.

  • When You Know Better, You Do Better

    In this episode, Therese shares a story of how training her dog showed her tons of lessons that are applicable to life and business. It really is the story of stepping into the NEW YOU by dropping your story.



    Have you ever had a ‘soul mate’ dog? Therese had that in Finley. A beautiful Carolina dog who sadly was killed. While Finley was wonderful and love in the home, she was a nightmare outside. Therese realized that she was using her dog’s story (Fin had been a rescue, anxious dingo, “wild dog”) as a reason for her behavior. And isn’t that what happens for us in business? We may be telling ourselves a story of why we can’t achieve, or what is interfering with our success.



    Trying to help, Therese had been working with other trainers, but who she was being and what she was doing to try to help her dog, wasn’t working! After Finley got killed, Therese wanted her remaining dog Murphy to be a better, happier, more balanced dog. She found a trainer who showed her how to be with her dog and the right tools to use.



    Listen to this episode because there are lots of applications for your business in this show!! Therese shares that because of her previous dog Finley’s behavior, she was using that as the measure of what was possible for Murphy. (And Murph has bad behaviors of his own!)



    This story so beautifully describes the difference between the trainer having a vision for the dog versus Therese being stuck in the old version of who she thought he could be. The metaphor is a perfect one for how great coaching/mentoring works. We show up with our “stuff.” Our limitations, our failures, our feelings, etc. But a great mentor will look past that and see great potential.



    In the 2nd half of the show, Therese speaks about the business applications and how our stories hold us back. It also entails getting the right tools and a way of “being” that is the game-changer. Enjoy this episode and make sure you send Therese a picture of your dog!

  • The Journey to Self Love with Jocelyn Chong

    After a successful twenty-year career at Australia’s leading banks (where she generated over $200 million in revenue), Jocelyn Chon changed paths to pursue her true passion as a Certified Life and Business Coach. She came from a very male-dominated environment where 97% of her team was male. We talk about the high cost of trying to “play the game” this way.



    After hustling for quite a while, so realized that there had to be something more because her success came at the expense of her own soul and identity. Feeling lonely and hungry for something more, she eventually started pursuing her love of spirituality, mindset, and energy tools.



    Through her journey, Jocelyn was able to find self-love, self-compassion, and even more self-worth than her previous “success version” of who she thought she was based on her old identity.



    You will appreciate where Jocelyn came from. From a child in Malaysia who never felt enough, to a high-powered industry leader, to finding the truth of who she authentically is.



    Her journey of overcoming limiting beliefs will inspire you. If you have ever suffered from feeling “not enough,” hearing how she allowed herself to peel off the old layers of identity via being committed to a healing journey will shine a light on what’s possible and what the journey truly is like.




    Malaysian-born Jocelyn Chong is an award-winning, #1 International Best-Selling Author, CEO and Founder of Seed to Sequoia. After a successful twenty-year career at Australia’s leading banks (where she generated over $200 million in revenue), she changed paths to pursue her true passion as a Certified Life and Business Coach. Her clients love her instinctive ability to uncover the core problems stifling their growth — and the practical tools she provides to unlock their full potential. She's known for her fun, bubbly attitude and unapologetically ambitious dogma.



    Jocelyn has been featured in Thrive Global, Digital Journal, FOX, Ask.com, The Times and Finance News World. When she's not empowering her clients, you can find her working on her own self-development, enjoying nature and planning her next getaway.
