As you’re listening to this, I’ve entered into hibernation for the holiday season– to partake in the medicine and magic of this season, which is all about resting, dreaming, reflecting, getting quiet, and turning within.

With this, we’ll be taking a break from sharing any new podcast episodes until the first week of January. Until then, I wanted to leave you with something that’s appropriate for this liminal window of time between the solstice and the New Year: An excerpt from a dharma talk I gave last January at a New Year’s visioning retreat here in Colorado.

I hope this serves and inspires you as you take your own time to be and reflect over the coming weeks, in the ways that feel right for you.

Happy holidays and New Year, my dear friends.

Enjoy, and I’ll see you in January!

I was planning on talking about something else today, but I had such a powerful experience earlier this week that I felt inspired to veer from my original plan so I could share more about it with you. 

Living in such a transactional and mechanistic culture, it’s easy to forget how magical it is to be a human being who gets to engage in the creative process. Moreover, it’s easy to forget that our businesses, and all that we share within the world of our businesses (such as books, websites, programs, and even a podcast like this), are sacred, divine beings. They’re here to partner with us, and to evolve us, in profound and mysterious ways. If we’re willing. 

Today I’m sharing a recent story of how I experienced this in a big way. May this inspire you to bring this perspective more fully into your own life and work in the year ahead.

As we’re all entering into review and visioning mode for 2024, I wanted to share some common things I’ve seen over the years with the women I’ve mentored. First, it’s important to note that over 80% of women business owners are working below the 100K income level. Whether you’re ready to soar past this milestone or find yourself consistently falling short of it, there are some fundamental aspects we can explore to not only achieve it but also to potentially surpass it (if that’s something you’d like to do). 

Elevating our income involves a dual process of personal healing and business growth. This is important because having more money empowers us to not only take better care of ourselves and those we love but also to be greater forces for good in the world. Let’s take a closer look together now, with curiosity, honesty, and compassion.

Do you ever feel frustrated with yourself, that, despite your best intentions, work bleeds into your personal life more than you’d like it to? Maybe it keeps you from spending more quality time with your family and friends– or even with yourself? Boundaries are a big deal. Not having them can lead to overwhelm and resentment (at best) and to burnout (at worst).

These final weeks of the year are really potent ones for us to not only identify our intentions for 2024 but also to get really honest about the parts of ourselves that are likely to hinder our fulfillment of them. To help with this, today we’re exploring two, essential boundaries every woman needs in her business, as well as how to skillfully get out of your own way to embody them.

Today we’re taking an honest look at things we might consider to be “masculine”: business, money, success, and power. With my own change in direction to specifically serve spiritual, entrepreneurial women, I’m outlining a new paradigm for these things, and how we can all be a part of it. The path of spiritual entrepreneurship is one that invites us to see business as a potent path for healing, service, creative expression, divine partnership, and fulfilling our soul’s potential. But, before that can happen, we need to clear out old, outdated beliefs that may be hindering us from opening to more expansive possibilities for ourselves and our world.

Today I’m speaking with Internal Family Systems Practitioner, teacher, and author, Robert Falconer. As a survivor of extreme childhood abuse himself, for the majority of Robert’s career, he worked with fellow trauma survivors. Yet, an unexpected encounter while assisting an IFS Level 1 training ten years ago led him to also first explore and now specialize in something that’s come to be known in the IFS community as Unattached Burdens, or UB’s for short. 

In his new book, The Others Within Us, Robert investigates how these UB’s come to be– not only in our culture but also in those around the world. If you or someone you work with has things that don’t seem to heal as a result of personal or ancestral healing, you could have a foreign energy in your system, or UB. 

This isn’t something that’s often talked about, yet it’s more common than you might think! Together, Robert and I unpack how we get these, what possible symptoms of a UB are, and, ultimately, how to clear them from your system, safely and gently….so you can embody all of YOU.

And I’ll share from the heart about whether Becoming You may be the right experience for you. 

Whether you’re considering joining us, or you’re just a little curious what it’s all about… or you simply want a different perspective on how to create transformation in your life– this episode is for you!

As you tune in, and get a sense for the possibilities that exist for your life, I invite you to check in with yourself and see whether our upcoming Becoming You adventure is right for you.

Welcome to the fifth and final episode of our special series.

(Remember, this limited series expires on November 8, so be sure to listen before then!)

Have you ever felt like you’re not where you should be in your life… that your big dreams and goals still elude you (despite all of your best efforts and intentions)... or that maybe you’ll just always fall short? Well, what if I were to tell you that you’re actually right on time? I know, that can sound crazy, particularly if you’ve experienced more challenges than you see your peers facing (or it seems that “everyone” is ahead of you). But in this final episode of our series, I’ll flesh out for you why it isn’t crazy at all. And how recognizing that you’re right on time, right now, is actually the key to getting to where you want to be next.

As we close together today, I want to remind you of something. 

Deep transformation happens much more quickly and powerfully in an intimate, supportive container, as this is deep soul and life re-design work that flourishes most when given a high level of devotion and commitment--– and that’s why I’ve created just such a container around my upcoming program Becoming You. 

This program is designed to support you in doing both the inner and outer work of getting out of your own way, creating a life and business that’s fully aligned and filled with abundance– and becoming the woman you truly are. 

(Plus, we have a special early enrollment gift of an “I Am Enough Repramming Session”  available if you join us by November 3.)

If you’re ready to take these next steps with us, I welcome you with open arms and heart.

Here’s where to learn more & join us inside Becoming You.

Welcome to day 4 of our special, 5-part series.

(Since this limited series expires on November 8, I invite you to listen to each of the episodes before then!)

When we hear that our potential is limitless and then we fail, or some of our prayers remain unanswered, how do we make sense of that? Does that mean we’re doing something wrong….or that, even worse, we’re wrong? No, not at all. Today’s episode sheds light on how to make sense of the fact that we are limitless, spiritual beings living in very limited, human bodies. More than that, it helps us to trust that there is, in fact, a larger plan for our lives that will help us become more of who we truly are. Our task is to become aligned with the plan and surrender to the wisdom behind it (which is always working in our favor). Today, we’ll explore exactly how to do that. 

And if, after listening today, you’re ready to take the next steps with me and a wider community of women, I welcome you to join us in my 8-week immersive program, Becoming You.

This program is designed to support you in doing both the inner and outer work of getting out of your own way, creating a life and business that’s fully aligned and filled with abundance– and becoming the woman you truly are. 

(Plus, we have a special early enrollment gift available if you join us by November 3.)

Welcome to the second episode in our 5-day limited series.

If our goal is to become who we truly are, then a crucial first step in that process is to understand who we truly are. Not just the bright and shiny parts, but also (and especially) the more challenging, and even shadowy, aspects of ourselves. The ones who sabotage and derail us. The ones we’d rather others not see. The ones we try to silence and get rid of. In this episode, I’ll introduce a powerful framework that will allow you to begin mapping out the entirety of who you are– so you can experience the gentle, yet powerful transformation you’re seeking. 

(Since this limited series expires on November 8, I invite you to listen to each of the episodes before then!)
