In this month's episode of Why Are We Like This, Kristen and I sat down to talk about our experience from our recent ELEVATE retreat on Santa Rosa Beach in Florida. Plus, we share in depth about how we're navigating the overwhelm of what's happening in the world around us, how we are each individually finding the balance between peace and activation (though they aren't mutually exclusive,) and how we've both found ourselves wading through grief + the many ways we've found to keep moving forward as we do.

We love getting to dive into these topics each month with you, so if there's something you'd like for us to discuss, please send an email to [email protected] or send me a DM over on Instagram with your topic suggestions!

If the dream is in you its for you, Let's rock!

In today's world, at the forefront of most of our worries and the root of many of our conflicts is one thing: money.

It's no secret that money is essential to our ability to live, to provide, to give back and more; and that so many of us feel trapped below a glass ceiling, or living paycheck to paycheck, always slightly out of reach of financial freedom.

But what if it's not the external world that's keeping us from that freedom? What if our beliefs surrounding money + abundance are keeping us stuck in the same patterns of struggle + strife?

In this month's episode of Why Are We Like This? Kristen and I dive into our own money stories + programming, and how we've come to change them over time to allow more abundance into our lives at every turn.

As we walk deeper into 2022, I've been feeling called to shift the way I show up on the podcast, and in my world. Today's episode is sharing that shift with you- and also the invitation to explore the possibility that there is NO right way to do… anything. One of the biggest expanders for me in my life has been to release the need to "get it right," and instead follow the nudges and desires of my soul. What happens here is nothing short of miraculous, and the good news is- you couldn't possibly get it wrong.

In This Episode:

• My intention for today's episode and the shift in the podcast for 2022 [ :50 ]
• Letting go of our perfectionist beliefs [ 4:00 ]
• The thing that has saved me from seeking perfection [ 7:41 ]
• Understanding my own energetic home base [ 9:30 ]
• Riding the wave of our own creative musings [ 12:15 ]

Soul Shifting Quotes:

• "There is no such thing as the right way."
• "There is nothing common or average about you."
• "Let the energy inform the actions. The way that I feel directly correlates to what I do."
• "It's not about right or wrong; it's about being moved from within by the sensation of your soul."
• "It's impossible to be wrong at being you."

"Authenticity" is a word I'm hearing in all of the places and spaces these days- which is a beautiful thing to witness; but what happens when we don't feel firm footing in what our authentic self looks like, lives like, and feels like?

Today's bonus episode is my exploration of this word and work- and my invitation for you to deepen your journey with what it means to be your own fully authentic self.

You may plan and know where you are going, but how the experience will turn out is unknown, and that is the often the most beautiful part of the journey.

In this week's bonus episode of The Amber Lilyestrom Show, I wanted to share a story about my most recent photoshoot and my own experience of vulnerability and inner criticism that came with it. As I grow and shift along with my mission, I've come to find there is always discomfort in doing the work that we're called to do. This week's episode is all about how I'm moving through that in this season of my life and business as we expand and open the doors to our brand new program LEGACY, and beyond.
