Illuminate Your Essence

Holidays aren't always happy for everyone. It may mean stress and chaos and financial strain or it may remind us of the loved ones left behind or lost.    The pain can overshadow the joy.   In this episode of Illuminate Your Essence we explore why they can be a source of pain instead of happiness. What can we do to shift things into better balance and into remembering the meaning behind the season.    We will explore high emotions and how to deal with them.    And we will talk about surrendering to the time of year where we go within and remember what isn't serving us anymore and connecting to the things that are most meaningful to us.    I hope that after listening to this episode that your perception can shift enough to start feeling the love and peace that you deserve during this holiday season.    Happy Holidays my friends.....   Listen to the full episode by clicking on the link below or subscribing to Illuminate Your Essence podcast on Apple, spotify, or youtube   #illuminateyouressence #wendybunnell #theholidaysarehard #awakening

On today's episode my dear friend Bri Anderson with Breathe Belief shares with us her in depth knowledge about human design. 

 

I remember a few years ago learning about a thing called, "human design." I don't remember much about it- because truth be told I didn't think it mattered. 

 

Fast forward two years- this single bit of information has been an incredible tool to focus on my "zone of genius" in business and to be patient and loving with others because their human design is different. 

 

It has helped my relationships grow stronger, and it has given me new perspectives on my own. 

 

I love that Bri has a way to help others understand a very complex subject and make it super easy to learn and apply in real life. In fact on today's episode- you get to hear her read my chart  and understand why this information is so transformative and helpful when applied to relationships.

On today's episode of Illuminate Your Essence Podcast, 

 

My dear friend Jessica Elgin talks about one of her superpowers which is creating a massive amount of money. 

 

And she feels that you have the same ability. 

 

It's all about looking at things differently and getting into an abundant mindset even with our uncertain economy. 

 

She knows what it is like to have a million dollar business and to also be bankrupt and making less than $12,000 in a year. She has lived it and understands the emotion behind creating wealth and abundance. 

 

We talk candidly about the rising prices of groceries, rent/housing, gas and how to stay calm amid the storm. 

 

How to use this time to create more abundance and money than ever before. 

 

Why the market is actually in a great position and how it is shifting after a 17 year cycle. 

 

You won't want to miss this episode- let's make money your superpower too!

The holiday season is upon us! With Thanksgiving being tomorrow, I knew I had to share about one of my all-time favorite feelings and words-gratitude.

 

In today’s episode, I’m talking about:

-How you can open your heart and really be in a space of gratitude this holiday season

-My personal story of learning gratitude as I dealt with a deep crisis within my own family

-How to begin practicing gratitude, and then moving and shifting into gratitude 2.0

-My personal experience of sexual trauma at 15 and 17, and how I’ve shifted my mindset around what happened

 

When you’re in gratitude, you’re really practicing love in action. It’s an opportunity to be in the present moment, experience peace and harmony, and remember you have everything you need. The kindest thing you can do for yourself is to have radical acceptance for everything that happens in your life. 

I hope and pray that you choose gratitude this holiday season (no matter your circumstances), build a deeper connection with those around you, and enjoy it all to the fullest!

It is officially here, my friends!

My brand-new book, ‘Truth and Dare: Daring to Live Your Truth in a Fake World’ released on 11-11-22, and it has truly changed my entire life.

 

In today’s episode, I’m sharing more about:

-The initial ‘download’ I received for the idea and title of my book, and how I knew it was going to change everything

-My past experiences of making decisions based on fear

-The importance of really connecting to ourselves on a deeper level, so that can translate to connecting with others in the same way

-Understanding that when challenges comes, we can actually flow and surrender to them, instead of suffering through them

 

This book has been such a labor of love, and it has truly been an honor to write and create it. Even if you don’t fully understand all of this or it doesn’t make sense to you, I hope and pray you will feel the love and energy that comes from it, and will take this opportunity to grab a copy for yourself.

My greatest desire is for you to experience and embody your truth, fully connect with who you are, cultivate beautiful relationships with those around you, and always have clarity and peace from the Divine!

FULL SHOW NOTES: https://wendybunnell.com/episode118

Today is a monumental day for me, friends! I’m going to be sharing more about my new book, ‘Truth and Dare: Daring to Live Your Truth in a Fake World’, and it’s been a long time coming.

I was honored and very excited to have my dear friend and publisher, Keira Poulsen, as my guest on this episode. She’s much more than a book publisher though, and after meeting her for the first time, I knew she was the person who was going to help me write and publish my book.

Keira Poulsen is the CEO and founder of Freedom House Publishing, and a book channeler. She is a heart-centered leader who helps unblock creators and and channel their messages through published books. She knows that the readers in this world need authors’ messages, and once they are shared out into the world, we are all transformed as a result.

 

In today’s episode, we’re talking about:

-What a book channeler is/what they do

-What happens when you face writer’s block, and the fears that come with it

-How to bless your book, and let it continue to be a part of you

-Keira’s visualization/channeling of my next book

-Why it’s okay for your book writing process to be unorganized and not always make sense

-How to clear everything out so you can be the vessel for your book to come through

 

Keira is such a beautiful human, and I’m forever grateful that she was able to help and guide me on my journey of writing my book. She truly believes that once the creator within you is unblocked, your soul is liberated, and everything in your life will expand into momentum and freedom.

I can’t even begin to tell you how much the process of writing my book has changed me-I am not the same person I used to be. I show up with more joy, love, peace, and connection in my life, and with those around me. I truly believe my book will have a positive impact on your life, and I’m so excited for you to check it out soon!

I had the pleasure of bringing on a dear friend of mine, Kristi Holt, for my newest podcast episode. I only connected with Kristi a few months ago, but I knew I had to have her on the show. I’ve already learned so much about emotional intelligence from her, and I’m excited to get to dive deeper into this topic with you here.

Kristi Holt is the co-founder and CEO of Vibeonix, a unique technology that helps people navigate their complex emotions using voice analysis artificial intelligence (AI). She also founded the MECA project, a non-profit organization helping to create a space for teens and young adults to thrive mentally and emotionally. 

 

In today’s episode, we’re talking about:

-What the Vibeonix technology is and the 4 specific ways it can quantify emotional intelligence

-How you can actually become emotionally intelligent

-Learning what your superpower is and staying in your own attunement when it comes to your emotions

-The key to allowing your emotions to flow

-How your emotions can help you really understand what your thoughts are and make healthier decisions going forward

-Becoming aware of how we are programmed and shifting the trajectory of our emotions

 

My conversation with Kristi was truly special, and all of the information and wisdom she shared was incredible. She has so much love, and was such a treat to have on the show!

I really want to encourage you to shift from judgment into curiosity as you’re learning about emotional intelligence, and be kind with yourself when it comes to your emotions. Don’t expect quantum leaps right away, because this will take time. Begin with practicing gratitude, and be kind with yourself on your journey!

When it comes to money, most of us want more, and many of us feel like there’s never enough. What would it feel like if you had a never-ending flow of money, and you weren’t always searching for it? I want to help you get to a place where money IS flowing to you, instead of you chasing the ever-elusive source of it.

 

In today’s episode, I’m talking about:

-My own story of taking the plunge and starting my own business 10 years ago doing something I loved, and then experiencing a major life event that changed everything

-My feelings of fear and desperation with my previous business, and how it eventually grew to be a chore, instead of something I enjoyed

-Why money is energy, and not something we actually see

-How you can learn to be in a place of abundance, no matter where you are in your life

-What happened when I decided to take an entire month off in my business

 

While I honor and respect money’s ability to add value to my life, I also understand that it will never be the source of happiness for which I'm trying to seek. I want you to understand that you will experience the most abundance when you’re able to find joy in ‘what is’, instead of always searching and chasing. 

Yes, money CAN flow to you if you choose to live in abundance and practice gratitude, no matter what you have going on. I want this for you, and I can’t wait to see how it plays out in your life!

I was honored to have the amazing and radiant Felicia Romero as a guest on my newest podcast episode. Felicia has tried and learned a lot over the years when it comes to wellness and business, so I’m very excited to have her share more of her story here.

Felicia is a mentor to fitness, health, and mindset coaches, a serial entrepreneur (which I can totally relate to), and she’s the host of the Hi Felicia Podcast. She’s been a fitness coach for over 15 years, and now loves helping women get started creating and launching online fitness businesses (and she has so much fun doing it!) 

 

In today’s episode, we’re talking about:

-Why all of the diets and workouts will never fully help (and heal) us if we don’t have the right belief and mindset in place first

-Felicia’s story of growing up in a healthy environment (no talk of dieting), and eventually doing fitness competitions in college

-What can happen when we start to develop an unhealthy relationship with food

-The importance of experiencing all of the ups and downs on our journeys with health, business, and life

-How our bodies will show us and give us clues if we’re out of alignment in our lives 

-The 2 things that keep women from moving forward and doing something new in their lives (and how you can get past these)

 

My conversation with Felicia was filled with SO many golden nuggets and powerful takeaways that I know you will resonate with. She wanted to create freedom, impact, and wealth in her own life; she’s truly passionate about helping other women do the same, because it IS possible!

We really can collectively learn and grow from each other’s wisdom and spiritual gifts once we choose to stop being in a place of fear, and feeling ‘stuck’. When we begin to lean into love, faith, and trust, I truly believe we can change the world together!

I had my dear friend, Tonya Murray, on my newest podcast episode today. Tonya and I have known each other for awhile now and have gotten to see each other transition through new and different phases in life, so I was very excited to bring her onto the podcast.

Tonya Murray is a life coach, author, speaker, and podcast host of the Functioning Hot Mess Podcast (make sure and check out her podcast on your favorite listening platform-it’s full of real-life goodness we all can relate to). She helps each woman she works with to discover and live her best life by building (or rebuilding) her self image, and step boldly and confidently into her dreams.

 

In today’s episode, we’re talking about:

-Tonya’s story of working as the director of a child advocacy center, and then changing her direction to helping mothers gain confidence and learn to trust themselves

-Recognizing that we want our kids to be happy and supported by us, but also knowing they will go through (and ultimately transform) from challenges they experience in life

-Stepping out and taking a leap of faith into the world of entrepreneurship

-Learning to listen to our hearts and what the universe is trying to tell us, instead of the stories and lies we used to tell ourselves

 

My conversation with Tonya was filled with so much wisdom, and I know we can all relate to her journey in some way. She has experienced a powerful transformation in her own life, and she’s now passionate about helping women rise to their personal power that is within.

It’s easy for us to think we’re playing it safe, but we’re really just staying ‘stuck’ when we aren’t listening to our hearts, and what the universe is telling us. When you learn to listen to that voice of peace and clarity, your life is going to change, and your transformation will be incredible!
