TITLE OF EPISODE: Monica Poshman on Releasing the Mask of Identity.

SUMMARY OF EPISODE:

Monica has been stepping out of her SPIRITUAL CLOSET for some time now. 

Little by little she has been getting more comfortable showing up with her spiritual gifts in her career, not just her personal life.

After working for years in the Financial Industry, Monica was so programmed to "do a good job" and she finally chose to open herself up to a fuller experience of her own life.

Monica decided to change her own programming from ploughing and pushing to surrendering and trusting. 👏👏👏 YES!! 

Follow along on this interesting journey.

The roads we’ve travelled lead us to this exact spot and this divine moment in time. 

Have you ever taken the time to unravel your career journey to evaluate what your truest, highest skills and strengths are? 

That’s exactly what I did this week in this episode. This week is a stream of consciousness episode so be ready.

This week I also pull tarot cards as I tell you my story and you will see how uncanny it is how the cards reflect exactly what I am discussing. So very cool. You might want to watch this episode on YouTube (@asanilsson) so you can see the cards. 

IN THIS EPISODE I DISCUSS:

-Thank you to YOU for listening

-Healing journey of podcasting

-Why am I doing this podcast

-Miscommunication is OUR problem. I know! I spent many years blaming others for my problems. 

-Doing shadow work

-What have I seen of myself since starting this podcast 11-11-22?

(Åsa starts to pull tarot cards as she speaks of her story, watch how the cards reflect exactly what she is talking about). Happenstance? I think not. 

-10 Pentacles. Abundance, happiness + joy. What does that look like for me? What’s next? Work to extend my highest self. Am I enough for you? 

-Choosing what we do for work. Look at my past careers, how to tie them together? 

-Journey started with graduating from The Ohio State University, 1990

-Seven pentacles comes up, tarot card. Laying the seeds. Watch them grow.

-Relocate to Sweden, 2011, thought I was losing my marbles with the stress of work. Becoming unraveled.

-Age of 50, 2017 started my own business. Find out why I chose Life Coaching. 

-Four swords came up. Stress was palpable.

-The Hierophant tarot card comes up. The teacher. We teach each other.

-The Emperor tarot card comes up. The ruler. The masculine energy of showing you where you are stuck, get unblocked. I can do that easily. 

-The Chariot tarot card comes up. It’s time to move. Time for action. 

-I access my answers through Spirit, my own intuition AND I interpret answers and next steps via the tarot cards.  Do this naturally and it makes me happy to share.

-Is tarot a fluke? God,Spirit,Source is my copilot.

-5 Cups tarot card comes up. Seeing what is lost but not seeing what is in front of you. 

-I’m coming to Columbus, Ohio Oct 8th - Dec 1st, if you want to work with me! 

-Judgement tarot card popped up. Drop the judgement of yourself and others. It’s time to rise, sweet love. 

-Getting your needs met. It’s time to get to work, as the next and final tarot card revealed,

-The 8 of pentacles. HA!

Designing your EPIC END OF LIFE PARTY with Tammy Faulds

Grief Coach + Death Doula Tammy Faulds understands the importance of designing

your own end of life party now. Why shouldn’t we? I mean, mic drop, you’re going to

die, so why not be in charge of creating the most epic party you can imagine?

A true reflection of YOU and who you are and how you lived and how you want it to

look. Not some sterile, boring, dark mood and dark music kind of send off.

Imagine choosing to prepare, reframe, open up, and share what we want and how

we want it to look with our loved ones. The benefits of planning for your imminent 

demise now far outweighs the scrambling and stress that will inevitably happen if you don’t.

“Love leads”, my friends. Love leads.

TITLE OF EPISODE: Decluttering, Organizing + Estate Clearing with Jeff Orr 

SUBTITLE:  The importance of discovering the connection between our ‘Self’ and our ‘Space’.

SUMMARY OF EPISODE:  

“I didn’t know your services even existed”. ”My house never looked so good”!

Jeff Orr has heard these quotes a time or two in his career. 

By helping his clients organize, declutter and go through the estate clearing process, he often acts as a guide and a mediator. He not only provides his clients with the permission, authority and strength they need to make hard decisions, he does so with diplomacy and tact. 

Listen in while Jeff shares some gems that we can ALL take with us. 

Hope you enjoy listening to this one as much as I did recording it.

IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: 

• Jeff’s passion for helping others organize and finding contentment with their items. Especially while grieving or while going through a big change in their lives.
• Jeff runs in for tough conversations while most run away. 
• Jeff likes to pull out what his clients need to do by asking them questions and drawing out what they want. “I’m here to support the fact that you get to choose”.  
• How does he help people who feel they are ‘supposed’ to know how to handle situations that they’ve never found themselves in before.
• Some tips for families and siblings with how to handle the death clearing after a family member passes.
• Laying out papers and photos and other items in a non emotional way helps his clients make decisions. Jeff helps to simplify the process.
• How does Jeff ground himself to do this type of work? 
• Staged to Stay. What does that mean? 
• What does Jeff mean by the “associated value” of peoples belongings? 
• “Love them, use them but don’t hold on to them just because you think there’s a monetary value attached”. AMEN!!!!! 
• “You can’t just donate your garbage to someone else”. HA! I love that! 
• “Finding joy and love for a piece again that’s been sitting there the whole time.”
• Sentimentality in the belongings. Separating the memory from the item. This brings on progress! 
• Jeff recommends asking “What does this item mean to you and why are you so connected to it”?

So when is the ‘best’ time to speak of death, if not now?

I have been ‘thinking’ about getting my important documentation started/ re-done for so long now that it’s quite embarrassing. I can blame it on the confusion of living in Sweden and still being a citizen of the US. But really? 

It’s time to have these uncomfortable discussions NOW and I’ll start it because I do NOT intend to leave my loved ones with a mess. 

Follow along as I decide how to tackle this death cleaning in my own home.

Let's see how often I say to myself, "Maybe I should hold on to it... just in case." Ugh.

Yeah, the time is now. For you too?

After taking the entire month of July off for her Radical Sabbatical, Åsa has uncovered that her life has moved into the *next stage* where ageing parents and ailing siblings have changed her perspective on what’s important now.  

The pieces of life’s puzzle are falling into place and the clarity and the vision of what is about to be the next stage of her very IMPORTANT LIFE'S work is being revealed.

Decluttering our bodies, minds, souls and homes is a process, a journey, and to prepare ourselves for the inevitable is an honour… and it can be fun! 

“The Art of Swedish Death Cleaning”... it was MADE for Åsa!! She is Swedish, she has an uncanny ability to discuss taboo topics and she loves to organise others.

Title of Episode: Moving from OutSourcing to SelfSourcing. What drinking less has shown me in 5 weeks.

Summary of Episode:  

I am now half way through my 9 weeks of skin medicine and being told that drinking was “off the table” otherwise the meds would not work. 

What did I discover about myself when I was given a directive of, ‘You can’t … ‘

What have I now been shown in this time about how I feel? Freaked out? Feeling like I am missing out? Feeling any peer pressure? 

Nahhhh. Complete opposite. 

I feel fantastic. 

What has become apparent is that I needed something outside of myself to shove me in the direction I already knew I needed to go in. I was given the answer that I asked for. 

See how I OUT-SOURCED my answers when I could have SELF-SOURCED? 

Ahhh, the journey continues.

IN THIS EPISODE I TALK ABOUT:

• 5 weeks of drinking a lot less often, what does my life look like? 
• How do I feel? Proud of myself.
• Feel clear in my attitude, feel light. Joy is close to the surface.
• Side effects: weight loss. Duh. 
• Now craving sweet things as I am not getting my sugar from wine. 
• What’s the hardest thing I have come up against? Dinner time, food prep.
• Love not being bound to the home.
• Laughing easier. Sleeping better. No fog. I am present. Pep in my step.
• What it feels like to be *proud of myself*... it’s been a while since I had that feeling. Totally honest with you here.
• Finding balance in my business life and my personal life and why was there a disconnect?
• Clearing out the fog, what else do I need to see God? 
• Now I feel supported by MYSELF. Energetically lighter by not adding a depressant in my body every night. Powerful. 
• Outsourcing my power, purpose, intention, how do I bring it back to myself?
• How do I self source what I’m looking to achieve? 
• I am not empty, broken or missing something. Neither are you. 
• Stop trying to find the hole in your wholeness.

- People have a need for control of so many things, most of all emotions and outcomes. 

- We can not own people. We need to want to be with people who want to be with us of their own free will. 

- We are transactional as humans. We always want something in return. 

-How can I have or get this? Be the energy, not by asking. You will get it anyway.

- Dating apps. “If you don’t understand the arena, don’t be in it.” 

- There are no quick fixes or quick solutions. “Love is about a decision”. 

- Love languages AND fight languages.

THE THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS IN THIS EPISODE ARE SOLELY MY OWN. If you feel you have addiction issues, please go seek help. You deserve it. Xx.

Alcohol has slowly been creeping more and more into my day-to-day and I am officially over it. 

Gross little drug that when used properly is lovely. 

When used in excess, causes hurt, shame, sickness, broken families, embarrassment and guilt. And that’s on a good day!

Listen, I am ALL IN for celebrating life but what has happened slowly but surely in my life is that every day drinking has become completely and totally normalized…. now THAT is no bueno for me because I don’t like the way I FEEL.

Perhaps balance is possible? Maybe it isn’t. Only way to know is to look at it and talk about it. Without shame. Maybe you can relate?

IN THIS EPISODE I TALK ABOUT:

1. Åsa, why are you obsessing about this topic? 
2. I lived in the US from the age of 5 to 43. Early in my teens I started drinking alcohol. 
3. Age 13 I quit drinking alcohol only to take it back up again at 30 
4. Didn't drink but smoked cigarettes to beat the band (drug of choice) throughout high school and college.
5. Uptight, controlled, controlling, judgmental all those years. 
6. At 30 I started slowly introducing alcohol back into my body and life. 
7. Drinking in the US was an ant issue because “everyone did it”.
8. I thought this was normal. Until I was shown something else. 
9. Sweden, zero tolerance for drinking and driving. Which I love. 
10. The amount of mental energy that alcohol now takes in my life is exhausting.
11.  Wake up in the middle of the night, brain off and running.
12. When I went to my 50 year health control check up, how she reacted.
13. Antidepressants + anti inflammatory medicines and alcohol. How does that work? 
14.  What do I do if I don’t drink? Had to look back to when I quit smoking. How did I do that? Had to find a mentor.
15. “I was a derelict of a child”. Side note: I do NOT blame my parents.
16.  One of my best friends who considers herself an alcoholic never wakes up in a fog, never wakes up with guilty feelings. I want to feel like that!! She’s my hero! 
17. Asking myself … how do I FEEL? Blindly drinking on a Tuesday night. No consciousness around it, just doing it out of habit. 
18. “Help me see, God, what I can not see”. Went to the skin doctor to get some help with the eczema around my eyes. TRUE STORY! 
19. No alcohol for 9 weeks. So, yeah, will I stop breathing if I take a glass of wine? Seriously?!
20. Time to wake up, Åsa. Look at YOURSELF and your daily habits and determine for yourself… do they make you feel good? 
21. Look for the BALANCE in life.
