Hi my love, I am so excited to bring this solo episode out for you! One of my passions is making astrology relatable and witnessing how the astrology of the time is expressing itself in our world & every day lives. I truly geek out about this.

The Aquarian Age shift is truly exciting, ushering in a time of integration, equity, love & connection that has the resonance of a utopia when you explore it deeply. But the truth is, it's something we can bring about by our day to day actions & our commitments to taking personal accountability for a better self & a better world.

In the episode I explain: 

• What the Age of Aquarius is & How it works
• What Saturn & Uranus have to do with the Aquarian shift
• Soul purpose & life purpose & why that's so important now
• Understanding the Pandemic & Racial Justice from a macro & cosmic level 
• Why the Age of Aquarius could be the healing the world is seeking
• How to integrate the Age of Aquarius & why spiritual practice is a NON-NEGOTIABLE right now!
• Why exploring the opposite of any zodiac sign gives you clues on how to progress your life & the movement (think Leo energy) 
• Harnessing your personal energy at this time 
• Some Astrology 101 
• Cosmic wisdom to help ease anxiety & fear 
• The power & healing energy of kindness 
• Empaths: being inspired + informed so you can make real change
• What the Age of Aquarius means for Aquarians
• + I answer some of the questions that came through on Instagram! @natalia_benson

I’m so honored to share this captivating & deeply informative interview with Tori Washington, a spiritual lifestyle educator, energy healer, and coach. We dive deep into how white coaches in the spiritual community can drop the shame & guilt and really show up for women of color.

We talk about: 

• Tori’s experience as a multiracial woman in the spiritual community
• How the coaching space can change to serve humanity 
• The profound difference between calling in vs. calling out people on social media
• How white coaches can use our spiritual practices to take action & support the Black community

• Her beautiful vision for the future

"Listen. Empathize. Act."

On May 28th, I received a DM that completely changed my life, called me into my voice, & asked me to do deeper work within myself & as a leader. Rachel Autumn, a beautiful soul who I am so grateful for, reached out & called me to use my platform & privilege as a white spiritual teacher to speak up about the systemic racism & oppression that the Black community has been facing for centuries and continues to face in 2020. 

I am so honored & humbled that Rachel took the time to speak with me, come forth & share her story, & help educate us with a compassionate voice. She reminds us all that this is a human problem — everything has to change & we all need to shift together. 

We talked about: 

• What inspired Rachel to reach out to me & how it was transformative for both of us
• Rachel’s story & her experience growing up as a Black Woman in America 
• Her experience as a Black woman in the fitness industry 
• The importance of diversity & inclusion in the wellness space
• How white women can educate themselves & act as confident allies 
• How we can all use our voices to amplify women of color 
• Rachel’s prayer for the Black community & her vision for the future 

I am committed to listening, empathizing, taking action & using my platform to share diverse stories. I thank you so deeply for being on this journey with me.

THIS WEEK: STOP PLAYING SMALL

ALRIGHT MY DARLINGS, IT'S TIME TO STOP PLAYING SMALL!

Ask yourself—
Where do you let your small mind win every time?
Where do you doubt yourself?
Where do you get petty?
Where do you allow fear to trump courage?
Where in your life does this show up the most?
Where do you feel limited or constricted? Why limit yourself? Why hold back your light? Why are you playing small.. when you know you can be playing big?

Do you think by playing small you're keeping yourself safe? What is the story?
Let the story go.. it's time!

You are pure potentiality. You are so f*cking wonderful.

Every new level of your life will require a new expression of you and that is why inner work is never done.

Whatever you are ready for is what it will be ✨
It’s all about timing and readiness. 
Be patient.
