  • 18: Building from Rock Bottom: Business Energetics & Owning Your Vulnerability

    We get a little vulnerable in this episode, and share about our Holistic Business Building Journey. We share the birth story of All Connected Agency, and how, quite frankly, this business was created from a rock bottom... but “all things work together for the good.” We share how we build business through energetics and moving forward with alignment, not just the big financial goals. Because the dance of our business is FULLY energetic. We've found that our medicine and magic lies in helping clients bust through business and visibility blocks in order to grow in full alignment and authenticity. 


    We explore:


    • How vulnerability and visibility have been the initiatory invitation for our business and personal growth this year.
    • How Dawn was one of the first people to be replaced by AI back at the end of 2022. And how Dawn and Elyssa both experienced a rock bottom at the end of 2022, which then birthed All Connected Agency. The initiation of entrepreneurship and the path these two spiritual ladies walk together.
    • Using Lacy Phillip's To Be Magnetic form of Neural Manifestation as the backbone of our business growth.
    • How we bring our healing practices into our work with clients, and hold space for them to get REALLY authentic about what they're building, and what they really want.
    • Business success is not solely defined by financial metrics.
    • The flat out magical business owners we've attracted into our Holistic Business Society, our group coaching container for alchemy and initiation.
    • Our collaborative innovative creative business process.
    • Pivots, Portals, and our brand new offer: The Business Block Breakthrough & Abundance Activation.

  • 17: Kelly Brogan M.D.'s Relationship Hacks For When You're Triggered

    Get ready to shadow hunt spirituality! If you've ever wondered why wellness girlies and holistic health fans are so *judgy* — buckle up!


    Because in this juicy episode, our business bestie Kelly Brogan M.D. (New York Times Bestselling Author and force of nature) joins us to talk about the shadow side of so-called "spirituality," “wellness,” “holistic health,” and “activism.”


    Elyssa and Dawn helped to midwife Kelly's revelatory new book, The Reclaimed Woman. In this episode, we peel back the curtain to talk about how Kelly’s radical framework for self-relating has fully shifted how we show up, in business and in life. Together we lovingly dissect the shadow side of the wellness industry: rife with rules, rigidity, a sneaking sense of superiority, and making things and others bad and wrong (from gluten, to dropping an F-bomb, to “gasp” missing your daily face massage!).


    We discuss releasing self-righteousness in favour of playfulness and do some lighthearted shadow-hunting around the humbling journey of the sovereign path. Because even if seed oils are bad for you, judging the "F" out of others has consequences too. Kelly goes deep into how this has shown up for her as a mother, providing a sigh of relief and some soothing soul balm for holistic mamas and wellness fans everywhere. 


    We talk about how Kelly's practices of exiting the victim triangle and entering through the upset has helped us step into sovereignty in every aspect of our lives: from business and relationships, to healing the sister wound, to literally everything in between. The era of the Reclaimed Woman has begun!


    Good news, if you've been feeling alone on your path toward sovereignty, you are sooooo much more held than you think. Listen in and know that you're in good company of powerful women who get you! 


    We explore:


    • The shadow of the wellness-girly industry as it relates to motherhood.   
    • The radical practice of “entering through the upset” and why it’s probably the only spiritual practice you'll ever need.
    • Kelly’s HUGE revelation when it comes to parenting and relating to her daughters… how releasing good, bad, right and wrong in mothering will set you free.
    • The outliers (aka psycho-spiritual dimensions) at play when it comes to health, German new medicine and why setting a masculine container is an essential part of the process.
    • Finding the Middle Path, humbling oneself in the journey, stepping into play, and how this all relates to the Jungian journey of self initiation and reclamation.
    • The Reclaimed Woman as the resolution of the triangulation against the self, where you actually get on your own team and stay on your own team.
    • Kelly’s preternatural ability to call in magnificent women, how we are a movement and healing the sister wound together.

  • 16: Doing Business as a Mother: The Modern and Ancient Way with Jamie Arrigo

    As women in business, we are birthing a new way to be in business and be in service, and actually this new way is a calling back to the old ways, the ancient ways. We spoke to changemaker, visionary, rebel, professional creative, photographer, branding expert, and mother of three, Jamie Arrigo, about the really freaking cool way women are creating a new paradigm together these days. Our multifaceted conversation with Jamie ranged from memes and traditional advertising to zeitgeist trends, to breastfeeding on Zoom meetings, to being yourself and speaking your truth online, to millennial strengths and struggles. It struck us that this is an extremely special moment for women, one to celebrate. We also talked about a collective movement toward more spirituality, more god, and natural birth, and how yes, this time comes with so much challenge but it is also so ripe with potential. We spoke about how at this unprecedented time of the softpreneur, fempreneur, momprenuer, you have the capability to create literally any business you want.


    We explore:


    • How Jamie balances motherhood and entrepreneurship.
    • The new yet ancient way women are finding in motherhood and creative expression together.
    • Jamie's insightful and inspiring thoughts on community, collaboration, and creativity.
    • The double-edged sword of social media… The pressure and programming to be famous, how millennials all thought we needed to be special and what we're striving for now.
    • Women's reclamation of motherhood.
    • Breastfeeding during business meetings.
    • The incredible potential of this time.

  • 15: The Efficient and Effective Path To A Blissfully Abundant Business and Life with Kara Nicole Bitar

    One of the key tenets of magnetism, branding, and business is KNOW YOUR SELF. Kara Nicole J.D. had everything she thought she wanted, a graduate from Duke Law, working at one of the most prestigious firms in the Southeast, her life seemed perfect, and she had everything she'd ever "wanted"... but she was miserable. The time had come to know her Self. In this episode, Dawn and Elyssa's spiritual coach shares her remarkable story about how she moved from mastering law to putting Universal Law into practice. In this episode, we peel back the curtain a bit... because here's some truth: Dawn and Elyssa have experienced massive growth this year. Personally and professionally. We went from hiding to showing up. And now we’re actually teaching other incredible business owners how to bust their visibility blocks on the regular. We went from overtaxing our nervous systems to making Softpreneurialism a priority.


    And really, everything changed when we learned how we were structured to thrive… a system for knowing yourself like none other created by one of the most unique and inspiring spiritual coaches we've ever met, Kara! SO listen in and hear how Kara turned her life into her best life, and nope, it's not hype or a cliche, Kara is the real deal.


    We explore:


    • Universal law as a business owner from a former lawyer.
    • How to follow the call of your soul, and what that really means.
    • How success is unique to you, the more you understand your fundamental nature (which is unique), the more you are able to receive energy.
    • The true meaning of abundance, this one will LIGHT you up!
    • How to unlock your manifesting blueprint and unique gifts and talents (like your personal pie chart for receiving energy from the universe) to transform life on purpose, with passion and power as a truly aligned business owner.


    Wish you already had your dream website that expresses your essence and magnetizes people to you?.... Join us for: THE EASY AF WEBSITE WORKSHOP! So you never have to utter the words "I hate my website," again.


    Kara Nicole Bitar is an Optimization Coach and Kundalini Yoga Teacher. She holds a J.D. from Duke University School of Law and practiced high-stakes corporate litigation at one of the largest law firms in the Southeast. Despite having what most deem “success”, Kara was deeply unhappy. She left the career she had worked her whole life to achieve and embarked on a journey to understand how – and even if – she could be enlivened by life, have vibrant health and be deeply fulfilled. Kara now helps others live the most joyous, energized and successful versions of themselves. She does this through Optimization Programs she developed, Akashic Records readings and Kundalini Yoga. Kara’s work focuses not only on getting results for her clients, but doing so in efficient ways. Kara is also a KRI Certified Instructor of Kundalini Yoga, Reiki Master, Certified ThetaHealing® Practitioner and Certified SoulRealignment® Practitioner.

  • How to Build Your Holistic Healing Business w/ Lisa Levine

    Your reviews, ratings, and subscriptions mean so much to us and help other incredible softpreneurs like you find out how they can walk the path to their most authentic, spirit-led business. Please like, subscribe, and share the love. 🫶


    Can healing be lighthearted and joyful? Can marketing really be a healing modality? Can we infuse spirit-led business with more magic, fun, joy, creativity, laughter, and lightheartedness? Lisa Levine, founder of Maha Rose, held space for a whole new generation of healers in NYC and beyond to step forward when she opened the doors to Maha Rose Center for Healing in Greenpoint Brooklyn ~15 years ago. She is also Elyssa's reiki teacher (and initiated Elyssa as a Reiki Master in 2014). Maha Rose has been featured in the New York Times, The New Yorker, and Vogue. This life-enhancing healing space (which has a new incarnation as of last year) is a must-visit destination for healers and spiritual seekers in NYC and beyond. We chatted with Lisa about the Holistic Business Method, from marketing as a healing modality, to spirit-first intuition, to taking powerful action in the physical (the kind that enables you to create not just 1 but 2 physical healing centers in NYC, plus 2 retreat centers to boot!). We dig into marketing as a healing modality, clowning as a form of shadow work… and how your business expression has a whole vibration, frequency and energy of its own! This magical conversation is NOT to be missed!


    We Explore:


    • Creating a legendary healing space at a time when a whole new generation of healers was ready to step forward, and giving literal and energetic space for people to walk their healing path.
    • Trusting your innovative process, creative artistic spirit, intuition, and JOY when it comes to marketing. Permission to let your artist “freak flag fly”.
    • The long game of running a spiritual business and what it’s like to steward a physical space.
    • How Lisa’s relationship to Amma as a devotee inwardly inspired her to create a world-changing healing center, and how it has its own frequency and life-force.
    • Leaning into your child heart, and how that childlike innocence infuses Lisa's beautiful, creative work.
    • The uplifting advice Lisa gives when she teaches the art of creating a spiritual business.


    Lisa Levine MS LAc is a licensed acupuncturist, Reiki master, artist and the founder of Maha Rose. The tools she uses are needles and moxa, touch, shiatsu, Reiki, guided visualization, breath, laughter, and on very full moons- a song.


    She wants you to remember who you really are; letting go of everything that isn't serving you and connecting with your more radiant Self. She specializes in mental and emotional challenges as well as trauma and major life changes. She is available for acupuncture, reiki, bodywork, breathwork and group laughter sessions. She also offers spiritual business coaching and consulting.


    Lisa completed her Reiki Masters with Padma Gonzalez in 2008, her Breathwork Healer Training certificate from David Elliott in 2009 and graduated from Tri-State College of Acupuncture in 2013.

  • Unlock Creative Fertility in Your Business w/ Ariele Myers

    We've all heard of the Maiden, the Mother, and the Crone, but what about the Empress?!


    Holy moly this conversation with Ariele, Founder & CEO of Wisdom of the Womb was POWERFUL. Ariele is a Licensed Acupuncturist and Integrative Fertility Specialist who has helped thousands of women who didn't think they could have children, conceive and have healthy pregnancies.


    This talk was multifaceted and it really felt like circling with women at a campfire in ancient times: from creative fertility to owning being a queen rather than princess energy, to writing a book, to letting the feminine flow guide your business, to living your work as a spiritual entrepreneur, this chat had us swooning and so full of feminine inspiration. If you've been feeling like you're firing from too much Yang, Ariele will show you how to let the Yin in, so life and business and joy and creativity can penetrate you!


    We Explore:


    • Tall poppy syndrome and owning how shiny and sparkly you are, let’s let go of the narrative of being too much.
    • The empress: the maiden, mother and crone. It's so much better to be a queen than a princess.
    • Yin and yang and listening to spirit.
    • Creative fertility and book projects.
    • Getting pregnant in your late 30s and 40s.
    • Intuition as a business owner and the flow rather than the hustle (letting life penetrate you).


    Ariele is a Licensed Acupuncturist, Certified Herbalist, Womb Worker and founder of Wisdom of the Womb, The Fertile Mama Method and The Whole Woman Collective. Exploring and attuning to the cyclical nature of all things, including the body, relationships, business and even money, Ariele's passion is in infusing the ethos of the archetypal Yin/ Feminine back into life, for the sake of not only humanity but the planet. Lofty dreams, but luckily this includes play, dancing, pleasure, meaningful connection and deep rest.


    Ariele founded and ran Ariele's Apothecary in Hoboken, NJ right outside of NYC for ten years. There, she developed relationships with some of the top Reproductive Endocrinologists and IVF centers in the country. She received hundreds of referrals and eventually created Wisdom of the Womb.


    Ariele's passion now arises from the recognition that many of her patients who were struggling to conceive were ultimately disconnected from their cyclical natures. She recognized that a huge component of the epidemic of female infertility is a fundamental disconnection from the realm of the Feminine, including the body, the womb and the Earth.


    Ariele's mission is to share this Wisdom of the Womb to empower women to understand their fertility and the power of their wombs, so that they can live as the Creatrix of their lives and create the families they desire.

  • 10: Be More YOU in Your Business with Jenny Glick

    If you want to help more amazing business owners like you hear from badass expanders like Jenny, leave us a rating and review!


    What if you had a 7-figure business, had retired your husband, and moved your family to Mexico... but while they were surfing waves, you were stuck at your desk every damn day? That's where relationship mentor and revolutionary torchbearer for women, Jenny Glick, found herself... with all the trappings of success on the outside, but deeeep in a well of burnout that only an embodied approach to business could dig her out of. The amazing news is that Jenny took misalignment in her business as an invitation to usher in an embodied era in her business, with pleasure and intuition as her guide. And an intuitive offer that landed her a multi-six-figure year with ease and grace. In this episode we get real about the toxic burnout underbelly of the wellness industry, embodied offer ideation, and what softpreneur success is reaaaaally all about (and yes it does include greeting each day with a dance party, a luscious pool swim, and a cup overflowing with spirit). If you've ever wondered how you can let go of the gripping and loosen into a more pleasure-fueled business model, this episode does not disappoint. Jenny is an initiatory catalyst of a changemaker and she will light you on your way.


    We Explore:


    • How to build offers that come from deep within yourself.
    • How to build a business from a nourished and nurtured place.
    • The elephant in the living room of the wellness industry: entrepreneurs operating from burnout and adrenal fatigue (and how to move toward more alignment).
    • If your marriage is your ashram, so is your business: approaching all aspects of your life and business as a mystery school.


    Jenny Glick is a former traditional marriage and sex therapist gone rogue. She's a writer, torchbearer, and change catalyst for grown-ass women. With over 25 years of showing incredible women how to unlock rich, resonant lives – without all the fluff-you-up-coachy-empowerment-bullshit – Jenny helps you thrive in fulfilling partnerships, align with the compass and map of your own being, and come alive with pleasure… through the radical act of BEING MORE YOU. A wife of 25 years, mother, entrepreneur, and questioner of everything, Jenny lives in Southern Arizona with her hubs, their dog Jane, and a whole lot of wide open space.
