Soulful Chats

What would happen if you actually gave your friendships the same energy and attention you give your intimate partnerships or even your health?

This new and final episode of the Sisterhood Series on Soulful chats, Doing the inner friendship work with Cassie Mendoza-Jones, is a story of what can happen when we give love and attention to our friendships.

Last year, Cassie reached out to me to inquire about Sisterhood School. There was a niggle inside of her that was calling her to heal past friendship experiences for herself and also for her daughter. She had some long held beliefs around friendship and wanted to re-write them to enable her to have greater acceptance for her different types of friendship and feel enough in her friendship.

Cassie Mendoza-Jones is the bestselling author of You Are Enough and It's All Good, and Aligned and Unstoppable (Hay House), and a kinesiologist, NLP practitioner, business alignment coach, podcast co-host, naturopath, writer and speaker.

She works with women, and with entrepreneurs, healers, coaches and creatives who are driven, devoted and honouring their dreams, and who want to become more powerfully aligned with their bigger vision, reprogram their mind and beliefs toward success, and create more of what they really want in their business and life.

Through her writing, bestselling books, online courses, workshops, meditations, private coaching and social media presence, she supports women in clearing their blocks, aligning their energy, and changing their beliefs about what's possible for themselves.

We chat on,

•Healing from past friendship experiences

•Changing your friendship beliefs; from only having one friendship circle is the only way to do friendships to accepting many different friendship circles

•Receiving friendship invitations that do not feel aligned, yet you find yourself saying yes to feel included, when you know you really wanted to say no

•Adjusting your friendship catchup to suit your current life situation

•Demonstrating healthy friendships to your children

•Releasing friendships and trusting the stage of your friendships

•Friendship breakups being harder than breaking up with a intimate partner

•Feeling enough in your friendships

You can connect with Cassie here and find out more about ways to work with Cassie here.

Are you looking for permission to release a friendship?

In true Manifesting Generator style, Richa shares her journey of releasing friendships, giving us permission to not force or keep a friendship alive just because you have been friends in the past. Some friendships are not meant to last the distance.

This is such a common concern I hear from women, struggling to let go of friendships and yet being in the space of feeling like you have no aligned friends can be really lonely and challenging. Richa shares her journey of how she managed this space and how giving our energy to a few friends can be as powerful as having a lot of friendships. And how she has maintained her friendships despite having friends across the globe.

We chat on,

•Deep and meaning friendships

•Having a few friendships

•Adult friendships

•Genuine connections vs. organic connections through life stages

•Allowing our friendships to move through life stages and letting your friendships be because of what life stage your at

•Feeling forgotten and left behind in friendships

•Maintaining long distance friendships

•The importance of maintaining friendships despite having a significant others

•Trusting your intuition when it comes to making friends, if someone doesn't feel good, then let them go!

From feeling like she had to dim her light around people to standing in her truth, this is a story of Emily's journey as she entered my Unravel group program 12 months ago to where she is today.

Emily is a ⅖ emotional manifestor, who 12 months ago was in a job she is incredible passionate about, a loving relationship and living with her 2 besties. Yet there was something in Emily that still felt like she couldn't fully express herself. She has now created a new career path blending all her passions, opened new communication channels with her partner which led to them moving in together, called in a tribe of sisters around her and is fully expressing herself in life.

This episode is for those looking to understand what it is like to be inside my group program Unravel and what is possible for you. It is also a story of a manifestor who dimmed her light for too long, thinking she was too much, only to stop dimming her light and stand in her truth.
