The Designed Life

Welcome to eclipse season friends! In preparation for our first eclipse of 2024, we’ll be explore the significance of eclipses, their disruptive nature, and how they can propel us onto unexpected paths.

Our first lunation of the month is a new moon in Pisces. This new moon carries a very dreamy, imaginative energy that urges us to connect to a larger experience and think outside of the box. It’s followed by the much-anticipated Libra eclipse. This particular eclipse prompts us to explore our relationship to conflict, compromise, and finding harmony.

In this episode we explore the nuances of identifying, understanding, and cultivating security in relationships, whether it be a one-on-one connection, a group setting, or even our relationship to self.

Our relationships provide the backbone for our ability to grow, heal, and evolve, but only when we feel safe enough to do so. Feeling secure is a foundational key to growth, stability, and support and requires conscious efforts to be vulnerable and empathetic with ourselves and with the people we are in relationship with. Join us as we ask, what does security look like? How can we recognize it? And most importantly, how can we actively work to make it a consistent and vital part of our lives?

The holiday season is inherently complex. It is a microcosm of everything that we’re challenged to do on a daily basis: set boundaries, navigate challenging emotions, and deal with pressures from relationships, finances, and time constraints. Needless to say, it is...intense.

In this seasonal episode, Hollis and Kimmy discuss tools beneficial to finding a sense of center in times of high intensity. Coming back to our center allows us to come back to the present moment, hold ourselves with grace, and ground ourselves in gratitude.

In their conversation they get in to the specifics of what the decision making process looks like, how to back decisions based on our value systems, why defining our values is important, and how to tap into the wisdom of the body.

The beauty of purpose is its innate fluidity. So why do we feel so much pressure when it comes to thinking about our purpose?

In this episode Hollis discusses how to uncover valuable insights into understanding your true self, defining your core values, and embracing a purpose that transcends the confines of work.

When we differentiate our ego-driven motivations and authentic desires, our unique sense of purpose will become clearer as it evolves in every aspect of our lives.
