The Modern-Day Healer

There’s only one pre-requisite for becoming a modern-day healer.

It isn’t a degree, a certification, or anything you can learn from a book.

It’s living your truth, in your wholeness, as the Light that you are.

Today’s episode is my story. It’s a story about how I used to live my life in a constant state of defense.

How I used people, drugs, alcohol, and even thinking to numb the pain of my very existence.

It’s a story of desperately wanting to help others but needing to learn how to help myself first.

This is the story of what life was like for me before I got out of my head and began to live from my heart.

It was a painful time, not just for me but for many others as well.

I grew up repeating the mantra, “Everyone has their vice,” to myself, justifying my escape routes until one day, I woke up from the nightmare and stepped into the dream that was waiting for me all along.

If your mission in life is to be of service and to help other people heal, there are some golden nuggets in this episode about how you, too can clear yourself out to become the constant channel for your higher self and light to flow through which of course, is the only pre-req for being a modern day healer.

Your voice is meant to be used so that your desires can be heard and responded to accordingly.

By your lover and laws of It All.

But for that to happen, it’s essential to understand why no one seems to be listening.

Have you ever stood in the kitchen after a long day and pondered how easy it seems for your mate to plop down on the couch, scroll mindlessly through SM, and watch the game while their dinner is prepared by a personal chef just feet away?

“Must be nice,” you think to yourself.

But also, there must be a reason for this dynamic.

Cue the rigorous honesty…

How many times have you voiced that you’d love some help with the food prep so you can get done quicker and have more time to do literally anything else than cook?

How often have you allowed him (or her) to stand next to you at the counter and chop imperfect onion bits or peel cucumbers and potatoes?

And how often does he (or she) ask you for “help”?

To be his partner, to love him, to hug him, to hold his hand and kiss him?

The truth is, you might say you want to be held, embraced, and cared for, but if you don’t ask for these things, you don’t have the opportunity.

You might say you want money, clients, and creative direction, yet realistically, if you don’t use your voice and ask for these things, you don’t allow yourself the opportunity.

But why?

Why would we ever hesitate to ask for the multi-dimensional abundance this world has to offer?

And more importantly, how do we open ourselves up to accepting it like the partner who accepts homecooked meals four times a week without hesitation?

This is precisely what we cover in today’s episode of The Modern Day Healer podcast.

Join Nicola Navon and me as we explore the topic of using your voice to declare what you really want, allowing yourself to become open enough to receive, and not getting caught in old worthiness validation loops amid your journey home to your authentic self.

You know there’s more waiting out there for you.

All you need is a path, and this episode is a gorgeous place to start (if I do say so myself)!

See you inside.

🖤 Dana

When I first started my online business (a decade ago!) I used to have this one niggling fear that stopped me from doing my job more times than I can count.

It was the fear that I wasn’t “professional” enough to be a business coach. Cue all of the images of corporate America with their tweed jackets and conservative slacks. I tried that life, and it wasn’t for me. So I couldn’t figure out how to find the happy middle between being me and being who I thought you wanted me to be.

"Is my hair brushed? Can I wear these jean shorts? Will people care if I’m still in my bathing suit cover-up after swimming with the kids?"

The thought of a polished Amy Porterfield pops into my head, with her scripts and ironed shirt tucked neatly into her probably very clean pants while I’m over here scraping some crusty baby food off the front of mine.

“Should I do it? What will they think? Will they take me seriously? I hope so…because this is all I got.” 

These are the real thoughts I had before I came to the conclusion that actually, the people who come to me like me because I’m me. They feel comfortable taking off their mask because they see me taking off mine. And sometimes it ain’t pretty. But the point of what we do as mentors isn’t to continue building a facade, it’s to break it down so others feel inspired to do the same.

My friend (and basically neighbor), Jessica Hawks, has built her massive online presence and multimillion-dollar business around what makes her most unique, not what might help her fit in.

This episode is jam-packed with ideas for how to show up more authentically online as well as how to find your niche (the people who want what you’ve got in the way that you have it), plus super simple strategies for how to use TikTok to expedite the process of finding your fans. It’s crazy good.

I hope you love today’s episode as much I did!!

Muah!

What if there was a way to feel so ridiculously confident in your abilities to go out there and help others heal that you could finally make the decision to stop tip toeing around and start WORKING your magic today?

I’m talking using your God-given gift to share the experiences of Truth you have to offer (in whatever way lights you up)  to help thousands thrive and RECEIVE money for your service in exchange.

And lots of it. More of it. More than you’ve ever received before…

In today’s raw and delectable episode, I interview Nikki Ananda, a beautiful, embodied example of what happens when you put your spiritual healing practices where your mouth is, HA! The topics we cover today are highly flavored with sex, vulnerability, and the concept of becoming a “receiver” (literally and figuratively) in your life and business.

The magic of this conversation is the discovery that all healing runs parallel to itself at some point. So no matter where you begin, as long as you take action and make it a priority to build your spiritual perception muscle (we give highly detailed advice for what practices you can employ for yourself in the episode if you haven’t got any yet!) the capacity to hold more of the richness of life (ahem, hello passion, money and love!) in any form WILL come to you…it’s just a matter of time.

In today’s episode (recorded over a year ago!) I had the opportunity to sit down with one of my business heroes, Ray Edwards.

What’s it like when the person you’ve looked up to for almost a decade for their prowess in business, their laundry list of absolute rockstar clients (ahem, Tony Robbins, Micheal Hyatt and Jack Canfield to name just a few…but nbd) and their uncanny ability to turn words into dollars sits across from you on Zoom as a guest on your podcast you ask?? Honestly, I couldn’t tell you because I blacked out from overwhelming excitement and don’t have a recollection…just kidding. It was like a fcking dream come true that’s what. We talked about the road to becoming an example for others of what’s possible in this lifetime, how Parkinsons Disease and alcoholism (or any other road block out of your control) can be the exact path to your life’s greatest gifts, how addiction has a funny way of affecting us all in some way or another and how it’s the great equalizer in many ways, reminding us that we’re all one at the end of the day and what’s possible for Ray is possible for me and what’s possible for me is possible for you. I couldn’t be more thrilled for this episode that’s been sitting quietly in the vault for so long to be released into the wild where it belongs. I hope you get as much from our conversation today as I did. As Ray eludes to in the episode, you never know what person, discussion, or event will be the catalyst that’ll get you to where you ultimately want to be, but my hope is this raw sharing between the two of us could be it for you.
