How much do you worry?

Worry is a disruptive force that has a tendency to consume our lives. Even when we know we're worrying, we start to worry about worrying. Then worry about how much we're worrying about not worrying. Can you relate?

It's natural to worry, of course. It keeps us alive! Still, most of us know we could be worrying a little less, and it can be quite challenging to stop this force once it's rolling. In this episode, I share a story about a lavender field I recently visited, and how, when I arrived for a seemingly *magical* experience, the entire landscape was covered in one of my greatest fears: BEES. Worry alert: Triggered.

In a moment where worry threatened to take control, I walk you through how I realized what was happening, coaxed myself out of the stress and worry-filled state, and back into the joy of the present moment.

At the end of the episode, I also share a very simple, somatic and breathwork exercise you can do when worry begins to hijack your joyful experience. Enjoy!

This Thursday thread is pulled from Season 4 Episode 59 featuring Jen's interview with Cheryl Fischer of the OMG Teach Me podcast.

I was on a rad new podcast last week, and it was such a fun interview that I asked the lovely Cheryl Fischer if we could cross-post it to my own podcast! She pulled out some great nuggets in me that I don't always get to on my own, which is a big nod to the power of a great and aligned collaboration.

So, in case you didn't catch this episode when I shared it on social media last week, here it is in an easy-to-listen way!

In this episode, Cheryl and I talk about FUN as a strategy for getting yourself out of all of the crap you feel currently trapped in – like a job you hate, a "bleh" feeling about life in general, getting stuck in the past, or even continuous bouts future-tripping. Joy is your strategy, and I'll tell ya why!

We talk about emotions like worry and guilt and how they are signals that you might have flipped your Joy Breaker, one of my favorite concepts to teach when I coach clients.

I'd also love to highlight the fab job Cheryl did leading this interview, doing so with great curiosity and wonder. We could all add a bit more of that to our lives by following her example. You can also see how much FUN she is having in this interview (and with her new podcast in general.)

My husband and I learned how to wind surf this weekend, and it offered us some powerful reflections on resilience, but I also realized what an amazing metaphor it is for following your intended life path.

Which makes this a perfect #ThursdayThread episode to reflect on what Felicia Bender shared on Tuesday about following your purpose.

Like learning to balance on a surf board while trying to learn how to pivot with the changing winds, following our purpose is not always easy. It can be outright frustrating at times! But the truth is that, like Felicia shared, it's supposed to give us little opportunities to be challenged and to pivot along the way, because that's how we learn to hone our skills, lean deeper into our flow, and allow our sails to catch so we can truly fly.

It can also help to have tools that support us along the way, and knowing your numerology life path can be one of them! I recommend looking up and calculating your own numerology life path and reflecting on what it could offer you in terms of understanding both your light and dark sides.

Our intended path is to lean into the ease and flow - the lightness. But we will always face resistance and challenges along the way - our shadow side. The shadow is here to increase our capacity for more and more light, so the difficulties we face are actually supportive to helping us grow! 

I look forward to hearing what you think, and please let me know if you've ever wind surfed. It was so much fun but also hard. ha!

This Thursday thread pulls out a theme from Tuesday's episode (S4 Ep. 55) featuring Gina Moon as I dive into the potentially "taboo" topic of pleasure and the power of embodying the feminine energy.

If the idea of "pleasure" feels taboo or triggering to you (in fact, I'm beginning to think that anything that's "taboo" is something to untether ourselves from), allow yourself to turn inward with curiosity. Why does this trigger me? Where do I feel emotion in my body when this topic arises? How do those emotions feel?  Do this with utter curiosity and as judgment-free as possible.

I also speak in this episode about how embracing my feminine power has offered me some major personal shifts in the past six months or so, and how allowing and embracing the power of extended joy and pleasure can help you make major moves toward achieving your dreams in the most easeful ways.

This is because embracing the feminine energy allows you to magnetize what is a match, so it comes TO you, instead of working so hard FOR it. (Choose and it arrives.) In fact, and as I describe in the episode, it's a misnomer that the strongest sperm wins the fight to the egg. Believe it or not, the egg actually chooses the sperm, and she allows her selection to come in. 

We've been living from this place of masculine "push" for a long time, and the pendulum is beginning to swing back. By prioritizing and tapping into your own feminine power, you can avoid burnout by choosing what is truly pleasurable to you and allowing life to unfold in the way that is in alignment for you.

In summary, embracing pleasure and stepping into your feminine power can help you manifest your dreams and desires, align to your purpose, and promote greater overall well-being.

What if you could stop working so hard to create a life you love, and instead, use pleasure?

Yep, you heard that right! According to today's guest, many of the challenges people face today is because most of us are taught to be oriented away from, instead of toward, pleasure.

Gina Moon says this is a big problem. That's why, in this episode, she unlocks the secrets of pleasure, and shares why it's such a powerful manifesting tool.

While pleasure is a taboo topic that makes most people cringe, by the end of the episode, Gina may have you wondering about some of the things you were taught about it and previous beliefs that perhaps you hadn't questioned before. You might even be curious enough to explore how expanding your joy into a state of deep, extended pleasure could help you energetically magnetize your desires into your life.

It's a fascinating conversation that opens up the aperture on many of the things we've been taught about joy and experiencing love.

Quotable moments from this episode:

• "Pleasure is sustained joy."
• "The point of our life is to live in pleasure and joy and to be fulfilled."
• "You light the world with your pleasure."

Listen to this episode to hear:

• The reasons we shy away from pleasure, and how that could be holding you back from contributing your gifts in a meaningful way
• How to use embodied pleasure to create the change in your life that you desire.
• The science behind how pleasure helps you magnetize the things you desire into your life

Are you a procrastinator? A perfectionist? Does fear get in your way? 

When we notice these "flaws" or "dragons" within ourselves, we will often try to push them away. But what if – instead of slaying your dragons – you invite them over for tacos? 

Shaming our flaws has long been an integral part of the self-development world. In fact, I was just introduced to a book yesterday where the author encouraged personifying your flaws as a villain and then consistently hunting down and killing that villain every day. I completely disagree with this approach.

The healthiest, most enjoyable, and most lasting approach to dealing with the most challenging parts of your personality? Accept them. Be compassionate with them. Love them. Realize they are, in fact, your super power.

Listen to this episode to hear:

• Why unshaming your flaws is essential in moving toward your dreams
• How to see, understand and embody your flaws as the superpower they are
• A practice you can do for feeling your "flawed" feelings, while choosing to move forward (with or without them)

How do you live your most authentic life? On the journey of self-development and healing, this is a question most of us face.

How do you prioritize your self care while continuing to step into your life's work? 

Amanda Hallam is a true unicorn who has been called to use her creative gifts in many ways. We've been working together for the past year as she steps further into her purpose to support others with their self care, through her business Modern Self-Care. Along the way, she has learned to lean into her joy – even when facing challenging questions and uncovering old beliefs she held in her mind and body.

We've previously spoken about reiki on the podcast, and my newfound love and appreciation for the modality. In addition to coaching people in supportive self care practices, Amanda is also  a reiki master whose gifts I have experienced first-hand. I felt called to introduce my community to her as a trusted resource for energy healing. She's an amazing talent, and I'm thrilled for her to offer her reiki gifts to clients in my upcoming program, Made for More.

Enjoy this episode, and reflect for yourself:

• What old stories or limiting beliefs could be stopping me from fully stepping into my gifts?
• What is one simple self-care practice I can add into my day today that makes me feel joyful?

GET TO KNOW: AMANDA HALLAM
Hey, I'm Amanda! I'm a self-care advocate, empowerment coach, and Reiki Master. 

I founded Modern Self-Care because I know what it feels like to put everyone else ahead of myself. I understand that not having your needs met can lead you to believe you just shouldn't have any in the first place.

For most of my life I thought that success meant devoting 100% of yourself to the external: work, family, friends, and other responsibilities. It took multiple cases of burnout to realize that without my own health - both physical and mental - I would never truly be successful. 

Having had a front-row seat to the collapse of my own self-care routine, I realized something: The quality of your life is directly proportional to the quality of your self-care. And while it takes years to recover from burnout, it only takes a few minutes a day to develop a life-saving self-care practice.
