Weaving Your Reality

In this solo episode, I share what's been happening behind the scenes since the podcast name change – it's been quite an energetic uplevel, bringing up lots of old stories ready to be released. I share about current projects I'm working on, lessons I'm learning from being mentored by Michelle Sinnette, making sure my invitations are "clean" before I put them out into the world, and trusting the unknown.

Mose's music is on all of my cacao ceremony playlists. It is thanks to him that I discovered Ayla Schafer, Danit, Suyana and other healers through song. His creations truly carry a vibration beyond words, and I'm grateful that we get to meet the heart behind the music that's been a huge part of my life.

In this moving conversation, we cover:

Co-creating with the spirit of plants

Founding weekly cacao dance (cacao ceremony with ecstatic dance) at Eagles Nest on Lake Atitlan in Guatemala

Cacao as a grounding plant medicine

Where to buy ceremonial cacao

The role that cacao has played in Mose's music and creative self-expression

How Mose found his home in Guatemala

Building bridges between cultures through ceremony

The power of intention

The difference between edit and remix

How Mose's edit of Danit's Naturaleza led to the explosion of his audience

How Mose chooses who to collaborate with and what ceremonial songs to edit

What is medicine music?

Being a channel for what wants to come through

Who is Mose the artist, really?

The story of creating Shante Ishta song with Suyana

Being funded by Source by sharing his music on YouTube and Spotify

Why going on annual solo retreats is instrumental to his work

The energetics behind a creative process

About Mose:

Mose is based in Guatemala on the beautiful volcanic crater lake of Atitlán where cacao ceremonies, kirtan, and ecstatic dance have had a major influence on his productions and DJ style. It is here that he founded weekly cacao dances where members of the community have the opportunity to journey deep into dance in a container of deep intention, free of alcohol. Having been nomadic since 2011, he has developed a sound all his own through interaction with cultures from around the globe. When he is not touring the world or playing these special events in Guatemala, he spends his time going into extended periods of retreat and silence, only to emerge with a deeper, truer and more refined sound. Beyond the multicultural rhythms and the steady hypnotic beat, Mose weaves ephemeral chanting of sacred songs and calls to love, kindness and compassion, often bringing in live musicians to create something beautiful and timeless. There is a universal element to his organic sound that appeals to a wide range of audiences, from the relaxed chill out space to the dance floor.

Monica is a Master intuitive, and experienced mentor, coach, and consultant who supports leaders and change-makers as they own and express their unique magic in the world. I met Monica through the Conscious Social Media Program, where she introduced me to the concept of being Funded by Source, as channeled by our teacher Michelle Sinnette.

Get ready for your understanding of money, abundance and intuitive business to be disrupted with this episode! 

We discuss:

• What it means to be Funded by Source
• Monica’s career pivot being an intuitive mentor
• Why Monica doesn’t follow other people’s blueprints on being a successful coach 
• What is intuitive mentorship?
• The role that a near death experience (NDE) played in Monica’s career shift
• Dolphin and whale medicine
• Meeting your spiritual guides
• Co-creating with the medicine of ceremonial cacao 
• Being grateful for having a body
• Leaving behind the “shoulds” and creating your own paradigm of business
• Being divine and human at once
• Being a 5D Laundering Machine
• Understanding 3D and 5D
• New paradigm heart-led economy
• Upgrading the consciousness of money
• How to tune into your intuitive knowing one step at a time
• Letting the Source take over
• How one conversation with Monica opened up a whole new realm of possible revenue for me 
• Why manifesting money is not it
• Being at home in yourself 

About Monica Carota: 

Monica is a Master intuitive, and experienced mentor, coach, and consultant who supports leaders and change-makers as they own and express their unique magic in the world. After a near-death experience 5 years ago, Monica’s intuition went from a quietly flickering candle to a bright, inextinguishable floodlight. As a result, she shifted her focus away from a successful corporate career, and started aligning all aspects of her business and life to her soul’s highest calling. She now works as an Intuitive Mentor, supporting leaders in a heart-led way – helping them awaken their intuitive gifts, and create a ripple effect of positive change in their wake. Combining her business acumen, deep understanding of the human mind, and precise use of intuition and channeling, she helps you remember that you are magic, and invites you to be a beacon of change from the pure gold of your heart’s knowing and your soul’s Truth. You can learn more about Monica and her approach at monicacarota.com or follow her on Instagram @monica.carota.

Funded by Source is here to remind you what you already know deep within as well as awaken you to a new realm of possibility.

We explore the topics of entrepreneurship, creativity, ritual and expanded consciousness in the digital age. We are weaving a new story of abundance - one that's beyond logic, spreadsheets and hashtags.

I am your host Ksenia Avdulova and my intention is to activate ripples of courage for you to share your own voice and medicine with the world, trusting that when you follow the whispers, you're fully funded by Source.

In a world of outsourcing, we'll explore the things that you can only in-Source, revealing the unique path that you came here to walk, creating your own definition of success.

I'm here to hold space of curiosity, play, courageous communication and unwavering trust as we dive between the physical, the digital and the unseen realms.

Synchronicity brought you here because you're ready, and deep inside your soul knows why.

I invite you to listen to the whispers.

Releasing enoughness, receiving aliveness.

With every breath, every thought and every word, creating a new world.

A world where you feel free to share your unique medicine.

A world where we tell a new story of creating, connecting and giving.

A world where you are fully FUNDED BY SOURCE.

Thank you Monica Carota for courageously introducing me to the concept of being Funded by Source, and Michelle Sinnette for being my guide in applying it to my own life.

Beyond the new podcast name, Funded by Source is a whole new possibility and an energetic container I'm excited to play with.

While Woke & Wired felt like something I created, Funded by Source feels like its own being outside of the realm of what I can perceive with logic.

In this episode, I share what I've learned from airing 150+ episodes, and how my understanding of expanded consciousness and entrepreneurship has been expanded ;)

I also share some of the biggest inspirations behind Funded by Source, including Monica Carota, who changed my life by courageously introducing me to the concept, our teacher Michelle Sinnette, who's been my guide in applying it to my own life and business, and Boyd Varty.
