The Balanced Blonde // Soul On Fire

Jordan’s longtime friend and incredible creative entrepreneur Annie Lawless joins the show today in this episode about creating brands, healing, wellness, family and the OG blogging life. Annie is the co-founder of Suja Juice & founder + CEO of Lawless Beauty, as well as a new mama and a true wellness guru. If you’re looking for the go-ahead on your business idea, then Annie’s incredible insights and tips will inspire you to no end. Suja Juice was born from a pure passion for clean living. It started as a home delivery service, which coincidentally is how she met her now-husband, which we talk about! Now it’s a nation-wide company & a household name. Her most recent clean makeup venture, Lawless Beauty, snowballed from a petite lipstick collection to a full-on portfolio that’s taken Sephora by storm. You’ll get all the inside scoop on the latest products and the magic happening behind the scenes. There’s a nostalgic walk down memory lane as “grad-school dropouts,” with flashbacks to their blogging days and being part of the wellness scene when it was in infancy. Annie gives us an update on how her life has changed since becoming a mother to a darling daughter, Daisy, and her newfound appreciation for a quiet and fulfilling family life.  Thanks to Cured Nutrition for sponsoring this episode.

This insightful bonus episode brings the theme of entrepreneurship from a legal standpoint to The Balanced Blonde community. We hope this fact-filled conversation is a helpful resource to all levels of entrepreneurs who listen to this show. Also, we are excited to bring this episode to any lawyers or budding future lawyers to show that there’s not a one size fits all approach to becoming an attorney. There’s always a creative solution to find your niche & follow your passion.  Grant Atkinson is the founder and managing attorney of Framework Law, a truly innovative and unique firm built for creative entrepreneurs. Grant frames the legalities of brand creation and maintenance in such an accessible and warm way that’s collaborative and not combative. It’s one of the reasons Jordan loves working with him and wants to share him with you all. As a creative entrepreneur herself — who has had to learn the hard way on a few occasions! — Jordan knows just how important it is to have the right people supporting your brand.  They discuss Business Contracts, Businesses Entities, Trademarks, Copyright, Intellectual Property, what NOT to do when you start a business, and other legal box-tickers one should be aware of when creating a business. As a fellow creative entrepreneur with plenty of artistic pursuits of his own, he brings another layer of understanding to those working in this industry. He shares his professional journey, inspirations, and the elements that make his work so special. Thanks to Beekeepers Naturals for sponsoring this episode.

I asked you guys to send in all of your deepest & weirdest questions so I could answer them in one episode! My top priority is to share all of the love with our beautiful soul family and make sure I answer your burning questions and share from my heart. On the top of the agenda is the Celestial Diet, which is a hybrid of an SOS-free, plant-based diet and my modern intuitive eating style, with a sprinkle of otherworldly magic on top! I share my journey with food and healing, and how this particular lifestyle has helped me look and feel the best I have ever felt. Body positivity in all its glorious forms, from plastic surgery and botox to self-love rituals and different diets, is discussed openly -- you guys had a lot of questions about all of it! I also share how I communicate with spirit children, angels, spirit guides, hormones, the brief 48 hours that I had an IUD, and beyond. Lastly, there is a super fun quick-fire round and a True & False segment that dives into Human Design, business plans, past lives, childhood and so much more.

Lily Ashwell is an intuitive astrologer, artist, healer, and a dear friend of Jordan’s. She is a fellow Lyme warrior who has been by Jordan’s side through much of their healing journeys. She created her Heavenly Bodies intuitive astrology deck in the thick of her darkest times with Lyme disease, after walking away from her past career as a fashion designer and shop owner (many of you in Los Angeles will remember her beautiful shop in Venice). As she so eloquently describes in the episode, her deck became a vehicle to channel her purest form of self, and that emotional density is so present once you touch her beautiful card deck. Her ethereal aesthetic resonates with Jordan so deeply. We reflect on our medicinal mission to heal and the spiritual awakenings we both shared during our intense water fast retreat when we solidified our friendship. She also talks about her positive experience with Bee Venom therapy and how she’s learned to see the gifts of her chronic illness.  We love how Lily has harnessed powerful lessons from her dark night of the soul into something so poetic and beautiful. Her brave decision to leave a relationship and job no longer serving her, and throw her heart into this beautiful project is such an inspiration for those struggling to find their purpose. She’s a self-taught ‘astrology school dropout,’ but lives and breathes this energy so effortlessly — astrology is literally etched in her face! This episode will definitely pique your curiosity for the cosmos. You’ll learn so much about the significance of your Saturn Return, the moon/sun signs, and the different Houses. Her readings are spot on and I’m so excited for you all to get to know her and her brand, Heavenly Bodies, and watch her evolve in the spiritual space. To celebrate Lily’s beautiful journey, we’re offering a giveaway of her astrology deck.  To enter: Rate and review this podcast on iTunes and email me a screenshot at jordan@thebalancedblonde.com Follow @lilyashwell  + @tbbpodcast on Instagram Thanks to Olipop for sponsoring this episode.

This time last year, Kenzie Burke was a guest on this very podcast after Jordan was called to invite her on the show. Flash-forward one year, and their connection has blossomed from strangers to soul sisters. It’s crystal clear when you hear them together that their connection is other-worldly, and this is definitely not the first lifetime they’ve known each other!  In many ways, Kenzie’s life experiences have run parallel to Jordan’s own. From their memories of being born, dealing with Lyme, and healing through a plant-based diet to self-correcting their public images in a quest to be more authentic. Last year plunged both girls into a vortex of pain, bliss, confusion, and intense growth, a theme they delve into wholeheartedly in today’s episode. Plus, there’s plenty of fun girl talk on morning routines, beauty, astrology, human design, and spirit shapes/animals!  Over the last year, Kenzie has undertaken a profound spiritual journey that’s guiding her all over the world and launched an incredible biodynamic coffee and cacao combo that’s so in alignment with her purpose. Stay tuned until the end of the conversation, when Kenzie answers all the questions you sent in and reveals the exciting new projects she’ll be bringing to the world this coming year!  Thanks to Kin Europhics for sponsoring this episode.

Nikki Novo is a spiritual teacher and medium who is currently teaching Jordan how to unearth her spiritual gifts. Their close bond truly comes through in their readings, where they share the same visions. They go deep into this in their discussion today! Today, they discuss all things spirituality: reading chakras, communicating with spirit guides and manifesting love, transcending into higher realms, and reading The Akashic Records. Jordan helps Nikki learn about her Human Design and they both speak to Jordan’s guides! Nikki is only one of two mediums who Jordan goes to for guidance. She’s able to take up-in-the-clouds concepts and grounds them in a way that can work for everybody, from a stay-at-home mom to a CEO. As a mother, ex-editor, and blogger, she’s a testament that everyone has the potential to unlock these tools and can integrate them into their lives.

This is a fascinating deep dive and a very exciting conversation with author, activist, and spiritual teacher Marianne Williamson! Jordan has been a fan of Marianne’s forever, ever since she read ‘A Return to Love’ and turned to Marianne for her accessible teachings on awakening, spirituality, receiving miracles, healing, human rights, and now politics. Given the sheer expanse and magnitude of Marianne’s professional and spiritual journey, there were almost too many subjects to cover, a variety of which have never been spoken before today’s show. They discuss politics and policy in great depth, Marianne’s 2020 presidential run, the mind body connection, healing chronic pain, the troublesome aspects of modern spirituality, and so much more! If you want to learn more about Marianne and Jordan’s takes on Q Anon & other conspiracy groups, this is the place to do it.  These are all heavy, potentially triggering topics, so come in with an open mind! Marianne’s insights are so grounded in love, knowledge, and hope, so we hope no matter where your beliefs are this will be a fascinating and hopeful conversation to you. Her message to young people, particularly women, to actively participate in the political sphere is so timely and relevant given the tides of political upheaval America has processed recently. We also go into common topics on TBB like human design, astrology, and where Marianne sees herself in 5 years!  Thanks to FourSigmatic for sponsoring this episode.

Jordan’s husband, Jonathan Albrecht, returns to celebrate his one-year veganniversary, and to celebrate, Jordan dedicated a special Q&A episode to his vegan evolution.   This intimate conversation between her and Jonathan dives into his smooth transition from ‘vegaquarian’ to vegan, from sampling all the meat-free substitutes on the market to dining out with non-vegan friends to cooking up a veggie-storm in the kitchen! For the vegan-curious folk out there contemplating taking the plunge, Jonathan’s straight-forward, relatable approach shows just how feasible it is to incorporate a plant-based diet into any lifestyle.  Thanks to everyone who sent over their thoughtful questions via Instagram. Inclusive conversations about nutrition and plant based living are what this community is all about! At the end we also get into our ayahuasca journey… which is so fun.
