The Modern Phoenix

Becoming who you’re meant to be isn’t really a destination, it’s a journey, and it’s a journey filled with Phoenix moments and nudges from the Universe. It’s an ever-evolving path that requires us to learn how to tap into our zone of genius and intuition to inform our next step in life. Today on the It’s All Me podcast, I invited an amazing woman and friend, Andrea Serrano, to join us and share her own personal journey of becoming who she is meant to be.  Andrea is currently living her dreams in Charleston, South Carolina as a wardrobe stylist, producer, Creative Director, brand developer, TV and event host, and small business champion. Listen in to hear how her mindset and willingness to embrace the Phoenix moments in life led her to where she is today (and be prepared to fangirl, because Andrea’s story has us dropping some BIG names).  G and Andrea discuss: [05:15] Andrea’s zone of genius origin story [12:56] The powerful program running in Andrea’s life [20:59] G’s New York Phoenix moment [23:11] Mindset, discipline, and Andrea’s evolution [28:18] How following nudges from the Universe took Andrea from baker to costume shopper [35:54] Andrea’s super-human trait [39:32] The impact of having a mentor [45:00] The power of a woman’s legacy [53:49] What Andrea is currently working on in this season of becoming   Get Your Tickets to The Phoenix Sessions:  An in-person mini-retreat on March 11th, 2023, in Charleston, SC Details + Tickets: The Phoenix Sessions — Gervase Kolmos Private Coaching Spots Now Open Feeling like it might be your season of inner work and G is your guide?

Whether you are a mother, know a mother, or you’re influencing people's lives, you know how draining extracurriculars can be. As parents or caregivers, we may find ourselves exhausted from rushing the kids around to every practice known to mankind. As children, the pressure to be in everything or even be the best at something they don’t really care about could be crushing their creative spirit or motivation to participate. This is the line we walk as parents, feeling the pull to enroll them at a young age so they don’t “fall behind” but also wanting them to be able to express themselves, find their joy, and just be kids.   When G found herself beginning to unpack the “normalcy” of extracurriculars, digging into the nitty gritty questions - as she does so well - she came to realize how this topic spills over into our adult lives as well. And of course she couldn’t help but ask - WTF is up with that? Listen in to today’s episode and join G in radically changing the way that we view extracurriculars, not just for kids, but for grown ass women.   In this episode, G discusses:   ]00:57] G’s journey through naivete, judgment, and entering a new season of motherhood   [06:01] How her zone of genius led her tot question the extracurricular norms   [08:21] Feeding the spark and letting joy lead (for our children and ourselves)   [17:48] Reawakening our joy through extracurriculars [19:36] Why intentionality makes all the difference with extracurriculars [21:25] The mindset shift that changed the game for G and her kids     Get Your Tickets to The Phoenix Sessions:  An in-person mini-retreat on March 11th, 2023, in Charleston, SC Details + Tickets: https://www.gervasekolmos.com/the-phoenix-sessions Private Coaching Spots Now Open Feeling like it might be your season of inner work and G is your guide?

As modern-day women, it can be common to feel disconnected: from ourselves, our past, and our community. This feeling of disconnect can make it even more difficult to see through the heavy, winter seasons of life to the light at the other side. On today’s episode of the It’s All Me podcast, Gervase sits down with Becca Piastrelli, author of Root and Ritual, to discuss how capitalism and instant gratification have severed us from nature and our callings, how we can reconnect to ourselves and our inner knowing, and how we can be the village that many of us long for. If you have been feeling alone, feeling the pull to reroot into your sense of self, or wanting to reconnect with a sense of community, you’ll want to listen in!   G and Becca discuss:   [2:15] Suburbia, murder, and chickens [7:04] Creating the life you want minus the BS excuses [16:51] The systems that sever us from intuition and remembering ancestral practices [28:08] Slow living and aligning your life with the seasons [37:57] The absence of “the village” and the practice of revillaging and rewilding [41:21] Becca’s advice on reconnecting in the midst of inner resistance [45:30] Gervase’s calling to reroot into her lineage [52:31] The next steps to revillaging     Get Your Tickets to The Phoenix Sessions:  An in-person mini-retreat on March 11th, 2023, in Charleston, SC Details + Tickets: https://www.gervasekolmos.com/the-phoenix-sessions Private Coaching Spots Now Open Feeling like it might be your season of inner work and G is your guide?

This isn’t New Year, New Me. This is New Year; MORE me. In this solo episode, G is explaining why sometimes we get stuck in the metaphorical birth canal between our intentions for a new season of our lives and the manifestation of said intention.

Listen in so you can stop staying stuck and learn your power to move yourself THROUGH the messy, uncomfortable and unpredictable middle as your “Phoenix self.”   In this episode Gervase dives into:   What her HOT new event series, The Phoenix Sessions is REALLY about and who it’s for.
