Be Mythical

This week's show is with Vanessa Broers. Vanessa Broers is a transformational author, speaker, coach and the host of The Practical Magical Show. From running away from summer camp at age six, to getting called to the principal's office at age 11 for writing a letter to the teacher telling the truth about disliking class, Vanessa seems to have been born with an inability to behave or play by the rules. Guided ferociously by a devotion to truth, insatiable appetite for more and a refusal to compromise anything she loves, Vanessa was put on this planet to liberate women into their highest potential professionally, power spiritually and expression personally. She supports powerful women to unapologetically unleash the full truth of who they are so they can create magic, live fiercely incredible lives and enjoy every single moment - while experiencing unprecedented levels of success. In this conversation, Lian and Vanessa explored what it means to become your unique medicine, our experiences with the coaching industry, the journey from coach to doing your deepest soul work, why it's hard, what it costs, what it brings, i.e. why it's worth EVERYTHING! We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below or share in our fb group. What you'll learn from this episode: I adored Vanessa's seeing of the coaching industry and how it feels when someone first enters it… magic is real, possibility, wonder, and innocence - what we've always been searching for! When you reach the place that it appears everyone wants to get to and you still don't feel it's right - what then? This is something that so few people seem to be speaking about. And as we spoke about, much of that might be because coaches don't fully understand the ancient roots of what's called coaching in this modern world. Doing your soul work requires taking the long, hard journey into our wounds to alchemise them into gifts, this is essential in us becoming who we really are.

All The Everything is Lian's monthly solo show where she often shares what she's been creating, consuming, and celebrating before diving deep into a topic inspired or chosen by members of The Wolf Pack. The LIVE making of the show is recorded in our Facebook group and for the first 30 minutes before Lian hits the record button you are invited to a pre-show party to get up close and personal with Lian and have your questions on the month's topic answered. To receive a reminder of when the pre-show party and LIVE making of All The Everything is happening, make sure you're subscribed to our email list and are a member of the Facebook group. All the details you need are HERE! In this episode, Lian dived deep into the topic How embodying archetypes helps you to do your soul work. Sara from Team Waking The Wild said ahead of the show - to expect from Lian deep wisdom, celebration and tears of love and gratitude. AND we certainly did get all that. Here is a taste of some of the questions asked during the pre-show party: "What about people who have their feet firmly planted in the "real" world (*me*) but has a very strong draw to the magical world. Is working with archetypes "worthwhile" or would we be better served focusing on "other" things …." "Is it usual for someone to journey through the different archetypes? Or to embody different archetypes at once/ throughout the course of a week or even a day?" "Would you say Archetypes don't force themselves upon you or is there a bit of both? As in a clear invitation and sometimes a BIG prod but then they go quiet if you choose out?" Lian weaved the answers to these questions into the following topics that were covered during the show: What exactly are archetypes? Aren't they just fantasy or role play? How can they really make a difference to our lives? If I don't already know my archetypes, doesn't it mean I'm not magical? How do archetypes help people to do their soul work? What happens if we don't want to work with archetypes? Is it really that important? If you're at all curious about the role archetypes play in your life and why they are important, even vital, when it comes to you doing your soul work, this is the show for you!

This week's show is with Arielle Brown. Arielle Brown is a well known Intimacy Coach, Embodiment Guide and an Alignment Mentor. She is a teacher, facilitator, and ceremonialist specializing in energetic alignment, relational alchemy, and authentic communication skills. Arielle Brown guides visionary entrepreneurs, leaders, and creators towards embodying their full authentic self in leadership through healing and reclaiming disowned or suppressed aspects of their sexuality. Arielle's work is in service to helping humanity come into right relationship with truth and power–and in particular how we wield those life-giving forces in love and leadership–which ultimately begins with re-establishing our inherent connection to the Sacred. The private mentorship, mastermind, and membership containers Arielle holds create powerful, connected, and compassionate spaces to release distorted ways of relating with Self and Other rooted in shame, fear, scarcity, and self-abandonment, so we can be embodied blueprints leading the way in love for the world we wish to create. In this conversation, Arielle and I explored desire and how it can be a compass for our highest destiny, our soul path. We spoke about the different kinds of desire, the way fear shows up, and how to hold ourselves through the gauntlets desire will take us through. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below or share in our fb group. What you'll learn from this episode: There's compensatory desire that comes from wounding - the kind that compels us towards experiences that aren't for our higher good or that of the whole, and there's pure desire, which is how our soul is showing is what's for us. It's typical that pure desire will show up with fear too… we will need to bring awareness to the ways fear is distorting our behavior as we move toward what we desire. In order to create (and actually, to be created anew ourselves), we also have to release and allow to die what's no longer aligned… we need to grieve in order to receive pleasure.

This week's show is with Tad Hargrave. Tad is a hippy who developed a knack for marketing (and then learned how to be a hippy again). Despite years in the non-profit and activist world, he finally had to admit he was a marketing nerd and, in the end, he became a marketing coach for hippies. Maybe it was because he couldn't stand seeing his hippy friends struggle to promote their amazing, green and holistic projects. Maybe it was because he couldn't keep a 9-5 job to save his life. Whatever the reason, for almost a decade, he has been touring his marketing workshops around Canada, bringing refreshing and unorthodox ideas to conscious entrepreneurs and green businesses that help them grow their organizations and businesses (without selling their souls). He has also offered most of his workshops on a modified pay what you can basis (a small deposit to attend and then people choose the amount they want to pay at the very end). This all feels like a minor miracle as Tad spent his early marketing days learning and applying some very inauthentic, high pressure, extremely gross and pushy marketing approaches. This has made him suuuuper allergic to these kinds of approaches because he discovered they made him feel slimy (even in personal friendships), he didn't sleep well and he's very sorry to all those people he spoke with back in the day. After a decade of unlearning and unpacking that whole scene – he now feels ready and able to help other people find ways to market that feel wonderful. In this show, we spoke about your niche, aka your role in the community, illuminated through the lens of your Gifts, your Nature and your Wound. We explored what is meant by all three and how they inform both your work and your marketing. I'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below. What you'll learn from this episode: Your Gifts inform the shape of your work and also your marketing, what are you naturally good at and love to do? You Nature informs the tone or vibe of your work - this could be described as your personality. Often others can reflect this to us more easily than we can determine this ourselves. It's also so helpful to notice what Tad said about the way we will also benefit from honouring our human nature. Your Wounds inform the direction of your work - ie what you're taking from and to. I loved the ways Tad made the distinction of your wound vs your scar. Heal your wounds and share the stories of your scars.

This week's show is with my friend and many times past guest, the amazing James Tripp. James is an internationally recognised authority in the fields of self development, personal mastery and generative changework. ​Coming from a diverse background including philosophy, music, martial arts, movement culture and NLP, James is also the developer of the Hypnosis Without Trance approach to hypnotic facilitation as well as author of the critically acclaimed book of the same title. In his one-to-one work, James works with individuals looking to become better adapted in consistently creating outcomes they value and living lives they love. Since turning professional in 2007 his clients have included artists, filmmakers, entrepreneurs and business creators, c-suite executives, actors and performers, frontline services operatives, medical doctors, writers, special forces operatives and military veterans. Beyond his one-to-one work, James has presented at conferences and run workshops across Europe, Australia and North and South America, and his 'home turf (London and Edinburgh) workshops typically draw students from around the world. In today's show, James and Lian explored the topic of working dialogically vs diagnostically in changework… or put in differently, how we can honour and harness the unknown, unseen and unconscious when we're working, or rather communicating, with our clients, as healers, coaches and guides; how we believe the human mind works versus how it actually works, and why working dialogically is more in alignment with how we actually work. I'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below. What you'll learn from this episode: James and I spoke about how we tend to culturally adopt the technology of the age as a metaphor for how the mind works - currently, that's computers, however helpful it can be as a metaphor in some settings, it's ultimately it's lacking and limited as a window into how complex humans actually are, especially when it comes to change work. Working with clients in the deepest, truest and most functional way means recognising we're actually working with the clients in the context of their lives and their relationships, including their relationship with us as change workers. As soon as we sit with a client and begin communicating, we are both changing. Humans are complex, self-organising systems, we have an emergent adaptive intelligence. Although many people are adapted to the lives they've got, it's important to remember that adaptedness comes from adaptiveness - and we can switch our adaptiveness back on.

This week's show is with Daniel Fox. Daniel is an expert in relationships and dating and has combined his skills as an Author, Researcher, and Coach to help individuals achieve better experiences in these areas. He is the author of the book "The Altitude Code," which provides valuable insights into adult values development and leadership. In his role as a Dating and Relationship coach, Daniel helps women tap into their inner radiance and men rediscover the joy of loving service. He is an advocate for the power of polarity in relationships. In this show, Daniel and Lian dived deep and geeked out on intimacy, polarity and relationships… referencing Deida's three stages of relationships, Daniel's own seeing and articulation of these stages, archetypes and much more! I'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below. What you'll learn from this episode: Deida's three stages are Dependance, 50/50 and Intimate Communion. Daniel was speaking about similar stages as Tyranny, Anarchy and Symbiotic. There's a real cost to the lack of embodiment of mature Masculine and Feminine archetypes - and therefore a lack of symbiotic relationships - but we're largely unaware of that because they're barely present in our culture as a possibility in contrast to the norm This lack is why looking deeper and broader to history across the world and directly to the divine archetypes can be so powerfully illuminating.

The private mentorship, mastermind, and membership containers Arielle holds create powerful, connected, and compassionate spaces to release distorted ways of relating with Self and Other rooted in shame, fear, scarcity, and self-abandonment, so we can be embodied blueprints leading the way in love for the world we wish to create. In this conversation, Arielle and I explored the role of high sensation experiences in service of personal growth. What kinds of experiences they are, the reasons for choosing them and what they can bring in terms of both wanted and unwanted impacts, and how we can become more conscious of our choices. What you'll learn from this episode: High sensation experiences include taking part in medicine ceremonies, experiences that expand our relationship to our sexuality, and high cost mentoring containers. Whilst sometimes high sensation experiences can be completely aligned, there are times when they can be chosen from a fearful need for looking cool, not to be left out, or to meet someone else's expectations or desires. When choosing into high sensation experiences, being able to make the most of the opportunity they present and create the integration afterwards, it is hugely beneficial to have a deep devotion to staying attuned to our nervous system, really listening to what we feel and what we need.
