Where do you desire expansion? How do you cultivate clarity to later get clear on a vision?  What is the most powerful transformation, healing tool, or technique you’ve experienced?  Are most of your clients LA based? Is there a lot of competition in your industry?  I’ll be back again next month with another round of Ask Me Anything questions. Keep sending in your questions!

After a cross country move to the house of my dreams, I’m feeling the love, support, restoration, creativity, romance, and all the things I spoke about wanting to call in as I moved into our new house.   I’m so grateful for the community support! This week I’m sharing an “Ask Me Anything” Episode specifically focused on how to get started in the woo, manifestation and finding clarity.  A few of the questions on the docket: Where would someone start if they are interested in the “woo” but unsure of where to start? Have you ever had a “woo woo” experience that scared you? Manifesting: pretending I have the thing vs. not being attached to the outcome - which is best?  I’ve been manifesting and energy was building then it hit a wall. How do I keep going? I’ll be back again with a second round of questions next week and we’ll do another round of AMA next month. I promise to cover all the topics and questions! Upcoming events to know about: * Join the free Soul Shine Experience live in Los Angeles in partnership with Jessie May Wolfe of HeartRise Movement taking place this Friday (and monthly going forward).  * Holistic Living Retreat | Tulum, Mexico Women’s Wellness & Manifestation Retreat June 21 - 26, 2021 * Learn more about my community offerings Culte La Lune (ouiwegirl.com/cultlalune) & Seachangers (seachangerscollective.com).

Are there spells you can explore from home in your kitchen to improve your love life? Can we break down barriers to prosperity through mantra, candle magick and crystal work?  In this week’s conversation with New Orleans based Spiritual Life & Business Coach, Tarot Reader, and Cultural Sociologist Keon (AKA Keyoncé) Dillon - the founder of Millennial Soul Food - we have the best time discussing a variety of topics.

A few weeks ago I was in the midst of a meditation practice, holding a vision of the home of my dreams. I already knew it in my mind. I’d created a list of it’s attributes, a vision board of what it would look like, imagined the feeling it would give me once it was mine - I was ready for the universe to knock and say: “Special Delivery! Here’s Your Dream Home!” As soon as the meditation was complete, I grabbed my phone to check my email, I opened the inbox and there was an email that said…. Can you guess? To me, manifestation has nothing to do with saying positive affirmations over and over again. Nothing to do with superstition. Nothing to do with sitting on the couch eating bon bons and watching Netflix while we wait on that delivery to arrive. It has everything to do with your beliefs and your vibrational frequency. In this episode I’m sharing my 8 Steps to Manifestation Magic! Since I began practicing these 8 steps here are a few of the ‘big ticket’ desires I’ve manifested: * A 5-figure book deal (before I had a social media following, like WHAAAT)! * The partner of my dreams, and trust me, he is made of magic. * Creative consulting clients that I freaking love. * The opportunity to travel the world (and get paid for it)! * And now…. drum roll! My dream house! I also share 5 questions to ask yourself to check in with your belief system. If the answers aren’t what you’d like them to be, you’ll know where to start after hearing this episode!

Are our wounds the key to our awakening? Is it possible to be free from, and emboldened by our past, rather than weighed down by it? In this week’s conversation with Somatic Therapist and Awakening Coach Zahara Jade, M.A., founder of The Truth Catalyst, we dive into her story of personal transformation. For the first twenty-five years of her life she was consumed by a rare, crippling autoimmune illness and intergenerational trauma. She takes us on her journey where at the age of 27, she was healthy for the first time in her life.  What was the catalyst?  Zahara shares her experience working with a somatic therapist to find the answers. In the process she released the roots of disease that had been trapped in her body and built a life design that supported total wellness in mind, body, and spirit. Today Zahara guides individuals on Somatic Journeys™ to transform trauma and awaken their authentic selves. She has worked with hundreds of clients around the world to help them overcome everything from anxiety, chronic illness, chronic pain, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, and lack of purpose.  You can find out more about Zahara and her work at thetruthcatalyst.com.

Can we use astrology to see where our souls have been in past lives? What is karmic astrology and how do we use it to support our healing and soul growth?  In this conversation with Astrologer, Intuitive and Spiritual Coach, Chelsea Jewel, I get a taste of her past life reading and healing experience by taking a look at the karma, patterns and trauma I’m carrying - and WOW - what she uncovers is incredibly spot on. She does this in her practice to support clients that have a particular pattern, relationship issue, or challenging situation they’ve been facing and can't figure out how to get past it. Chelsea shares processes and ideas for finding our way back to our own intuition, inner power and unique soul gifts. Her passion is helping women gain clarity on the unique gifts they possess and how they can apply those gifts to create a meaningful life full of excitement and purpose. In this episode we discuss what exactly karma is, tips for finding your soul path, how we know what needs to be healed from past lives, how to know when you are stuck in a past karmic pattern, and themes that are arising in past life readings most often in today’s times.

It's hard to be held down when you can't be shamed, belittled or humiliated. In this solo episode, an incredibly vulnerable one for me, I'm sharing my experience with doing shadow work. I'm sharing a story from my 15 year old self - a girl that was a straight A student, cheerleader and student council rep, who - to hide her insecurities - resorted to some pretty ugly behaviors. What is "shadow work" exactly? In Jungian psychology, the "shadow” refers to the unconscious aspects of our personality. More simply stated: the shadow is our “dark side.” It’s the emotions that we likely wish or sometimes deny that we have. It’s things like: jealousy, selfishness, greed and rage - it’s ‘bad’ behaviors like binging, cheating, stealing and lying. When we deny that we have these feelings they get relegated into our dark side. When we tell ourselves stories that involve pity, blame and shame - that’s the stuff that gets packed deep inside. When we ignore those parts of us, we often fall away from our purpose and integrity. If we're not honest with ourselves we can't be honest with others - and getting honest is how the freedom starts to arise within us. I'll share my process for learning to acknowledge and accept shadow with compassion, acceptance, and self love, without spiritual bypassing along the way.

On any purpose filled path there are beautiful highs and scary lows - in today’s conversation we go there. (TW) In this episode, Karsyn Dupree - a mama, artist and wellness enthusiast - and I share personal stories about finding our way through disordered eating and mental health challenges including anorexia and panic disorder.  I hope you’ll listen with an ear for healing. There’s an opportunity in this conversation to dig deep into the soul and face the shadow, touching the darkest parts of ourselves. Karsyn and I share how we each came through the fire to move closer to our true purpose.  Karsyn’s world includes a variety of spiritually connected passions. She’s a multi-hyphenate: a blogger, sharing her home and lifestyle, she’s presently training to become a birth doula (which I was so interested in diving into), and she’s a gifted artist - making music with her husband. Most recently, she embarked on a new venture - launching the podcast “Conscious As A Mother”. You can find out more about Karsyn and her work at karsynkdupree.com.

How do creativity and spirituality intersect? According to Callahan Woodbery - a creative coach, and aesthetic alchemist - it begins by inhaling inspiration and then exhaling your creative gifts for the world to interact with. Callahan’s art takes many shapes: she is an essayist, photographer, and printmaker who draws her inspiration primarily from her travels and excursions into the natural world.  One of the things that comes through so vibrantly in her work is her belief that our relationship to the Earth directly influences our relationship with our community, our creativity, and our sense of self. She’s a nature mama, and in her work she channels the voice of mother nature beautifully.  In this episode we discuss how being in the outdoors is the ultimate creative muse, what growing up in a family of artists is like, discovering that you can in fact be paid for your passions, the myth of the starving artist, the five guidelines for creative living, and even whether or stealing ideas as a way to spark inspiration (so taboo!). Callahan reminds us that connecting to our creative process is a deeply spiritual endeavor. You can find out more about Callahan and her work at thisiscallahan.com.
