Weaving Your Reality
Welcome to the space where you weave a new world of soul led self expression, in a world of infinite possibility.
Weaving Your Reality holds conversations that weave inner and outer technology as a vehicle for your soul’s expression in the world. We explore entrepreneurship, creativity and ritual in the digital age.
We talk about business here — but not the kind built on burnout or boxes.
We talk about creativity, visibility, and digital presence — not as strategies to squeeze into, but as sacred technologies for frequency, storytelling, and energetic leadership.
This is not just a podcast. It’s an invocation.
A whispered reminder that you are the creator — and everything you build from your center carries the codes of who you really are.
So let this be an invitation to weave boldly.
To create not from pressure, but from presence.
Not from performance, but from truth.
To design your life, your brand, and your online expression as a sacred offering.
May the frequencies you tap into here remind you of your inner technology.
May you be moved into aliveness, joy of creation and playfulness.
May miracles unfold as a natural side effect of being fully alive.
Thank you for being here.
Thank you for weaving your reality alongside me.

168: Trust Your Soul’s Journey
The question is not how to get millions of podcast streams and make YouTube videos that hundreds of thousands of views, but … what did my soul come here to learn? People who are embodying their soul’s calling have a certain frequency they carry. It’s never too late to ask that question and discover what lies beneath desires, anxiety and addiction. The only sustainable way to show up on social media is to Share because you genuinely want to share, not just to build a brand. There’s no formula for the perfect social media presence, brand or business, only moment by moment tuning into what’s meant to come through you.

167: Let Go Of Busy Work, Connect to What Matters | Creating A New Paradigm From Within
Your biggest contribution is the same thing that makes you feel alive. When you let go of “shoulds” and live from that place, everything changes. It takes trust, it takes letting go of opinions, but on the other side of it is a profound sense of being a vessel for what’s meant to come through you. In this solo episode, I share a 5-step process that’s helped me move from “busy work” to giving my energy to what matters. I also share a harmful social media habit I’m ready to rewire, and the productivity system that I’ve been using for the past year that makes all the difference! The 5 prompts shared in this episode: Things I’ve already taken on and agreed to deliver Things I enjoy doing Exciting outcomes Whispers and ideas that have been in my field Things I can take off my plate to make space Mentioned: The Heart Bowl becurrent workshop with Sophie Chiche: manage your energy, not your time Trello Ksenia’s meditations on Insight Timer Ksenia’s cacao meditation on YouTube Related episodes: 118 Sophie Chiche: Manage Your Energy, Not Your Time 145: Michelle Sinnette – New Paradigm of Business with Legacy Cacao Founder 155: Share What Moves You, Not What Makes Sense 157 Monica Carota: Intuitive Mentorship, Meeting Your Guides and Converting Dollars To Blessings New interviews on other podcasts: Ceremony Circle with Alyson Charles | 31: Cultivating a Sacred Connection to Source, Your Soul & Social Media Audience with Ksenia Brief Free Time with Jenny Blake | 029: Funded By Source with Ksenia Avdulova Connect with Ksenia: kseniabrief.com Ksenia's email list Instagram @athomewithksenia YouTube Ksenia Brief TikTok @ksenia.brief Subscribe, rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts Follow the podcast on Spotify
