her Self: IFS & Spiritual Entrepreneurship

While she admits she's always been a "woman's woman," Nisha Moodley admits that her own Heroine's Journey really began when she fully took a stand for sisterhood. When faced with a divorce, followed by the dissolution of a very deep and meaningful relationship, she recognized just how much she had been deriving her sense of wholeness from men. Nisha's devastation not only led her to surrender in the lap of her girlfriends but it also initiated her into the process of "choosing herself" and cultivating her own intrinsic wholeness. Through this, Nisha learned to partner with challenging emotions as her greatest allies. This allowed her to transform heartache into one of her life's greatest gifts. Tune into our sisterly conversation to discover the tools to help you also "choose yourself." Nisha Moodley is a Women’s Leadership Coach and the founder of Global Sisterhood Day. Inspired by the belief that the world will be set free by women who are free & sisterhood is key to a woman’s freedom, Nisha creates communities of ambitious women to support them in redesigning their lives & businesses.

The second child in a very patriarchal, Italian household, Jennifer Racioppi grew up estranged from her feminine essence. Then, in her late teens, Jenn had to have an emergency hysterectomy as the result of very aggressive endometrial cancer. By the time she was 20, Jenn had already gone through surgical menopause. Having lost the capacity to reproduce, she rejected every notion of her femininity and set out to recreate her life. A surprise initiation into understanding the cyclical nature of the moon turned out to be a massive turning point on her Heroine's Journey. By learning to let her desire guide her through life, and to manifest her desires in harmony with the lunar cycles, Jenn found the feminine heart and power that she had always longed for. Fiery and wise beyond her years, Jenn shares with us how we, too, can bring our desire to the forefront and how to use cyclical rituals to bring them into being.

Today I invited my own business mentor, Andrea J. Lee (she's the one who encouraged me to create this podcast!) to share her Heroine's Journey with us. Living in Vancouver and of Taiwanese descent, Andrea's incredibly joyful and bubbly. I have yet to have a conversation with her when she hasn't giggled! Yet, Andrea didn't always used to be this way. Up until several years ago, she was an incredibly angry woman. Through a lot of deep, inner work and a supportive husband, she used the pain that this rage represented as her path to healing. Seeing this anger as a karmic legacy of not ever being able to be a child, she shares how she has transmuted this pain into self-love, compassion, and loving service. Since anger is something every woman struggles with-- either lashing out or numbing out in reaction to it-- we all can, and need, to learn from Andrea's story. Andrea J. Lee is founder of Thought Partners International, which does business online under the identity 'Wealthy Thought Leader University' -- an internationally-known company that has helped thousands of entrepreneurs upturn the status quo. Alongside the coaching team at Wealthy Thought Leader University, Andrea has taught breakthrough thinking to thousands of entrepreneurial leaders from the start-up phase through 6, 7 and 8 figure incomes. She is also Director of Strategic Planning for the Indrani's Light Foundation -- a global non-profit devoted to eradicating domestic violence, in partnership with the NGO Population Services International.

In 2009, Alexis Neely (whose artist name is Ali Shanti) knew something was wrong. Very wrong. She built multiple million dollar businesses, drove a fancy car, and lived in a posh neighborhood.

I met Rochelle at a Qoya (dance) class that she lead during her visit to Boulder last spring. Her sensual, fierce vibrancy touched me deeply, and I invited her here to share her embodied wisdom with us. Rochelle recounts the tale of her own Heroine's Journey, and what it's been like for her to "go against the grain" in order to follow her heart and create her life's work. She speaks of opening to the power of "Mother energy" (even when one doesn't choose to birth children), the importance of getting into one's body, and a hard lesson she learned that led her to finally trust herself. In closing, Rochelle gives succinct instruction for how to reach out for divine guidance. Join us to celebrate the full spectrum of our womanhood and allow Rochelle's story to inspire you to follow your own precious heart.

Bari is one of my closest girlfriends. It then comes as no surprise that we had a really deep interview, where Bari opened up about stories she had never shared before. She talks a little bit about her work, The Art of Money, but she mostly shares tender, personal stories. We explore the "Father's-Daughter Archetype," a concept I write about in The Book of SHE, and how Bari had to rebel against her father's "way" in order to find her own inner compass. We also explore the grief process, and some recent money riddles that it took her decades to solve. Grab a cup of tea, nibble on some dark chocolate (Bari's favorite), and settle in with us for this rich, sisterly conversation. Bari Tessler Linden, MA, is a Financial Therapist, Mentor Coach and Mama-preneur. Bari’s gentle, body-centered approach weaves together personal, couple, and creative entrepreneurial money teachings into one complete tapestry.
