Perfectionism shows up in your business, affecting much of what you do and don’t do. Most of these sneaky effects of perfectionism come in forms you probably don’t even realize. Let’s jump into this topic and discuss what you can do about pesky perfectionism.

Show Highlights:

• Perfectionism: It’s insidious, and we’ve been indoctrinated!
• Flawlessness is an impossible standard.
• Saturn’s role in showing us where perfectionism stops our progress through doubt and dissatisfaction
• Saturn represents oppression, and the antidote is taking back your power to be of service in the world.
• 13 ways you may be getting stuck in perfectionism:
• Taking too much time to create content
• Trying to stuff too many ideas into your content
• Comparing yourself to others with self-criticism
• Not taking breaks or taking care of your body
• Lacking or avoiding strategy by “throwing spaghetti at the wall”
• Not being real about your numbers or treating your business like a business
• Not delegating or asking for help
• Not experimenting
• Not collaborating
• Scarcity thinking
• Trying to solve ALL of your client’s problems
• Procrastinating
• Staying in “the waiting room” too long
• Take time to reflect on these characteristics of perfectionism and journal how they apply to you and how you can move forward from perfectionism.

I’m back after a summer hiatus, and I have much to share with you about how I spent these two months, mostly focused on writing my book. I’ve had the chance to connect more fully with our farm, harvesting, preserving, and canning food. I even experimented with making pickles, drying herbs, and creating herb blends. Many great guests and conversations are coming up for you on the podcast, and I can’t wait to share them with you!

We are in the middle of huge astrological events! The ancestor fortnight and eclipse tomorrow are monumental in the way they align. I want to talk about their impact and what you can do during this time. Join me to learn more!

Show Highlights:

• Two powerful cosmic phenomena are combining to make this fall a very intense and transformative moment:
• Details about the first eclipse: tomorrow, Sept. 17 at 10:34 pm Eastern
• There are signs of ending and loss, and this is a bad time to make aesthetic decisions. We should focus more on spiritual practices.
• Details about the second eclipse: Oct. 2 at 2:48 pm Eastern
• There are signs of working with your hands, manipulation and making things happen. This is THE single most inauspicious day of the year, which makes it a lay-low day. This is a good time to honor our ancestors. For your business, steer clear of important conversations and doing business; stay behind the scenes and work on systems and processes.
• A recap of important dos and don’ts for now through Sept. 18 and Sept. 17-Oct. 2
• This is a great time for extra self-care, less screen time, eating easily digestible foods, and getting extra rest.
• This is a great time for reflection on “what has been” in honoring the ancestors and performing rituals to call them forward.
• How I use the ritual of offering incense and sweets to a body of water on behalf of my ancestors to reduce karmic friction and disturbances
• Focusing on our personal well-being can benefit our businesses by putting us in the best shape possible to be in a good flow to move forward!

We just have a couple more weeks of my summer hiatus, during which I’m focusing on my writing project and offering you encore editions of some of our favorite episodes. Today’s episode aired about a year ago, and it highlights the value of language and communication in determining the strength and health of our relationships. My guest shares simple mindset shifts in our language that can transform us into more conscious communicators. Join us to learn more!

Alejandra Siroka is a former client of mine and a communications expert who has devoted her life to teaching how language and communication shape our lives and relationships. She is the creator of Language Alchemy, a practice that allows you to transform outdated communication patterns, access your deepest truths, and embody your capacity to show up as a mature, compassionate, and authentic human being. She helps clients learn communication techniques that help them maintain a thriving life. Alejandra combines scientific approaches with holistic methods, and she holds three master’s degrees in the fields of language, communication, and transformative leadership. In today’s conversation, she teaches us how to decondition from the power-over paradigm, how to use language to evolve, and how to connect with people with whom you disagree. She also gives her best tips for showing up authentically in your work and life.

Please see Resources below for sign-up links for the Cosmic Business Lab and the Cosmic Business Mastermind.

Show Highlights:

• What is Language Alchemy?
• The power of transformative language in helping us have authentic communication with collaboration, equality, and compassion instead of domination, power, and competition
• Our historical context impacts our language.
• Respectful micro conversations and connections are the keys in conversations of disagreement.
• Using communication in relationships where power dynamics exist—and why feedback sessions are valuable
• Our relationships are affected by our karmic ties with people (and can help determine with whom we should work)
• A description of the three hubs of communication: belly center, heart center, and head center
• Alejandra’s spiritual practice has helped her tap into compassionate, conscious communication.
• Alejandra’s tips to live and communicate more authentically:
• Separate your agenda from your intentions.
• Use spontaneity and “aliveness” in communication instead of being trite and repetitive.
• What Alejandra’s birth chart says about her vision around communication
• Alejandra’s thoughts about living and working in her purpose
• Alejandra’s experience as an entrepreneur at a very young age
• Using Vedic astrology in business
• Hear Alejandra’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, morning routine, and what she’s reading/recommending.

As we continue with our lineup of summer hiatus shows, we are replaying another impactful episode for you today that originally aired about a year ago. Getting stuck is a feeling that everyone experiences at one time or another in life and business, and I am certainly no stranger to having feelings of stuckness at different points in my journey. I’m discussing getting unstuck, specifically regarding Saturn’s aspect on Mercury in a birth chart. Join me to learn more about why you feel stuck and what you can do about it.

Please see Resources below for sign-up links for the Cosmic Business Lab and the Cosmic Business Mastermind.

Show Highlights:

• Feeling stuck in daily tasks and routines
• Saturn’s relationship with Mercury in a birth chart is an impactful and common combination.
• Saturn aspecting Mercury results in a fear of being visible, questioning our instincts, being stuck in perfectionism, and a fear of being judged.
• “Breaking up the stuckness” by asking yourself specific questions
• Taking the first step in a new direction with intention and accountability

As I’m taking a summer hiatus, stepping back from content creation, and focusing on my writing project, we are airing some of our favorite episodes that deserve to be repeated.

Today’s episode originally aired a little over one year ago and features powerful insight into understanding intuition and working with the energy of Saturn to overcome obstacles.

I’m joined by my friend, mentor, and client, Dr. Robert Svoboda. He is an expert in the knowledge of the Vedic sciences from the traditional Indian teachings, and it’s always an honor to welcome him to the show. He wrote The Greatness of Saturn, a book I highly recommend if you want to understand your obstacles, triggers, and things that keep you from rising to your highest potential. As the planet that holds and unfolds our karma, Saturn is an important planet to understand.

Please see Resources below for sign-up links for the Cosmic Business Lab and the Cosmic Business Mastermind.

Show Highlights:

• Saturn: its importance, qualities, and effect on us as humans
• Saturn’s remoteness, separation, isolation, dissatisfaction, and slowness mean it doesn’t encourage quick gratification.
• Saturn’s rule over old age, sickness, and death
• The positive qualities of Saturn that can be accessed when we understand discipline and impulse control
• Saturn’s role in stripping away our desires and helping us see what really matters
• Saturn’s role in helping us see what we are supposed to do in the world–and what we are not supposed to do
• Saturn’s role in teaching us to be quiet and calm, enduring what needs to be endured (as we endure, we purify our karmic reality and have better and clearer awareness)
• Saturn’s role in helping us navigate obstacles, clear obstacles, and learn to be of service
• Saturn’s role in clarifying the right goals for alignment with our dharma
• How Saturn helps us tune into our intuition to know what do to
• Key takeaways from Dr. Svoboda: “When working with Saturn, we have to be calm and patient, knowing when to rest and how to cultivate our intuition. We have to be willing to change our course and always start slowly when we attempt something new.”

As I’m taking a summer hiatus, stepping back from content creation, and focusing on my writing project, we are airing some of our favorite episodes that deserve to be repeated.

This episode originally aired in May of this year when I was in the middle of a major planetary transition. I’m sharing helpful information about making transitions from different planetary periods and how to best support yourself. Join me!

**Please see the Resources Section below for sign-up links for the Cosmic Business Lab and the Cosmic Business Mastermind.

Show Highlights:

• Understanding Vedic astrology: primary planetary influences (along with secondary, tertiary, etc.), signs, and houses
• Signs that you are in a planetary transition—and what it might feel like
• My personal vulnerabilities during the transition out of my moon period into my Mars period as I face the unknown
• To support yourself during a planetary transition:
• Use a remedy.
• Reflect on the previous period.
• Do something significant to mark the end of one period and the beginning of another.
• Take notes as you move through a new planetary period.
• Remain calm.
• Different planets have different energies that express themselves through you.
• My advice to someone in a planetary transition:
• Don’t make quick changes to your life during this time.
• Lean in slowly and be skillful in making decisions.

The collective is dedicated to spirituality and self-growth through Sanskrit, Yoga Sutra recitation, mantra, philosophy, art, and music.

The sisters spent a large part of their childhood and teenage years in the Himalayan foothills of Rishikesh and have lived for more than ten years in India. Being influenced by Indian philosophy and culture since birth, they have cultivated practices such as meditation, Yogasana, Ayurvedic lifestyle, and Hindustani classical music. Kamala and Jahnavi are currently based between India and Nepal, where they have lived for the past two years. In this episode, we discuss creating a business around your passions, the power of chanting, finding balance with social media, and more!

I’m taking a hiatus this summer, stepping back from content creation to focus on my writing project, so we will be sharing some of our favorite episodes over the next few weeks. These are impactful episodes that you might have missed, or if not, they certainly deserve to be revisited. Today’s episode was featured over two years ago as I recorded a live interview at a retreat in Baja, Mexico, with my yoga teacher, Scott Blossom.

Scott Blossom is a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda. He is skilled at elegantly combining science with the experiential practice of yoga. Scott studied for a long time with the founder of Shadow Yoga, Shandor Remete, and he was also a student of Dr. Robert Svoboda. A yoga teacher since 1997, Scott has been an integral part of my life for more than ten years. In today’s conversation, Scott shares his journey into traditional Chinese medicine, yoga, and Ayurveda; what lights him up about his work; and his advice to others who are figuring out their purpose. We also discuss the decolonial worldview, waking up the inherent truths inside us, and the important role that yoga can play in overall awareness.

Please see Resources below for Scott’s contact info and available resources, along with sign-up links for the Cosmic Business Lab and the Cosmic Business Mastermind.

Show Highlights:

• Scott’s journey of discovering yoga as a helpful study tool as a pre-med student and diving headlong into Eastern medicine, meditation, and spiritual practice
• Combining spirituality and science
• Scott’s work with his patients to help them trust traditional Chinese medicine in the Western world
• Prana–”the nexus between Ayurveda and hatha yoga”
• The benefits of cultivating a relationship with Prana
• The efficiency of your circulatory system can determine your biological age.
• Scott’s work around Ayurveda and the microbiome—and how science is proving now what Ayurveda has always known
• The core of Ayurveda: how the microcosm and macrocosm reflect each other
• Scott’s perspective of living in his purpose
• Scott’s advice to others who are trying to find their purpose
• How Scott survived the pandemic by paying attention to the basics, like sleep and mental health
• Honoring the ancestors of our land, our practice, and our families
• Yoga, traditional Chinese medicine, and Ayurveda can be ways to re-light a fire.
• Allowing “all the voices” to grieve and heal together over racial injustice
• Hear Scott’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something people might now know, what he’s reading right now, and what’s bringing him joy.

I’m thrilled to bring you another conversation with my mentor and friend, Dr. Robert Svoboda. He is the first Westerner to graduate from a college of Ayurveda and be licensed to practice Ayurveda in India. Both during and after his formal Ayurvedic training, he was tutored in Ayurveda, yoga, Jyotish, tantra, and other forms of classical Indian lore by his mentor, the Aghori Vimalananda. He has written over a dozen books and has served as an adjunct faculty member at The Ayurvedic Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Bastyr University in Kenmore, Washington. You can find out more about his work and study online at drsvoboda.com and follow him on Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram.

If you’ve followed me for any length of time, you know that I helped Dr. Svoboda build and run his online business, have taken many of his courses, and have learned much from him. He has joined the podcast many times for conversations about karma, money, Saturn, ancestors, his personal story, and more. Today’s topic is the element of fire and how fire is useful for us as business owners and living individuals as a form of transformation, clarity, working with our minds, digesting ideas, and being able to produce things. We will discuss why working with fire is important in the Vedic sciences and get Dr. Svoboda’s perspective as an Ayurvedic physician. Join us!

Show Highlights:

• Fire has made us humans what we are today and provided many benefits for us.
• Fire, as one of the five elements, is vital and foremost in the Vedic sciences.
• The concept of Buta Agni in Ayurveda and matter being transformed into energy
• Our bodies as a “processing” organism and the Bhuta Agni as a digestive process in life and business
• Understanding the digestion process, physically, mentally, and spiritually
• Clarity and the decision-making process
• Tips from Dr. Svoboda for better mental digestion: “Be selective. Don’t ‘eat’ too much.”
• Making space for tapping into your dharma as your unique responsibilities in life
• Understanding prajna, “the wisdom of your organism,” in relation to alignment with the natural world

We have all gone through a lot of stuff over the past few years, wouldn’t you agree? There is a collective intensity that relates to Saturn’s energy, both personally and professionally. In today’s episode, I’m giving my best tips for navigating Saturn’s affliction more easefully, even in times of intensity. We’ll cover what affliction is, how it manifests, and what you can do about it.

Show Highlights:

• Affliction appears in various ways in a birth chart, most often like a constriction or reevaluation of sorts.
• We are ALL Saturn-afflicted in some way because Saturn is the “Lord of Karma.”
• Saturn affliction may result in disappointment or dissatisfaction.
• Perfectionism can be a result of Saturn affliction, which shows up noticeably in our businesses.
• My ten best tips for remedies for Saturn affliction:
• Make a Saturn list.
• Organize your finances.
• Work with a mantra.
• Clean out and give away stuff in your space.
• Learn the Hanuman Chalisa and recite it regularly.
• Choose something to give up every Saturday for as many weeks as years of your life, plus one.
• Commit to a gratitude practice and work on your mindset.
• Double down on whatever spiritual practice you are doing.
• Organize your business: dedicate an hour weekly to organizing files, writing standards of practice, and reviewing tasks.
• Donate money to charity.
• The key: Don’t be overwhelmed. Choose ONE thing from the list to get started!

I’m thrilled and honored to be joined for this episode by Madison Morrigan. Our conversation covers many topics and uncovers many truths! Join us!

Madison is a five-time international award-winning life and leadership coach, creative consultant, podcast host, and speaker who helps visionaries embody their worth, power, and fullness. Centered on self-belonging, sacred self-responsibility, spiritual freedom, and full expression, Madison coaches humans as they shed layers of old programming that keep them small and see them finally come home to their true selves. In our conversation, we discuss showing up authentically in business and life, including on social media. Madison explains the concept of unmasking, why it is difficult to be a neurodivergent entrepreneur, and how neurodivergence can be turned into a superpower. We discuss the Enneagram as a tool for self-discovery, along with how my subtype shows up and how that specific subtype is universal in a way in America. We wrap up by covering intuition and following your hunches even when it means completely changing your business path.

Show Highlights

• The Enneagram: a tool for self-discovery and self-awakening
• Enneagram 3 is the one most in alignment with stereotypical American culture.
• The Enneagram is a way to identify patterns of motivation and behavior.
• Madison’s winding path to coaching and helping people
• Madison’s religious background, indoctrination, and how she learned a new perspective on spirituality
• Defining the concept of masking–and how neurodivergent people do this to hide their true selves
• Strategies for safety are authentic responses to feeling unsafe.
• The hardest place to be authentic? Social media
• Madison’s writing and social media presence—how she maintains authenticity
• Madison’s advice for those who want to be more authentic
• Intuition: a very important piece of entrepreneurship
• Madison’s chart and info about her transitions, energy, and rebirthing
• Being a clear channel and a spiritual vacuum to do your work and accomplish your purpose
• Neurodivergence as a superpower for Madison as an entrepreneur
• Hear Madison’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, morning routine, and books she is reading/recommending.

Welcome to an exciting episode featuring Nina Rao, an incredible Kirtan leader who tours the world with Krishna Das. We discuss how chanting, particularly to Hanuman, can support you to feel hopeful, even in dark times, along with what is special about India’s wildlife and why it needs our support. Nina educates us on the work and origins of Saving Wild Tigers, the charity that we are supporting in the Cosmic Business Salon as the next round begins on April 22. This free event features powerful conversations on building your values-based, health-centered, spiritually-aligned, and financially successful business so you can bankroll the change you want to see in the world. Sign up today!

Nina Rao learned traditional chants from her grandfather in a village in South India when she was nine years old, and the chants quietly stayed with her until she rediscovered chanting with Krishna Das in New York in 1996. In 1998, she met her guru, Sri Siddhi Ma, in the foothills of the Himalayas and spent time with her regularly for 19 years. Her childhood was spent living in and moving between many countries around the world until settling in New York. Her working life began in the banking industry, and she soon moved into organizing and leading photographic wildlife safaris in Africa and India. Since 1996, Nina has worked as Krishna Das’ business manager and accompanist, as well as a chant leader on her own. Nina tours with Krishna Das and was honored in 2013 to accompany him to the Grammy Awards. Also in 2013, she released her debut album, Antarayaami–Knower of All Hearts, and followed up in 2018 with her second album, Anubhav, which was entirely crowdfunded. Since 1998, she has supported conservationists in preserving the sacred wilderness and forests of India via her charity, Saving Wild Tigers. Nina is a podcast host on the widely heard Be Here Now Network, exploring spirituality, practice, and conservation of wilderness and nature. In addition, she regularly leads Kirtan chanting workshops and virtual and in-person retreats in New York and beyond.

Show Highlights:

• The origins of Nina’s charity, Saving Wild Tigers, and why she left the banking industry for something more
• Nina’s account of how meeting Krishna Das and Sri Siddhi Ma helped her find a love for travel and wildlife
• Understanding the major issues, the scope, and the great need to save wild tigers
• The truth about why we need to preserve wilderness and cultivate a real reverence for nature
• The support that Saving Wild Tigers gives to other organizations
• Chanting, staying grounded, and fundraising for worthy causes are parts of Nina’s life
• Practice gives a foundation and a safe space to open up your mind, become more expansive, be inspired, and create important connections.
• The beauty and significance of Hanuman

Today is the first of two eclipses that you’ve heard me talk about in previous episodes. The second one will be on April 8, and we refer to the time between the two eclipses as “eclipse season.” In this episode, I’ll give you insight into this eclipse season and how to use this time in the best ways for your business and life. Join me!

Just a reminder that I can help you with a burnout-proof strategy for your business and clear marketing that calls in your ideal clients. You’ll be welcomed into a community of like-minded business owners who support and learn from one another. You’ll find all this and more in my year-long Cosmic Business Lab. Join here.

Show Highlights:

• The nature of eclipses and their regular occurrences
• The impact of an eclipse on us:
• They bring things to the surface, like a karmic purge of sorts.
• They bring an increased potential for accidents because of their strong energy.
• Eclipses are not an auspicious time, so it’s good to take care of things behind the scenes in your business.
• Things to do—and not do—on eclipse days
• My advice for you during eclipse season: “Slow down, take care of yourself, and prepare for curveballs. It is okay to continue things that are already underway.”
• What to know about the nodes, Rahu and Ketu, and their innovation
• Specifics about today’s eclipse and the April 8 eclipse
• My takeaways for your business during eclipse season: “Focus on service, support your existing clients, and work internally on systems in your business.”

Is it possible to beat burnout and enthusiastically enjoy your work again? Yes, you CAN rediscover your zone of genius! Today’s episode is a re-air of an interview from about a year ago with Michael Graham, a former client of mine and the owner and founder of Satsang Vanworks. His story is impactful in showing how someone can go from feeling burned out and unenthusiastic about their business to loving their work and feeling fulfilled in their purpose. It all happens through the strategic implementation of systems and mindset shifts. Join us to learn more!

Michael Graham started Satsang Vanworks in Lafayette, Colorado, in 2017. He uses his skills as a high-caliper woodworker honed over more than two decades to bring vibrancy and true craftsmanship to the luxury van building industry. Following the growing demand, Michael has worked to expand his company to create a space for van conversions and CNC milling. In this conversation, Michael discusses what it means to run a business from a sacred place, how not to personalize every YES and every NO, and what it’s like to leave burnout behind and love your business again. Michael also shares what it’s like to live the “van life,” so you’ll enjoy his insights if you’ve ever dreamed of roaming the world in a van.

Show Highlights:

• How Michael got his start and came to the work he does today
• Why Michael wanted to help people get out of the “mortgage trap” in today’s world
• How Michael formed the foundations of his business to align with his values and be an extension of his spirituality
• Why he chose to use the word Satsang (a Sanskrit word meaning “sacred community”) in his business name
• How Michael came to a breaking point and worked through feelings of burnout
• How Michael learned to not personalize every YES and every NO
• How implementing systems and trusting the process can bring fresh confidence to a business owner
• How Michael learned to step into his Saturn energy and his experience with Mars to find more ease in his work
• How he gained credibility through finding freedom to do his work and trusting himself as a unique creator in the van building industry
• Common misconceptions about van life
• How working with Paula helped Michael better understand himself and his business, especially in gaining insights through his birth chart
• Hear Michael’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, morning routine, and what he’s reading right now.

If you listened to Episode 137, you heard the re-air of my appearance on the Cubicle to CEO podcast with Ellen Yin. Today’s episode is a behind-the-scenes look at how that appearance came to be, how I pitched myself, and how I got a YES within 24 hours. You’ll hear a lot from me this year about how podcasting and pitching podcasts can be a marketing tool and a very effective business growth strategy. Listen up and take good notes because I’m dropping lots of helpful gems in this episode!

Show Highlights:

• Why pitching podcasts grows your audience and draws more people into your ecosystem than social media platforms
• Why a pitch to any podcast begins with detailed research to figure out who the audience is and how you can help them
• The steps to the methodology of my pitch:
• Lead your pitch with a compliment or something you can do for the podcast host.
• Offer a big idea about how you can help their audience.
• Share who you are, your point of view, and why their podcast is of interest to you.
• Be sure to include human elements in your “story.”
• Share your credentials and explain why you are the right person for their podcast. (Link your bio or website.)
• Let the podcaster know how you will promote the episode to your audience.
• Hear my actual pitch to Ellen Yin for examples of how I implemented these steps!
• The results of my pitch: an acceptance within one day, along with increased sales and new people joining my circle after the episode aired
• My challenge to you: Locate five aligned podcasts for which you think you would be a great guest and write that pitch that gets you a YES!

• Why low-ticket offers can be extremely valuable in growing the scope and impact of your business and drawing people into your ecosystem
• Specific components of Paula’s 2023 offers that are tied to giving back over $37,000, like the annual Astrology Guidebook; course bundles (to raise money for Maui relief); access to programs, live events, and virtual summits; and Black Friday workshop campaign
• Why efforts that aren’t 100% “giveback” can still make a huge difference (Every small, simple thing can help!)
• What it means to build a “cosmic business” that aligns with your values and is focused on giving back

As I am in India right now, I’ve decided to pull back the curtain on a recent coaching session with my coach, Liz Kimball, to give a raw and deep behind-the-scenes look at my business. This was last month during the Ancestor Fortnight when I was at home with my family after my dad had major surgery. There was a LOT going on for me, so you are getting an unprocessed, unfiltered look at my vulnerabilities. Why am I doing this? I want to be completely transparent about where I am and how this current process looks for me. I wouldn’t be where I am without the coaching programs and support I have invested in, and I want to help you in the same ways that my coaches help me. Join us for this unusual episode!

Warning: There is swearing in this episode, and we are not bleeping it out. Use your discernment if young ears are nearby.

Show Highlights:

• How a social media hiatus can preserve creative work and mental wholeness
• Why it’s helpful for me to separate my ambition from a hardline goal–and take a “big picture” view
• How I am unlocking my next layer of impact and intuition
• How my intuitive experience is playing out in the book-writing process
• Why Liz says I need to apply the trust, audacity, and courage in the business part of my life to my creative projects
• How I am building capacity within my business and myself for the next chapter
• How my relationship with my dad is changing in profound ways during this visit
• How I am unhooking karma in my family relationships while I still fear the fierce part of me
• Three pieces we have to “get divorced from” to do our big, creative work: intuition, curiosity, and fierce courage
• How I am setting intention in the messy process of writing my book
• How the creative process works with my wild self and my fierce inner child
• How I am learning to trust the process in my fierceness

Today’s show explores the Black Goddesses, Goddess energy, what it all means, and how this power can be used for healing. Join us to learn more about this fascinating subject!

Dr. Giavanni Washington is the creator of the Black Goddess Within Oracle Deck. Her oracle deck is the only one featuring photos of black women embodying the Goddesses from Africa. Dr. Giavanni comes from a long line of educators, moonshine makers, and medicine women who took away pain even when rupture left them with only what was in the pantry.

As an intuitive healer with a special knack for recognizing the best version of you, she fervently believes you can reach the next level, and she stands at the threshold, gently supporting your migration from one plane to the next.

Show Highlights:

• Dr. Giavanni’s journey to her work with the Black Goddesses
• How Giavanni’s religious background with Catholic, Baptist, and Methodist affiliations affected her childhood years
• Why the Black Goddesses have a lot of potential for healing
• How and why she created the Black Goddess Within Oracle Deck with images of real black women with diversity
• How people can recover their ancestral storylines that have been destroyed in the colonial process
• Why there are other ways of connecting with ancestral storylines outside the bounds of DNA
• How people repeat ancestral patterns and get stuck in them
• How Giavanni’s work helps people uncover their blood, spirit, milk, and martyr lines of lineage
• Why Giavanni refers to her work as “ancestral restoration” (and shares the personal example of her triplet younger brothers)
• How decolonization and anti-racism compare and contrast with each other
• Why decolonization can be described as “a return to the old ways, the mysteries, beginner’s mind, and right relationship with Mother Earth”
• How Giavanni’s chart embodies mission, mystery, and transformation
• How Giavanni is collaborating with a publisher to produce a new oracle deck of 44 cards with at least 30 Goddesses (Update: This newest product is now available for pre-order at www.drgiavanniwashington.com. Exclusive bonuses are available through December 2023!)
• Giavanni’s new project around reparations and how you can help
• What it means to Giavanni to live in her purpose
• Hear Giavanni’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on Earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, her current favorite Black Goddess, something people might not know, what she’s reading right now, and what brings her joy.

You are in for a treat in today’s episode! I’m sharing a clip from a teaching given by my dear friend and former podcast guest, Rachael Ferrera. She teaches about healing and the power of letting go of competition and becoming more of ourselves and our businesses through tapping into self-love, trust, and intuition. This clip is from a class that she delivered in one of my group programs, and I wanted to share it here because Rachael is amazing and inspiring.

Last year, she had an episode of sepsis that almost took her life. As her friends and support, many of us have been rooting her on and trying to help her as she heals. A GoFundMe has been a lifeline to help with her medical bills and recovery, but it’s still about $5000 short of her goal. If you get something out of this episode and want to help Rachael, find the GoFundMe link in our Resources section and please support Rachael. She’s someone who wears many hats with her work as an actor, singer, transformational speaker, spoken word poet, and Reiki Master Practitioner.

Join us to hear more from Rachael!

Show Highlights:

• Learn breathwork with Rachael
• How to hold space for your intentions and open yourself up to energies
• How Rachael came to her healing work as a theater student at NYU
• Why people need the gifts you offer them through your work
• How Rachael’s business offerings have shifted and been reshaped as she experienced growth
• How to allow your business to unfold as you reach your highest potential
• Why blocks happen when we need to uplevel self-love, intuition, and trust
• A three-step process to increase your level of self-love and activate belief in yourself:
• Identify the negative stories
• Identify three truths about you and your business–and write them down!
• Integrate Steps 1 & 2 by recognizing each negative story and replacing it with one of your truths.
• Rachael leads us in an exercise to allow healing energy to flow in and wash over us

How much time do you have left? Are you living your life to the fullest each day? These are concepts that can bring discomfort when we ponder the harsh reality of our lives. Wouldn’t it be more inspiring to view our lives and mortality in an uplifting way? Don’t we all want to live each day “astonishingly alive”? Join us to learn more!

Jodi Wellman is a speaker, author, and facilitator who helps people live lives worth living. She specifically helps her clients live squander-free lives while they're lucky enough to still be above ground. She named her business 4000 Mondays because the name shines a light on the finite number of weeks we have to live like we mean it. Jodi holds a master's of applied positive psychology from the University of Pennsylvania where she's also an assistant instructor. As a certified coach with 25 years of corporate leadership experience, she helps executives, teams, and high performers work well and live even better. Jodi's TEDx talk, How Death Can Bring You Back to Life, has had over 1.3 million views, making it the 14th most-watched TEDx talk released in 2022 (out of 15,900). In this episode, we discuss how connecting with your death can actually help you live a life that is more astonishingly alive, and why you should be counting your Mondays, plus practical tips for cultivating your curiosity and sense that you are not living on the sidelines. Jodi also allows us to take a look behind the scenes of her creativity-focused business.

Show Highlights:

• How 4000 Mondays began as an uplifting way to look at death
• Why Jodi counts down her Mondays as the first step in learning not to take precious life for granted
• Why Jodi lives with tiny, positive, visual reminders to live life to the fullest because time is ticking
• What it means to live a “squander-free life” and not just go through the motions
• How to get real about life’s simple pleasures
• How the pandemic was a gift in disguise to help us prioritize our lives
• How creativity has infused Jodi’s business

• The role of enthusiasm in living “astonishingly alive”

Today’s episode is all about the wisdom of the Enneagram, which is a system of transformation that classifies human personality into nine basic types. I’ve been fascinated, maybe even low-key obsessed, with this self-evaluation tool for about a decade. Even though it isn’t central to the work I do with clients, I use it to support myself in my self-observation practice.

My guest is the ideal person to help us understand this interpersonal tool that she uses in her work. Join us to learn more!

Holly Krepps is a former client of mine and the founder of Circle Yoga Shala. She is an internationally accredited yoga therapist and a facilitator of the West Wisdom Enneagram. She is an alumnus of Father Richard Rohr’s three-year Living School, a non-dual-based wisdom school in conjunction with his Center for Contemplation and Action in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Holly has facilitated Enneagram groups seeking an authentic relationship with self and others for the past 16 years. In her own words, “I lead a full and content life resulting from fearless, sensitive living and radical acceptance of what is. If a way of ‘being’ has culminated or been reinforced by my engagement with Yoga, the Enneagram, and other perennial teachings, it is that of surrender. Surrender to the Divine and to what is happening in each moment and maintaining a felt connection to Self is the opposite of getting lost in mechanical action as the basis for joy and peace in the midst of this beautiful play of MA(ya).” Holly previously joined the show for Episode 55, Saying Yes to Reality.

Show Highlights:

• Holly’s explanation of the Enneagram as “much more than a personality tool”
• Why the Enneagram is a mysterious wisdom and ancient teaching about how the cosmos works
• How figuring out Holly’s Enneagram number has helped her understand her stress reactions and her “survival operating system”
• Why all of us can be multi-dimensional with more than one number on the Enneagram because of the natural movement in our lives
• How self-observation helps us “see through” our fixations and reclaim our power around them
• How knowing her Enneagram number has helped Holly with business success
• What Holly recommends for those just starting with the wisdom of the Enneagram
• An overview of Holly’s course, programs, and offerings

Are you using ChatGPT in your business? I’ve been connecting with many of you on Instagram about this topic, and it seems that many business owners are steering away from using ChatGPT because it’s perceived to be opposed to the values of creating connection and supporting overall humanity.

I think this perception is based on a misunderstanding of how to actually use this tool. Let’s do some myth-busting today and discuss specific ways you can use ChatGPT to boost your content, save your valuable time, and supercharge your business. Join us!

Show Highlights:

• The reality: AI technology is here to stay; learn to use it wisely and don’t get left behind!
• A few of my favorite AI tools and how I use them: otter.ai, meme.ai, and ChatGPT
• 5 ways to use ChatGPT without compromising your values or dehumanizing your business:
• To reformat content you have used elsewhere
• To research topics you want to learn more about
• To analyze data, create tables, and distill information
• To create the most SEO-ready and searchable titles for podcasts, blogs, subjects, etc.
• To create code for you within specific parameters
• Considerations about ChatGPT’s free version vs. the paid version
• Why you have to be good at creating prompts to maximize ChatGPT capabilities (Check out Episode 100: Using ChatGPT for Your Cosmic Business with Abhinav Chetan for more.)

Marketing. As a business owner, you either love it or hate it. If you don’t enjoy it, you have to find ways to make it work for your business, so why not learn from experts? You can simplify your marketing strategy by breaking it down to authentic storytelling. My guest today is, like me, a marketing nerd who loves all things marketing, and she’s sharing practical tips to help anyone improve their marketing strategy. Join us to learn more!

Rachel Murphy is a fractional marketing manager who works with holistic health practitioners to grow their personal brand, crush their digital marketing strategy, and create content that feels good and works. She received her business degree in marketing before kicking off her career at a digital marketing company working with Fortune 500 retailers. She left corporate America to start an Ayurvedic brand before realizing she was more marketer than practitioner and pivoted to serve that niche in a new business that she calls Rooted Strategy.

In this episode, we discuss what marketing is really about. We discuss ethical marketing practices, what a hook is, and how to uplevel your content. We also got Rachel’s hot take on AI, and you don’t want to miss how she’s using it in her business. We talk about the power of niching and what you should be doing at the beginning and later on as your business grows.

Show Highlights:

• How Rachel chose holistic practitioners as her niche
• Why she finds the world of marketing so fascinating
• How marketing is all about storytelling
• Rachel’s tips for inserting more story into your marketing
• How to do ethical marketing and use hooks strategically
• Why people get stuck in their marketing
• Rachel’s hot take on using AI in marketing
• What Rachel’s birth chart says about her entrepreneurial spirit
• How Rachel’s marketing philosophy goes against the grain
• Hear Rachel’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, morning routine, and what she’s reading right now.
• Rachel’s takeaways: “Don’t be afraid to simplify your marketing. Figure out the three things you can do each week to move the needle and start with those.”

You may wonder why I am dedicating a show to a preview of October’s astrology when there are still several days left in September. There are a lot of factors that could result in October being a rocky month because there is SO much going on. Last year at this time when I looked ahead to 2023, I began planning my entire business strategy around this month. I want to equip you so you can move things around, plan your month, and be prepared. Join me to learn more!

Show Highlights:

• Implications of the Ancestor Fortnight, September 29-October 14 (Check out Episode 120 with Dr. Robert Svoboda to learn more.):
• It’s not a good time to sell
• It can be a drag on our energy.
• Our ancestors are more likely to impact us and be nearer than usual.
• Our time is better spent in self-care rather than selling, launching, etc.
• What to do as the Ancestor Fortnight ends on October 14
• How a big shift is coming on October 30–one that only happens every 18 months
• How I plan to spend the month of October

What is the role of our ancestors in our lives and work? We are exploring this topic today ahead of the Ancestor Fortnight that starts later this month. Honoring our ancestors is an important remedy to put us in flow with divine forces, and this is crucial for spirit-led entrepreneurs. Join us to learn more in today’s episode!

I’m excited to be joined by my friend, mentor, and client, Dr. Robert Svoboda for this discussion. He has joined us for three other episodes, so check out our Resources section for more details on those. We are discussing the importance of honoring our ancestors for creating success and harmony in our lives. Dr. Svoboda explains how to do this easily on your own, why the Ancestor Fortnight is a great time to focus on the ancestors, and what not to do during this time. He explains how he works with his troubled ancestors, along with teaching us about the Indian calendar and its logic.

Show Highlights:

• Why having a relationship with your ancestors is important in understanding where you come from
• How ancestors influence the patterns in their descendants in both positive and negative ways
• How we can tell the difference between ancestor disturbance and our karma–and how ancestor work can relieve confusion
• How knowing our lineage helps us discover things about ourselves and gives us insights and perspectives
• What Dr. Svoboda has learned about his troubled ancestors and how Paula keeps in touch with her Cherokee heritage
• What our responsibility is in ancestor worship
• Why the Ancestor Fortnight is important
• What it means (practically) to worship your ancestors and how it brings harmony into your family line
• How the Indian calendar factors into ancestor worship
• What to do (and not to do) during the Ancestor Fortnight
• How to start honoring your ancestors today with simple steps

As I am away for a couple of weeks, I wanted to re-air a couple of specific podcast episodes. I’ve chosen thoughtfully those that I think are the most helpful for entrepreneurs who think about their businesses from a spiritual perspective and are using spiritual practices to help support them. Today’s episode originally aired in October 2021, and it’s an interview with my Vedic chanting teacher. Since then, I’ve taken more of her chanting courses, which I highly recommend. Join us!

Shantala Sriramaiah studied Sanskrit chanting and Indian scriptures from an early age as part of her family tradition and school education in Bangalore, India. After being mentored by several Vedic scholars, she teaches a growing global community of students through her online platform. Our discussion covers her journey from being an engineer to starting her spiritual business, along with her family lineage as a chanter. We’ll get her perspective on being a spiritual person offering services in the Vedic traditions, and why she feels good about charging for her services. She shares how chanting supports you and how you can use it to summon the courage to get to the next level in your business. I hope you enjoy this impactful interview.

Show Highlights:

• Shantala’s journey from growing up in a chanting household to diverse paths that have merged to point her to her purpose
• How Shantala was inspired by her mother, a chanting teacher and community leader
• How Shantala began teaching Veda Studies after moving to Belgium and becoming a mother
• Why Shantala felt clear in her purpose in teaching, even though her start was rocky and uncertain
• What it’s like to build a business around sacred things
• How Shantala’s community is benefitting from the value exchange she offers through Veda Studies
• The differences between Vedic chanting and Kirtan chanting as far as the technicality of the notes used
• Why Vedic chanting requires 100% concentration in following the rigors of the text, grammar, syllables, etc., even though they produce mental clarity and a calming effect
• How Shantala met and partnered with her teachers
• Why it’s important to find and live in your purpose
• How Shantala’s foundational practices ground her no matter what obstacles come her way
• Hear Shantala’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding practices, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, inspiring people, something people don’t know about her, what she’s reading right now, and what brings her joy in life.

I’m taking on a fun topic today that I’ve been recently posting about on my Instagram. Did you know that each planet has a particular color associated with it? It is fascinating to learn about power colors and the planets, so let’s discuss how we can work with the planets and deepen our relationship with these energies. Want to know more about YOUR power colors? Join the conversation!

Show Highlights:

• How the planets activate our karmas and influence us according to our birth chart–and colors can increase the impact!
• Two schools of thought about invoking a planet’s energy with its color: 1) Avoid wearing colors of planets that are negatively impacting your chart, and 2) Wear the color of the planet of the day to build your relationship with that planet
• How the planets correlate to each day of the week, a color, and specific energies:
• Monday: Moon Day, white–imagination, emotions, and vitality
• Tuesday: Mars Day, red–action, passion, and forward movement
• Wednesday: Mercury Day, green–communication and commerce
• Thursday: Jupiter Day, yellow–wisdom, grace, and expansion
• Friday: Venus Day, white, pink, or patterns–creativity, aesthetics, love, and social networks
• Saturday: Saturn Day, blue and black–delays, disappointments, discipline, responsibility
• Sunday: Sun Day, red and orange–confidence and presence
• The easiest way to work with your power colors each day
• How a Vedic astrologer can help in your personal life and business to work with your power colors

Change is part of life, so why do we resist change so adamantly? Wouldn’t it serve us better to learn to handle life’s changes in ways that push us toward greater growth in the goals that matter the most? Today’s episode is about navigating change skillfully using tools from the Vedic sciences, and I think you will learn a lot from my guest. Join us!

Kate Smith Jamison is an Ayurvedic practitioner, yoga teacher, and change warrior. In this episode, you’ll hear what she did to support her leap from a 14-year corporate career at Goldman Sachs in London to moving back to her hometown of Belfast, Northern Ireland, as a single mom and entrepreneur. As she thrives in this role today, she helps others navigate similar changes. You don’t want to miss her story of the incredible synchronicities that happened after she made that life-changing leap. Kate is also a client, so she shares how her coaching business has blossomed after announcing her one-on-one offer as a result of our collaboration, along with the power of understanding her personal astrological conditions and the placement of Saturn. You’ll hear her account of how our work together has supported her on her journey.

Show Highlights:

• Kate’s journey to entrepreneurship and slow awakening to Ayurveda
• How yoga and her intuition led her to a more grounded place of self-knowledge and empowerment
• Kate’s advice about using simple practices when you are faced with a big change
• The planetary angle of Kate’s decision to leave London and transform her life
• How amazing synchronicities occurred around her big change, even in how she met (again) and married her husband
• How the magic happens when the universe supports you and moves you toward your purpose
• How Vedic astrology has assisted Kate in her business
• How Kate has implemented specific strategies to improve connections and relationships around her business
• Why collaboration is an important part of our business and personal journeys
• How Kate’s business thrived when she worked in her “zone of genius” with Paula’s support
• How Kate is working with people in her program today
• Hear Kate’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, morning routine, and what she’s reading right now.

Do you want to know more about accessing your intuition? This episode is about using your intuition as a powerful insight to know what to do next and how to work with the energy of Saturn to overcome obstacles. Join us to learn more!

I’m joined by my friend, mentor, and client, Dr. Robert Svoboda. He is an expert in his knowledge of the Vedic sciences from the traditional Indian teachings, and it is an honor to have him on today’s show to teach us about working with Saturn. He wrote The Greatness of Saturn, a book I highly recommend if you want to understand your obstacles, triggers, and things that keep you from rising to your highest potential. As the planet that holds and unfolds our karma, Saturn is an important planet to understand.

Show Highlights:

• Why Saturn is the planet we should pay attention to more than any other
• The qualities of Saturn and its effect on us
• How Saturn does not encourage quick gratification because of its remoteness, separation, isolation, dissatisfaction, and slowness
• How Saturn rules old age, sickness, and death
• How Saturn has positive qualities that can be accessed when we understand discipline and impulse control
• Why Saturn brings a satisfaction that comes gradually—and not a quick and temporary gratification
• How Saturn strips away our desires and helps us see what really matters
• How Saturn helps us see what we are supposed to do in the world–and what we are not supposed to do
• How Saturn teaches us to be quiet and calm, enduring what needs to be endured (as we endure, we purify our karmic reality and have better and clearer awareness)
• How Saturn helps us navigate obstacles, clear space, and learn to be of service
• How Saturn helps us clarify the right goals for alignment with our dharma
• How we can tune into our intuition to know what to do, with Saturn’s help

Key takeaways: “When working with Saturn, we have to be calm and patient, knowing when to rest and how to cultivate our intuition. We have to be willing to change our course and always start slowly when we attempt something new.”

Today’s episode is a rich and beautiful conversation with my guest, Meghan Thomas, about entrepreneurship, pivoting, intuition, and more. Join us to hear insights and wisdom from Meghan!

Meghan Thomas is a podcast host and serial entrepreneur who believes in following her intuition, which has allowed her to pivot her business over the years. Her latest intuitive nudges led her to create the Emotional Expedition podcast, which was born out of the many challenges she has experienced in her life. When she understood that emotions and trauma get stuck in the body and show up in various forms of disease, she realized that stuck emotions require work to move them through the body. The process begins with an awareness of what we are feeling in the first place and doing the work from there. Meghan opens up as she shares the ups and downs in her story that have brought her where she is today.

Show Highlights:

• How Meghan’s entrepreneurship began by taking early leadership roles in school and starting her wedding photography business after college
• How a medical misdiagnosis of Crohn’s disease and surgery left her debilitated and in/out of hospitals for about a year
• How her medical challenges gave her a greater drive, a sense of purpose, and an understanding that life cannot be wasted
• How Meghan made two major pivots around her expanding, but niching down, business through her intuition and desire for alignment
• What Meghan’s birth chart shows about her sense of self, emotions, work, and energy
• How Meghan “burned the boats” of her wedding photography business to follow her intuition into teaching yoga, leading women’s retreats, and coaching women
• How a social media detox made things quieter and her intuition louder
• Why Meghan started her podcast and course, Emotional Expedition
• How she realized she had unprocessed trauma and emotions that she needed to move
• How Meghan learned to manage her relationship with fear and perfectionism
• How she learned to have healthy boundaries in business and her personal life
• Why it is important to be vulnerable and share your story
• Hear Meghan’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, morning routine, and what books she’s reading/recommending.

Are you a workaholic—or a recovering workaholic, like me? Join me as we dive into a deeply personal conversation about escaping the clutches of workaholism and prioritizing health and happiness in our businesses. For years, I believed workaholism was an inescapable part of who I was, but as I explored my lineage and culture, I discovered its roots and made a conscious choice to break free of this trap. I’ve tried a few new strategies, and I’m happy to share with you what works, what doesn’t, and my plan for the next six months.

Let’s uncover insights, strategies, and practices to shift the narrative in YOUR business to honor your health and align with your deepest values. As we seek to build cosmic businesses that nourish our souls, let's revolutionize how we work, redefine success, and learn to live our best lives. Join me for this episode!

Show Highlights:

• Why I’m committed to a new paradigm of doing business where health is prioritized over profit
• How I am deconditioning from a strong lineage and long history of workaholism
• Why I had to quit everything and take a break before rebuilding and experimenting
• How capitalistic culture conditions us all to overwork and NOT put our health first
• My practices for reducing workaholism: morning movement, gratitude, chanting/breath work, reducing work availability, and canceling “extra” things
• Why I feel that it is a service to my clients to honor my boundaries and create space to serve them at my highest capacity
• How you can strategically cut back where you have overcommitted to save your time and energy
• Why I’m committed to a “three-item list” each day—and how I celebrate its completion
• How my mentality evolves as I make adjustments to my schedule and priorities as the universe leads me to a better way
• How we can “burnout proof” our businesses through strategic systems, clarity of marketing, creating irresistible offers, and learning to love sales
• What I’m focusing on for the next six months to prioritize my health, create spaciousness, and add more JOY activities to my life
• How new AI technology can help us reduce overwork by reformatting and repurposing content
• My question for you: What is ONE thing you can do right now to put your health at the center of your business?

We all must deal with our emotions and experiences, but some people do it better than others. Today’s guest knows what it’s like to struggle, scramble, and “hide in plain sight.” Fortunately, she emerged from the darkness through deep healing and transformation, and she’s devoted to helping others find their way out by being brave and stepping outside the shadow of their own fear. Join us to learn more!

My guest is Iona Holloway, the founder of Soul Breathwork and the best-selling author of Ghost: Why Perfect Women Shrink. Iona’s work is rooted in her experiences as a highly functioning, invisibly struggling woman and her unconventional recovery from a 20-year battle with an eating disorder and depression. Something she learned on the long road home is: “It’s never too late to remember who you are.” Iona is “tough as old boots but soft like a marshmallow.” Her ZeroFluff breathwork app, intensives, and psychedelic live experiences help you do three things: clear the muck, turn the stone in your chest back into a beating heart, and burn bright, not out, in your life and work. In today’s conversation, we discuss Iona’s first experience with breathwork as a professional athlete and how breathwork can be used to clear up past traumas and learn timeline jumping. Iona also shares her insights into experimentation and content creation and her thoughts about the writing process and self-publishing a book.

Show Highlights:

• How Iona’s strong sense of independence and entrepreneurship have carried from childhood into her adult years
• Why Iona’s 20s were spent as an athlete and creative suffering from a lot of internal pain
• How Iona wrote a book and built a business around her own healing journey
• What Iona’s birth chart says about her
• How Iona came to realize that she is a “deep well” of appreciation for her soul and her precious life
• Why Iona has centered her brand around breathwork and wisdom
• The importance of “finding a way to stay” through breathwork
• The basics of timeline jumping–and how Iona practices this technique
• Why borrowing inspiration, bravery, and insight from yourself is meaningful
• How words have power and magic in them
• A fresh look from Iona at experimentation, failure, bravery, and success
• Why the online space is a whole different dimension of reality with its own energy
• How our visibility depends on how safe we feel in being seen in different ways
• How someone can get started with breathwork today
• Hear Iona’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, morning routine, and recommended books
• How Iona navigated the self-publishing process for her book

In many ways, all of life is a big experiment. We are constantly having to shift and change, even when we think we have things figured out, and this is true in life AND in business. In my experience, the best entrepreneurs are those most fluid in their ability to experiment. Let’s dive deeper into this topic!

Show Highlights:

• Why risk is the biggest piece of experimentation
• How vision (and support for that vision) will make or break your business
• Why you have to be willing to fail—and realize that “failure is learning”
• Why innovation (via experimentation) is a core tenet of the next two years of Saturn in Aquarius
• Why experimentation is the entrepreneur’s playground, laboratory, and field of endeavor
• Why experimentation is the leading edge of human imagination based on the information we gather
• How to evaluate your experimentation for success before moving to the next step
• “Will you let yourself experiment and evolve your business?”

You’re in for a treat in today’s show. I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Ramkumar Kutty, one of the visionaries behind Vaidyagrama, an Ayurveda Healing Village. I’ve spent a lot of time there in rural India over the last ten years, and I’ve seen how this special place has evolved with a focus on creating an eco-village.

His philosophy embodies the values of building a values-based cosmic business, which is what this podcast is all about. He shares insights about moving from ideation to skilled action and why people often get stuck in the wisdom-collection phase. Join us to learn more!

Show Highlights:

• How Vaidyagrama has changed and grown over the last few years to align with traditional principles of sustainable living, community, and land management
• Why Vaidyagrama patients are taught to prepare herbal concoctions instead of taking them in pill/capsule form
• How Dr. Ramkumar holds onto a shared vision of “we” and trusts the growth process
• Why perfection is an obstacle to overcome on the journey to your vision
• Why failures are necessary and beneficial to help us learn from our mistakes
• How Dr. Ramkumar is intentional in bringing back the spiritual piece of Ayurveda in the healing journey
• How collaboration happens holistically at Vaidyagrama
• Hear Dr. Ramkumar’s answers to rapid-fire questions about impactful advice, morning practices, and some of his favorite books to recommend.

If you are curious about MY story of coming into entrepreneurship, you will love hearing today’s episode about my business background. Many people have fascinating stories about how they became entrepreneurs, but most of us don’t consciously choose this way of being in the world. Entrepreneurship is often a by-product of our creativity, ingenuity, and desire for freedom. Join me for a closer look!

Show Highlights:

• Back to the beginning of my entrepreneurial spark, courtesy of my parents
• How my college years included studies in anthropology and photojournalism and a few different jobs
• How my plans to join the Peace Corps led me to study French in France–but meeting and marrying a Frenchman landed us in NYC instead
• How a period of experimentation saw me working at NPR, doing freelance journalism, and founding a news website and a non-profit organization
• Why I find great value in the various experiences and ups and downs of working for myself
• Why the time following my divorce in 2011 made me want to go to India and never return to the US
• How a spiritual pull led me to a month-long stay in India, where I met my main teachers
• How I quit my job in 2014 and took the leap to travel the world for four years
• How a conversation with my teacher, Dr. Robert Svoboda, led me to what I love: teaching people about business and marketing
• How my own business went through transitions from network marketing to working at a women’s shelter to doing Vedic astrology readings
• How the pandemic changed everything for me, along with a closer look at my birth chart and a main signature of helping people make money
• How I tweaked my offerings to help people step into their purpose as I stepped into mine
• Why I view entrepreneurship as a valuable and multi-faceted journey that I wouldn’t trade for anything

Welcome to the first episode of The Cosmic Business Podcast! Paula is excited to share all about the new concept for the show! While astrology will be a huge focus here, the podcast pivot will help me reach the goal to help a million spirit-led entrepreneurs build a cosmic business around their genius so that they can earn wildly well and bankroll the change they want to see in the world.

What is a cosmic business? A cosmic business is a new paradigm business that believes in collaboration over competition, building a business around your unique genius, aligning to the planet and your intuition, and leading with your values. It also involves putting your health and the health of the planet first, treating people fairly, and building giving into your business model. If this sounds fabulous to you, you’re in the right place!

Show Highlights:

• The podcast will take you behind the scenes of Paula’s thriving, multi-six-figure business.
• We will focus on strategy and on closing more sales.
• The new format will focus on astrological insights to optimize your business and life.
• Paula will also feature conversations with spirit-led business owners, creatives, and changemakers to inspire you.
• Paula believes that those of us who maintain a spiritual practice and seek to deeply align with our purpose, are the ones who can genuinely make a change in the world.
• Paula will give you examples so you can feel inspired and will also be sharing more of her personal business knowledge around making more sales, marketing authentically, and building community.
• The content will be very much for spirit-led business owners who are looking to create a new paradigm of value-based business.

Can running a uniquely specific business be a spiritual practice? You’ll find out in today’s episode. Join me for an inside look at luxury van building with today’s guest!

Michael Graham is a former client of mine who is the owner and founder of Satsang Vanworks in Lafayette, Colorado. He has used his skills as a high-caliber woodworker for over two decades to bring vibrancy and true craftsmanship to the luxury van building industry. Following the growing demand, Michael has worked to expand his company, creating a space for conversions and C & C milling alike. In this conversation, we talk about running a business from a sacred place, learning not to personalize every NO and every YES, and what it’s like to move from a place of burnout to enjoying your business again. Michael also shares what it’s like to live “van life,” so you’ll enjoy his insights if you’ve ever dreamed of roaming the world in a van.

Show Highlights:

• How Michael came to the work he does today
• Why Michael wanted to help people get out of the “mortgage trap” in today’s world
• How Michael formed the foundations of his business to align with his values and be an extension of his well-being and peace
• The origin of “Satsang” (which means “sacred community” in Sanskrit) as Michael’s business name and the orientation of his shop
• How Michael came to a breaking point and worked through feelings of burnout
• How to learn not to personalize every NO and YES that comes with our business
• How implementing systems and trusting the process bring fresh confidence to a business owner
• How Michael learned to step into his Saturn energy and his experience with Mars to find more ease in his work
• How he gained credibility through finding the freedom to do his work and trust himself as a unique creator in the van building industry
• Common misconceptions about van life

In addition to writing the words that get landing pages converted at 60% or higher and crafting personality-filled emails, Marisa Corcoran is the creator of the wildly popular Copy Chat Summit and helps coaches and creatives craft their uncopyable message inside her program, The Copy Confidence Society. Her framework has been featured in Business Insider, Thrive Global, and Voyage Atlanta.

In this conversation, Marisa explains why copy is the center of your business, her journey from actor to copywriter, and how her program will help you succeed in business. She is the kind of entrepreneur whom I admire because she builds giving back into her business model, seeing her business as a useful channel for helping people.

• How she moved from Plan A to Plan B–and found everything she wanted

The word “home” means many different things that bring a wide range of feelings, depending on your experience. You may see that home is the keyword for today’s episode and the conversation with my lovely guest. Join us for this conversation that is full of light and warmth.

Genevieve Walker is a violinist and composer who grew up in a musical household in which the sound of tuning a violin became synonymous with home. She lived in the classical music world for many years before traveling the world as a young adult. She was influenced by different cultures and approaches to music and began weaving these influences into her playing. Having toured internationally as a violinist, Genevieve has seen the world through the perspective of the stage. Perhaps she is most known for her long-time accompaniment for Krishna Das, with whom she has recorded and performed extensively. Genevieve composed her first solo album, Walking Home, while pregnant with her first son. Two kids and some life later, she has completed her second solo album, Home Songs. This album is a shift in her orientation, drawing upon the sounds and melodies of everyday life to express a collective ode to the longing and cultivation of home. Home Songs is a musical exploration of finding home and the people we love. In addition to being a violinist, Genevieve is a certified yoga teacher and a licensed psychotherapist. She views her approach to these disciplines as a way to unwind deeper into ourselves and untie the home that exists within us all. In this conversation, we talk about what it is like to have a long-term relationship with an instrument and her journey to playing the violin. She discusses the idea of home and what it means to her, along with how motherhood has influenced her music, and she shares how she came to meet Krishna Das and ended up playing music with him.

Show Highlights:

• Why Genevieve was inspired as a young child to start to play the violin
• Why the concept of “home” has been a preoccupation for Genevieve in her spiritual journey
• How Genevieve’s chart aligns perfectly with her path and her craving for home
• How she has learned to balance creativity and motherhood
• How she met and began playing with Krishna Das
• How playing kirtan and classical differ for Genevieve
• Genevieve’s new project: writing melodies for the 21 Tara mantras
• How music and creativity can help support mental health
• What it means to Genevieve to live in her purpose
• Hear Genevieve’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding practices, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something people might not know about her, what she’s reading right now, and what’s bringing her joy.

Today’s episode is a big one because we have one of the slowest-moving planets, Saturn, moving from Capricorn into Aquarius tomorrow. Saturn has been in Capricorn since January 2020, and these last three years have been very impactful, to say the least! I’m predicting that this move into Aquarius will also be a monumental shift. Join me to learn why!

Show Highlights:

• The basics of Saturn, a planet of constriction and the experience of our karma
• How Saturn brings awareness of our limitations and responsibilities and teaches us to develop faith to combat our fears
• How to look at Saturn in Aquarius through the lens of your chart to personalize it
• How the themes of Saturn in Aquarius deal with regulation, along with disciplined and principled efforts to achieve community, economy, and connectivity
• A look at the amazing networking events that took place the previous two times that Saturn was in Aquarius
• What this shift means for your business around innovation and creativity
• Why I think we will see a boom in smarter technology over the next two years–and major changes in the way we do online business
• Why this is a good time to assess the communities you are part of and consider refining your networks and systems
• My advice: “Stay calm, stay connected to each other, and take good care of yourself.”

Welcome! I have a very special episode for you today as I’m interviewing my partner, Keyaho Rohlfs. Even though he is usually a man of few words, I got him to open up about his spiritual practices and the wisdom he has gained through following the Lakota traditions. A man of many interests, he is a playwright, baker, farmer, and musician. I hope you enjoy getting to know the love of my life with whom I am privileged to share every day. Join us for this conversation!

Show Highlights:

• How Keyaho came to be part of the Red Road tradition of holding true to Native American ways through his long, winding path
• How Keyaho realized academia was not his place and embarked on a hitchhiking adventure that led to alcohol, drugs, and depression
• How freedom became a preoccupation for Keyaho and led him from Chicago to Savannah, as he searched for a feeling of belonging
• How Keyaho found the saxophone and didn’t let it go–because it symbolized hope
• Why Keyaho feels that the theater and open mics can save people

Happy New Year! As we begin this new year, you may feel pressured on every side to make resolutions and set goals; like me, you probably hear a lot of talk about New Year’s Resolutions. There’s nothing wrong with setting those goals, but I feel that resolutions and goals often fall short because they don’t have intention behind them— that’s what I’m talking about today. I hope you’ll join me!

Show Highlights:

• Why there is a big difference between setting goals and setting intentions
• What it means to truly set intentions in the best way possible
• Why the New Year doesn’t have astrological significance but brings in an auspicious time
• How to use successes and accomplishments from last year to help set intentional goals that will stretch us in 2023
• Why intention is about flourishing and co-creating outcomes with universal forces
• How to make SMART goals that are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timebound
• What it looks like to add intention to SMART goals for your business and life (Grab a notebook!)
• How to let yourself flow into a dreamy state to let your brain create and sink into intention

Today I’m discussing money karma, astrological timing, and career success. Our focus on this topic is prompted by a question from a client in my coaching course, Your Magnetic Blueprint.

Join me for a closer look.

Show Highlights:

• An explanation of planetary periods and why they are powerful
• How the planetary periods change the way your karmas play out
• Why a period of affliction means you should move more slowly and rest more
• The basics of the main, secondary, and tertiary planetary periods
• How changing planetary periods sometimes bring major shifts in priorities, interests, and personalities
• How each planetary period has a flavor and influence by the nature of that planet
• Why you should continue with long-term vision even against the odds of the planetary period
• My advice: “Move more slowly, use remedies (covered in Ep. 52), and know when the windows are there to take action and when to rest.”
• Why a slower planetary period is an invitation to shift, as I’ve done by:
• Shifting core beliefs and mindset
• Widening my karmic pool by partnering with others to give back
• Creating a Saturn list of tasks I have avoided
• How partnering with others whose karmas complement yours can be helpful
• Why giving back helps the universe see you as a collaborator

Even though postpartum anxiety is common and carries less stigma than it once did, things escalate to a whole new level when a birth defect diagnosis enters the mix. The stress and anxiety of a mother, father, and caregivers are compounded when new parenthood involves caring for a baby with special needs, and these parents feel more alone than ever. My guest today shares her story to let other parents know they are not alone in their struggles. There is hope, there is help, and there are resources! Join us to learn more!

Robin Giesen is a certified perinatal mental health therapist who experienced postpartum anxiety herself. That anxiety was further compounded by the news that her son had a rare birth defect. Robin explains what craniosynostosis is, and how her son’s condition impacted her anxiety. After that totally unexpected diagnosis with her firstborn, her second pregnancy brought the same diagnosis to her second son while in utero. She explains how she coped and why she is invested in helping other parents who are going through similar circumstances. Robin is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Long Beach, CA. She is certified in perinatal mental health, leads a postpartum anxiety group at her practice, and is a Bringing Baby Home educator. Robin opens our eyes to the rarely-talked-about situation of how a birth defect and caring for a special needs child impact a mother’s mental health.

Show Highlights:

• How Robin’s well-controlled autoimmune disorder brought her worry and anxiety as she experienced her first pregnancy almost 11 years ago
• How an emergency C-section and a NICU stay complicated what she thought would be a normal labor and delivery
• How Robin began thinking that some harm would come to her baby if he wasn’t right beside her
• Why Robin started taking medication to “take the edge off” of her anxiety and intrusive thoughts
• How Robin noticed something strange about the shape of her son’s head, saw a pediatric eye doctor, and received the diagnosis of craniosynostosis
• Robin explains craniosynostosis and its impacts
• How Robin went through the unimaginable scenario of neurosurgery for her newborn son
• Why Robin felt guilt over her son’s diagnosis and anxiety in preparing for his surgery
• Why Robin is adamant with her clients today about coregulation and how it begins
• How Robin’s second pregnancy (through IVF) revealed that her unborn son also had craniosynostosis
• How her second son was delivered via planned C-section with a totally different outcome—and no anxiety for Robin even though she faced another surgery for her baby
• Why Robin realizes that she should have done more than talk therapy after her first son’s birth
• How Robin helps support other moms facing similar situations with their children

We have discussed the upcoming eclipses in past episodes, but I wanted to get more specific since they are just around the corner. Since eclipses often come in pairs, the in-between time can get sticky. Let’s talk about how these energies affect our lives and businesses and how we can make the most of this time. Join me now! Show Highlights:

An explanation of the eclipses and the retrograding nodes Why this time has the quality of moving things backward to disrupt existing patterns and create powerful shifts How this energy can propel us forward with innovative thinking–IF we are intentional The first eclipse on October 25 is a solar eclipse and the new moon; in the lunar constellation Swati, this energy is about receiving information, creating force, and being open to newness and freshness. My advice for the period between October 25 and November 8: As a business owner, avoid important decisions, contracts, and hiring new people during this time. Since karmas come to the surface to be dealt with, it’s important to focus on practices to ground yourself, remain calm, and give yourself grace. Eat well, rest well, and be slower about making decisions. This period is a great time for visioning, journaling, and taking in all the new ideas that come to you. The second eclipse is a lunar eclipse on November 8; it is a deep, ponderous, receptive, and creative container for an intense and powerful chakra. Why the placement of this period is about catharsis, like a death to bring rebirth and a release to allow something to be reborn Why this in-between period is a time for reflection and inner work and requires us to be grounded and intentional during this shifting time My advice: “Tap into your creative side and allow your new ideas to be born after November 8. Don’t fear the strong energy of the eclipses and remember that their goal is to eliminate obstacles and difficulties. Embrace the process and become even clearer about your purpose.”

We all need more positive emotions and positive changes in our lives, but how do we make those things happen? Most of us don’t know where to begin, and that’s where today’s guest comes in with real science and practical wisdom. Join the conversation to learn more! Dr. Nicole Tetreault is a compassionate neuroscientist, author, meditation teacher, and international speaker on topics of neurodiversity, neurodevelopment, creativity, mental health, and wellness. Her book, Insight into a Bright Mind, explores groundbreaking research examining the experiences of unique, creative, and intense brains through interviews, storytelling, and literary science while advocating for new directions of human diversity and neurodiversity. Based in Los Angeles, she leads a new generation of meditation practices by fusing novel discoveries and neuroscience with the ancient lineage of Asian meditation. As a recipient of the Milton Career Exploration Prize from CalTech, she founded the novel nonprofit Beyond the Cell, a transformative program to rehabilitate incarcerated women through guided meditation, neuroscience, literature, and expressive writing. Nicole believes we can wire our minds for positive plasticity through compassion and wisdom and live the life we dream. We have a conversation full of juicy material around creating optimum conditions for our brains to be in a creative state, love-based vs. fear-based emotions, and so much more that you can put into practice right away. 

Show Highlights:

How Nicole was drawn into neuroscience because of her mother’s Parkinson’s disease diagnosis How Nicole came from a place of anxiety in caring for her mother and learned to “sit with what was” and quiet her mind through meditation The facts: Over 16,500 scientific papers have been written about the benefits of meditation and mindfulness to reduce stress and anxiety and alleviate PTSD. How science shows that chanting activates different brain areas than standard meditation  How chanting and meditation practices help regulate the heart rate by releasing positive neurochemicals How chanting and meditation rewire new patterns into more love-based states instead of fear How meditation benefits can come from simple things, like taking a walk to notice nature or cooking How we can cultivate a positive mental state if we find ourselves in a place of fear Why we have been trained to prolong the emotion of fear and not be in tune with our natural intuition How love-based emotions shift us into a place of trust, greater connection with others, less sense of othering and suffering How our brain waves can have a shared consciousness and oneness through chanting How meditation helps cultivate a creative mind state The identified stages of the creative process: practice, incubation, insight, evaluation, and elaboration How working with the hands opens up the mind and helps creativity to flow What has been found about the lasting effects of gratitude and appreciation How Nicole approaches the language of neurodiversity in her book How each individual has their own “brain print,” shown by the different types of wiring and ways of processing the world  What it means to Nicole to live in her purpose A look at Nicole’s astrology Hear Nicole’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something people might not know about her, what she’s reading right now, and what’s bringing her joy right now.

Today’s show takes on a different flair than usual because I want to tell you a story. It’s my story of how we came to live on this 160-acre farm in rural Maine. The story goes way back to the roots of my relationship to land and the desire to care for land, and it continues through a beautiful weaving that is daily fulfilling my deepest dreams. YOU deserve to live out your biggest dreams, too! Join me to hear my farm story! Show Highlights:

How my love for the land, caring for the land, and gardening was nurtured at a young age by my grandmother How my time in Manhattan, my rooftop garden, and joining a CSA group (community-supported agriculture) taught me about the food system and eating well How my life fell apart with my divorce and caused me to focus on my spiritual life and travel to study and learn in India How a strong message came to me on a meditation retreat in the Himalayas along the Ganges River How I returned to the US to the Pacific Northwest and met my current husband—who just happened to have the same dream of owning land and farming How the house and a 160-acre farm in Maine came on the market at exactly the same price we were hoping to pay for .15 acres in Oregon How things have fallen into place for us to beautify the farm and house and plant trees and gardens How our next big plans are to hold outdoor retreats here and make this a spiritual refuge for people to visit How our desires are part of our dharma to be our purpose and WHY to wake up each day

We are talking about dharma, artha, kama, and moksha, which are the four aims of life according to the Indian wisdom teachings. I’ll discuss each one and put them in context for you as a business owner, including why your business should tap into all four. Join me to learn more! Show Highlights: The four aims of life: Dharma, which represents justice, righteousness, and balance, means sharing your particular gifts. It correlates to the first 25 years of life.  Artha is about acquiring material wealth so we can take care of our responsibilities and generally covers life from 25-50 years.  Kama is about enjoyment, which is just as important as dharma and artha. It roughly correlates to ages 50-75. Moksha is about release, which means setting aside material things to finish untying your karmic knots, releasing things you no longer need, and preparing for death in honor of the cycle of life. If we are lucky, this correlates to ages 75-100.  How these four periods can happen concurrently, with none of them being more important than the others Why spiritual entrepreneurs have the opportunity to include all four aims and not focus solely on artha and business building How each of the four aims is at work in your business: Dharma is your reason for doing what you are doing–your WHY. Artha, infused with dharma, inspires us to give back and make more impact as we grow our bottom line. Kama is where we derive our inspiration; it’s essential to prevent burnout. Moksha is all about “the bigger picture.” It is about legacy, taking time away for retreat, and knowing what really matters.  If these four aims resonate with you and the kind of business you desire to build, please joinhttp://www.weaveyourbliss.com/group-program ( Your Magnetic Blueprint) today!

Each of us is gifted with aspects of creativity; the difference is that some people are aware and attuned to those gifts in deeper and more fulfilling ways. These are the creatives who use their gifts to make an impact in the world and touch other lives. My guest today is a gentle soul who brings his creative gifts forward in unique and time-honoring ways to brighten our world. Join me for a closer look at his work.  Satya Moses is an artist and illustrator from New England. His life and art combine respect and reverence for the non-human, a deep fascination with folklore and mythology, and a love of God according to his understanding of Hinduism. This summer, he self-published his first book, Hare and the Hedge Woman: Stories from the Forest, a collection of interwoven, original fairy tales replete with intricate illustrations influenced by his explorations of traditional European lore and ecology. Satya shares openly and generously about his process in the work of creation in staying the course on his long-term book project. Show Highlights:

How Satya’s love of art and creation began in his earliest memories, mainly because of the encouragement of his parents Why Satya is fascinated with folklore and traditions of cultures around the world How cultures develop as our similar ideas are expressed in different ways, depending on our language and landscape How Satya’s book came to be, both the stories and the illustrations Satya’s advice for those who work on long-term creative projects (His book took about six years to complete!) How Satya brings his spiritual practice into the creative process Why storytelling around a fire at night is the pinnacle of tapping into the depths of the human experience What “living in your purpose” means to Satya How your creative calling can have a big impact in the world–but also contains a paradox Hear Satya’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something people might not know about him, what he’s reading right now, and what’s bringing him joy right now.

Welcome to this episode! We are discussing obstacles, which we all experience in various forms. Let’s talk about how we can better relate to them and navigate them for better results in our businesses and lives. My goal is to give you a wider view and offer some useful ideas around remedies. Join me now! Show Highlights: What an obstacle is: limiting beliefs, mental stories, fears, trauma responses, etc. Why Saturn is the key planet regarding obstacles How the lesson in obstacles is to develop satisfaction and calm the nervous system beyond any obstacle How I react to obstacles in business, like making an offering that isn’t received: Have I clearly described the value in this offering? Am I clear on why I am the person to provide this offering? Am I clear on who the offering is for? Are there limiting beliefs that I could work on? Do I need support to see my blind spots or help me refine? How we can do better at refining when we encounter an obstacle: What can I learn in this moment? How am I perceiving this obstacle? Am I repeating negative messages about the obstacle? Possible remedies for the obstacle (Check out Ep. 52 for more about Remedies!) How my signature program, Your Magnetic Blueprint, can help you develop tools and skills to help with obstacles

I’m talking today about the Saturn retrograde and how it impacts your business. I’m giving you questions to answer to help you review and reflect on your business during this time. Join me now for a closer look! Show Highlights:

How Saturn retrograded in Capricorn on 7/12 and is the planet that forces us to experience our karmas and be disciplined Why you might experience delay, red tape, and a break in momentum in order to get things done in a Saturn retrograde How this Saturn retrograde continues until 10/23 and makes an excellent time for reviewing things in your business Questions to keep in mind: What have you learned about yourself in the past 2-½ years? What gifts are you not showing up fully to give? How can you refine some aspects of your offerings? Are you willing to experiment and “fail forward”? How the Grand Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in 2020 and Saturn’s retrograde this month help us massively uplevel as humans on the earth How Saturn creates fear that is not supposed to disturb our minds Another question: What is the scariest story you have in your head about your business or about stepping fully into your gifts? Why I recommend that you write these stories down in a journal and look deeply at them, question their validity, and rewrite them Need help? Contact me! See Resources for the links. Why Saturn makes us cling to the known and fear change; we can break these habits by strengthening our muscles

Today’s show is a real treat! It’s a rich conversation about being grounded and using divination as a tool. We discuss those things and much more with our exciting guest. Join us! Téo Montoya is a human design analyst, metamodern myth mender, and indigenous futurist living in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He is also an enrolled member of the Lipan Apache Band of Texas. His work focuses on synthesizing cosmological and spiritual systems, myths, archetypes, and modalities to find ways of supporting an emerging world in crisis through human development, ecological literacy, and reciprocity with our more-than-human kin. In today’s conversation, Téo explains myth mending and the concept of meta-modernism, along with indigenous futurism, how he defines it, and why it’s important in this day and age. His work is important because it is on the leading edge of where we go from this current time of ecological and social crisis.    Show Highlights: A brief overview of how Téo’s spiritual path unfolded, thanks in part to his unusual mentor of ten years How understanding human design brought an understanding of the different ways of being human and conscious Why Téo’s work and focus falls between the esoteric and the practical spaces Why the current “meaning crisis” is contributing to a psychological health crisis Why we need myths and systems that help us understand who we are and where we fit into the complexity of our world How we move through developmental stages of an intersubjective understanding of reality The difference in modernism, postmodernism, and meta-modernism The work of myth mending in helping people rebuild their meaning-making muscles The basics of human design, which is a synthesis of multiple modalities that helps people bring their fullness into the world A look at Téo’s chart and what it shows for him The interesting space of being “in-between” spirituality and practicality How Téo explains indigenous futurism as a narrative blueprint for the future How we can remain hopeful and aware of the infinite possibilities for the future, even in the midst of the terrible things around us How the incarnation cross in human design is our energetic purpose in the world Hear Téo’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, favorite books, and what’s bringing him joy right now.

I’m happy to be back with you after taking some time away for retreat. It’s so important that all of us take time to reconnect with something greater than ourselves and be refreshed. I have found that taking time for retreat and rest is good for my business, too, so I view it as essential to my well-being in many ways. I hope you will take your time for retreat, rest, and reconnection in whatever ways are possible for you. Let’s talk about the bigger benefits of time away! Show Highlights: How my recent “mugwort experience” on retreat inspired me and reconnected me to the Earth, the sky, and natural rhythms How time away gives you space for true rest and helps generate new ideas and creativity How time for retreat connects you in community with new people How completely letting go of normal daily activities opens up new doors and possibilities Why taking time for retreat is a celebration of life and the joy of being human Why I urge you to take time for retreat and rest—even if it’s only one day

Today’s episode goes deep into the paradox of living in the material world and being connected to spirit, especially regarding the things we navigate in that space, like karma. There is a lot to learn, so I invite you to join us now! Dr. Robert Svoboda is one of my main friends, clients, and mentors, and he is my very first return guest to the podcast. You can find out more about his background and life story back in Episode 13, so please go back and listen! In today’s conversation, Dr. Svoboda talks about what the planets are actually doing to us and what the purpose of spiritual development is. We also cover the topics of Kundalini, the Atharva Veda, and how we, as spiritual people, should relate to money and the material world.  Show Highlights:

How the planets, specifically Saturn, play into “living our purpose” Why the planets “cause” us to experience karmas How Saturn asks all of us to understand our responsibilities and obligations in the world and to deal with them ethically and harmoniously How we experience contentment (Santosha) by not having strong cravings in your field of awareness How it’s possible to change some of our karmas What it means to “be IN the world but not OF it” How the different personalities we display in certain situations cause us to be misaligned and unharmonious in our lives How Ahamkara relates to Kundalini in self-identification and individuality How the Atharva Veda helps people align themselves with a well-integrated life What it means to have a healthy relationship with money and to plan for the reality of our death What Dr. Svoboda is reading now

Setting intentions in our businesses and lives is a very powerful concept, and it plays a big role in the way we bring things to fruition. Join me for a deeper look at why goals and intentions are not the same thing.  Show Highlights: Why setting an intention is much more than a goal because it means “putting your life force into something” Why an intention doesn’t have to be an outcome-based goal  A closer look at the concept of “the ends justify the means” How the intention that we set for something will create the outcome Why it is important to set up our businesses with the intention of having space for rest, nature, and other things Why it’s easiest to set intentions on a regular basis by following the moon’s cycle Practical ways to set intentions to create more power behind them and remind our subconscious  How intentions create the direction for our lives while remediating our karma by refocusing our attention

What does it mean to say YES to life and allow things to unfold? Today’s episode is a powerful one if you are looking to understand what it means to surrender. Our preferences shouldn’t guide us, but we should look to understand ourselves, our purpose, and our unfolding from a deeper space of connection to what is real and true. Join us to learn more! Holly Krepps is a certified yoga therapist and the co-owner of Circle Yoga Shala in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. She has trained and developed teachers at home and abroad for 22 years. Circle Yoga Shala offers training and yoga programs, in addition to growing their own food, engaging in eco-conscious practices, and rescuing horses. Holly understands yoga as an integrative system, which has provided her with unique opportunities. She works with athletes, private clients, and yoga teachers-in-training, and her focus is on discovering habitual patterns of behavior that interfere with the “flow state.” Her passion is helping others connect deeply with who they are-free from stories, emotions, beliefs, and the past.  Show Highlights: How Holly’s journey to spiritual awareness and yoga took many detours along the way How alcoholism affected Holly’s life very early and led to a severe disconnect How Catholicism affected Holly, prompted her to search for more, and eventually led her to yoga, meditation, and surrender How Holly met her husband, who is a yogi, chef, and drummer How they built a thriving farm, retreat center, and yoga practice together because Holly learned to say YES to what kept showing up How rescue horses came to live at the farm through another miracle How money karma, living a life of service, and trusting what’s happening are at work in Holly’s life Holly’s program, Unbridled Transformation, and how it has evolved as a merger of yoga, purpose, and working with horses What it means to be open to “now” and find meaning in life’s roller-coaster ride How Holly was drawn to work with me and why she’s glad she said YES Hear Holly’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding practices, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something people might not know, what she’s reading and recommending, and what’s bringing her joy right now.

Intuition has always worked to move me forward in my life and business. Most people need to listen more to the quiet voice of intuition! We need to listen to and trust our gut, but it can be difficult to say YES to our intuition when we are used to shutting it out with noise and busyness. In business, I use my intuition constantly on sales calls, relying on it much more than what I see on paper. If you need empowerment and encouragement to listen more carefully to the voice of your intuition, join me now for this episode.  Show Highlights:

Why we MUST follow our intuitive hits to test them and take action Tips for cultivating your intuition: Spend regular time in silence and in practices that connect you to something greater than yourself. Notice thoughts, omens, and serendipities as clues to what your intuition is asking. Show your intuition that you are listening. How intuition is ruled by the moon, the planet of creativity, emotions, changeability, nurturance, and feminine energy How to do a remedy for the moon to strengthen your intuition  My question for you: How can you better honor your intuition in your work?

Today’s episode is a special treat. We are discussing food, feminism, values, and love with two amazing women. I’m joined by the founders of Bloodroot, “A feminist restaurant and bookstore with a seasonal vegetarian menu.” Bloodroot is a unique space that celebrates diversity in feminist thought, food, and cultures from all over the world. It’s been called an “indispensable gathering spot for progressive women.” I was privileged to enjoy lunch there recently, and I am thrilled to share Bloodroot with you today. Selma Miriam and Noel Furie are the founders of Bloodroot, which has been serving its customers in Bridgeport, CT, for over 40 years. Selma and Noel are two of the original members of the lesbian collective which began in 1977 and has grown to include women from all over the world. It’s in a beautiful waterfront location that has become a sanctuary for feminist thought and radical political discourse over the years. Their restaurant is known for its vegetarian food that incorporates unique dishes and flavors from all parts of the world. Selma and Noel are very much pillars of the feminist movement, and their series of essays are featured in the book, Our Daily Lives Have to Be a Satisfaction in Themselves: 40 Years of Bloodroot. Show Highlights: Selma and Noel share highlights in their journey and the beginnings of Bloodroot How and why the early feminine movement rejected all male and female stereotypes How Bloodroot became a place for “angry feminists” to find out who they were and exist outside the patriarchy How they were very intentional in creating their space, even down to logistical details in the day-to-day running of a restaurant Why Selma and Noel are committed to showcasing foods from around the world as a way of getting to know each other and different cultures Why diversity is important under the feminist umbrella to respect all beliefs and cultures Why Selma and Noel are happy to be “living their values” and working hard in connection to the earth How our culture misinterprets sex and love–as opposed to the meaning of real love What Selma and Noel think about today’s feminist movement and why they feel hopeful for the women of today Thoughts and advice from Selma and Noel about living in your purpose How creativity and expression are manifested through every endeavor of Selma and Noel Hear Selma and Noel answer rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, inspiring people, what they are reading/recommending, and what’s bringing them joy right now.

The focus for today’s show is on remedies.They are at the core of astrology, playing a big role in our lives. Join me for a closer look at what remedies are and how they can help, along with specific examples of remedies that you can start using today! Show Highlights: Why I define a remedy as a powerful way to interrupt patterns that are going on in our lives that we don’t necessarily love How remedies can also be used in positive ways to accentuate the things we DO love Why we have an intuitive sense about remedies based on the places where we often get stuck and fall into old patterns

Steps in using a remedy: Have awareness of the places you get stuck. Take some specific action that will move you forward, like a Mercury remedy (Listen as I share specific examples that you can implement today!) Why I always look for blocks and opportunities with every client so I can suggest remedies to them How remedies can remediate difficult karmas that you came into life with How remedies work to create more space and ease with intention

Kate Schutt is an award-winning singer-songwriter, guitarist, and producer whose voice NPR calls “glassily clear and glossily sweet.” Her songs have won top honors from the John Lennon Songwriting Contest and ASCAP. American Songwriter calls Kate’s newest album, Bright Nowhere, illuminating and “the work that ought to bring her the wider recognition she so decidedly deserves.” Kate has shared stages with Terri Lyne Carrington, Bill Frisell, Julian Lage, Scott Colley, and Bernard Perdie, to name only a few. When not making music, Kate is an elite life coach who specializes in helping people navigate big, pivotal, powerful moments, like being ready to die, creating new careers, starting new businesses, and chasing gold medals. Her TEDx talk, A Grief Casserole, has had over 50k views and has been called “nothing short of life-changing for people struggling with grief and loss.” In this conversation, we go deep on the subjects of grief, death, and loss. Kate shares how she sat with her mom as she was dying, and how that experience led to the songs on her new album. Join us to hear Kate’s story, her wisdom about the creative process, and her inspiring music.  Show Highlights: Kate’s journey as a musician, which began with piano and guitar at age 11 How songwriting for Kate is a process to get an answer to something—a very SLOW process with precision and restraint How Kate uses folders to create her “word horde” files of ideas and words to be used in songwriting How Kate marries music and lyrics in her songwriting process How Kate’s reading shows creative energy and the amplification of poetry, perfectly explaining who she is and what she does The story of Kate’s mother’s cancer journey and the four-plus years that Kate enjoyed being with her and caring for her to maximize her quality of life How Kate’s song, Victory on the Road to Defeat, came about during her mom’s illness as a commentary on the western system of medicine How Kate was galvanized to be frank and honest with her mom during her illness–and how loved ones can show up for each other in similar instances What it means to “pre-grieve” and prepare yourself for the death of a loved one–and even your own death Why Kate has “ready to die” practices to remind her that we are all “on the edge” between life and death Why Kate’s experience with the loss of her mother has made her more aware of the sacredness of time and the need for people around her to know what they mean to her What it means to Kate to live in her purpose Hear Kate’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, inspiring people, something people might not know about her, and what’s bringing her joy right now.

Today’s topic is timely and relevant as we find ourselves in the space between two eclipses. Join me to learn more about the energy of eclipses and how they can impact your business and your life.  Show Highlights:

How eclipses always come in twos or threes and bring things to the surface for us (Our current time frame is between the last eclipse on April 30 and the next one on May 15.) How the energy of the nodes is changeable and innovative at its best and destabilizing at its worst Why this time right now is perfect to ground yourself and dig in How we can ride the intensity skillfully by staying grounded in our practices Why, regarding business, I don’t recommend being visible on eclipse days Why eclipse days are a time to turn inward and journal, do rituals, and think innovatively with quiet time and rest Why eclipse days are not good days in your business to promote yourself, sell, or attract energy to yourself Why I choose to lay low on eclipse days and spend time chanting, resting, and journaling

We’ve seen huge growth in the popularity of yoga in recent years, and people turn to yoga for many different reasons. Today’s show brings interesting insights and perspectives from a longtime expert in the field. Join us for this beautiful conversation. Eddie Stern is a yogi, author, and lecturer from NYC. He has studied yoga since 1987 and runs the Broome Street Ganesha Temple in Soho. His latest book, https://amzn.to/3y1noVD (One Simple Thing: A New Look at the Science of Yoga and How It Can TransformYour Life), examines a decade’s worth of study on the correlations between the yogic and western views of the nervous system. The book gives an in-depth look at the underlying scientific mechanisms that make yoga work. This is an enlightening conversation about breath and its importance to yoga, the cool story of the founding of the Ganesha Temple, and Eddie’s surprising views about yoga in the US today. The beautiful Broome Street Ganesha Temple is the site of our interview, which unfortunately ended abruptly with technical difficulties. You’ll miss some of Eddie’s answers to my rapid-fire questions, especially about the books he’s reading, but we’ve included two of his recommendations in our Resources section.  Show Highlights: Why the Broome Street Ganesha Temple is a labor of love that has taken several years to become “a beautiful sanctuary in the middle of the city” Eddie’s journey to yoga, which began around age 19-20 and became the most important part of his life Why the science of yoga intrigues and fascinates Eddie How the science of breath ties into yoga and has become a prominent subject in recent years How breathing and other autonomic functions help restore and maintain balance in our bodies Why the yogic tradition teaches that we should measure our lives in breaths Why we should apply the idea of expansiveness to our sense of time and allow breathing to slow down the speed of our minds Why most yoga practices are only surface level, where people attempt to live more conscious lives How yoga is greatly misrepresented in the west Why Eddie wrote his book, One Simple Thing Eddie’s thoughts about gurus, the guru tradition, and the correlation to yoga Why the guru tradition probably won’t work in America because of our hedonistic attitudes The connection between activism, social justice, and effecting change in yoga practice How Eddie views his relationship with social media and his advice about using social media What it means to Eddie to live in his purpose Hear Eddie’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, an inspiring person, and his morning routine

Welcome! Today’s show takes a closer look at this time, astrologically speaking, which is one of great transition with opportunities to step more fully into our purpose and gifts. Join me to learn how we can navigate this transition more skillfully. Show Highlights: How the last two years have brought karmic residue that I call “dealing with reality” (Take a look back with me!) Why transitions must be honored and even marked with a ritual of some kind to let go of “the old you” How multiple transitions overlap at times and are like a rebirth of sorts How Saturn moving into Aquarius has the quality of community and requires “out-of-the-box” thinking and facing our fears How the Sanskrit word sundi can be applied to a time of transition, like “being in between two places” Why it’s important to take very good care of ourselves during a time of transition when our bodies are more susceptible to sickness and disease Info about myhttps://weaveyourbliss.ck.page/86140bff98 ( FREE Aligned AF Visibility Challenge) for entrepreneurs and online business owners from April 28-May 19; it’s about aligning with the planets with strategic prompts to call in your ideal client!

Today’s episode features a special friend who has been an important part of my life for over a decade. We are discussing sustainable agriculture, climate change, and more! Join us! Judith Redmond has been a farmer for over 30 years. She is one of the founders and owners of Full Belly Farm in the beautiful Capay Valley of northern California. In addition to overseeing 400 acres and 80 different crops, Judith has run their CSA (community-supported agriculture) program and managed the weekly Farmer’s Market. With many hands-on tasks, Judith is also part of the regulatory compliance effort and helps oversee the financial and business operations at the farm. She understands the larger issues and the importance of sustainable agriculture, along with facing the challenges of wildfires and drought in the midst of their Mediterranean climate. Judith explains what it’s like to be a farmer in the era of COVID and what organic agriculture can offer to help mitigate climate change and move us forward.  

Show Highlights:

How Judith was inspired by her grandfather to become a farmer How Full Belly Farms began when four farmers came together in 1989 with a desire to produce organic food How the farm has grown and expanded to include 80 different crops, flowers, chickens, and sheep How the farm is forward-thinking in the “fertility” of the farm through composting and cover crops, all in an effort to return carbon to the soil How the pandemic challenges demonstrated that the local food system was there to help people when the mainstream food industry failed Why Judith considers farming a form of activism How community-supported agriculture works  How the relationship works between fertile soil and microbes, so the groundwater is not tainted with water-soluble fertilizers Why farmers need to take risks, learn new techniques, and be willing to constantly adapt to meet the challenges of the pandemic, wildfires, and climate change How Judith has moved into a transition time toward retirement from full-time farming and working more with nonprofit organizations  Why community, communication, and collaboration are important to Judith What Judith is working on right now What it means to Judith to live in her purpose Hear Judith’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something people might not know, what she’s reading, and what’s bringing her joy right now.

Welcome! This is a time when so many things are happening astrologically, so I invite you to join the Patreon to learn more and get weekly updates. Happening on Wednesday of this week, Jupiter moves into Pisces, so let’s talk about what that means. Show Highlights:

How Jupiter has been entangled in the Grand Conjunction with Saturn since January 2020 Jupiter’s energy and characteristics as the “Great Teacher” How Jupiter in Pisces brings the quality of seclusion to seek out information, like through meditation, creative endeavors and channeling ancestors How Jupiter in Pisces brings conclusion and relationship to the subconscious, bridging the material and astral world For business owners, this brings expanded possibilities and opportunities with creative energies and lightened stress and strain; it is also an excellent time for success in teaching and finding support from the teacher figures in your life My advice: “Take note of how the shift affects you, pay attention to your intuition and dreams, and keep a Jupiter journal over the next year of the places in which you feel more space.”

I’m thrilled to introduce you today to my yoga teacher. We recorded this interview live while we attended a recent retreat in Baja, Mexico, so hopefully, you find any background noises calming and peaceful. Join us to learn more! Scott Blossom is a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda. He is very good at elegantly combining science with the experiential practice of yoga. Scott studied for a long time with the founder of Shadow Yoga, Shandor Remete, and he was also a student of Dr. Robert Svoboda. Scott has been teaching yoga since 1997, and he has been an integral part of my life for the past ten years. In today’s conversation, Scott shares his journey into traditional Chinese medicine, yoga, and Ayurveda; what lights him up about his work; and his advice to others who are figuring out their purpose. We also discuss the decolonial worldview, waking up the inherent truths inside us, and the important role that yoga can play in this awareness.  Show Highlights: Scott’s journey as a pre-med student who discovered yoga as a helpful study tool and dove headlong into eastern medicine, meditation, and spiritual practice How Scott combines spirituality and science How Scott works with patients in his clinic to help them trust traditional Chinese medicine in the western world Why prana is called “the nexus between Ayurveda and hatha yoga” The benefit of cultivating a relationship with prana, which comes subtly into yoga with movements How the efficiency of your circulatory system can determine your biological age Scott’s work around Ayurveda and the microbiome–and how science is proving now what Ayurveda has always known The core of Ayurveda: how the microcosm and macrocosm reflect each other What it means to Scott to “live in your purpose” Scott’s advice to others who are trying to find their purpose What has helped Scott make it through the pandemic by paying attention to basics, like sleep and mental health  Why it’s important to honor the ancestors of our land, our practice, and our families How a decolonial worldview recognizes the inhumane exploitation of people How yoga, traditional Chinese medicine, and Ayurveda can be ways to re-light a fire within us to preserve indigenous cultures that have been lost Why we have to allow “all the voices” to grieve together and heal together over racial justice Hear Scott’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something people might not know, what he’s reading right now, and what’s bringing him joy right now.

We are in a time of planetary war, so what does this mean for your life and business? Join me as we dive deeper! Show Highlights: The basics: Mars and Venus are in a planetary war, and these usually only last a few weeks. This current war goes from February 12–March 13. Why is this planetary war so important? It lasts longer than usual. Mars and Venus are passion planets  Why too much Mars energy can be aggressive and intense Why Venus is winning the war, and Mars is vanquished, which results in reactivity How this planetary war impacts the wounded masculine and divine feminine How Mars and Venus operate while in Capricorn Mars with Saturn results in a push/pull energy to leave us with blame, flared tempers, and victimization. Venus with Saturn brings the opportunity for transformation in death and rebirth cycles. How Saturn makes us experience our karmas How the Grand Conjunction will affect humanity over the next 20 years How we can evaluate our relationships during this time of refinement My advice: “Be easy on yourself, and take care of yourself. Move your body, and do things that calm your nervous system. As things are difficult, try to extract the learning that is there.”

Today’s show is a heartfelt and deep conversation that we recorded live when I was in Baja, Mexico, a couple of weeks ago. What an honor it was to talk to this man and hear his beautiful insights! Join us! I was blessed to meet Krishna Das on my very first trip to India ten years ago. If you want to hear my story of this trip and its significance in my life, listen to Episode 3. Krishna Das (KD) is an American vocalist and kirtan chant singer called “Yoga’s Rockstar.” His call and response form of chanting has been heard around the world and he was nominated for a Grammy award. KD is a beautiful storyteller with wonderful stories about Maharaj-ji, his guru. KD's story is also featured in a movie called One Track Heart. He shares with us how karma is actually liberation and how the guru helps us work through our desires in their highest forms. KD also talks about the path of Bhakti, or devotion, and what happens when we are chanting. Show Highlights: How Maharaj-ji wanted KD to satisfy his desires that are beneficial to him on his path KD shares a story about Maharaj-ji and a sadhu How KD’s path led him to be a different kind of rockstar, fulfilling his desires Why desires are natural and not inherently bad The story of KD’s meeting with Ram Dass and its life-changing effect How Maharaj-ji transmitted feelings of being home and belonging What it means to surrender and be at home within yourself What is meant by ultimate reality vs. relative reality Why the program is to accept yourself and live life like it really matters How every thought and action creates karma, either positive or negative How to plant the seeds of repetition with the names of God What it means to KD to “live in your purpose” Why trusting yourself is such an important part of the path The purpose of chanting: to pay attention and let joy and peace come from within Hear Krisha Das’ answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding practices, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something people might not know, what he’s reading right now, and what brings him joy.

I’m coming to you from beautiful Baja, Mexico, as I sit in a hammock under some palm trees on the beach. I am here for a retreat in this very beautiful setting that is the perfect backdrop for today’s show as we talk about the element of space. Cultivating space for yourself is very relevant if you are looking to shift your karmas or further digest planetary influences in your life. Join me–and enjoy the peaceful background sounds of the ocean waves and the breeze through the palms.  Show Highlights: Space: it’s one of the five elements of the Vedic tradition (earth, water, air, fire, and space) Why one of my purposes in participating in this retreat is to create some spaciousness for myself How we can cultivate space for ourselves to access our intuition How space is created through retreat, rest, and pausing before speaking How even our eating habits can create space for us How creating a sense of presence and peace through our practices help to cultivate space How being still and slowing down helps create space through breathwork and meditation How specific tools like chanting and buying flowers help create space Why it’s essential to understand the value of negative space How choosing to rest, slow down, and allow negative space shift society’s paradigm upside down My parting advice: “Wherever you are, take a moment to cultivate space for yourself to feel more joy and expansiveness.”

Today’s topic is a timely one since today is the New Moon. Paying attention to the Moon’s cycles means learning the best times to reflect and turn inward quietly and when it’s best to create something new in visible ways. Join me to learn more about working with the energy of the Moon in your business.  Show Highlights: Why the fast movement of the Moon makes it the most changeable planet How the New Moon applies to your business: These are days to rest, recalibrate, review, celebrate your wins, and set new intentions for the upcoming lunar month. How to set new intentions: Get quiet and reflect. Write down the intention. Vocalize the intention. Use a scent to “set” the intention. How momentum comes after the period of the New Moon, bringing a time to plan, create, and be visible Why foundational practices are important for stability and riding the wave of the Full Moon How the five days after the Full Moon lead to nine days of the waning Moon before the next New Moon—thus completing the full cycle

Let’s talk about how a Saturn List can help you be the best version of yourself. Join me to learn more. Show Highlights: What are you willing to do in 2022 to be who you want to be in 2023? How we are evolving in the shifts that are taking place, which brings things to the surface Why some things have to be shed as we fully step into the shifts and empower ourselves How this time of purge or intensity means we need to ground ourselves with whatever practices work best for us How journaling can help you notice what is coming up and limiting you Why these times are fertile times to investigate inward and invoke divine grace toward our blocks and fears What is a Saturn List?  It is a list of the tasks we know we need to do but have been avoiding How I use my Saturn List to please Saturn, mitigate blocks and fears, and create lightness and peace as those tasks are completed Why the difficulties around you are an invitation to be your best and highest version of yourself–so don’t waste the opportunities in front of you!

Today’s show is an eye-opening interview with a Soul Midwife. We are talking about death, dying, and how to make things more peaceful and comforting for those who are dying. This topic is an important one, especially in light of the current pandemic and the large number of people who are dealing with loved ones who are dying. Join us to learn more! Dawn Young is a Soul Midwife. She has done hospice volunteer work since 2012, and she also co-facilitates a community grief group in Astoria, Oregon. She is a member of NODA, No One Dies Alone, and she volunteers at the local hospital in Astoria. Dawn trained to become a Soul Midwife beginning in 2015 with Felicity Warner, the founder of The Soul Midwife Movement in the UK. Our conversation goes deep into what we need to know as the living to become ready for death and how we can take care of those who are dying by noticing the process they undergo. We also talk about how people have passed away alone during this pandemic and how that has changed Dawn’s work. Along with other Soul Midwives, Dawn conducts free Zoom presentations every few weeks called Dying to Chat. See our resources section for more information.  Show Highlights: What it means to be a Soul Midwife, a holistic spiritual companion to the dying and their families How working in a pediatric hospital many years ago brought Dawn into her work with the dying  Why being in service to those who are dying and their families has become Dawn’s life purpose How the physical death process includes changes in appetite, blood pressure, breathing, and other functions as the body prepares to shut down The four stages of death recognized by a Soul Midwife: Earth–The patient becomes fatigued. Water–The patient becomes incontinent and may cry a lot. Fire–Restlessness and terminal agitation set in as the patient realizes that death is coming. Air–The patient becomes peaceful and quiet. How death is like birth–and the midwife’s role is similar in both cases Why death is more difficult when people have a lot to resolve to make peace with themselves and others The mystery of what dying people see in their final moments that we don’t see or understand Dawn’s advice to the living: “Keep your relationships current and healthy.” How Dawn’s work has changed because of the COVID-19 pandemic Why death should be a time when people are loved, safe, and not alone How we can set intentions to reach a loved one through our energy What Dawn wishes we all knew about death and how we should “do death differently” How to approach a dying person with calm, slow intention, peaceful touch, and soft words Dawn’s advice for dealing with the difficult conversations about death with our loved ones What it means to Dawn to live in her purpose How to better listen to your intuition How our culture doesn’t really value the elderly like other cultures do How essential oils can be beneficial in soothing someone through the transition to death Hear Dawn’s answers to rapid-fire questions about great advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, an inspiring person, something that people might not know, what she’s reading, and what’s bringing her joy right now.  Parting advice from Dawn: “Be gentle with yourself and others. What you do to another will affect you. Take each person’s heart into consideration. Keep your relationships current and be loving and kind.”

Happy Solstice! As we’ve come into December, it’s a great time to talk about what we are experiencing as we move forward into 2022. Join us! Show Highlights: How we thought 2021 would be easier, but we now find ourselves in a period of great refinement Why this recent Grand Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn is unique  Things we should evaluate and consider regarding technology and its “costs” How our views of the work we do have shifted to be more purposeful and less compromising Why we look for space in each day for play and creativity and connection with people and nature–in a paradigm shift How Jupiter and Saturn are moving quickly to cause destabilization, which stimulates a breaking up of stagnation in our lives How the old paradigm is replaced with new imaginings and connects us with divine forces My genuine hope for each of us in these next few months: “Step into your power and give your gifts at their highest.”

Today’s show brings an interesting perspective on health, happiness, purpose, and fulfillment. We are also comparing holistic and traditional health care. Join us to learn more! Dr. Vignesh Devraj is a fourth-generation Ayurvedic physician based in Kerala, India. His family owns an Ayurvedic pharmacy that has been open for over 100 years and has been passed down through his family. He grew up learning about Ayurveda from a young age but rebelled against the learning that was forced on him until an interesting experience changed his life and set him on his path. Now his mission is to help Ayurvedic practitioners, health coaches, and allopathic doctors who are interested in using Ayurveda to help people deal with modern chronic diseases.

As we have just experienced the eclipse, we are entering a powerful nodal time for the next few months. It’s helpful to understand more about Saturn and how we can work with Saturn’s energy. Join me! Show Highlights: Why Saturn is the planet of experience and all the karmas Why this time of the nodes is disturbing, destabilizing, and a quick-changing time of energy How Saturn is the “puppeteer who is pulling the strings,” holding the power to make us experience hard karmas and discomfort Why pain and discomfort can be a time of purification that leads to living our highest selves How Saturn strips us of distractions and reminds us to rely on our inner support How Saturn is a teacher who doesn’t deny the lesson--but sometimes delays the lesson What it means when we have to live out a bad karma, and why we need to prioritize ourselves and our process My personal example of nodal disruption Why no one is immune to Saturn’s effect of dissatisfaction and limitation How service to others can help us in our difficulties

Karma is complex, and I’ve seen it affect many lives. Join me for this solo episode for a deeper look!

In today’s show, we are talking about the north and south nodes, places in the sky where eclipses happen. They are known as Rahu and Ketu and are considered shadow planets in Vedic astrology. They have the properties of creating quickening, destabilization, innovation, and change. Let’s talk about the times of change that are on the horizon and how you can make the most of them! Show Highlights: How two eclipses are coming on Nov. 18/19 and Dec. 4: These are “lay low” days that can be disturbing. Emotions can be pulled to the surface. Be mindful, don’t take risks, and be extra careful. After the eclipses, we move into a period of Kala Sarpa, which lasts for 5-6 months; this means the nodes have all the visible planets on one side. How Kala Sarpa is a time of swift changes that is hard emotionally and physically; you may feel busy and disrupted, so ground yourself in the things that serve you best From a practical perspective, get back to the basics of yoga, mantras, and meditation My tips: do one simple thing that can anchor you in the morning and honor the change From an ayurvedic perspective, drink hot liquids, oil the skin, stay warm, and eat simple foods; notice when you feel scattered and come back to yourself, ground yourself, and move more slowly. Other tips: be in nature as much as possible, ask for help and support, schedule breaks, be more organized, and don’t make rash decisions. In business, you may want to take a break and be less visible on social media

Welcome to another exciting episode of Weave Your Bliss! The topic of today’s show is about what astrology is for…and what it’s not for. Paula shares why astrology is an important guide for us. So whether you use astrology as a tool or maybe you’re a skeptic, this episode is for you! Paula shares personal examples of how she uses astrology and weaves a fascinating show interlacing your superpowers, intuition, grace, and your own abilities to understand patterns in astrology. In today’s episode, Paula shares how Simply riveting! Be sure to catch the show! Show Highlights: Astrology helps us to understand ourselves better Use astrology maps to identify “knots” to understand potential difficulties in your life You may identify patterns in astrology after reading many, many charts Astrology charts give us a map to help us step into our purpose It helps us to stop comparing yourself to others Paula shares how astrology is number-oriented Astrology confirms your own intuition. Intuition lies between the beta brainwave state (decision-making) and high-beta (stress), neglecting the alpha brainwave (creative) and theta (what we’re in when meditating) It’s important to trust your intuition… but it’s always good to test it! Astrology helps us to understand timing. Timing is baked into the astrology map. Astrology is thousands of years old and has been used over and over to determine the correct timing of things. Astrology is a gift to help us better understand what is going on and to give us a lens through which to look at the play of the universe, this whole lifetime in which we are living. Astrology is not for typing people and putting them into a box to limit them. Astrologers are human and not perfect…they make mistakes, too. Astrology is not something to blame when something goes wrong. Difficult periods are important for moving us forward toward “enlightenment.” If you’re a business owner, you can use astrology as a powerful tool to help you make important business decisions.

Today’s show takes a look at shadow work, which is a practice that uncovers parts of our personality that may be more obscure. Even though shadow work can be unpleasant, understanding its basic function can flip the script on past traumas and bring freedom and empowerment. Join me to learn more! Show Highlights:

How shadow work comes from the work of Carl Jung, who explored the “unconscious parts of our personality” How our days are run mostly by our subconscious programming How Ayurvedic shadow work requires digging below the surface to look at our stories, behavior patterns, and what has impacted our minds The goal of shadow work The connection between our karmas and the planets, the supreme possessing agents of our lives How shadow work helps create more groundedness, healing, and overall mental health Why shadow work is repellent because it forces us to look at the unpleasant parts of us, but gives us the opportunity for transformation How shadow work is essentially taking back our story to be empowered by it How your birth chart can indicate where the shadow work needs to be done because of past traumas and the stories that hold us back  How shadow work brings us freedom as we learn to trust the unfolding

Today’s show is about clearing stagnant energy and working with the ancestors to understand Ancestor Fortnight and what’s taking place energetically with all of us. Join me for this solo show as we take a closer look at this normal process of reflection and why it may be a bit uncomfortable. Show Highlights: What you need to know about Ancestor Fortnight, from September 21-October 6; a time when the energy is darker, and we move inward to honor ancestors and reflect on what we’ve learned Why this is a time to be aware of tendencies that have come through our family line and whether these are working in our favor Why we may want to cut cords with certain energies that have gotten mixed up and work on self-care, meditation, ritual, etc. Why Ancestor Fortnight is a powerful time for transformation but not a time for starting something new, like contracts, marriages, business launches, etc. Why it’s a time for getting systems in order, cutting things out, letting go, and making space Why the beginning of September is a time to celebrate Ganesh (the elephant god), who is a remover of obstacles, and it’s a time to connect with roots, traditions, and ancestors How Ancestor Fortnight is a composting period as we prepare to step into a period of creativity, regeneration, and reconnection How the next energy will be the new moon, a time for growth and expansion Tips for making the most of Ancestor Fortnight: Support yourself with self-care Give yourself grace Embrace gratitude practices Release stress and pressure

In the most crucial time in a family’s formation, the most basic needs of new parents are often overlooked and undervalued. Let’s dive deep into how we can help as individuals, a community, and society in general.

She lives on the beautiful Oregon coast with her husband and two children.

Support--New parents need support from family, friends, and paid helpers. Care--Traditional practices and healthcare support are essential for new parents. Why all the challenges don’t completely resolve themselves by the traditionally accepted six-week or 40-day postpartum period How Kestrel wishes the world could be different for parents in the postpartum, with more parental leave, more doctor visits, more midwifery, and more robust healthcare for families How being in business has been transformative for Kestrel’s self-growth What you’ll find on Kestrel’s website and how it helps people with information, ideas, resources, and reflection How Kestrel is developing a certification for the new maternal health role of “postpartum navigator,” one who helps parents plan and offers support How community building plays into connection and support for families How people can support a family in the postpartum from near and far away The new term, “kin work,” and how it plays into life’s purpose The importance of self-work in caring for others How working toward social justice can be part of all the work we do in the world How the pieces of Kestrel’s astrology chart play out in the work she does The importance of parenting in the crucial purpose work that serves society A glimpse into Kestrel’s creative works and her role as a homeschooling mother Hear Kestrel’s answers to rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, her favorite hot beverage, her last meal on earth, her morning routine, an inspiring person, and what brings her joy

Join me to see how this is extremely relevant to what’s going on in our world today! Show Highlights: How Jupiter and Saturn, the two slowest of the visible planets, come together with a clash of harshness, seriousness, and an expansion of consciousness When these two planets cross, the grand conjunction brings a new era of thought and a seeking of new ways forward The interesting parallel between the grand conjunction of 1960-1961 and the one that began on March 29, 2020, when a strange virus literally stopped the world in its tracks How the effect of the grand conjunction made us really uncomfortable and brought unrest to the surface The destabilization that occurs in Kala Sarpa Yoga, when all the planets are on one side of the nodes Why things eased up in June 2020 as humanity attempted to upgrade like never before as Jupiter went back into Sagittarius Things began to heat back up again as of November 20, 2020, when Jupiter moved back into Capricorn and then moved into a planetary war with Saturn in December As the eclipse occurred on December 14, 2020, the energy pulled things to the surface How Jupiter moved into Aquarius on April 6, 2021, and moved back into Capricorn on September 14 The highlight to remember is that something is underway, so we need to shed fears and limiting beliefs and take actions to build and expand How you can be an open channel for the divine by dreaming big, making a plan, and getting focused and energized For the future, Jupiter will move back into Aquarius on November 20, 2021, and then into Pisces next April, which is the beginning of the end of this cycle How do you find joy through the ups and downs?
