I think that most of you should stop sending a newsletter. Like, right now. Immediately. CLOSE THE SUBSTACK TAB!

When you start learning about marketing a business outside of Instagram or social media, one of the first things that gets shoved into your brain is the idea that you NEED to send an email every week to your audience.

This is both terrifying and daunting, because

  • The idea of reminding someone you exist every week means they can reject you EVERY WEEK, vs. sliding under the radar hoping they don’t unsubscribe from your email list simply because they don’t notice you. Yery Jurassic Park “T-rex can’t see you if you don’t move” vibes.

  • Writing — not putting together a bunch of pictures, not talking in a 15 second IG story, not recording an off-the-cuff podcast, but actually WRITING something — every week is time-consuming, even for people who don’t have to google where the apostrophe goes for its and it’s every time. (It’s me, I’m people)

So a lot of us don’t do it, or pretend that this advice doesn’t apply to us, or stick our fingers in our ears and go LA LA LA I CAN’T HEAR YOU.

And — pay attention, this is where I vindicate you and you get to forward this to everyone who’s ever made you feel bad about your inconsistent email schedule — the advice to send a newsletter every week is burning people out, keeping them stuck in content loops that don’t convert, and creating audiences who don’t actually know what you do.

Not because you’re doing it wrong! But because a weekly newsletter might be the wrong tool for you entirely.

I know you’re punching the air in celebration right now. But before you get ahead of your skies, I regret to inform you that there’s some solid logic to the Internet Person Commandment #1, “Thou shalt email your list every week.”

Here’s what it gets right:

  • building your email list is important because it’s the only digital audience real estate you “own,” meaning it’s independent of a platform (like Instagram or Youtube), you can take it with you anywhere, and it’s not impacted by petty algorithm changes that hide your content from you audience at the exact moment you’re really trying to reach them

  • but an email list full of people who don’t know who the hell you are or WHY they signed up for you email list in the first place is another type of hell, and definitely not a hell that you can make money in (more like a hell that makes you feel like a unwelcome guest in your own home, like you’re interrupting a party that you organized… yuck)

  • so you should email your list regularly to create trust and recognition — this creates a relationship between you and your audience members, especially when you provide them value

  • and putting out regular content is a great way to test your ideas and gauge general audience interest

Basically, help people remember who you are and what you do and give ‘em a little somethin’ somethin’ that makes them happy to see your name in their inbox instead of feeling dread or annoyance when your name pops up next to a subject line.

It’s easy to reduce all that logic down to a quick and dirty bottom line — I’ve gotta email my audience every week OR ELSE — and forget the very important why and to what end behind the action.

In the past, when my students or clients have inquired about the Weekly Email Problem I’ve recommended a few solutions.

PROBLEM:

I don’t know what to send, and so I send nothing. Or it takes me a really long time to write an email every week because I spiral into an existential crisis about whether anyone cares about my thoughts on Wednesday mornings, so I just... don’t do it.

SOLUTIONS:

Create a template you can easily replicate every week and fill in with content, like a newsletter.

Figure out what you’re actively selling or promoting, and using the stages of awareness reverse engineer what you’ll talk about each week in your weekly email.

Use your weekly email to promote your other content (like a podcast, or a Youtube video, or a blog post) and have that be the “focus” of the email.

But I have to amend my advice — because not everyone should send out a weekly newsletter instead of an original piece of content to their audience.

And for some of you, a dedicated weekly newsletter might be doing the opposite of what you want it to.

Think of it this way: content educates, a newsletter informs.

It’s a great format for showing your audience a ton of information. You can easily include links to events, information about upcoming offers, quick updates about what’s up in your world and what you’re enjoying or inspired by.

That’s perfect for a product aware audience — an audience who knows what you do, who you are, and what the value of your product or service is.

But most people who subscribe to your email list are not product aware. They’re still figuring out what you do, and if it can help them, and if they can even trust you.

While they might enjoy the link you share to that chic shower lamp you’ve been using for low-sensory night showers, they’re probably not frothing at the bit to work with you or buy your product. Confused people don’t buy things.

I could argue that confused people also don’t stay subscribed to a Substack publication long-term, but perhaps that’s a discussion for another day.

This is how the weekly newsletter trap creates Void States:

The Uninspired State: You’re on autopilot, filling a template with links week after week. You’re not teaching your actual perspective or expanding anyone’s thinking—including your own.

The Burnt Out State: You’re exhausted by the hamster wheel of it. Another week, another newsletter to cobble together. You’re prioritizing consistency over clarity, and it’s draining you.

The Overwhelmed by Possibility State: You’re throwing everything at the wall — links, personal stories, half-formed ideas, updates — hoping something sticks. But you have no idea what’s actually working or who’s paying attention.

Sound familiar?

When you’re trying to decide what to send email-wise to your audience, remember it all goes back to what you’re trying to do — what’s the most important point for you?

Trying to grow your audience?

Trying to teach or sell?

Trying to build brand identity?

Trying to test your ideas?

Trying to gauge audience interests?

Decide what you’re trying to do FIRST, then design what your regular email missive could look like… not the other way around.

And here’s where I get to the good news: You don’t have to publish on the same day at the same time every week with military-like precision.

You can skip a week, you can publish on different dates, you can change it up! I personally believe that done is better than perfect, but I don’t think you should shortchange quality just to hit an imaginary deadline that no one else really cares about. Your subscribers aren’t sitting there with a calendar and a sharpie marking off the days since your last email, grumbling to themselves if you don’t hit ‘em with a freshie at exactly 9a on Wednesday morning.

Here’s what I believe: there’s always a more creative way to get what you want. Including with email.

The weekly newsletter is one tool. Not the only tool! And definitely not the right tool for everyone at every stage of their business.

Over this next few emails, I’m going to show you how to think about your email strategy differently:

  • What to send when you’re building an audience vs. converting sales

  • How to structure content that actually moves people through your world

  • How to design an email rhythm that serves your goals instead of someone else’s rules

Because the point isn’t to email your list every week. The point is to build a relationship with your audience that converts them into paying clients.

And there are a lot of ways to do that that don’t involve scrambling to send a link roundup every Tuesday at 9am :)

I've seen no fewer than 17 different examples of people creating self-learning syllabi for themselves, whether it's "these are all the movies and books and podcasts I'm gonna consume in September" or "these are the things I'm going to read and think about in Q4."

And I love that impulse! The impulse is correct, it shows a sense of intrinsic curiosity and — dare I say — whimsy which we DESPERATELY need more of in this world. Personally, I’m an absolutely sloot for learning. I would identify as a lifelong learner — it's arguably one of my most deeply held values.

Buuuuuuuuuuuuut I think when you just give yourself a list of things to read or consume without a little digestif moment at the end of it all, you're kind of knowledge hoarding without real transformation. It’s a touch of capitalism-inspired scarcity mindset — just endlessly accruing and consuming stuff without stopping to breathe and check in and decide what to do with everything you’ve acquired.

This will win me no friends, but to me this rabid consumption of information without taking time to metabolize and process what you’ve ingested is almost equivalent to just endlessly doom scrolling on TikTok.

That doesn’t mean I think you should light your self-learning syllabus on fire and commit to a life of smooth brainery. Instead I have a small suggested amendment to your study plan — an artifact.

In this episode we talk about...

The confidence-competence flywheel. Why sharing your half-baked thoughts actually makes you smarter (and how this loop can take over your entire life in the way that holistically improves your experience of being).

Knowledge wants to be used, not hoarded. What happens when information sits unused in your brain like books gathering dust on a shelf, and why that miiiiiiiight be contributing to our collective de-evolution.

The artifact approach that changes everything. How creating something — anything! — that helps you process what you learn transforms you from consumer to creator (and why your weird interests are exactly what the world needs, not to go all cheesy on ya).

The stuck-in-student-mode solution. If you've been collecting ideas but never sharing them, waiting until you're "expert enough" to have opinions, or convinced your thoughts aren't valuable enough yet, this approach helps you transition from consumer to creator while building confidence and credibility simultaneously.

Thanks for tuning into our series these last few weeks on divination and channeling — did you have fun? I had fun! I hope you had fun.

I went into this divination series experiment with a pretty strong opinion about people who throw around the word "channeling" in their marketing copy. Six weeks later, I haven’t totally changed my stance… but there were quite a few ideas that emerged in our research that’ve really stuck to my ribs.

As we wrap this experiment, I’m left with four big ideas that I’m still rolling around in my brain that directly relate to channeling.

In this episode:

I.

The body always finds a way to become a divining rod.

It’s not all about freeing your mind and opening your third eye.

The body plays an integral and oft overlooked role in divination/channeling/flow state, and even thought I know this it still surprises me how involved the physical body is in the quest to become an antennae for cosmic information. It’s very easy to get all ethereal and heady and mental about spiritual stuff and forget your body is a necessary (and literal) vessel of information.

Regulating the nervous system through somatic practice — meditation, breath, repetitive motion, routine, etc. — is key for clear downloads.

This realization hit me like a brick to the face, which is infuriating because I literally study embodied cognition. I'm training to be a Feldenkrais practitioner for pete’s sake. I should know this. Yet I'm constantly trying to bypass my body — can't I just think my way through everything? Can't I just sit down and make art without paying attention to whether I'm breathing?

But every single divination practice we explored came back to the body. Spiritualist artists used repetitive motions to access trance states. Automatic writing requires that flow state you can only reach through breath work or movement. Even your morning pages routine is a somatic practice, though we pretend it's just "journaling."

II.

Fluency in your preferred medium makes channeling more powerful.

You’re able to more accurately describe what you’re channeling when you have more words to say it.

Think of it like a computer's operating system. If channeled information shows you "a green tree taller than the tallest building you've ever seen," but your reference for "tallest building" is a two-story house, you're going to translate that as a three-story tree instead of a massive sequoia.

Agnes Pelton, trained from childhood in oil paint and color theory, could translate her visions with precision that someone who took art classes in middle school simply cannot match. It's not about the information being wrong — it's about having enough vocabulary to communicate what doesn't work linguistically.

This is why I get annoyed when people dismiss skill-building as "too academic" or "not intuitive enough." If your first language is movement, energy will communicate through movement because that's the path of least resistance. But if you only speak one creative language, you're limiting what can come through.

III.

Channeling is kind of a code word for “ego-less information.” It’s simultaneously not that special and so goddamn special.

Just like giving birth or falling in love.

When someone uses the word "channeled" to describe something they’re presenting to the world, I think they're kinda of covertly messaging: "I don't have skin in this game. I'm delivering this information without agenda. I'm just the messenger." Whether that's actually true is another question, babyyyyyy.

IIII.

There are benefits to delusion and meglomania!

Self-trust is essential for accessing flow states. The thing that blocks most of us from channeling anything useful is self-surveillance — watching ourselves from a distance, judging and editing in real time. Narcissists don't do this. They're like "yeah, that's divine wisdom" without questioning themselves for even a second.

I'm not endorsing spiritual megalomania, but most of us could benefit from like, ten minutes a day of drinking our own Kool-Aid. Spend the other 23 hours and 50 minutes of the day doubting yourself if you want! That’s none of my business.

But you have to get over yourself is the bottom line.

OK, so those are my direct influences from the last seven weeks — but I wanted to take some time to zoom out a bit and reflect on some pattern observations I’ve seen in the intuitive business and creative work space.

Things I’m noticing whether I like it or not

I’m of the belief that you need to change up your inputs (experiences, habits, research, practices, influences) to get new outputs (ideas, lessons, beliefs, skills, outcomes).

There were a bunch of things that I did this summer — some planned, some coincidental — that shifted my inputs:

  • I went on a “summer break” from seeing 1:1 Matrix of Destiny clients

  • I spent two weeks in Ann Arbor training in the Feldenkrais Method (normally my trainings are over three days on zoom)

  • Saw a new round of 1:1 business advising clients

  • Welcomed lots of new members to the North Node and personally did onboarding calls with about half of them

  • My schedule changed a little bit because we (blessedly!) enjoyed a nanny share for two half days a week, which meant that I got 4-8 more hours of “free time” in every week

  • Put a 15-minute per day timer on my social media use (truly I’m rolling my eyes at this myself because it’s just SO BASIC IT’S SO ANNOYING but it really did impact my inputs and outputs for the summer!)

And all of that ^^^ contributed to the things I spent time doing, thinking about, getting annoyed by, etc.

There were a few striking patterns that seemed to emerge this summer in the intuitive business and creative work world as a result of those shifting inputs. It’s tough to say if what I’m noticing are actually global patterns, or just microtrends within my little ecosystem. I’ll let you be the judge — either way, I think it’s curious! One of my favorite parts of my job is that I get to talk to lots of people from lots of walks of life and it’s gotta mean something that these concepts have come up so many times with so many different people this summer.

"Wait, I Don't Actually Want This"

Nearly every new business client this summer had the same realization — they didn't really really want to pursue what they'd initially contacted me about. They'd been on autopilot toward goals that were no longer theirs. And these aren't people following societal expectations; these are self-directed entrepreneurs who'd outgrown their own previous desires without noticing.

Running Experiments / “Adjust, try again. Adjust, try again.”

People are running experiments and adjusting in real time instead of going back to the drawing board. Launch didn't work? Adjust one thing and try again. This health intervention failed? Try a different approach. Less "burn it all down," more "tweak and iterate."

The rage fuel ain’t fuelin’ like it used to.

The sacred rage that fueled so many businesses and activist projects is running out of steam. Anger is fast fuel but burns out quickly. People who built entire platforms on rage against AI, MLMs, patriarchy, corporate America are finding it unsustainable. The rage is still valid, but it can't be your only creative fuel source.

I’m seeing people reaching for sustainable fuel that doesn't require you to stay perpetually pissed off.

Whew, OK let’s wrap this up

This whole exploration reminded me that channeling might just be the magical-mundane experience of accessing flow state where ego steps aside. Whether you call it channeling, intuition, or getting out of your own way, the mechanics are surprisingly consistent: get present in your body, develop fluency in your medium, trust what comes through, and create something that didn't exist before.

What stuck with you from this? I want to know what you're noticing in your own creative practice or in the patterns around you.

I almost didn't record this episode because, honestly, I think we’re all a bit AI'd out. Or maybe it’s just me, IDK.

But since we're deep in a series about channeling, creativity, and the importance of wielding your consciousness, I figured it was time to address the elephant in the Substack server room.

Here's the thing: I'm not anti-AI, but I'm also not about to let a computer do my thinking for me. Like???? Have you guys even read a sci-fi novel before? That’s an obvious recipe for disaster-slash-technological apocalypse.

I can have empathy for why someone might be tempted to outsource writing, thinking, creating, innovating, designing, etc. to a non-sentient algorithm. But I believe using your brain and wrestling with ideas and concepts and art and reality and consciousness and self-concept is like… a biological imperative. Is that not kind of the point of living? Anyway, I’m by no means the first person to point this out.

After spending weeks talking about why the wrestling and way-finding process of creativity is so essential to our humanity, I've got some thoughts on how to use these tools without, you know, completely atrophying your gorgeous brain.

My Personal AI Commandments

  • I don't use AI for anything I can't do myself

  • I don't use AI “just for funsies” — it’s a waste of resources, like leaving the water running or turning your AC on full blast at noon in the middle of August. Also AI is boring! Why would I talk to a chatbot when I can just talk to a smart person. Or even a dumb person, at least that would be entertaining.

  • I always ask: What am I going to do with the extra time? It better be thinking, reading, creating, playing with my kid, channeling spirits, or touching grass… otherwise I fear I have lost the plot.

Actual brain rot — “use it or lose it”

I grew up in the 90s and have an irrational fear of contracting something like Mad Cow disease and my brain turning into Swiss cheese. If you also fear brain rot, let me introduce you to a concept that will either help you sleep like a big brained baby or keep you up at night staring into the black hole of your ceiling — “use it or lose it.”

Scientists studying dementia found that individuals who started to use a hearing aid as soon as they lost some of their hearing — vs. those who did not use hearing aids once they become audio impaired — had lower rates of dementia later in life. Why? Because the anti-hearing aid group stopped using the part of their brain that processes listening and language comprehension, resulting in neurological atrophy.

Spooky. I think about the “use it or lose it” principle when it comes to my physical muscles, my creative muscles, my intuitive muscles, and I can’t help but feel it’s totally true.

So here's my first rule: If I can use my own brain to do it without emotionally thrashing myself, I'm going to try. Basically, I don’t want to run to AI first if I’m feeling lazy. Feels like a slippery slope that ultimately robs me of my abilities, which leaves me totally reliant on AI.

Before you automate anything, ask yourself: What are you going to do with that extra time?

If your answer is "make more mediocre content faster," please stop. The world doesn't need more AI-generated blog posts. But if your answer is "think deeper thoughts, read more books, have actual conversations, or create something genuinely meaningful," then yes—let AI handle your grocery lists and email sorting.

Think of it like the nutrition concept of "crowding out." Instead of just removing the bad stuff, you add so many good things that there's no room for the junk. Use AI to clear mental clutter so you can fill that space with the stuff that makes you more human, not less.

What AI kind of sucks at as of right now

  • Good writing: There are tell-tale signs (the “It’s not — it’s ” formula…) and honestly, the majority of the writing that LLMs are pulling from is mediocre at best.

  • Original ideas: Once again, LLMs use large data sets to predict the probable next word in a sentence, and then the probable next idea in a paragraph. This predictive nature means that even if you really work the platform to help you come up with new ideas, you’re still probably reheating someone’s nachos.

  • Working reliably: A few weeks ago I spent 30+ minutes trying to get ChatGPT to make a simple grocery list based on five recipes I’d uploaded to the chat. It kept forgetting ingredients, miscalculating numbers, hallucinating recipes. It would’ve taken me less time to just grab a pen and paper and write out what I needed.

Week four of our "Divine Downloads" series and we're asking: what happens when "channeling" becomes a convenient shield for questionable authority?

Today KP and I are diving into Breath of Fire, the HBO docuseries about Guru Jagat and the Ra Ma Institute. The series, “chronicl[es] the shocking secret history of Kundalini yoga and the evolution of one of its most prominent leaders,” and is based on a 2021 Vanity Fair article by Hayley Phelan titled, The Second Coming of Guru Jagat. (I recommend at least reading the article before tuning into this ep.)

Kundalini is a tough topic to broach — there are so many well-meaning people who practice it and who’ve found it incredibly supportive who know close to nothing about founder Yogi Bhajan. (Who was problematic at best, allegedly criminal and abusive at worst.)

It’s hard to square how a “technology” that connects its practitioners to the otherwordly could come from such darkness.

Breath of Fire does a decent job at explaining the sordid background of Kundalini yoga and Yogi Bhajan while detailing the story of Guru Jagat, an equally complex figure. The Vanity Fair article doesn’t mince words: “Depending on whom you ask, Jagat was a bona fide spiritual leader—or a fraud; a controversial thought leader; a bigot; a feminist; a rape apologist.”

It’s tragic that Guru Jagat, neé Katie Griggs, passed away at such a young age under such strange circumstances. And this documentary series does an excellent job investigating some of the questions we’ve been asking about the role of channelling or “divine downloads” in illustrating spiritual authority.

On today’s episode, we're talking cults, frauds, the racism that built Western yoga, and why you might want to take a beat if your spiritual teacher is shooting fake money out of guns on Instagram.

In this episode we talk about...

We somehow connect startup culture to cult behavior, discuss why Venice Beach should come with a warning label, and explore the uncomfortable truth that you can have genuine spiritual experiences in fundamentally dishonest containers.

The perfect cult storm. Anti-structure times + low-boundary people + extreme charisma = Venice Beach spiritual empire. It's a formula, people!

Why breathwork actually works (and why maybe that's the problem). When the practices are genuinely helpful but the authority structure is complete b**t, what do you do with that?

The trickster necessity. Maybe we need spiritual frauds to keep us sane? This theory will hurt your brain in the best way.

Plus: why you should never give anyone your credit card information after breathwork.

Week two of our "Divine Downloads" series and we're diving into the big question: what's actually happening when someone says they're "channeling" something?

Today I'm talking to Hannah Macintyre, practicing medium and host of Mediumship Matters. While most people in the mediumship world just repeat the same old talking points, Hannah's out here asking the questions we all have — even the slightly (very) uncomfortable ones. I really love listening to Hannah’s show, and I’m delighted to chat with her on The Twelfth House today.

In this episode we talk about...

The "special gift" myth. Turns out most mediums don't have some dramatic spiritual awakening.

We’re officially in week two of our “Divine Downloads” series — and buckle up, y’all, because we’re talking about spiritual possession, but in a cool way?

Today novelist, poet, astrologer, and the cohost of COSMIC VALLEY GIRL (season two starts in Sept!) Emmalea Russo joins me to explore the murky, magical territory between creative flow and spiritual channeling.

In this episode we talk about…

The weaponized use of "channeling." We get into why the word can make our hackles rise — is it a cop-out from creative responsibility, or are we all just vessels for something larger than ourselves? Spoiler: it's complicated.

Characters as atmospheric spirits. Emmalea describes how her novel characters literally inhabit her while writing, shifting her mood and language almost automatically. Haters will say she’s possessed!

The alchemical writing process. From chaos to gold, we explore how the vessel (aka you, the writer/creator/maker) is the most important part of the creative work. Plus why strategic silence beats oversharing your works-in-progress every time.

Editing is channeling, too. Through repetition and that delicious friction of working with a human editor who challenges you, something transcendent emerges.

We somehow manage to connect medieval mystics to modern publishing, discuss why your natal chart isn't for public consumption, and explore what it really means to be a "pure channel" (hint: we're all too human for that).

Plus, Emmalea spills on her Book Sherpa accelerator program that, in my opinion and the opinions of many of her students, is more valuable than getting an MFA.

If you’re ready to finally write the book that’s been haunting you for years, Em hooked us up with a special discount code for the sherpa-curious — use EARLYBOOK for $330 off!

Fair warning: we end on some cancellable opinions so… forge ahead to the end at your own discretion.

Found Objects

Welcome to Found Objects, where we give you a behind-the-scenes look at what we’re thinking about, haunted by, reading, making, and what's generally floating around the spiderweb of our etheric minds. These are the building blocks — some directly, some indirectly — that contribute to what we’re focusing on for the next six weeks in our series, The Divine Download: What is Called Channeling?

This is the second post in the series. If you want access to the full curriculum for this series, subscribe to The Twelfth House.

Private Portals

The beginning of the summer felt like being shot out of a cannon — two weeks on X-Games mode (studying / parenting / entrepreneuring) in Ann Arbor, during a particularly busy season at Holisticism (doors opened to the North Node and we welcomed so! many! amazing new members; Ruthless Clarity hit hard and fast for eight full weeks and whooooweeee did it pack a punch) followed by family time on the east coast for a few weeks.

In between all that, the quotidian details: doctors appointments and test results and exercising and being present and hugging friends and making bad art and annotating books and watching movies and finally (finally!!!) getting eight hours of childcare a week. My brain felt deliciously rung out by mid-July.

As I write this, it feels like the dust has momentarily settled in my personal life. I love backstroking through the long, thick days of high summer — no need to rush. The pools of my mind have time to replenish themselves. It’s nice to feel ideas gently bubbling to the surface but free of the urgency to pursue them immediately (rare for me, I’ve gotta enjoy it while I can).

Over the past few months my deepest conversations have circled back around to the genocide and man-made famine in Palestine, the presence of ICE terrorizing our neighborhood and kidnapping our community members, and the general existential helplessness one feels watching fascism consume our government — what do we do? What can we do, when it seems like nothing we try makes a difference?

Well, here’s how I think of it:

If I do nothing, it won’t make a difference to the cause.

If I do something, it won’t make a difference to the cause — but at least I’ll sort of feel better. So why not do something, even if it’s small?

In my mind Chef José Andrés is a Roma Downey “Touched by An Angel”-level earth angel and deserving of the goddamn Nobel Peace Prize for his work at World Central Kitchen. WCK is on the ground in Gaza baking loaves of bread and handing them out daily. They’re a great organization you can donate to here.

A practical guide to reclaiming your time and mental energy without compromising your professional integrity

Something interesting is afoot.

I’ve had no fewer than six conversations over the past two weeks about a very particular problem: what to do about having an unproblematic day job.

“What kind of problem is that,” you’re thinking.

It’s kind of a golden handcuffs demi-fine handcuffs situation — you’ve got a gig that pays well, provides health insurance, and isn't soul-sucking. It’s probably time-consuming, but in an average 9-to-5 way. You might even kind of enjoy it! You have fun slacking weird memes to your coworkers, and whomst amongst us could say “no” to the free snacks that litter the team kitchen? You probably appreciate knowing you’re good at what you do, and being a valuable member of the team makes you feel good.

But here's the thing: it's not your passion.

It's not how you want to spend your one wild and precious life. You have a gnawing desire to get something else brewing — a creative project, a business idea, a calling that feels more aligned with who you really are.

While you’re not pulling 80-hour weeks, you’ve found that you don’t have enough space (mental, temporal, emotional) to really work on your other project. You’re not interested in pulling bleary-eyed all-nighters to work on your side project. But you can’t seem to get enough momentum while working in sporadic, clandestine spurts of free time.

Honestly, it’s not about trying harder or having more discipline or drinking more energy drinks so you don’t need as many honk-shoos a night. If that worked, you wouldn’t have this problem.

You’re stuck between two paths: stay in the realm of financial stability and accept that your side thing will remain a side thing, or quit to make space for what truly matters to you?

In our latest Spiritual Text episode, Jonathan Koe joins me to explore how The Psychology Of Money became an unexpected teacher in the art of being human under capitalism… And THAT’S what I call a spiritual text!

In this episode we talk about…

Money as spiritual practice. Our relationship with money becomes this incredibly revealing lens for understanding our subconscious wiring and inherited family patterns.

The “enough” question. Housel writes that "the hardest financial skill is getting the goalpost to stop moving" — and damn if that ain’t just the skill of life in general? We explore what it means to know when enough is enough.

The compound interest of resilience. Warren Buffett made 99% of his wealth after age 65 — not because he became an exponentially more effective investor, but because compounding interest really started to hit its stride and he didn’t interfere even when things got scary. We talk about not quitting right before the magic happens.

Optimism as strategy. Honestly, you’re just gonna have to listen to the ep to get this one :)

We somehow manage to connect Warren Buffett to the alchemical process, discuss why spiraling on the internet isn't a wealth-building strategy, and explore what your money patterns might be trying to teach you about your next level of growth. And listen, we read the book so you don’t have to (if you don’t want to…) — enjoy!

Short one today — admittedly, I had something totally different locked and loaded in the editorial calendar, but felt compelled by something (a spirit? the Muse? Lucifer? Who’s to say?) to share this instead.

These are the 11 ideas that I feel have changed my brain, my luck, and my life more than anything else. (I mean, the combo of Notion + Are.na is a close second)

Here are the 11 phrases from the podcast that "rewired my brain chemistry and changed the odds on my luck":

  • "It's more fun to have fun."

Make anything more enjoyable for yourself; you might as well have fun with whatever you're doing.

  • "If you're not having a good time, it's your fault."

This was a huge one for me during a time of my life where I had paralyzing social anxiety. When I take 100% responsibility for my experience, I’m not longer a victim to my circumstances.

  • "If you couldn't tell anyone you got it, would you still want it?"

A test to distinguish between genuine desires and people-pleasing/external validation seeking.

  • "It's not failure until the game is over/until the story's over"

You get to decide what the last chapter looks like; failure isn't final until you decide it is.

  • "That's none of my business" / "That's Future Me's business"

What are you going to do in five years? What are you going to do with that degree? How are you going to make money with that skill? What will you do if XYZ happens?

Hi, that’s none of my business. I cannot be bothered to worry about things outside my control, including what happens in the future. Also, I trust that Future Me is a brilliant super freak witch who will know what to do when we get there — I have confidence that she’ll figure it out.

  • "You have a 100% track record of figuring it out."

Trust that you'll handle whatever comes because you always have before.

  • "Your perfect day is always in front of you because perfection is a mindset."

You can always turn your day around; perfection is about mindset, not circumstances.

  • "You look stupid doing nothing. You look stupid doing things. You might as well get something out of looking stupid."

Since you'll look dumb either way, you might as well do what you want and enjoy it.

  • "Sometimes you just have to admit that we're selling you yoga pants."

It ain’t that deep. Not everything has to be achingly meaningful; it's okay for things to just be fun or simple.

  • "The worst thing that can happen is that someone says no."

Ok… they said no… Did you die? No! Time for the next thing.

  • "We are all on a journey of ecstasy and bewilderment"

Embrace the mystery and wonder of life! Stop trying to predict everything. You’re stealing the fun and whimsy!

Take what you like, disregard what you don’t. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Giving you an etheric hug from here — we need your light in the world.

The doors are open to The North Node until July 6th.

Welcome to my gorgeous group of secret Jason Bournes minus the murder (probably!)

No, it’s not because you look like Matt Damon (that’s a compliment).

It’s because you’re walking around using your valuable knowledge and skills in casual conversations, solving problems for people, giving advice that others would pay consultants thousands for... but you’ve completely forgotten that these abilities are extraordinary (and monetizable, but we’ll get there later)

Quick poll: How many of you have ever said 'Oh that? That's just common sense' while someone frantically took notes? Or maybe, “Oh, that’s easy, I’m happy to do that for you. I could do that in my sleep, I can’t charge you!”

If yes, you’re in the right spot.

And, you’re probably someone who has a LOT of confusion about what to spend your one wild and precious life doing … because you enjoy a LOT of things.

Maybe you’re secretly hoping that one day your alarm clock will go off, and you’ll rise out of bed knowing exactly what it is you want to do when you grow up.

Or that some mysterious billionaire will message you on LinkedIn with a job offer that allows you to work from home 3-days a week doing [insert something you love doing here] for a cool $500k salary a year.

I mean, me too. But while we’re waiting for that golden LinkedIn notification, we might as well save ourselves and start getting paid to do the things we enjoy and are good at.

Here’s my perspective:

Your career isn't a destination — it's a living, breathing, ever-changing organism. We're not looking for THE answer, but understanding the dynamic assemblage of experiences, skills, and gifts that make up your unique expertise.

My goal for this session

You'll leave knowing you have expertise. Slay.

You’ll have a good high-level map to start figuring out your packaging / pricing / format to bring your offer or business or project into the world.

… and while I’m confident you can figure that all out on your own through study and experimentation, The North Node helps you get there faster with less wasted resources.

study guide: for when you’re ready to take a leap

So you've graduated from our first study guide ("Help, I'm having an existential crisis and my life feels like a badly written Choose Your Own Adventure book") and now you've entered Phase Two: "I have an idea and I'm pretty sure it's either genius or delusional, but I'm going to find out one way or another."

Congratulations! This is actually gorgeous progress, starbeam. You've successfully evolved from "What should I do with my life?" to "I know what I want to do but HOW DO I DO THE THING without accidentally creating a dumpster fire that can be seen from space?"

This is the study guide for people who're now standing at the edge of the cliff, ready to take a leap of faith.

Maybe you've been carrying this idea around like Gollum with the One Ring—precious, obsessive, and slightly concerning to your friends and family. Maybe you've Googled "how to start a business" so many times that your laptop has started suggesting business schools. Maybe you've made seventeen different vision boards and you’ve filled a year’s worth of Moleskines with your plottings.

Either way, you're here because you've got something you want to birth into the world, and you'd prefer to do it without completely embarrassing yourself or accidentally creating the next Fyre Festival of whatever industry you're entering.

This is a study guide for someone who is about to take the leap

This is for you if:

  • You've got an idea for a business that you've thought through approximately 847 times, but when it comes to actually executing, you wish you could just Google "how do I start a business for people who are excellent at overthinking everything" and get a reliable step-by-step guide that doesn't make you want to take a nap.

  • You know where you're starting, you know where you want to end up (rich and famous, or at least financially stable and emotionally fulfilled), but you're feeling very very uncertain about those pesky in-between steps. You know, The Journey. The part where things actually have to happen in the real world with real consequences.

  • You feel paralyzed by the idea of wanting to "do things right.” You have a general feeling that this idea is Important with a capital I, and that it's vital to get the foundation right. But you also suspect you have about as much business experience as a golden retriever, which is to say: enthusiastic but probably not qualified to make major strategic decisions. [On that note, consider this my formal petition for someone to write an Air Bud sequel that involves Bud having to step into the wingtip shoes of a Fortune 500 CEO]

  • You've stopped and started this project 57 times already, but when it comes to your idea, you're basically in a toxic relationship. "I just can't quit you," you whisper to your business plan at 3 AM, no matter how many times it has disappointed you or made you question your life choices.

  • You really have no desire to build a business/write a screenplay/launch a community/become a person who has to talk to the IRS about tax classifications, but it seems like the Universe has appointed itself your personal project manager and won't let you live your life until you execute this thing. You feel cosmically compelled to do it, but you know you want to do it "on your own terms" — you're just not entirely sure what that means, or if your terms are even reasonable.

Relatable! (If it's not relatable, you're probably on the wrong study guide. Go back to Study Guide #1)

Personally, I never wanted to be an artist, entrepreneur, community builder, or any kind of person who has to explain what they do for work at dinner parties. I wanted to live a nice, quiet life and mind my own business.

Alas, I am plagued by ideas. Cursed, some might say. I truly felt possessed by the idea for Holisticism — it stalked me in my dreams like a la Freddy Krueger, eavesdropped on my conscious thoughts and left cryptic messages in my unconscious until I finally said, "F**k it, we ball," and begrudgingly decided to go through with it.

But once you commit to the FIWB (Fk It, We Ball) lifestyle, then you actually have to do the thing**.

The Inconvenient Truth About Starting Things

Here's the thing: There's not one right place to start.

There are approximately 47,000 things to do when you decide you want to launch a website/business/album/book club/digital course/501c3 that protects endangered sea algae of the Mediterranean. (Respect to the sea algae protectors — someone's gotta do it, and its definitely not me because slimy things make me gag.)

And it's tougher than a two-dollar steak to figure out where to prioritize your energy. Where do you start when everything feels both critically important and completely overwhelming? When your to-do list looks like it was written by someone having a caffeine-induced panic attack?

I'm going to do the extremely annoying consultant thing and say, "It depends!" because that's legitimately the truth, and also because I've been in this business long enough to know that anyone promising you The One True Path is probably selling something snake oil adjacent.

BUT (and this is a big but, I cannot lie), I can give you a high-level, non-custom quickstart guide for getting your potentially brilliant idea out into the world without completely losing your mind or your life savings.

Below is my recommended order of operations for birthing your brainchild into reality. I've also included the courses and challenges from our member community, The North Node, that I'd personally add to your study guide to navigate each stage without having a complete breakdown. (Partial breakdowns are still on the table — this is creative work, after all.)

Step 1: Figure out why you're doing this

While it can be interesting/fun/mildly terrifying to start hammering away at a project without an ounce of self-reflection — purely operating on vibes, adrenaline, and whatever energy drink is on sale — at a certain point, you gotta ask yourself the timeless question: "Bella, where the hell have you been* loca?!"

Your name, obviously *What's your actual aim here

We've talked about intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivation before (intrinsic = "this feels meaningful," extrinsic = "this will impress people at high school reunions"), so I won't belabor the point. But the same exact project could have WILDLY different outcomes depending on why you're doing it.

Getting clarity on what actually motivates you will help you keep going when things get hard. (They will get hard. They always do. This is not pessimism; this is physics.) It'll also help you stay on track when you inevitably get distracted by seventeen other shiny ideas that seem way more fun and way less complicated than whatever you're currently building.

Check out:

  • The Ruthless Clarity 8-week email course (you can literally start this right now, like while you're reading this!)

  • The Subconscious Audit (10-day challenge) in the North Node

  • The Audacious Abundance Shadow Work Challenge (5-day) in the North Node

  • Building Your Spiritual Operating System course in the North Node

Step 2: Look around and see what else is out there

This is a crucial step that approximately 73% of enthusiastic idea-havers skip because it feels boring and also because they're secretly terrified they'll discover someone already did their idea but better.

Before you charge onto the scene, you gotta see who else is already doing what you want to do. If there's truly nobody else on the case, it's crucial to investigate why that might be. Is it because you're a visionary genius ahead of your time? Or is it possible that people have tried to execute on this idea before and failed spectacularly, leaving behind only cautionary tales and abandoned websites with broken links?

Necessary research, my friend. Like checking if the ice is thick enough before you decide to ice skate on the pond.

During this delightful process of internet stalking (sorry, "market research"), you'll also need to get clear on who you're making this thing for. Who's your ideal client/customer/audience/person who will give you money in exchange for your creation? What do you actually know about them vs. what you're assuming? What do you need to learn about them to avoid creating something nobody wants? (This happens more than you'd think. See: Google Glass, Crystal Pepsi, whatever happened to Segways.)

Check out:

  • The Ideal Client Casting Workshop for authentic ideal client work

  • The Ideal Client Tarot Spread

  • Market Research and Analysis Process Workshop

Step 3: Come up with a prototype

Listen, this isn't the Old Testament. You're not Noah getting divine instructions to build an ark for the first time in human history because an omniscient voice told you to.

You're not gonna build a massive, perfect thing in the middle of nowhere, fill it with everything you think people need, and then miraculously have it work WITHOUT LEAKS for 40 days and 40 nights while chaos reigns around you.

Absolutely not.

You're going to test your idea like a normal person who lives in the 21st century and has access to the internet.

Piece by piece. Bite by bite.

You don't have time to waste building something that's completely wrong. You don't have the money to spend on creating elaborate solutions to problems that don't actually exist. You don't have the emotional bandwidth to discover that your "visionary" idea is actually just a slightly different version of something that already failed in 2019.

Life is just one big experiment anyway, and so is literally anything you create. It's a process of trying something, seeing what worked and what flopped harder than a fish out of water, tinkering with the pieces that didn't work, and trying again. Iteration, as the business bros say. (BTW, publishing content is an excellent way to prototype or test an idea for the low, low price of free.99)

Check out:

  • The Heroic Imperfect Action Course and Challenge, a 30-day process that helps you develop a product or service, prototype it, and launch it in 4 weeks (because if you're gonna do something potentially stupid, might as well do it quickly)

  • The Holographic Sales Universe 3-day class, which has an entire day dedicated to validating your ideas but also covers positioning and pricing your creations

Step 4: Build your brand stance (aka figure out your vibe and commit to it)

There's one piece of advice I received while trapped in a tech accelerator program a million years ago (fine, it was 2017 or 2018, but in startup years that's basically ancient history) that I repeat constantly like a mystical mantra: Fall in love with the problem, not the solution.

This might be a controversial take that will make some brand strategists clutch their Pantone color wheels, but I don't think you should build out all the pretty details of your "brand" until you've completed the previous three steps.

Once you know who you're helping or talking to (aka your ideal client/customer/human who will hopefully give you money), it becomes exponentially easier to define what your "brand" should be. It's like having a conversation with a specific person instead of shouting into the void and hoping someone cool hears you.

Check out:

  • The Baddie Brand Book template

  • Stages of Awareness Workshop

  • The Growth Edging Course (listen, I hate that I named it this because it sounds vaguely inappropriate and tells you absolutely nothing about what this incredible course actually contains, but basically this is my copywriting masterwork and I'm too stubborn to rename it now)

Ready to take the leap, but want to pack a parachute just in case? Welcome to The North Node, where we’re there to help you build the plane as you fall through the sky.

It’s kind of crazy to say that our creative working exploratory laboratory, The North Node, has been Paris Hilton-style sliving for five years.

That’s a long time. And that’s a lot of content.

The good news about having such a vast library of resources inside the North Node is that it makes it really, really easy to give new members an actionable syllabus to tackle the minute they join the NN.

(Technically we focus on a new concept every quarter in the North Node, and have three months of programming dedicated to the ideas we’re exploring that includes multi-day courses, bite-sized workshops, group coaching sessions, guest lectures, and implementation challenges that actually make you do stuff. There's always something happening live that you can cannon-ball into when you join us. Plus we meet with all our new members to create a custom syllabus based on their specific goals 🤗)

The bad news about having so much content? It makes it virtually impossible to explain what's inside the North Node without turning into that person at parties who corners you by the snack table and won't stop monologuing about their sourdough starter. (We've all been there. Some of us ARE that person.[to be clear, I am that person])

And another problem with the North Node…

It’s not just for entrepreneurs. Really, it’s a membership for multi-passionate people exploring creative independence, meaningful work, and how to turn their inner wisdom into a life they actually want. It’s a place for people forging their own paths with a little mysticism, a lot of strategy, and total permission to do it differently.

Sure, sometimes that shows up through the “project” of launching a brand or business. But other times it looks like working your corporate gig while expanding your creative and spiritual practices like a sort of witchy double agent. Maybe in 2025 it's figuring out how to balance a part-time job with a passion project you're birthing into the world (monetization status: TBD, vibes: litcherally perfection).

Basically, we're here for anyone who's tired of following other people's blueprints and ready to draw their own map. Even if that map currently looks like a toddler's interpretation of abstract expressionism done in crayon, which is honestly chic as hell IMO.

But, I know that if you’re thinking about joining us in the North Node, you might be like, “……….. but what’s in there?”

Short answer: A lot.

Long answer: So much that trying to explain it all would be like attempting to summarize the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe to someone who's never seen a superhero movie. You'd end up three hours deep in a monologue about infinity stones while they're still trying to figure out why a billionaire decided to dress up like a bat. (Wait, that's DC. See? It's complicated.)

So instead of throwing you into the deep end of our mystical content pool and watching you flounder around like a confused mermaid, I've created this handy study guide for a very specific type of person. So, let’s get into it.

This is a study guide for someone who's at the very beginning of their "wtf am I doing with my life" journey.

This is for you if:

  • You feel you're meant to do something with your life, but you're not sure what… just something bigger/more satisfying/more creative/more weird than whatever the hell you're doing now.

  • You feel like you know some parts of yourself pretty well, but other parts are giving you major mystery vibes. Maybe you've recently gone through some Big Life S**t — heartbreak, geographical upheaval, quarter-life awakening — and your identity feels like a Sim whose player got drunk and just kept hitting "randomize traits" until they gave up and walked away from the computer.

  • You have concepts of a plan (emphasis on concepts)… you're constantly brainstorming and journaling and going down Pinterest rabbit holes at 2 AM, but you haven't landed on an idea that feels like yours.

  • You've been trudging along some career path for a while, but recently had that earth-shattering moment where you looked around and thought "Oh god, I absolutely do NOT want to become my manager." Major Devil Wears Prada energy, except instead of glamorous fashion, it's like... Walt from HR who eats sad desk salads and talks about his timeshare. Same emotional devastation, significantly less Prada.

If you're basically Derek Zoolander staring into the mirror asking, “Who am I?” —then congratulations. You've found your people, and we have snacks.

Now, if you came to me and said, "This, all this, Michelle, is how I feeeeeeeeel! What should I do?!"

I’d probably start by reminding you that although this might feel like a crisis, it’s not. It’s totes normal, totes healthy, totes a part of the archetype experience of finding yourself. You must enter the void to emerge into the light.

And a 37-point set of directions called HOW TO FIND YOUR PURPOSE AND GET UNSTUCK AND NEVER FEEL LOST OR DOUBT YOURSELF AGAIN won’t help you here. You need a compass, not a map, you get me?

I’d probably float a few ideas for you to consider at this stage of your life that could be contributing to your feelings of drifty-ness, lack of clarity, and sense of general impatience to do something while experiencing ambiguous constriction.

But here's the thing — without talking to you, I can't tell you exactly what to do. (TBH, that's not really my style anyway. I'm more "here are the keys to the kingdom" than "follow this exact path or perish.")

But I CAN give you a bunch of doors to knock on with a high degree of confidence that if you commit to the bit, at least one of these pathways will create the clarity you seek. No need to do it all (overkill); just look for the key that opens the next door.

Step 1: Clear the Static (Or: Why Your Brain Is Currently About as Reliable as a Chocolate Teapot)

Before you go meaning-hunting, you gotta clear the static. If you’re burnt out, anxious, or depleted, your instincts and intuition will be dulled. More ideation will just lead you to spiral, instead of build into useful momentum.

This is the unsexy but absolutely crucial foundation work that everyone wants to skip because it's not glamorous. But listen, even Cleopatra*** had to take baths and eat food before she could go conquer hearts and empires.

Check out:

  • The Burnout Recovery Protocol (21-day challenge)

  • The Subconscious Audit (10-day challenge)

Step 2: Explore Meaning-Making Systems (Or: The Great Spiritual Speed Dating Experiment)

Next, tackle meaning making systems like astrology, Human Design, numerology, Matrix of Destiny, Tarot, archetypes, journaling prompts, even spiritual or philosophical traditions. Try ‘em out, try ‘em on, see what you like and cheerfully discard what you don’t. Part of the value in exploring meaning making systems is in rejecting what doesn’t work for you — rejection sharpens your discernment and self-knowledge and helps you shape who you are. Trying on and casting off is part of that.

(Heads up — we have so many classes on astrology, Human Design, numerology, the Tarot, the I-Ching, Gene Keys in the North Node library… too many to list here, hosted by varied practitioners who bring their own unique ✨flava ✨to the work. Can’t list ‘em all, but here’s where I’d start)

  • Matrix of Destiny, Personal Brand Archetypes, and Your Career Archetypes — A Course!

  • How to Find Your Gifts and Talents, According to Human Design

  • Using the I-Ching

  • How to Open and Use the Akashic Records

  • 31 Days of The Tarot Challenge

  • Navigating Your Astrological North Node

Step 3: Map Your Identities (Or: The Great Archaeological Dig of Your Personality)

Once you've gotten your energy back and feel less like a phone on 2% battery, it's time to create your own personal map of who you are, who you've been, and who you might want to become. Consider which of your current identities and self-concepts are due for an upgrade, evolution, or complete retirement ceremony.

This is where you give yourself permission to change your mind, reinvent yourself, and experiment with what feels authentic to YOU — not what your parents/society/that one judgmental cousin at family gatherings thinks you should want.

  • Drawing Your Archetype Wheel

Look, you could keep doom-scrolling LinkedIn for career inspiration (bold choice), or you could join a community of people who've collectively decided that following someone else's blueprint is for people who peaked in middle management.

Seriously though, life's too short to spend it kvetching over whether you're doing it right. Come find out what happens when you stop asking for permission and start asking better questions. We'll be here, probably debating whether Mercury retrograde affects email deliverability and definitely eating good snacks.

Ready to stop asking "What should I do with my life?" and start asking "What feels alive to me right now?" Welcome to The North Node, where we turn existential dread into actionable magic, one step at a time.

Ello!

Thanks for bearing with me as this week’s episode comes out a day later than usual — I’m halfway through in an intensive 20-day Feldenkrais Method in-person training in Ann Arbor and admittedly I’m a little, “what day is it? who am I? where do the bounds of my body end and begin? what is consciousness, even?” on top of having long days and a not-so-quiet shared Airbnb with my partner and 2.5 year old :)

Real quick, reminder that I’m teaching a free class called:

🔮 HOW TO POSITION YOURSELF AS THE EXPERT YOU ALREADY ARE AND GET PAID TO BE YOURSELF (EVEN IF YOUR EXPERTISE IS "INVISIBLE" TO YOU)!

In this workshop, I'll walk you through:

  • The 3 types of invisible expertise everyone has, no matter how old or young or experienced or educated or witchy or talented you are or aren’t

  • A live "expertise archaeology" exercise where we dig through your psychological rubble to find buried treasure (metaphorically speaking — although if you wanna wear your best Indiana Jones cosplay garb I’m not gonna stop you)

  • The #1 money story keeping spiritual people broke (hint: it's not just "money is the root of all evil," though that's definitely in the top 5)

  • A simple framework for testing if your knowledge is monetizable without sacrificing your firstborn to the algorithm gods or becoming one of those people who DMs strangers about "passive income opportunities"

  • How to decide what to monetize, and what to keep for yourself 😇 and how your expertise plays into that choice either way!

It’s going to be fun! Lemme hype you up!!!!! You can register for the class here.

So here's what happened.

I decided to bleach my eyebrows because I love a bold look and figured it would be a perfect way to flex my failure tolerance muscle. For context: I am AGGRESSIVELY Italian. My 23andMe results came back with just, like, a picture of spaghetti as my genetic makeup. While my deepest dream is to be one of those effortless California blondes who look like they were born in a yoga studio, raised on kombucha, and have never experienced a single day of humidity-induced frizz, my Mediterranean follicles would literally dissolve into dust before they'd submit to the industrial-strength peroxide required to achieve my Scandinavian fantasy.

But failure tolerance, right? So I went for it.

First attempt at going full Julia Fox: Orange eyebrows. My sister FaceTimed me and couldn't speak for two minutes because she was laughing so hard.

Second attempt, because apparently I'm a glutton for punishment and also definitely have some unresolved issues around perfectionism: I now look like if Austin Butler's creepy uncle from Dune had a midlife crisis, joined a failed electronica band, and decided to reinvent himself as a SoundCloud rapper. When I showed my very supportive husband, his response was simply: "Oh no, honey. No, Michelle."

And you know what? It was PERFECT failure tolerance practice because everything really is low stakes. Worst case scenario? I dye them back. It takes five minutes. No big deal. At least I TRIED it. Now I know I have the no-eyebrow look in my arsenal if I ever need to be truly intimidating.

The Sacred Law of Compensation

If you read this week’s ritual you know I’m bullish on Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay "Compensation" and the sacred law of reciprocity. Emerson wrote about the duality of life — how for everything you've missed, you've gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something.

He was basically saying: We don't have to wait until heaven to experience goodness. We have gifts right here — a child's laugh, a good drink with friends, reading poetry. But we also know that when good things happen, challenging things happen too. And when bad things happen, we inevitably receive something good in return. Emerson reminds us there’s “no such thing as a free lunch!” except way more poetically and infinitely less depressing than late-stage capitalism usually makes everything sound.

The scales are always balancing. It might not be immediate or one-for-one (one failure doesn't guarantee one immediate success), but sometimes you're collecting failures like Pokémon cards, building up this apparently useless collection of embarrassments and disappointments, and then BAM — suddenly you get hit with a massive wave of wins that makes you feel like you accidentally stumbled into someone else's much more successful life and forgot to give it back.

This makes going through failures SO much more manageable because you know: Nothing lasts forever. The good stuff doesn't last forever, and the bad stuff doesn't last forever.

Are You Really Open to Receiving?

If we accept RWE’s perspective, it opens up an uncomfy line of questioning: If we're not putting ourselves in the position to fail, we're probably not actually open to truly receiving. We’re likely just open to receiving exactly what we want, when we want it, in the precise packaging our anxiety-riddled, control-obsessed, disaster-anticipating brains have predetermined is "safe" and won't require us to grow or change or do anything that makes us uncomfortable.

Think about it like this: You litcherally cannot expect to meet your soulmate while you're sitting on your couch in the same ratty sweatpants you've been wearing since the beginning of the pandemic, binge-watching reality TV shows about people with significantly more dramatic problems than yours, and hoping your person will just materialize at your front door like some kind of romantic Amazon Prime delivery.

You have to actually put yourself in the position to meet them, which means leaving your apartment, possibly interacting with other humans.

Same thing with opportunities, money, success — whatever you're saying you're "open to receiving."

If you're truly open to receiving more money, are you:

  • Changing how you run your business?

  • Updating your offers? (or are they still the same ones you created three years ago when you thought "authentic" meant "charging $22 for everything because 😇angel numbers😇")

  • Genuinely shifting your relationship with money, or are you still having a full-body panic attack every time you check your bank account and immediately closing the app like that will make the numbers change?

  • Preparing for the natural consequences that come with receiving more?

If you're open to receiving a TV opportunity, are you:

  • Willing to rearrange your life for filming?

  • Prepared for the attention you'll get?

  • Ready with systems for an influx of applications?

  • Clear on your messaging so the right people reach out?

Being open to receiving means being open to ALL the natural consequences — the good, the challenging, the unexpected.

Taking notes from the alchemists

Ancient alchemists believed you couldn't transmute lead into gold unless you were pure of heart.

You could have the correct formula, all the right equipment, the perfect laboratory setup, but if you were just trying to create gold because you wanted to be rich and buy a bigger house and flex on your enemies, it wouldn't work. The universe would basically be like "nice try, but your motivations are showing and they're not cute."

You had to do your inner work — your shadow work, your journaling, your questioning about purpose and humanity. You needed reverence for the mystery.

Only then could you create gold.

This is why we can't just practice failure tolerance as some kind of spiritual shortcut to get more stuff. If we're grasping and controlling and trying to manipulate outcomes from our small, anxious, definitely-overthinking-everything human minds, it doesn't work as well as when we surrender to the mystery and trust that our future selves — the ones who've done more therapy and read more books and had more awkward conversations — know better than our current selves who are probably just trying to avoid discomfort.

Time for some check-in questions

Some questions to sit with:

Where have you been trying to control outcomes in your life, and for what reason?

Are you truly putting yourself out there to receive, or are you only open to receiving certain things in a specific order?

What would happen if you put yourself in the position to receive—including receiving some "nos"? (Remember: receiving isn't all positive. If we're going to receive amazing gifts, we're also going to receive some losses, some disappointments, some plot twists that require us to completely recalibrate our expectations. That's the law of compensation, baby.)

Signs You're Ready to Test Your Failure Tolerance:

  • You feel healthy and stable (like you have room to play)

  • Things feel stagnant or stuck

  • You want to have more fun

  • You're lacking challenge in your life

  • You're wanting bigger opportunities to come through

  • What you've been asking for hasn't materialized yet

Your Challenge This Week

Test your failure tolerance! It doesn't have to be as cosmetically dramatic as bleaching your eyebrows (though honestly, I think you could pull it off better than I did, and that's not even a particularly high bar). Maybe it's:

  • Asking for something you've been avoiding asking for because you're convinced they'll say no

  • Trying a new look or approach that feels slightly outside your comfort zone

  • Putting yourself in a position where you might get rejected in a low-stakes way

  • Sharing something you've been keeping private because you're worried about what people will think

  • Applying for something you're not sure you're qualified for

  • Having a conversation you've been putting off

Remember: When you're consistently flexing your failure tolerance muscle, you stop thinking of these experiences as "failures." They become experiments that give you information. You become more elastic to the experience — it doesn't ruin your day or stop you in your tracks.

The goal isn't to avoid failure; it's to become so comfortable with the discomfort of potential failure that you can move through the world with more freedom and magnetism.

Want the ritual practice for transmuting failure into alchemical gold? It's available for Twelfth House Plus subscribers (you can get a 7-day free trial to check it out). The ritual is inspired by Emerson's essay on compensation and is honestly magical.

Also: The North Node, our private members community, opens at the end of June! We only open doors twice a year because we're not trying to be everything to everyone, and it's five years of this incredible jewel box of education, resources, and community for intuitive entrepreneurs and creative people who are tired of business advice that makes them feel like they need to become someone else to be successful.

This week we're diving deep into failure tolerance and going beyond the basic entrepreneurial "learn to handle rejection in sales!" version (though yes yes yes, obviously, send the scary email, make the ask, stop passive-aggressively hoping someone will discover your genius on Instagram).

We're talking about practicing increasing failure tolerance from a more creative, esoteric perspective. And why-oh-why would we want to do that? Well, increasing your failure tolerance is a type of nervous system practice.

It's not about becoming fearless or turning into some kind of risk-taking maniac. It's about expanding your capacity to hold discomfort, which literally makes you stickier to the things you want.

When you can handle the sensation of uncertainty, rejection, looking foolish, or being misunderstood, you stop unconsciously sabotaging yourself. You stop repelling opportunities because you're afraid of what might happen if you actually get what you want.

Because here's the thing: If you say you want to have $100k in your bank account, but your nervous system can't handle seeing $10k in your portfolio without completely freaking out, guess what you're going to unconsciously do everything in your power to avoid? Exactly.

This is somatic work disguised as creative practice. Every time you stretch your tolerance for the uncomfortable, you're teaching your nervous system that these sensations aren't actually life-threatening. That you can survive looking stupid. That failure isn't death — it's just information, it's just a turn, it's just another step in the ongoing experiment of being human.

With that, I wanted to give you some practical ways to flex your failure tolerance in ways that extend beyond traditional business. So, let’s get to it!

In this episode of The Twelfth House, I'm diving into the somatic elements of failure tolerance — what it is, why it matters, and how increasing your capacity to withstand discomfort can make you wildly more magnetic. (You can read about the whole failure tolerance series here)

When we're confronted with potential failure or rejection, most of us go into full-on panic mode. Our bodies literally think we're about to D-I-E. This leads to failure aversion, which might be keeping you stuck in a life that feels... fine, but not particularly exciting.

What is failure tolerance?

Failure tolerance is simply the capacity to withstand and recover from perceived rejection or failure. It's not about eliminating fear (which honestly feels impossible for my scaredy-cat self) — it's about sitting with the discomfort of "this might not work" and surviving it.

When we look at failure tolerance, we can identify three different states that you might find yourself in:

  • The Bravery Myth State: When you think failure tolerance means faking courage until you feel it. This approach might work for some people, but for many of us (hi!), it creates even MORE anxiety and nervous system dysregulation.

  • The Hyper-Safety State: When you've designed your entire life around avoiding failure. You stick to familiar routines, places, people, and work. Everything is safe, streamlined, and... a little bit boring. It’s also easy to fall into this relationship with failure tolerance when you’ve been designing for stability in your life.

  • The Magnetic State: When you can acknowledge your fears while expanding your capacity to withstand discomfort. You don't need to be brave — you just need to be able to survive the feeling of potential failure.

Signs your failure tolerance needs attention:

  • You feel "fine" but not excited about your life or business

  • You find yourself feeling mysteriously “stuck” or “blocked” — you know I don’t believe you’re ever blocked, but you know what I’m saying — even though things seem to be running perfectly well in your life otherwise

  • Your offerings haven't changed in ages because "they work" (but do they really work?)

  • You find yourself ordering the same food, going to the same places, hanging with the same people, in excess

  • You dismiss ideas as "impossible" before even exploring them

  • You catch yourself thinking "I can't ask for that" more than "I wonder if I could get that"

The nervous system of it all

When we face potential failure, our nervous system kicks into sympathetic mode (fight/flight/freeze). In this state:

  • Your attention narrows (literally — your vision constricts)

  • Your body gets rigid

  • Your cortisol and adrenaline spike

  • Your creativity, adaptability, and fine motor learning shut down completely. Boo! Hiss!

But in parasympathetic mode:

  • Your prefrontal cortex activates, boosting learning and planning

  • Your movements become more fluid and flexible

  • Your brain forms new connections more easily

  • Your creativity and intuition flow

See the problem? When we're failure-averse, we're physiologically cutting ourselves off from the very creativity we need to evolve. It's like trying to brainstorm innovative ideas while a tiger is chasing you. NOT HAPPENING.

The Fettuccine Alfredo Test

Here's my absurdly specific but clarifying example. You're at Ruby's Diner. What you really want is fettuccine Alfredo with peas.

If you're failure-averse, your thought process is: "They don't have that here. I guess I'll order something I don't really want."

If you're failure-tolerant, you might:

  • Ask if they can make it anyway?

  • Suggest going to a different restaurant?

  • See if you can order it for delivery while everyone else eats Ruby's?

  • Propose meeting at home later with everyone's preferred food?

The failure-averse person never considers these options because they've decided only the menu in front of them exists. (This extends WAY beyond pasta, promise.)

Practical ways to increase your failure tolerance:

  • Move sloooooowly. When you feel that fear response kicking in, pause. Notice the physical sensations. "My shoulders are up to my ears. My stomach is dropping. My toes are clenched."

  • Name your thoughts. "I'm having the thought that I'll be rejected." Not "I'll be rejected," but "I'm having the thought that I'll be rejected." This creates a tiny but crucial space between you and the fear.

  • Stay with the discomfort a bit longer. Your body believes you'll die if this feeling continues. By staying with it for 30 seconds, a minute, two minutes, you're showing your nervous system: "See? Still alive."

  • Expand your awareness. Release your shoulders and jaw. Take a breath. Let your peripheral vision open up. This signals to your body that you're not in immediate danger.

Remember: Your failure tolerance will fluctuate. It's not a linear progression from "scaredy cat" to "fearless warrior." (Thank god, because I'd fail that test immediately.) Some days you'll feel braver than others based on your overall sense of safety, health, and what else is happening in your life.

The most fascinating paradox? Many of us are most failure-tolerant when we hit an energetic void, because we literally have less to lose. As we become more successful, we often become MORE failure-averse. We have more to protect. More to lose. The stakes feel higher.

The magnetism superpower

When you increase your failure tolerance, you energy becomes contagious and uber attractive. Not because you're fearless, but because you're willing to exist alongside your fear without being totally controlled by it.

People who are highly failure-tolerant have that quality where everyone turns when they enter a room. Not because they're loud or conventionally charismatic, but because there's a gravitational pull to their energy. They're so purely themselves that you can't help but be drawn in.

Think about it: what's more magnetic than someone who can handle hearing "no" without crumbling? Who can ask for what they really want? Who can explore possibilities that others dismiss as impossible?

Your homework (if you choose to accept it):

  • Notice one place where you're being failure-averse today

  • Practice the "slow down" technique when you feel that fear rising

  • Ask for ONE thing you've been avoiding asking for (start small!)

  • Track your physical responses to potential rejection

And if you want to dive deeper into failure tolerance, join us in The North Node, our private membership community, where we've been running the Failure Tolerance Challenge for four years with WILD results. Members have launched businesses, created products, written books, gone on life-changing dates — all by increasing their capacity to withstand the discomfort of potential failure.

Want more? Check out our paid subscriber episode where KP and I share our "found objects" for failure tolerance — all the inspirations that sparked this series. We even talk about our own failure tolerance journeys and how we've personally used these techniques.

Oh, and tell me in the comments: What's your relationship with failure tolerance? On a scale from 1 to 10 — 1 being most failure averse, 10 being most failure tolerant — where do you land?

In this episode of The Twelfth House, we’re exploring our concept of Void States and how running experiments can help you break free from feeling stuck, uninspired, or overwhelmed.

There are three different void states that we might experience when wondering "what the hell should I do next?":

  • The Uninspired State: Where you don't know enough about yourself or the world to know what you want to do next. This state can benefit from tools like subconscious audits, meaning-making systems like astrology and human design, and shadow work.

  • The Burnt Out and Overwhelmed State: When you've put in effort but aren't getting recognition or satisfaction in return, leading to burnout and a lack of clarity on next steps.

  • The Overwhelmed By Possibility State: When you have too many options and ideas but don't know where to start, experiencing analysis paralysis and fear of making the wrong choice.

These void states are natural parts of life's cycles — we’ll all go through all of them many times throughout our lives. But that doesn’t make a Void State, like, a super fun time.

Anyway, running experiments in your life or business — essentially creating pattern interruptions that introduce new stimuli and change the way you experience your environment — can absolutely be a tool to getting you unstuck if you’re having a hard time getting out of a void state.

Experiments aren't about success or failure, but about introducing new information into your system to help you get unstuck and see the world differently.

Signs you're ready for an experiment:

  • Feeling bored/stuck/overwhelmed

  • The outcomes you're getting feel like a season of Real Housewives that should've ended three episodes ago

  • You catch yourself saying "I should..." more than "I want..." (giving very much corporate girlboss energy when you're trying to be intuitive business queen)

I share my personal approach to experiments and how to reassess when the experiment starts to feel oppressive (boooo) rather than illuminating (yaaaaay).

Some experiments that you can try for yourself:

  • Sell something in your business every day for 30 days

  • Change how you present yourself daily for a month

  • Do something surprising or uncomfortable daily

  • Test your failure tolerance by putting yourself in the position to get rejected on the daily.

Oh, and we just opened the doors to "Ruthless Clarity," an eight-week email course designed to help people clear overwhelm and get clarity on their motivations, priorities, and internal compass. You can learn more here — we start on May 11th!

This week I'm diving into that frustrating feeling we all know too well: doing, honestly, way too much while getting absolutely nowhere. (Cue that Great British Bake Off meme of the woman frantically running around the kitchen accomplishing precisely nothing.)

I explore the concept of "ruthless clarity" — that magical state where you actually know what you're doing and why — versus what I call "chicken without a head syndrome" where you're making reels! Guest starring on podcasts! Starting seventeen newsletters! And still feeling like you're treading water.

You'll hear about Mozart's creative process (yes, really), the difference between panic-driven busy work and following what I call "cosmic doorknobs" — those delicious breadcrumb trails the universe leaves for you when you're quiet enough to notice them.

I also take an unexpected side road into my habit of blocking annoying influencers (life's too short lol), and why forcing all your interests to fit under your "personal brand" is the fastest way to suffocate your actual genius.

Whether you're currently drowning in shiny object syndrome or just wondering why your fifteen simultaneous projects aren't yielding results, this episode offers a witchy middle path: do less, but with ruthless clarity.

Thoughts on your own cosmic doorknobs? Drop them in the comments!

Nuance? On the internet????

Sparked by Chappell Roan's viral "parenting is hell" discourse, this week I throw our editorial calendar into the abyss to tackle something I've been totally allergic to discussing publicly: my experience with parenthood.

You'll hear why I always dodge the parent-content pipeline, why my expectations for motherhood were subterranean (spoiler: expecting the worst is apparently my superpower), and why having a baby at 33 instead of 25 might be the ultimate "choose your hard" situation.

My experience of parenting has been like, the opposite of hell… and boy-howdy do I totally empathize with why Chappell’s twenty-something friends might find parenting to be Les Miserables. Because I’m pretty sure if I’d had a kid any time before when I did, I would have felt that way, too.

Whether you're child-free and thriving, halfway through freezing your eggs, or currently nap trapped under a somewhat sweaty but 100% adorable toddler, this episode tries to offer the rare middle ground in today's polarized parenthood discourse.

No toxic positivity, no doom-scrolling negativity — just one witch's take on how motherhood unexpectedly activated parts of myself I didn't know existed, and perhaps some ideas to think about if you’re anything like how I was pre-baby when I was still trying to decide whether to take a gamble on a new (volatile) experience like having a child or if I should just enjoy a child-free existence.

Curious to hear your thoughts in the chat!

In an era where aesthetically curating the idea of doing something has become our collective toxic trait (I see you, productivity people with your untouched Notion pages), it's time for a lil’ reality check. A gentle call in. A firm, kind redirect as we emerge from the eclipse portal and catapult ourselves into Q2.

Project Planning: The Unsexy Secret to Making Cool Stuff Happen

Here's where I, Michelle Pellizzon — she of witchcraft discussions and intuitive business sermons — confess my deeply un-magickal love affair with something that has my tarot cards collectively rolling their eyes: project planning. Not ironically, not subversively, but in a "this literally saved my creative life" way that sometimes makes me question if I've finally sold out to Big Productivity. (I haven't! Probably!)

The Magic-to-Mundane Pipeline

Project planning is definitely something, but like, ✨channeling spirit ✨ it is not. There's nothing transcendent about a project plan, at least to me. Yet those moments that feel like "literally touching God"— when creativity flows through you like some cosmic dictation service — don't appear simply when I light the right candle. They happen when I've laid the groundwork by doing the deeply unsexy work of planning.

I work with literal psychics and mediums — people who can, like, text the dead — and even THEY need project plans. Honestly, everyone can use a project plan. The game-changer for most people is realizing planning isn't constraining creativity but creating space for it.

Join My Planning Cult (We Have Templates)

I'm teaching a project planning class on March 23rd, 2025. If you're in the North Node, it's included (congrats, savvy investor!); if not, it's still affordable because I genuinely believe this stuff changes lives.

Listen to the full episode to hear how I've somehow made project planning sound revolutionary rather than like the organizational equivalent of eating your vegetables. Because sometimes the most rebellious thing you can do as a creative is actually finish what you start.

OK, so with that, let’s get into today’s case study — a project plan for putting together an Creative Writing MFA application that’s due at the end of March.

MFA Application Project Plan

This week, we’re talking about the difference between being seen and being SEEN.

The uncomfortable truth? People don't notice you because you're doing most things exactly the same way as everyone else.

We observe what seems to be working for others, frantically study their "method," and replicate it with the precision of someone following IKEA instructions — except we're building our entire lives and businesses this way.

And, listen, this isn't necessarily a bad strategy.

But if you want people to see you, to acknowledge you, to recognize you… you’ve gotta stand out. And if you’re just going with the flow, doing what everyone else does without asking why — welp, yah just blend into the crowd.

Standing Out Without Being That Person

The alternative isn't wearing neon jumpsuits or speaking exclusively in haikus.

The secret is embarrassingly simple: be more conscious.

Instead of blindly following others, pause and ask:

  • Why am I doing this thing this way?

  • What's my actual perspective?

  • Is this working for ME?

It's about switching from automatic to intentional thinking in a world where most people are running on autopilot.

Project Planning: The Unsexy Secret Weapon

The most practical takeaway sounds about as exciting as organizing your sock drawer: project planning.

Project planning forces you to ask:

  • Why am I doing this?

  • What do I actually want to happen?

  • What's my strategy?

  • What's the actual first step?

These questions might seem basic, but most of us skip them entirely, jumping straight to execution mode following the same tired blueprint everyone else uses.

The Serious Truth Bomb

Remember: "No one takes you more seriously than you take yourself."

If you're approaching your work with "aw shucks, who am I to do this thing?" energy, you're telling everyone else not to take you seriously either.

Taking yourself seriously doesn't mean acting like Adrien Brody accepting the Oscar. It means recognizing your power and not wasting it. The bottom line: To be seen, you need to do things differently.

What if you didn’t have to convince anyone to buy from you? What if your ideal clients already knew they needed your work — and were ready to say yes before you even made an offer? That’s the magic of a diagnostic.

In this episode, Michelle Pellizzon Lipsitz unpacks why diagnostics — things like quizzes, intake forms, and archetypes — are the secret weapon behind businesses that sell with ease. Instead of chasing clients or trying to “sell harder,” diagnostics help people self-identify their needs, understand their pain points, and see exactly how your work fits into their journey.

In This Episode We Cover:

📊 What diagnostics actually are — and why they’re one of the most underrated tools in business

🛠 How to build a diagnostic system that classifies clients into archetypes and guides them to the perfect solution

You're probably wondering how we ended up here, doom-scrolling at 3am and feeling like our businesses live and die by the whims of an algorithm created by tech bros who definitely think their morning cold plunge routine earns them moral superiority. “Can you even have a business without social media?”

Well, yeah. Of course. You just might have to get scrappy with it.

On today’s episode, KP Pilley and Michelle Pellizzon Lipsitz unpack the common urge to boycott social media platforms—especially when they feel overwhelming, exhausting, or just not fun anymore.

But before you ghost Instagram, they explain why completely abandoning these spaces might not be the best move. Instead, they offer ways to use social media intentionally, without letting it consume all your energy.

Marketing IRL: Connecting with Your Audience Outside the Internet

Remember life before we all became digital avatars of ourselves? Turns out, gasp, marketing existed! And it worked! Some might even say it worked better, back when we weren't all competing with an endless stream of AI-generated content about manifesting abundance through the power of positive thinking.

KP breaks down some delightfully analog ways to reach your people:

📌 Events that actually build community (and how to make them accessible, engaging, and worth showing up for)

📌 Old-school marketing that still works—flyers, direct mail, and real-life conversations

📌 Finding your audience where they already are, instead of trying to force engagement online

📌 Branded giveaways and creative guerrilla marketing (because who doesn’t love free stuff?)

he Power of Your Network (No, Not Your Wi-Fi)

Here's some cosmic truth: word-of-mouth marketing is basically manifestation in action. KP gets into the magic of referrals and those beautiful loose connections – you know, the people who've been quietly watching your journey but haven't felt compelled to drop "queen 👑" on every single post.

The Bottom Line (Because We Still Live in Late Stage Capitalism)

Marketing shouldn't feel like a root canal without anesthesia. If you're not having at least a little fun with it, you're doing it wrong. This episode is your permission slip to break free from the algorithm anxiety and create a marketing strategy that feels as good as finding out your crush's birth chart is perfectly compatible with yours.

Ready to make marketing feel less like a chore and more like casting spells? This episode is your grimoire for mixing digital and analog magic in ways that actually work. No "just be authentic!" toxic positivity required.

In this chaos carnival we call life, where doom-scrolling is an Olympic sport and debilitating anxiety comes free with every social media subscription, here's a wild thought: maybe “trust yourself” isn't just a cute Pinterest quote — it's a battle cry. (Too dramatic? idc!)

In this episode, intuitive medium and inner child whisperer Natasha Levinger tells all about developing your psychic abilities — not as some woo-woo skill that requires you to rename yourself Starflower and move to Sedona, but as something that's literally just part of having a human meat suit. Intuition isn't just vibes – it's information, baby.

Intuition, Somatics, and the Art of Knowing Yourself

Natasha shares the practical, embodied techniques she uses to stay centered and in control of her own energy—especially in triggering or overwhelming situations. From working with the inner child to closing the aura and separating from unhelpful energetic influences, she explains how to navigate life (and the unseen) with confidence.

They also explore the fascinating link between physical posture, embodied cognition, and intuitive strength — because how you hold yourself physically shapes how you hold yourself energetically. Your body is a tuning fork for psychic information, and understanding this connection is a game-changer.

Boundaries, Fear, and Why Humor is a Psychic Survival Skill

One of the biggest myths about intuition? That it makes you vulnerable. The truth is, strong intuition requires strong boundaries. Natasha explains how to set energetic boundaries (yes, even with spirits) and why maintaining control of your own energy field is essential—especially when dealing with fear, anxiety, or external chaos.

The Biggest Mistake People Make When Developing Intuition—and How to Avoid It

Developing psychic and intuitive abilities isn’t about forcing anything; it’s about tuning in to what’s already there. Natasha shares the common pitfalls that hold people back and how to approach intuitive development in a way that’s natural, accessible, and (dare we say it?) even fun.

If you've ever felt the call of the unseen (or just want to know why you always know who's calling before you check your phone), this episode is your permission slip to trust that weird feeling in your gut that's always right about your ex's new relationship.

Welcome back to The Twelfth House Podcast!

Let me give you the sparkly SparkNotes version of this delightfully chaotic guide to understanding your own personal drama factory (aka your subconscious).

This is essentially a 11-day deep dive into why you keep self-sabotaging like it's your job — except plot twist! You're not actually sabotaging yourself at all. gasp

Key revelations that hit harder than your 2am existential fears:

  • Your patterns aren't trying to ruin your life — they're just overprotective helicopter parents doing their best impression of "helping"

  • Those "blocks" you keep hitting? They're actually just your system downloading updates at the worst possible moment (like an iPhone, but make it psychological)

  • Jealousy isn't toxic, it's your subconscious playing hot-or-cold with your actual desires (turns out hate-following people on Instagram is actually productive, who knew?)

  • Your fear isn't your enemy — it's more like that friend who's a little extra about your safety. Yes, they're dramatic, but their heart's in the right place.

The Subconscious Audit guide walks through:

  • Pattern detection (aka "why do I keep doing That Thing™️")

  • Fear investigation (spoiler: it's usually protecting something valuable)

  • Tiny experiments (because nobody needs an Eat Pray Love moment to make changes)

  • Support systems (turns out willpower alone is giving very much "thoughts and prayers" energy)

Bottom line: You're not broken, you're just running a particularly complex operating system that occasionally needs a reboot. Like Windows Vista, but make it personal growth.

The goal isn't to become some enlightened being who floats above their patterns — it's about becoming fluent in your own chaos language. Think of it as learning to speak "fear" as a second language, complete with regional dialects and slang.

A quick aside before we dive in: The Eaton and Palisades Fires are far from through. If you can offer support to those displaced and impacted by the fires, it would mean so much to us at Holisticism.

I owed you an update — in June 2024 I recorded an episode about my Hermit Experiment, in which I decided to lean ALL THE WAY into my Matrix of Destiny Complex Karma number (9, The Hermit) for six months.

Well, the witch is back. And I’m updating you on the good, the bad, the girl-so-confusing of this Complex Karma exploration.

Key developments in my villain-to-crunchy-recluse arc:

  • Stopped teaching huge public courses until 2025 (terrifying but surprisingly didn't tank revenue???)

  • Went DEEP with 1:1 client work (the vibes? immaculate. If you’re one of my clients and you’re reading this now please know how obsessed with you I am)

  • Started making truly awful pottery at midnight… like a proper forest witch

  • Published a book about copywriting that didn't flop

  • Generally tried to embrace more BTS energy and less "available on The Internet 24/7" energy

There were plot twists nobody saw coming, which you’ll have to listen to the episode to hear more about. This is either proof that the hermit archetype knows what she's doing, or that the universe rewards you when you finally stop pretending you want to be an extrovert.

Real talk though — part of this hermit exploration came from a pretty raw place. I wasn’t sure how it was gonna go… for a minute, I even wondered if I was making a rash decision in response to some tough stuff that was happening in my personal life. Was I leaning too much into “magical thinking” acting on a hunch about this whole Hermit thing, or was I following the clues…

Would I recommend experimenting with your Complex Karma number? Absolutely. Will it solve all your problems? Absolutely not. But it might help you realize you don't actually have to teach another Notion course if you don't want to. And isn't that worth something?

Hi! The doors to The North Node are open until Monday, January 6th. If you want to learn more about what we do in there, you can read more here.

Friends, Romans, chronically online countrypeople — it's 2024 and your girl has spent two years marinating in what I'm calling The Void™ (patent pending, merchandise coming never). After being forced to abandon my most reliable personality trait — working at the speed of light and launching products faster than Zara changes aesthetics — I've emerged with some thoughts about business, creativity, and why sometimes doing absolutely nothing is actually... everything?

Picture it: Sicily, 1922. Just kidding. Picture it: me, a non-linear brain with one setting — VERY FAST — being forced by the universe to... slow... down. The audacity. The horror. The absolute violation of my Aries midheaven rights!

Key revelations from my extended stay in The Void (or: what happens when an ADHD entrepreneur is forced to practice patience)…

There are THREE flavors of void-states (like spiritual Ben & Jerry's, but with fewer calories and more existential crises):

Ever wonder how your astrology app finds time to send you push notifications about approaching doom while you can't find 5 minutes to eat lunch? (Petition to remove Co—Star from the App Store)

In this episode of The Twelfth House, Michelle Pellizzon (me! hi!) confesses to being a recovering time scarcity girlboss and breaks down how she went from "scheduling bathroom breaks" to "running a business in 4 days a week without having a nervous breakdown."

If you're reading this while simultaneously attending a Zoom meeting, answering Slack messages, and planning your escape to a meditation retreat in Bali, this episode is specifically for you.

Episode Highlights

First, we dive into the exact moment I realized I was treating my schedule like a game of Tetris designed by Satan himself. Spoiler alert: it involved crying in a Whole Foods parking lot because I scheduled three meetings in three different places in one hour. Past Me was clearly going through something.

Then we get into the juicy stuff:

  • How I structure my week so I actually have time to shower, make money, and generally enjoy my life (revolutionary, I know)

  • The uncomfortable truth about why you keep booking meetings you hate

  • How to identify what's actually important versus what your anxiety says is important

  • The art of saying "no" without having to fake a family emergency

Plus, I share some spicy takes from the Time Witch's Starter Spellbook, which you can snag here →

If you've ever wished you could manipulate the space-time continuum just to get through your to-do list, consider this episode your permission slip to stop treating productivity like a blood sport. Time isn't the enemy — but that 2-hour standing weekly meeting that could have been an email definitely is.

Tune in for practical magic that’ll help you feel like you’ve actually got your life together without having an existential crisis every Sunday night." ✨

In this episode of our backstage chronicles, Michelle and Katie dive deep into the art of resolution remixing — essentially what would happen if your type-A planning tendencies got into a heated debate with your intuition and somehow… they both won.

Instead of SMART goals (which, let's be honest, mostly just make us feel dumb), Katie proposes something revolutionary: actually enjoying the process of personal growth. Shocking and brave!

KD and MP excavate the eternal tension between traditional goal-setting (hello, spreadsheet my old friend) and the more intuitive "vibes-based" approach to life planning. Come for the goal-setting discourse, stay for the unexpected revelation that maybe we're all just taking ourselves a bit too seriously.

Here’s What’s On the Agenda:

🎧 Doomscroll – The duo breaks down the Matty Healy episode, exploring his controversial persona, why he’s such a polarizing figure, and what we can learn from the drama.

🌀 Remixing Resolutions – Forget rigid New Year’s resolutions. Katie introduces her fresh, feel-good approach to goal-setting by focusing on what’s working, setting big-picture aspirations, and tuning into emotional goals.

🤔 Feelings vs. SMART Goals – Why chasing feelings and experiences can be so much more rewarding than sticking to traditional, structured goals.

💡 Navigating Jealousy & Curveballs – Michelle and Katie talk about turning jealousy into clarity, identifying what you truly want, and staying resilient when life doesn’t go as planned.

💫 The Power of Curiosity – Life is all about experimentation and play. Discover how curiosity and a willingness to try new things can keep you motivated and inspired.

Join our host, Michelle Pellizzon, in another episode of Friday Philosophies as she dives into the "bike shedding effect," where we often get caught up in trivial details instead of focusing on what really matters. Michelle will share practical tips to help you stay on track and prioritize your core goals. Tune in to discover how to streamline your priorities and boost your productivity!

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • The "bike shedding effect" is the tendency for people to disproportionately focus on minor details while neglecting more important and complex issues.
  • The bike shedding effect can be driven by factors such as high cognitive load, procrastination, perfectionism, and information overload.
  • Overcoming the bike shedding effect can be achieved by prioritizing tasks based on personal values and goals, systematizing to reduce cognitive load, and delegating trivial tasks.
  • For creatives and entrepreneurs, it's important to trust their intuition and vision, even if others don't understand, to avoid getting caught up in minor details.
  • Maintaining productivity and avoiding burnout in creative projects can be achieved by setting clear goals and balancing attention to details with action on the bigger picture.

Join our host Michelle Pellizzon and Holisticism's social media manager, KP, as they dive into the current state of platforms like Instagram, exploring how it affects small businesses and creatives. They discuss the frustrations of dealing with algorithms, the nature of viral content, smart marketing strategies, and why staying true to yourself online is so important.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Instagram's algorithm prioritizes shallow engagement, making it difficult for businesses to organically reach their existing followers.
  • Creators are frustrated by the restricted visibility and narrow algorithms on platforms like Instagram.
  • Promoting one's authentic self and interests, rather than merely a brand, is seeing more success on platforms like Threads.
  • Small businesses can effectively use numerous creative marketing strategies beyond social media to promote their work.

In this episode of The 12th House, host Michelle Pellizzon dives into the trend of "fake money transparency" online and why it's so effective at attracting an audience. She discusses coming across misleading financial marketing that uses flashy income claims to sell unrelated products.

Michelle breaks down why vague or unrealistic portrayals of wealth can be alluring, from satisfying our curiosity about money to wanting to believe success is one simple step away. She also explains how results shown may differ greatly from typical outcomes for those just starting out.

KEYNOTES:

  • People crave grounding around money and want to compare ourselves to others' financial situations.
  • To some, success is just one simple step away and following someone else's formula will lead to the same results — how true is this?
  • We only see the flashy outcomes portrayed without knowing the full process or values behind how money was actually made.
  • Not having a clear definition of "enough" money for ourselves means we are susceptible to promises of always getting more.
  • Claims of high income online are often vague, unrealistic, or don't provide full transparency on expenses, profits, or typical results for beginners.

Welcome to another episode of Friday Philosophies, this week Michelle is joined by the show’s new podcast producer, Katie Dalebout. In this episode, they delve into the intriguing concept known as the Semmelweis Effect. Named after Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis, who faced disbelief and ridicule for his groundbreaking discovery, about hand-washing, this effect explores our human tendency to reject new evidence that contradicts established beliefs, especially when it's uncomfortable or challenges our long help believe.

We even get onto more historical anecdotes that relate to this effect, such as Abraham Lincoln's eerie encounter, as well as how the Semmelweis Effect has played out in various aspects of our lives. From medicine to global warming denial and even business strategies, we explore how this phenomenon impacts decision-making and personal growth.

Key Takeaways:

  • Embrace the discomfort of challenging your established beliefs; it can lead to personal growth and new opportunities.
  • Recognize the power of being open to different perspectives and evidence that may contradict your current view.
  • Avoid the extremes of unwavering belief or complete skepticism; strive for a balanced, flexible approach.
  • Be curious and question the why behind your beliefs, especially when cognitive distortions like black-and-white thinking come into play.
  • Be open to new information even when it flips how you were doing it before on its head and is more challenging or even annoying to begin with

Join Michelle for a rare solo episode of Friday Philosophies, where she breaks down the Self-Reference Effect and how you can use this cognitive phenomenon to enhance your memory and information retention.

She explains how making information personal significantly boosts our ability to retain it. Using various theories, including elaborative encoding and emotional significance, she illustrates how the self-reference effect works and how you can use it. She gives practical tips for how you can apply it to actually integrate the vast amount of information we encounter daily.

It's a deep dive into the complexities of the human brain and how to leverage it to turbocharge memory. Tune in to unlock your mind’s potential to elevate your learning capabilities. If you're a lifelong learner, a creative thinker, or curious about how your brain works, this one's for you!

Key Takeaways

  • The Self-Reference Effect is a cognitive phenomenon where information related to oneself is easier to remember.
  • Improving working memory can be essential for lifelong learners, especially non-linear squiggly brained folks.
  • Using Elaborative Encoding or linking information to our own experiences allows us to process it more deeply. Actively connect new information to your existing knowledge.
  • Organization Matters: Tagging and categorizing information aids memory and recall, transforming your mind into a second brain for storing knowledge.
  • Personal data often carries emotional weight, and emotional content is more memorable. Engaging emotionally with material can improve retention.
  • Asking reflective questions and connecting new information to what we already know enhances memory.

Join us for another episode of Friday Philosophies, as hosts Michelle and Wallis navigate big seasons of change through the lens of Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG), a sister theory to the well-known PTSD.

In this energetic and thoughtful back-and-forth, Michelle and Wallis share their personal experiences — breakups, work heartbreaks, and immigration struggles. They explore building resilience and fostering a "growth mindset" through the unique perspective of PTG.

Post-Traumatic Growth isn't about 'bouncing back', it's about 'bouncing forward'— following a path that comes from questioning our core beliefs, appreciating the little things, and persevering through it all.

Key Takeaways

  • Delve into the Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) and its five subscales - New Possibilities, Relating to Others, Personal Strength, Spiritual Change, and Appreciation of Life
  • Why traumatic events spark our search for spiritual meaning and the integral role of spirituality in PTG
  • Learn to build resilience, not through sheer bravery, but by taking small, consistent steps each day
  • Discover practical ways to develop and strengthen your "growth mindset" muscle that don’t require a complete overhaul of your life

In today's Friday Philosophy episode, Michelle and Wallis explore the enchanting framework of the Disney strategy, a method to transform your dreams into reality.

Our exploration of this framework guides us through the three integral stages of dreaming, realizing, and critiquing, illustrating their importance in launching products, breathing life into creative aspirations, founding visionary businesses, or actualizing whatever your heart yearns for.

These steps aren't merely another project management technique; they serve as an alchemical process that transmutes your grandest dreams into tangible reality.

Key takeaways from this episode:

  • Embodying the role of the dreamer and understanding the crucial timing of when to share your dreams or protect them closely
  • Embracing the realist within you, mitigating the critic's influence, and ensuring the dreamer is unhindered in their imaginings
  • Understanding the role of the critic as a balancing force that grounds both the dreamer and the realist and facilitates the refinement of a dream into a polished, tangible goal
  • Learning to embody the critic without suppressing the dreamer's spirit or obstructing the realist's practicality

Welcome Friday Philosophies where we delve into various mental models, examine our favorite frameworks, and reflect on the creative practices and rituals of creatives we admire.

This week, we're delving into the concept of Essentialism. Far from your standard self-help guide, it urges us to recognize the finite nature of our time on earth, and inspires us to spend it with integrity.

In this episode, we'll unpack the foundational principles of Essentialism, focusing on what it means to safeguard our most valuable asset — ourselves.

Key takeaways:

  • Learn to identify the "leads" in our day-to-day lives as cues to cultivate an Essentialist lifestyle
  • How to exercise your "no" muscle to commit firmly, resolutely, and respectfully to your most significant "Yes's"
  • The concept behind, "you can do anything, but can't do everything, all at once"
  • Why we challenge the status quo of the Non-Essentialist life, which spreads our efforts too thin
  • How to trade popularity for respect for more fulfillment

Join us for this exploration into Essentialism, as we strive for a more focused, meaningful, and purposeful life.

Welcome to another Friday Philosophy episode where we consider a different mental model, investigate our favorite frameworks, and muse on the creative habits and rituals of people we admire.

Today we’re digging into an esoteric philosophy called, Via Negativa.

We'll be looking at this framework and sharing how we use it to improve our relationship with time, how we discern our highest priorities, and how to avoid burn out.

Key take aways:

  • How to use the theory of Via Negativa to abate burn out, overwhelm, and discern our most pressing priorities
  • The power of subtracting vs. adding into several areas of our lives when thinking about our future visions
  • How to conserve your energy by asking better questions like, “what's blocking my current perspective that I might be able to subtract?”
  • How this mental model can help reduce “grasping energy”

Welcome to another Friday Philosophy episode where we consider a different mental model, investigate our favorite frameworks, and muse on the creative habits and rituals of people we admire.

If you missed it, catch up on pt. 1 of our 13 Rules for Squiggly Brained Witches (pt.1) here.

Today is part two of this series where we’ll be sharing rules 8-13 and how we came up with them as defining principles which have transformed how we engage with our sacred work.

In this episode, we explore rules 8-13 ...

  1. MAKE PARADOXICAL MOVES. A PARADOXICAL MOVE IS SIMPLY A RADICAL CHANGE IN PERSPECTIVE

  2. YOU CAN DO ANYTHING BUT YOU CAN'T DO EVERYTHING (RIGHT NOW). HOW YOU SPEND YOUR TIME TELLS YOU A LOT ABOUT WHAT YOUR PRIORITIES ARE. YOUR ACTIONS ILLUMINATE YOUR IDENTITY.

  3. ACCEPT THE QUEST, TRUST THE JOURNEY, EMBODY THE ARCHETYPE. DON'T FUTURE TRIP OR GET LOST IN SUFFERING.

  4. QUESTION YOUR BOUNDARIES, PERCEIVED AND IMAGINED.

  5. WHENEVER POSSIBLE, CREATE AN ELEVEN-STAR EXPERIENCE. FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR PEOPLE. (IT’S MORE FUN TO HAVE FUN. CHOOSE THE BETTER STORY.)

  6. RADICALLY COMMIT TO THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE. ASCENSION IS OVERRATED

Welcome to another edition of Friday Philosophies!

Each Friday we consider a different mental model, investigate our favorite frameworks, and talk about the creative habits and rituals of people we admire.

Today is part one of a two-part series, where we’ll be sharing the manifesto and principles we created and try to live by as a team.

What we mean by manifesto is our 13 Rules for Squiggly Brained Witches.

In this episode, we explore …

  • The first seven fundamental principles that have transformed how we navigate working together, growing the business, maintaining a dialogue with our community, and actualizing through our work

Part One of Our 3 Rules for Squiggly Brained Witches (1-7)

1. SCRAPPINESS IS NEXT TO WITCHINESS.
2. BE INTENTIONAL WITH YOUR ENERGY. EVERYTHING HAS A SEASON. ZERO REDUNDANCIES, ZERO WASTE.
3. WHEN IN DOUBT, SLEEP ON IT. LET IT BREW.
4. CHANGING YOUR MIND ISN’T FLAKEY.
5. MAKE IT EASY FOR PEOPLE TO SAY YES.
6. HINT: OPTIMISTIC SKEPTICISM. TRY ANYTHING TWICE WITH ZERO EXPECTATIONS.
7. EVERYTHING IS NEUTRAL INFORMATION. YOU GET TO CHOOSE WHAT TO DO WITH IT AND WHAT IT MEANS. REMAIN OPEN TO FEEDBACK
  • Whether explicitly defined or not, our manifestos, shape our personal beliefs and hold a great deal of power in shaping how we live out our day-today lives, and therefore our dreams
  • We discuss how we came to define each rule, and how we live out these principles as we work together as a team, and pursue our scared work

Welcome to our Friday Philosophy episode where we muse on a new mental model, explore our favorite frameworks, and discuss the unique habits and rituals of creatives and entrepreneurs we admire.

Ever feel like you're stuck in a never-ending loop without making progress on things that really matter to you?

Sometimes, we mistakenly believe that putting in tons of effort will magically lead to the outcomes we want. Yet often, it’s 20% of our actions that generate 80% of what we’re after.

That's why this week, we're delving into the Pareto Principle, also known as the 80/20 rule to show you how this framework may alleviate burn out in unsuspecting ways.

Key takeaways from today’s episode:

  • Learn how to apply this rule to your emotional well-being, your relationships, creating a capsule wardrobe, and many more
  • An alternative way to think about expending your energy and energetic wave, and spend more time on what brings you joy

How might you apply this rule in other areas of your life? We’d love to hear from you 🙂 Let us know and ⁠⁠⁠⁠send us a DM on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠send us a note here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

Are you interested in living a more Zen, super-duper-chill, relaxed way of life which celebrates imperfections, change as a constant, and a hella cool aesthetic? Um, same!

Every Friday, we discuss mental models, new frameworks, and creative habits and rituals to improve our lives.

This week we’re taking a peek at the often quoted aesthetic philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, a centuries-old Japanese concept that embraces imperfection, transience, and simplicity.

We trace the roots of Wabi-Sabi back to Zen Buddhism, the humble tea ceremony, and follow its evolution via Leonard Koren’s seminal work “⁠Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers⁠,” and how to apply this philosophy to your several areas of your life.

Covered in this episode

  • The foundational tenets of Wabi-Sabi, from its metaphysical concept of the universe, to the spiritual values of accepting the inevitable and appreciation of life’s imperfections

Are you curious about exploring your growth edge, improving your connection with your community, or up-leveling a new aspect of your personal life?

We gotchu 😊

In this last episode of our series on copywriting, we’re diving into a concept that at Holisticism we love to call “Growth Edging”.

Drawing from our course material in The North Node and insights from our intuitive business community, Michelle unravels the idea of the growth edge and discusses how to approach and navigate these boundaries with grace and courage.

Explored in this episode:

  • The dynamic of consuming and being consumed in business and how embracing love and connection allows us to better serve others
  • What your growth edge has to do with exponential change in your life, business, and copywriting
  • The 7 frames of interesting writing and what they have to do with pursuing our sacred Work
  • Strategies to reframe your fear of showing up and sharing your work to expand your growth edge
  • Understanding why AI-driven copywriting tools will fall short of capturing your unique POV, and how to create your most interesting, passionate, and inspired work

What is your take on growth edging? Where are you excited to up-level? Let us know and ⁠send us a DM on Instagram⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠send us a note here⁠⁠! We’d love to hear from you <3

Sometimes we love / hate a hack. But the evergreen hack that just doesn’t quit is copywriting. That’s right, we said it! Although copywriting doesn't always feel sexy or magical, copywriting is not only spell casting, but a surefire way to get what you want.

In this episode, hosts Michelle and Wallis explore embodying the mindset of “everything is copy” — a phrase coined by the writer and filmmaker Nora Ephron, and how adopting this mindset can help you self-actualize via this empowering practice.

In this episode, we cover:

  • The unsuspecting moments when your writing may positively alter the trajectory of your life
  • How adopting an “everything is copy” mindset can help writers, artists, and creatives create interesting and relatable content by using personal experiences, humor, and incorporating your day-to-day lived experience
  • When is the right time to incorporate personal experiences in your work?
  • How to use humor to your advantage in your work, without it feeling corny or forced

Why does “selling” sometimes give us such the ick?

If you think about it another way, we’re kind of always pitching something.

Whether it’s spell-casting as we write copy, rattling off our take on the latest trend grinding our gears, or sharing our origin story, we might as well communicate it in our own unique style.

Today, team Holisticism is on the pod, musing on how to pitch according to your creator archetype and how to lean into your preferred style to communicate your magic, with all your flare intact.

Welcome to our Creator Communities series. Throughout the next few episodes, we’ll be speaking to several creators about how they do the damn thing. When is it time to go all in? When is it time to rest? Retire? How do you know if you’re on the right track? Is balance achievable while launching your business and working full-time? How many friends do you have? Money do you make?

These are just a sample of the intimate questions we’ll be diving into while we speak to our guests over the next few episodes.

This episode features a lovely discussion with Michelle and Les Alfred from the Balanced Black Girl. Les is the founder and host of Balanced Black Girl, an online wellness community and podcast focused on wellness, healthy habits, spacious productivity, personal finance, and self-care from the perspectives of Black women.

What do we mean when we talk about "Wellness"? We know that it’s a multi-billion dollar industry built on products and services centered on “self-care”, and we also understand that to be "well", means much more than purchasing the latest greens powder from Whole Foods.

This is part 3/3 in our series unpacking the complex topic of what it means to work, take part, and profit from the (capital W) Wellness industry.

This week Michelle and Wallis are musing on the demise of a specific type of “Wellness” consumerism, if it’s gone for good, why it matters, and what this means for the future of the complex and weighty world of “Wellness”.

We want to hear from you! All we do, we do for you and your opinions and hot takes really matter. Let us know with a voice note here, your thoughts on this series. We’d love to hear your genius takes and share your sweet dulcet tones with the community on the pod. Don't be shy :)

What do we mean when we talk about "Wellness" today? We know that it’s a multi-billion dollar industry built on products and services centered on “self-care”, and we also understand that to be "well", means much more than purchasing the latest greens powder.

This is part two of a three part series we’ll be speaking with several guests to unpack the nuanced and complex layers of what it means to work, take part, and profit from the (capital W) Wellness industry.

This week we’re chatting with Danielle Friedman about her incredible work on the history of women’s fitness from the 60’s onward and how this history informs our most complex notions of what it means to be well in our bodies today.

At some point or another, you may have bumped into different spiritual teachers or wandered into a few magically inclined spaces who espoused ideas like money is “just energy” or that the key to achieving financial abundance is all about “shifting your mindset”. At Holisticism, we feel that just ain’t it.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be chatting with different guests and hearing from you, our dear community, on several aspects of financial well-being and what it means to manage and grow your finances from a holistic perspective.

This week, we’re lucky to be joined by the one and only Greg Pellizzon (Michelle’s Dad!) to kick off this exciting series with the best financial advice which money truly can't buy ;)

Maybe you’re like us and you like to work alone, but also want to be surrounded by friends. Ideally, you’re in a flow-state getting lots of magical downloads and intuitive hits wherever you work. But this isn’t always the case. Sometimes you can’t get there from here.

  • What’s at the root of our procrastination habits and how has COVID contributed to this?
  • What are the alt POVs on procrastination we can draw from?
  • The Extended Mind Theory, co-working, and how to design your ideal working environment to design impactful work

But blaming the internet or Instagram for your woes is exhausting, not a personality trait, and kind of ... boring.

In this episode, host Michelle Pellizzon-Lipsitz is musing on:

  • Why you’re probably not having fun on social media
  • Why hating social media is not a personality trait and how it’s actually blocking you
  • How discovering your unique intersection creates space for you to show up as true you
  • What becoming a “contributor” can do for your business and brand
  • Increasing your failure tolerance when experimenting with new intersections and interests
  • Allowing your intuition to guide you to your next interest or unique intersection
  • An exercise to help you discover your unique POV and overcome your social media shadows

Welcome to part two of our mini-series about Magical Monetization. In this episode we're looking at several mental models and theories to help expand our understanding of how we relate to wealth, scale our businesses, and 10x our containers for creating financial health.

But here's the plot twist, it's not actually about working more. The reason you’re not making money is that you’re monetizing everything. Monetize less to make more. Find the right stuff to monetize, and let it fly. Not everything needs to earn you $$$ Can you make art just to make it? THAT is capitalism critical. It's about narrowing your focus so you don't kill yourself and your business in the process of trying to launch your third Etsy store. Because it's about living, breathing, dancing, and creating art.

When deciding as a company how we wanted to approach speaking about Black History Month, we had a lot of mixed feels! Today, Janelle and Thais reflect and speak about what performative allyship often looks like during Black History Month in wellness spaces. They share and describe generously many ways that white communities, organizations, and companies can step up to support black men and women by sacrificing time, power, and sharing resources to better uplift black communities in their grounded allyship.

Covered in this episode

  • How brands capitalize and co-opt Black History Month
  • Black tokenism in the wellness space
  • The importance of rest for the black community
  • How white people can be better allies and what performative allyship looks like
  • How most wellness spaces have centered white, cis-gendered, heteronormative, and affluent people and co-opted many indigenous practices
  • Tips for white communities and white companies to be better allies
  • The complexities of the black female and male dynamic

What is Human Design, where does it come from, who can practice it, how has it been memeified and what sources can we trust?

Michelle and guest Arianna Maag dig into the incredible, weird, and problematic aspects of Human Design and how to use your Human Design strategy and authority to understand your core motivations and desires to live in your true essence. In this episode, Michelle and Arianna talk about

  • appropriation in Human Design
  • navigating practices with complex histories
  • why "conditioning" is over-hyped in HD — and why we should call it shampooing!
  • why Arianna disagrees with Human Design "diets
  • [03:20] Michelle’s introducing the Newsletter, The Cusp; its perks, research deep dives, job listings, and discounts
  • [13:25] Arianna mentions that it's important to experiment and see what holds true for you re Human Design and align with what resonates and throw out what does not
  • [14:30] Some Human Design readers are weaponizing human design
  • [15:00] Michelle shares her experience of Arianna’s reading of her fiancee, Ethan
  • [19:08] Michelle’s asks Arianna how she navigates appropriation that comes up
  • [19:41] Ariana uses her intuition to make sure that when she’s giving someone a reading, it's from a loving, affirming place. She also tries to use as many sources as possible to dilute the original roots
  • [29:05] One of the biggest cognitive distortions is that people are stuck in either-or thinking and black and white thinking. We need to exist in the grey areas
  • [38:20] Human Design is just a tool to illuminate the parts of ourselves that already exist
  • [40:25] Everything you do, we hope that it’s leading you to better trust yourself
  • [42:18] Arianna explains the strategies for manifestors and generators
  • [44:45] For generators, wait to respond. You bring so much life force energy to the party that all you have to do is sit back and wait to be presented with a plethora of options and choices
  • [45:38] You’ve got to embrace your dynamic path and allow your pivots to only be fueled by passion
  • [49:33] Arianna notes that Human design is like an experiment. It’s a tool that can be leveraged to just help you better see yourself. And if it doesn’t do that, disregard it or find someone else who can present it in a package that is more aligned to how you want to see yourself
  • [51:40] Arianna does not agree with dietary suggestions for the different types
  • [59:18] Outro of the Podcast

Competitor vs. contemporary is the reframe we're talking about today on the pod with the whole team at Holisticism! It's a triggering topic, and we've all been there where we're not sure if we should call someone in, call them out, have a tough conversation with them, or straight up invoice them for plagiarizing our work! 

There's no right answer, and we're here to discuss all perspectives without ignoring the historical and structural systems of oppression that are at play. The systems of white supremacy and patriarchy continue to create false narratives around scarcity, urgency, and competition while stealing from marginalized people, and these all must be considered as part of the conversation when talking about competition. Join us as we discuss and let us know your thoughts on the power of reframing your frenemies as collaborators.

New year, new diet? No, thank you. At Holisticism we're all for goal and intention setting, but so often capitalism and pop-culture aim to convince us that being healthy has a very specific look that frankly, we feel is just BS. Today we're sitting down with Helen Phelen (@helenvphelan) a body neutrality pilates and movement instructor, to shine some light on the darker sides of the diet and goal-setting discourse that is spamming our inbox at this time of the year. Michelle and Helen discuss their shared backgrounds growing up as dancers and their experiences with disordered eating habits, as well as the toxic and insidious belief in society that equates thinness with health.

Helen Phelan is a pilates and movement instructor who believes that body neutral, high sensation, breath centric, muscle quivering movement strengthens the body, enhances intuition, and cultivates self-compassion. Helen Phelan Studio delivers all the meditative, vitalizing, and restorative physicality you need without any of the body shaming of the traditional fitness experience. You can also find her @helenvphelen for more inspiration on fine-tuning your intuitive exercise habits and learning to love and appreciate your body and its needs.

We all know that wellness can (sometimes) be up its own ass. So when we decided to start this podcast (nearly a year ago) we didn't want to make just another podcast about #wellness — we wanted to talk about everything that goes Unseen when it comes to our well-being. 

The 12th House in Astrology is considered the “Unseen realm,” and governs all things non-physical. Think: dreams, secrets, emotions, intuitions, Shadow, mystery, and death. 

We'll use this podcast to make the Unseen seen — in wellness, intuitive business, and beyond. Look for practical advice, mystical and magical solutions, and above all, the empowerment to listen to your own intuition. We’re here to chat about leading, living, and lol' ing with intuition, y'all!

Hit subscribe and come along for the ride as we explore the Unseen parts of ourselves and this world. We guarantee it'll be a good time.
