work more on an energetic level, intention, wise, things like that. 00:05:16.221 --> 00:05:20.005 But I am I'm less of a ritualistic, ceremonial person and more of an intentional person. 00:05:20.045 --> 00:05:26.315 So growing up did you have these sort of metaphysical multi-plane? 00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:50.838 No, so in a certain way, yes, like I was the kid who would sit with the wind and play with the wind, right, so I would play with the elements more than having I didn't have access to herbs and candles and things like that. 00:05:50.838 --> 00:05:53.619 I didn't have access to that, so I would utilize the elements around me. 00:05:53.699 --> 00:05:55.286 What made us access to candles. 00:05:55.286 --> 00:06:04.742 Well, you know, to be honest, I have a lot of clients who will bring their children in and they will create things with them intention wise and not like. 00:06:04.742 --> 00:06:05.067 You know, young children. 00:06:05.067 --> 00:06:09.519 But they're create things with them intention wise and not like you know young children, but they're, yeah, it's more accessible. 00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:11.259 This is more of a re-my childhood with fire. 00:06:11.339 --> 00:06:14.846 Yeah, it's more accessible now than it was then. 00:06:14.846 --> 00:06:22.208 Right, so, not going to age myself, but it was more of the elements kid, I would read a lot of books. 00:06:22.208 --> 00:06:28.649 I would take in a lot of spell books in the library and whatever I could get my hands on, so I would do it that way. 00:06:28.649 --> 00:06:43.012 There was a point in my teenage years where I did like mess around with love spells and play with things that I probably shouldn't have played with and just I'm going to create this spell and see what happens, kind of vibe. 00:06:43.012 --> 00:06:44.384 So I did do a lot of that. 00:06:44.384 --> 00:06:46.785 I did have tarot cards at a very young age. 00:06:46.865 --> 00:07:01.968 My aunt and this will actually answer another one of your questions, but my aunt was the hippie aunt who had, you know, the tarot, the tarot deck, some crystals, just enough to get me into the idea of it. 00:07:01.968 --> 00:07:06.261 There was a crystal book, there was a magic book, into the idea of it. 00:07:06.261 --> 00:07:28.363 There was a crystal book, there was a magic book, you know that kind of vibe, but like she's from the era of the 70s where, like that was the normal for a minute, right, so she didn't continue on in her practice, but what she didn't know was she handed me a little rose quartz crystal and that was the start of this like love affair with crystals and the vibe and what they feel like and all of that. 00:07:28.363 --> 00:07:30.649 So I've always been a very vibey person. 00:07:30.649 --> 00:07:39.213 I haven't needed really to deep dive into rituals and spells and all of that stuff, but I it did start for me very young. 00:07:40.821 --> 00:07:46.791 So do you have any consistent maybe not? 00:07:46.791 --> 00:07:51.571 Yeah, absolutely Every day Consistently. 00:07:52.701 --> 00:07:58.934 If anyone is going to call me a witch, I would say I would be a chaos witch because I am all over the place, right. 00:07:58.934 --> 00:08:06.113 I have gotten better about utilizing a certain type of candle when I'm doing a certain kind of energy. 00:08:06.113 --> 00:08:11.331 I do have, like, a rose of Jericho sitting in my business office. 00:08:11.331 --> 00:08:16.168 If you don't know what that is, that is a plant that is actually forms from a root ball. 00:08:16.168 --> 00:08:19.281 You put it in water and it regrows, right, it regenerates. 00:08:19.281 --> 00:08:21.526 You can't necessarily kill it, right. 00:08:21.526 --> 00:08:25.413 It just continues to either die off without water or regrow. 00:08:25.413 --> 00:08:29.305 So it is of rebirth and abundance and things like that. 00:08:29.305 --> 00:08:36.547 So I have little practices that I work on to continue having abundance, to continue having growth. 00:08:37.830 --> 00:08:47.062 When it comes to making sure that I'm protected, you know, occasionally, depending on what's been going on in my life, I might throw out a hex uh candle. 00:08:47.062 --> 00:08:57.921 You know what's going on with with that practicing um, with black candles, white candles, money candles, things like that, um, where you dress them with herbs, um. 00:08:57.921 --> 00:09:01.830 So, yeah, I do have relatively regular practices. 00:09:01.830 --> 00:09:26.677 One of my favorites, though, and it's one of my easiest ones, is I created a jar at the beginning of my business where it was just sea salt and then the herbs of things I would burn, so sage, cedar, palo santo, pretty much any ash like anything you could think, bay leaves, cinnamon, you name. 00:09:26.677 --> 00:09:42.606 It has been burned into this little jar of sea salt and you mix it up and then, when it is to a certain extent full right, then you take that and you line your property with it, right for protection, for abundance, things like that. 00:09:42.606 --> 00:09:46.942 I know right now the big trend is to blow cinnamon in your door. 00:09:46.942 --> 00:09:50.370 For many, right, I've been burning cinnamon for years. 00:09:50.370 --> 00:09:54.686 Just burn it, just burn it when you want and bring in the financial abundance. 00:09:54.885 --> 00:10:02.186 So I'm a big believer in burning a lot of things to clear, to move vibrations. 00:10:02.186 --> 00:10:10.261 I'm a big sound person as well, sound bowls, I use tuning forks in my practice, things like that. 00:10:10.261 --> 00:10:20.472 So, yeah, absolutely, I have a ton of different practices that I use, I want to say semi regularly, because, again, I am eclectic and chaotic and it just is. 00:10:20.472 --> 00:10:22.302 It's based on the energy for me. 00:10:22.302 --> 00:10:24.605 So I'm like, ok, tapped in, where am I at? 00:10:24.605 --> 00:10:30.115 What do I require in this moment to move this energy or shift it

to what I want it to be Right? 00:10:30.115 --> 00:10:31.341 So that's where I'm at. 00:10:34.408 --> 00:10:38.394 Would you say that this practice has changed your life? 00:10:54.980 --> 00:10:55.480 Absolutely. 00:10:55.480 --> 00:11:02.513 I didn't think that I would be a metaphysical wellness shop operator as well as kind of a community leader in regards to these things in the local space that I'm in. 00:11:02.513 --> 00:11:08.083 I didn't think that I would ever be just workshopping things at a huge retreat with 400, 500 people at a huge retreat with 400, 500 people. 00:11:08.083 --> 00:11:22.826 I never thought that I would do retreats where I would be standing in front of people and offering the experiences and the metaphysical nuances that I've been kind of honing over the last 10 years to other people and be able to kind of give that and give that education to other people. 00:11:22.826 --> 00:11:24.870 So I used to be in corporate. 00:11:24.870 --> 00:11:26.033 I used to be just. 00:11:26.033 --> 00:11:33.907 You know, when I got out of high school, I kind of dropped all of the witchy stuff because it wasn't supposed to serve me, it wasn't going to make me money, right. 00:11:33.907 --> 00:11:50.490 So went to college, did that through night school, got myself a small business, uh, administration degree over many, many, many years because finances and stuff and never thought I would use it, never thought I would actually own a business. 00:11:51.080 --> 00:11:59.466 And 2020 kind of gifted me that moment where it was like, okay, well, you're not happy in your corporate environment and you need to get out of it. 00:11:59.466 --> 00:12:10.169 So here, literally, we're handing you an out in the universe and we're also handing you the ability to create this space and do what you want with it, and that's what I did. 00:12:10.169 --> 00:12:21.408 So in 2020, all of my, my entire existence changed, really, because I was honing in the spirituality and trying to figure out well, how do I make this part of my life? 00:12:21.408 --> 00:12:22.812 And 2020 handed me. 00:12:22.812 --> 00:12:39.331 Well, you create it, you create the space, and so I did that, and ever since my, I can't explain how much gratitude and support and love that I've received from the community just being there, and that is something that has literally shifted my whole being. 00:12:41.302 --> 00:12:43.168 I feel like 2020 was a big old power. 00:12:45.659 --> 00:12:50.168 Absolutely, absolutely. 00:12:50.168 --> 00:12:55.275 What would you say is the biggest motivator in the past? 00:12:55.275 --> 00:12:59.167 The biggest motivator Right now? 00:12:59.167 --> 00:13:00.791 For me, it's community. 00:13:11.563 --> 00:13:14.980 Originally it was just trying to get people out of their boxes and open up minds to something that's different than what they're used to. 00:13:17.620 --> 00:13:35.789 A personal motivator for me is just educating people and creating an inclusive space comes in, for if we're running a big event and things like that, we get to talk to them about what the products do, what intention they could set and how they can shift their lives just by changing their mindset and being open and aware. 00:13:36.270 --> 00:13:49.423 And I find that when they start to be open to one thing, they'll start to be open to other things, and we kind of live in like a small community where a lot of the mindset is closed. 00:13:49.423 --> 00:13:55.967 So when we start to get those folks who are not used to these things and they just kind of pop their head in at first like, oh, what is this? 00:13:55.967 --> 00:13:56.889 What does this do? 00:13:56.889 --> 00:13:58.982 You know it's my job to go. 00:13:58.982 --> 00:14:12.543 This is something that can help transform your life if you want it to, if you have that belief system and that faith to be open enough to it, and then I've seen people kind of grow just from those small interactions over time. 00:14:12.543 --> 00:14:20.932 So that is my motivator to continue doing that, just to be able to open people's minds up a little bit more every time I have a conversation with them. 00:14:23.400 --> 00:14:26.389 Would you say that that's different from when you first started out? 00:14:28.701 --> 00:14:32.668 So my original motivator was about me, right. 00:14:32.668 --> 00:14:36.100 So we always kind of go inwards to go outwards, right. 00:14:36.100 --> 00:14:48.461 And so my personal motivator before I owned the shop, before I actually had an audience to speak to, was to recreate my life in the way that makes me happy, right? 00:14:48.461 --> 00:15:01.861 My whole goal of trying to find happiness, to be motivated, to be myself, to commit to myself, to find and educate myself as well in the realms of these things, so I can have the conversations. 00:15:01.861 --> 00:15:08.363 So originally it was about why am I sick and no doctor can tell me what is wrong with me, right? 00:15:08.363 --> 00:15:15.034 Why is my mental wellbeing not great and what can I do about that? 00:15:15.034 --> 00:15:35.984 And then just trying to find a way to live in this society that has been created around us without losing my mind and not, like you know, going into the woods and becoming a recluse, right, right, trying to be part of the community instead of disappearing into the woods. 00:15:35.984 --> 00:15:55.206 I still want to do it, but I'm giving myself some time beforehand, like I want to get to a certain age before I'm like I'm out, I'm out, reclusing it's, it's for me now, right, so that is the end game, but right now, you know, like I'm trying to fit it. 00:15:55.248 --> 00:16:03.191 The original motivator was trying to find a way to bring more joy and happiness into my life, be able to bring abundance into my life. 00:16:03.191 --> 00:16:06.361 Where I felt comfortable, I can pay my bills, things like that. 00:16:06.361 --> 00:16:22.693 Right, and I'm not saying that when you book a session

with me, you're automatically paying my bills, but what you're doing is you are allowing me to continue the drive and the motivation to spread the awareness that this is something that everyone can do. 00:16:22.693 --> 00:16:34.525 This is not something that only one or few chosen people can do, but we can continue to do this as individuals for ourselves, and the magic is going to be different based on our own individualism. 00:16:34.525 --> 00:16:43.943 So Nice, I feel like you're like. 00:16:43.943 --> 00:16:45.509 Feel free to go off book. 00:16:45.509 --> 00:16:47.085 I didn't really read the questions. 00:16:47.085 --> 00:16:48.809 You're welcome to ask me whatever you want. 00:16:50.380 --> 00:16:51.225 I tend to have this. 00:16:51.225 --> 00:16:53.506 Don't worry, it'll happen. 00:16:56.000 --> 00:16:59.631 I'm like we're just going to go down whatever road happens today Exactly. 00:17:02.821 --> 00:17:05.269 What would you say is your biggest struggle in your practice? 00:17:07.443 --> 00:17:11.530 consistency, but that's just me as a human consistency. 00:17:11.550 --> 00:17:30.667 So I'm not great with things that like require manipulating the human brain, like marketing, right, and like the content that needs to be created in order to get myself out there and to be able to influence multiple people. 00:17:32.229 --> 00:17:41.777 The algorithms it's just ridiculous at this point, right, they're not trying to help us, they're trying to sabotage us, and so I do better in person. 00:17:41.777 --> 00:17:54.743 I do better in person, um, uh, so my struggle right now is making sure that I'm scheduling enough time to be in person with people, right, and like cause I do better with crowds, I do better with, like, fast talking. 00:17:54.743 --> 00:18:01.050 Let's have this conversation real quick and then you can decide if you're going to book with me or if you're going to come in and buy something, whatever. 00:18:01.050 --> 00:18:10.775 So that's why I like workshops, that's why I like retreats, cause I get to spend time with people, and that also influences me to know what you guys require. 00:18:10.775 --> 00:18:30.920 So the struggle right now is just um, I don't know if you know this, but I had a huge house fire back in January, and so my struggle has been for the last few months, just trying to get myself back to a space of comfort, to feel not in survival mode, yeah, safety, not in survival mode, right, in fact, in thrive mode. 00:18:31.101 --> 00:18:33.749 And so I had to put all of my workshops on hold. 00:18:33.749 --> 00:18:44.034 I did do like a couple of small things with very few people, but it it took a chunk of time out of my um, my ability to do things. 00:18:44.034 --> 00:18:50.470 So I'm just starting to get back into putting workshops on the book, scheduling with people, things like that. 00:18:50.470 --> 00:18:53.541 So that's kind of just that plus content. 00:18:53.541 --> 00:18:57.670 It was just, you know, kind of set

me back just a smidge. 00:18:57.670 --> 00:19:00.214 Yeah. 00:19:00.214 --> 00:19:04.769 Yeah, it's been, it's been rough, it's been a rough few months, but we are getting there. 00:19:04.769 --> 00:19:10.000 We're getting there, we, we. 00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:17.586 At the beginning of April, we met that energy of like, okay, it happened and I need to start to move forward from it and not wallow in it anymore, and so it's now trying to get people around us to shift. 00:19:17.586 --> 00:19:25.992 So like, okay, let's stop feeling bad about the situation and start to realize that it's not going to change and we can move forward from it. 00:19:25.992 --> 00:19:32.393 So shifting the energy of it from us outward is kind of the what we're working on right now. 00:19:32.532 --> 00:19:41.779 So, yeah, would you say you ever have imposter syndrome about. 00:19:41.779 --> 00:19:44.298 Okay, Would you say you ever have imposter syndrome about? 00:19:46.201 --> 00:19:47.163 Okay, who doesn't? 00:19:47.163 --> 00:19:47.703 I? 00:19:47.703 --> 00:19:54.673 Honestly, I have this theory that if you don't have imposter syndrome, you are working from a place of ego only. 00:19:54.673 --> 00:19:57.195 And what can you possibly offer me? 00:19:57.195 --> 00:20:03.063 Because you're only going to give me your personal perspective on things. 00:20:03.183 --> 00:20:15.050 Right, with imposter syndrome, I think it's completely normal to have a little bit of it, right, you should always have a little bit of it, especially when you're going into workshops and you don't. 00:20:15.070 --> 00:20:20.144 You feel like you don't know anything, and then you start to talk and people are in awe of what you are actually giving them, right? 00:20:20.144 --> 00:20:36.787 So, yeah, anytime I do a retreat, anytime I do a workshop, anytime, even even in one on one client, you know situations where I'm not sure this is the first time I'm meeting this person, we haven't had a conversation yet, like that kind of thing. 00:20:36.787 --> 00:20:39.252 Absolutely, we'll totally have imposter syndrome. 00:20:39.252 --> 00:20:53.772 So to overcome it, I tend to just know that fear is the way that your body tries to keep you safe, but in reality, you need to sit in the discomfort in order to move forward and be able to grow. 00:20:53.772 --> 00:20:55.382 So I have. 00:20:55.382 --> 00:21:07.567 I have actively worked on that so many times where, like I know right, we sat on a panel together at the last Anahatas and you know how uncomfortable that made me, like I was. 00:21:07.567 --> 00:21:11.073 I was sweating, I was, I was gross underneath those clothes. 00:21:11.073 --> 00:21:12.535 I was absolutely disgusting. 00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:20.989 Really, Because I thought, oh gosh, she's so professional and I'm just no farcical weirdo on the end. 00:21:22.109 --> 00:21:29.682 No, I've just gotten to hone it right, I've just gotten to be able to put on that, that brave face, that mask. 00:21:29.682

--> 00:21:43.749 You'll catch me slipping in communication when I'm doing stuff like that, because my brain will just short circuit and I'll be like oh, no more words, oh well, so, but yeah, no. 00:21:43.749 --> 00:21:50.926 So, to overcome it, I tend to just drive right through the fear and focus on something that I know that I can talk about. 00:21:50.926 --> 00:22:04.205 Um, and I have this idea that this belief system, that everything we know, sits in a cloud above our head, like the original quote-unquote cloud of information, right, and you kind of just pull in the information that you need in the moment. 00:22:04.205 --> 00:22:18.827 And you for me, if I'm doing a workshop, I'm doing a meditation, I'm doing some sort of talk of something, or even sometimes, when I'm with a client, I will allow that information kind of take over so that I can give them the information in the right way. 00:22:19.269 --> 00:22:23.185 And I take myself out of it personally because it's not about me, right? 00:22:23.185 --> 00:22:30.296 My personal belief systems have no like place in regards to clients or workshops or anything like that. 00:22:30.296 --> 00:22:36.740 It's like when you're doing mediumship if you're doing mediumship and you're speaking with the other side, that message isn't for you. 00:22:36.740 --> 00:22:43.403 That message is for that person who's in front of you and you are just a conduit to give that message. 00:22:43.403 --> 00:23:03.711 So, allowing that myself to kind of step out of it and know that it's not a personal situation, this is not a personal belief situation, right, it is about being able to just strive to give that information in the best way or the way that they can understand it with your tones so that they can come back to it later. 00:23:03.711 --> 00:23:07.059 Understand it with your tones, so that they can come back to it later. 00:23:07.059 --> 00:23:08.602 Does that make sense? 00:23:08.602 --> 00:23:09.345 I just did it. 00:23:09.345 --> 00:23:16.989 I'm going to listen back to this later and be like I don't know what the fuck I said. 00:23:16.989 --> 00:23:21.707 Absolutely not, don't remember it, but it's not a personal situation, it's just trying to get the information out. 00:23:21.727 --> 00:23:23.751 Perfect, yes, we are. 00:23:23.751 --> 00:23:25.788 We are a 10 out of 10 today. 00:23:25.807 --> 00:23:31.469 Then, what brings you the most joy in your practice. 00:23:34.280 --> 00:23:38.711 Being able to see people take the information in and actually do something with it. 00:23:38.711 --> 00:23:58.595 And I get people who come back three months later, six months later, and their life has shifted the way that they wanted it to and they're thriving, they're having these beautiful lives from an hour session with me or, you know, two or three sessions or whatever they decided to do. 00:23:58.595 --> 00:24:04.673 And I don't have clients who need to come in every month for years and years. 00:24:04.673 --> 00:24:08.307 Right, I have a couple of clients who will come in. 00:24:08.307 --> 00:24:09.250 I had one client. 00:24:09.250 --> 00:24:15.906 I'll give you an instance I have I had I'll give you two instances because I love both of these clients so much and I don't see them anymore at all. 00:24:15.906 --> 00:24:29.951 I had one client who wanted to quantum shift herself completely out of what we would call death programming, meaning she didn't want the suicidal thoughts anymore, she didn't want the depression anymore, she didn't want the mental illness anymore. 00:24:29.951 --> 00:24:42.490 So she decided that she was going to quantum leap herself, with my assistance, in a matter of 45 minutes in an energetic yeah, she is thriving so hard. 00:24:42.490 --> 00:24:44.535 She's on my Instagram, you can look her out. 00:24:44.535 --> 00:24:45.701 She is just. 00:24:45.701 --> 00:25:01.512 She got married, she's been taking great care of her body, she's just like all of these wonderful things and she wrote me this beautiful review about um, just how much shift she got from one session, from one session, and so that's really what keeps me going. 00:25:02.432 --> 00:25:04.595 Another wonderful client came in. 00:25:04.595 --> 00:25:11.565 She had just had, like, a miscarriage and she was dead set I'm not going to be able to get pregnant, I can't do this anymore. 00:25:11.565 --> 00:25:12.387 All of that stuff. 00:25:12.387 --> 00:25:13.885 And I'm like, but what do you want? 00:25:13.885 --> 00:25:16.086 And she's like I really want a child. 00:25:16.086 --> 00:25:18.090 But I really want a child, like right now. 00:25:18.090 --> 00:25:22.431 And I was like, all right, so that's what we will focus on, that's your focus. 00:25:22.431 --> 00:25:25.773 I. 00:25:25.773 --> 00:25:30.871 So she had this beautiful intention that we went into a session with. 00:25:30.871 --> 00:25:37.589 I think we might have worked on that for maybe two or three sessions and, mind you, they're about an hour session each. 00:25:37.589 --> 00:25:46.126 And then I didn't see her again for three months and she came back and she was pregnant, like she was fully pregnant. 00:25:46.126 --> 00:25:51.451 So then when she had her baby, she came in and she's like this is the energy ripple baby. 00:25:52.781 --> 00:25:54.428 So we have children now. 00:25:54.428 --> 00:26:06.876 So it's just a beautiful, beautiful way to be able to spread that energy and have people come back and say I've had people walk up to me at Anahata's. 00:26:06.876 --> 00:26:21.440 Someone walked up to me and they were like, yeah, I took what you said in this one class and I applied it, like fully applied it, and I'm doing insane right now and I'm like that's, that's crazy, that's amazing, that's freaking amazing. 00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:28.223 So that is what keeps me going on the day to day, honestly, because there are some days, there are some weeks I don't see clients. 00:26:28.364 --> 00:26:33.784 I don't,

you know, I may not have the energy or I just don't have, you know, no one's scheduled or something. 00:26:33.784 --> 00:26:48.301 Let's be real, you know, sometimes there's a drought of people and everyone's doing their own thing and I'm like, okay, I can just wait it out until I get busy again or whatever, and start to see these folks again, and I always get new folks. 00:26:48.301 --> 00:27:03.950 I mean, I have to say I've probably seen more new people than I have repeat customers, because my goal is you don't need to do this all the time, you just need to do it to the point of being able to bring in happiness and growth into your life that you feel good about yourself, you know. 00:27:03.950 --> 00:27:06.167 So that's what keeps me going. 00:27:06.840 --> 00:27:08.663 You actually came up in. 00:27:08.663 --> 00:27:12.210 I'm like 90% sure that it was in. 00:27:12.210 --> 00:27:24.262 Well, I did a group interview with some of my patrons and you came up because they were talking about one of the class at one of the workshops you did at Anahata's. 00:27:25.124 --> 00:27:27.047 I'm gonna guess it was intro to energy. 00:27:27.047 --> 00:27:31.035 Yes, that was a wild class. 00:27:31.035 --> 00:27:37.656 So I always tell people every time I do a workshop it's funny because I've been doing similar workshops for the last almost five years. 00:27:37.656 --> 00:27:52.140 This will be the fifth year and every time I do them, I do it based on the audience that I have Right, so it's based on the energy of the audience that is right in front of me, so it can shift based on who's in front of me. 00:27:52.088 --> 00:27:53.295 And I just so happen to have all of these wonderful little witches in front of me, so it can shift based on who's in front of me. 00:27:53.295 --> 00:27:58.521 And I just so happened to have all of these wonderful little witches in front of me and they had all of these beautiful questions. 00:27:58.521 --> 00:28:00.646 And so we did the intro to energy. 00:28:00.646 --> 00:28:13.393 But then we shifted it to something that was more galactic, something that was more open, something that could invite them to see the world in a different perspective, and it just wound up being this beautiful class, and I I will never forget that class. 00:28:13.393 --> 00:28:15.126 It was one of my favorites, for sure. 00:28:16.901 --> 00:28:25.627 They said that they were doing some kind of meditation and you walked around and talked to and they didn't they like, had their eyes closed or something. 00:28:25.627 --> 00:28:32.800 And they they heard you say something to the other person that it was similar to what they. 00:28:32.800 --> 00:28:36.701 You told the one that was yeah. 00:28:36.701 --> 00:28:49.852 And then at the end of the class of the presentation, you were like I had to pull some of you out of yourselves, but it was fine, and Janie and Sarah looked at each other like it was me. 00:28:50.881 --> 00:28:52.824 And Janie and Sarah looked at

each other like it was me. 00:28:52.824 --> 00:28:55.086 Yeah, yes, I do so. 00:28:55.086 --> 00:29:12.568 When I do a meditation, my, what I do is I set up a grid of being able to enhance the energy, and what that does is it gives me an idea of where everyone is sitting, because I can see your energy more clearly and feel it. 00:29:12.568 --> 00:29:25.413 So when I'm walking around and kind of making sure that everyone is in line with where we are supposed to be, there are some folks who will block themselves from allowing in energy, right? 00:29:25.413 --> 00:29:32.673 So with that intro to energy, we're connecting with ourselves, we're connecting with earth and we're connecting with source and connecting with earth and we're connecting with source. 00:29:32.972 --> 00:29:37.778 And I think we got to source and they were like oh, I'm too scared to do source stuff. 00:29:37.778 --> 00:29:40.204 Oh, like what is that going to let in? 00:29:40.204 --> 00:29:49.201 And I'm like it's only going to let in the things you want it to, the intentions that you require and the messages and downloads that you require to move yourself forward. 00:29:49.201 --> 00:29:51.226 So that is what the intention is that. 00:29:51.226 --> 00:29:52.748 So that's what we're going to allow in. 00:29:52.748 --> 00:30:01.092 So I had to kind of like bump them out of their bodies in order to allow that to kind of download and sink into their bodies, but they're great. 00:30:01.413 --> 00:30:21.282 Honestly, I didn't have any expectations for the last Anahatas and I try not to go in with expectations, but I always have such a fantastic time meeting people and and they had probably been there multiple times before and I know I had been there multiple times before, but you don't always cross paths until you need to cross paths and they were just. 00:30:21.282 --> 00:30:27.128 They were in my path constantly the whole time and I was like, okay, so I've got information for you. 00:30:27.128 --> 00:30:29.548 You guys are going to show me what's up and it's. 00:30:29.669 --> 00:30:39.742 It was just a really beautiful exchange, you guys are going to show me what's up, and it was just a really beautiful exchange, maybe this will be the year that I actually go to class I. 00:30:39.803 --> 00:30:44.768 every year I say that, every year I say that and I have not gotten to. 00:30:44.768 --> 00:30:46.449 I always miss it and I don't know. 00:30:46.449 --> 00:31:01.269 I think I spent last year just getting talk, like people would just walk up to me and start talking and just unloading and I would offer them my perspective and then boom, an hour was gone, like, and I'm like, oh, I missed the thing that I wanted to do. 00:31:01.269 --> 00:31:02.586 I still haven't done archery. 00:31:02.586 --> 00:31:05.509 You know how many times I've been there for archery and I still haven't done archery. 00:31:05.509 --> 00:31:07.006 I still haven't done the drums. 00:31:07.006 --> 00:31:08.204 There's

no drumming for me. 00:31:08.204 --> 00:31:18.085 I can't even get into a rhythm like I haven't done anything. 00:31:18.085 --> 00:31:19.347 I haven't done anything I can't ever like. 00:31:19.347 --> 00:31:22.355 So this year I'm gonna put it out into the ethers that I would like to attend something. 00:31:22.394 --> 00:31:39.449 yeah, within the four days four whole freaking days that were there, right, um, yes, yeah, it's, it's just wild, it's wild yeah, I can probably count, on one hand, the number of like official things from the schedule that I have made it to and this is gonna. 00:31:39.449 --> 00:31:40.952 I'm coming up on my fourth one. 00:31:41.012 --> 00:31:52.002 So, yes, okay, yeah, let's hold each other to this okay, okay, I'll see you that first day and I'm gonna say okay, we need to circle something. 00:31:52.002 --> 00:31:55.528 Yes, I don, I don't care, we could go together, we could go separate, I don't care what it is. 00:31:55.528 --> 00:31:58.112 We're going to circle something and we're going to put ourselves in that space. 00:31:59.513 --> 00:32:17.911 I like it, okay, good this is a question that Andrea asked a while ago and I added it to my list of questions because I like it. 00:32:17.911 --> 00:32:20.319 What is something you did early in your practice that you don't do anymore, and why don't you? 00:32:21.300 --> 00:32:26.227 Okay, that's a really good question. 00:32:27.407 --> 00:32:29.611 Also, if it wasn't Andrea, sorry, I don't remember who you are. 00:32:29.611 --> 00:32:30.111 Please tell me. 00:32:37.500 --> 00:32:41.748 I need a second to think about this, I think. 00:32:41.748 --> 00:33:15.846 For me specifically, I think it would probably be something along the lines of worrying about what everyone else thinks about what you do, to be honest, like and your practice is going to change a million times and you might find yourself going back like I find myself this year going back to some of the like root core things that held me together at the beginning, and I think that that is okay, especially when you wind up in such a big trauma and you throw yourself back into those things that really kind of held your spirit up. 00:33:15.846 --> 00:33:20.122 So I will say honestly, I use a lot of the things. 00:33:20.122 --> 00:33:28.045 It's just probably inconsistently, but worrying about what anybody else has to say and what they do and how they practice. 00:33:28.045 --> 00:33:30.971 That is not something that I uphold anymore. 00:33:30.971 --> 00:33:41.125 I don't have any judgments or opinions on how other people use their practice and if they decide to do rituals or how they decide to do rituals or whatever they use. 00:33:41.125 --> 00:33:49.021 I'm trying to think if there's anything like one specific thing I don't follow spells anymore. 00:33:49.021 --> 00:33:50.923 I don't follow spells anymore. 00:33:51.482 --> 00:34:14.782 I will find that like people will open up a spell book and try and go in and replicate it like piece by piece, and when folks come in and I'll just tell them like you can substitute a bay leaf can be switched out for a stick of cinnamon or vice versa, whatever. 00:34:15.905 --> 00:34:25.027 You don't need to replicate the spell to every single point like a scientific recipe, right, so you can kind of play with it. 00:34:25.027 --> 00:34:25.548 More than that. 00:34:25.548 --> 00:34:31.690 So I definitely I went through that mode when I was a teenager of trying to replicate a spell specifically. 00:34:31.690 --> 00:34:37.503 I went through that mode when I was a teenager of trying to replicate a spell specifically and and I know that without the intention behind it being correct, it doesn't work anyway. 00:34:37.503 --> 00:34:41.806 So if you have the intention, that is your main ingredient. 00:34:41.806 --> 00:34:45.168 That is the one thing that you will require to make any spell work. 00:34:45.168 --> 00:34:53.911 Um, but yeah, so that is, that is probably it the judgments, opinions on other people's stuff and just throw all that shit away. 00:34:53.911 --> 00:35:23.094 And also, do not feel like you need to uphold every single spell, use every single word and have it down to a time and a science in order for it to work the rhymey extremely long yes, stuff that I have to say I don't have time or memory in my mouth will not do that exactly. 00:35:23.114 --> 00:35:35.202 Could you imagine some of that, like you get a spell book and it's it's pages of a spell, absolutely not, absolutely not right if I'm, if I'm doing this, yes, no, well, and then they want you to memorize it. 00:35:35.202 --> 00:35:44.034 You know like it's, like they expect you to be uncharmed, where you can say, like this cute little rhyming spell, and it just says no, oh my god, please stop. 00:35:44.034 --> 00:35:51.471 No, absolutely not, no, and I don't have time to, I don't have time to bring five other people into the circle. 00:35:51.490 --> 00:35:56.909 To also memorize it, hold hands and do like I don't have time for that. 00:35:56.909 --> 00:35:58.420 My goodness, you know. 00:35:58.420 --> 00:36:02.211 Wait, how long did it take for us to schedule this podcast? 00:36:02.211 --> 00:36:03.585 I don't have time for that. 00:36:03.585 --> 00:36:04.487 I don't have time. 00:36:04.487 --> 00:36:08.268 A year, over a year, like seriously. 00:36:08.539 --> 00:36:20.373 Teenagers maybe can do that when they're learning, like Exactly when they have to memorize caesar's speech to whoever yeah, it's a great way then yeah, go ahead and memorize this spell. 00:36:20.494 --> 00:36:26.960 I'm not, I don't, I can't do that right now it's a great basis, but it's not something that upholds over time. 00:36:26.960 --> 00:36:29.789 At the end of the day, you're like oh okay, this is about money. 00:36:29.989 --> 00:36:34.034 All right, bitch, give me my money, let's go you do the candle and you do the whatever and you're like oh okay, this is about money.

00:36:34.034 --> 00:36:38.273 All right, bitch, give me my money, let's go and you do the candle and you do the whatever and you get what you need to get. 00:36:38.273 --> 00:36:38.637 You sing a song. 00:36:38.637 --> 00:36:43.914 Maybe I have to remember a song Bitch, better have my money, bitch, better have my money. 00:36:43.914 --> 00:36:44.539 Yeah, absolutely. 00:36:46.384 --> 00:36:50.512 But I'm not saying a soliloquy written by Shakespeare about it. 00:36:51.500 --> 00:36:53.268 Absolutely not, absolutely not. 00:36:55.681 --> 00:36:56.983 What is your favorite tool? 00:36:56.983 --> 00:36:58.849 Doesn't have to be a physical object. 00:36:58.849 --> 00:37:00.693 Yeah, how do you use it? 00:37:04.443 --> 00:37:30.206 I have so many tools in my toolbox right now but I honestly I have so much fun with using a pendulum in front of other people especially just blows their freaking mind and it really is just an extension of you, but it kind of just gets to that visual part of our brain that we really love and it's so satisfying when you see it like turn and then you ask it a question, it turns the other way, you know. 00:37:30.679 --> 00:37:42.742 So sometimes I'll use a pendulum to make a point with people, um to prove that I'm validating whatever is needed to be validated in that moment. 00:37:42.742 --> 00:37:44.987 But that is probably one of my top, like I will. 00:37:44.987 --> 00:37:50.126 I will go back to that in order to um prove my point. 00:37:50.126 --> 00:37:54.824 So that is number one, and I know that I believe it's. 00:37:54.824 --> 00:37:59.626 Janie is a pendulum freak and I love to call her. 00:37:59.626 --> 00:38:15.646 I sent her a couple of really neat pendulums and she's got some beautiful pendulums in her collection and, yeah, so we bonded over pendulums, but it's, it's you come up every time we talk about it. 00:38:16.900 --> 00:38:18.465 Well, there was a retreat that we did. 00:38:18.465 --> 00:38:29.485 It was a smaller one, we had a lot of beans there and we were around a campfire and someone was playing with pendulum and I was like can I just see it for a second Cause I want to make sure that it would work. 00:38:29.485 --> 00:38:36.501 So I started playing with it and I walked around to every person and I asked them really out of the box questions that they normally wouldn't ask. 00:38:36.501 --> 00:38:40.751 A pendulum, like what galactic collective have you been? 00:38:40.751 --> 00:38:43.646 Or like have you been, you know like whatever? 00:38:43.646 --> 00:38:45.130 Like how many lifetimes have you been here? 00:38:45.130 --> 00:38:53.934 Like that kind of stuff, you know like out of the box stuff, because I like to validate things that no one else can validate, right? 00:38:54.054 --> 00:39:06.485 So if you're thinking like way outside the box and you're, you're focusing on things that you normally wouldn't focus on, it helps open your perspective to some things that could download or come into your body

a little bit easier. 00:39:06.485 --> 00:39:09.721 So that's what we did and I went around to every person. 00:39:09.721 --> 00:39:26.190 I think I went around like two or three times around the fire and I talked to every person about these things and it just like it was such a cool exercise in showing them how they could use a pendulum, and then I was like here, now you do it and just walked away. 00:39:26.190 --> 00:39:29.967 It's not, it's not personal to me. 00:39:29.967 --> 00:39:31.505 You can do it as well. 00:39:31.505 --> 00:39:34.081 It's just a matter of what questions you're asking. 00:39:34.081 --> 00:39:41.885 So it's an extension of yourself, but it's um, it's one of those really cool tools that I don't think gets enough hype. 00:39:43.108 --> 00:39:47.483 Was it your class that they learned about the body itself at being? 00:39:47.483 --> 00:39:49.788 But I loved hearing them talk about that. 00:39:50.650 --> 00:39:50.869 Yes. 00:39:51.050 --> 00:40:00.494 Using your body for truth testing, allowing your body to go forward and backward to get your yes and no, and then sometimes it doesn't move at all, which kind of is just like do what you want to do. 00:40:00.494 --> 00:40:04.713 You know it's not really going to impact you and that is an option in life as well. 00:40:04.713 --> 00:40:06.561 You know there's always another option. 00:40:06.561 --> 00:40:08.626 You know there isn't always just a yes and a no. 00:40:08.626 --> 00:40:13.460 There's an A and a B and a C and a D and a Z, like all of those things. 00:40:13.460 --> 00:40:24.976 So when you start to think outside of the box, if you feel like you only have two decisions to make, maybe you need to start thinking way outside of the box to see if there's another option that would work. 00:40:24.976 --> 00:40:35.208 And a great way to do that is to either truth test with your body or use your pendulum to see if there is another option that maybe you're just your brain is just not putting together. 00:40:40.500 --> 00:40:43.126 Speaking of your brain, not putting things together. 00:40:43.126 --> 00:40:45.744 How do you pull yourself out of a magical slump? 00:40:48.059 --> 00:40:54.583 Honestly, I am a person who's like okay, but am I supposed to be in the slump right now, Like, is this where I'm supposed to be? 00:40:54.583 --> 00:41:03.005 Because, honestly, sometimes we need a kick in the pants and in order to do that, we have to rest through something. 00:41:03.005 --> 00:41:06.032 So it depends on the slump. 00:41:06.032 --> 00:41:09.626 Am I, am I feeling like I'm getting bad juju? 00:41:09.626 --> 00:41:12.532 Are things going wrong in this slump? 00:41:12.532 --> 00:41:15.148 Or am I just in rest mode, Right? 00:41:15.148 --> 00:41:18.230 So if I'm just in rest mode, that's fine. 00:41:18.230 --> 00:41:20.827 Maybe I'm just I need to be off this week. 00:41:20.827 --> 00:41:21.842 Maybe I need. 00:41:21.842 --> 00:41:28.114 Maybe there's something going on in the universe that I don't understand fully, because I'm not great at astrology, although I like to pretend that I am. 00:41:28.960 --> 00:41:49.688 But you know, I don't know that feeling pretend that I am, but I think it was during the solar, like the eclipses that we just had, right, there was a moment where you were just kind of bumped out of the energy and you had to be really human for a moment to recalibrate. 00:41:49.688 --> 00:41:57.762 Yeah yeah, absolutely human for a moment to recalibrate? 00:41:57.762 --> 00:41:58.262 Yeah yeah, absolutely. 00:41:58.262 --> 00:42:09.670 So you have to recalibrate sometimes in order to be pushed into the next level that you have, but on a real, on a real note, if I am feeling like I'm in a slump, I will probably use sound for for number one. 00:42:09.670 --> 00:42:16.043 Um, either it's me playing with my, my singing bowls, or I'm playing like a binaural beat or something. 00:42:16.043 --> 00:42:42.429 While I'm doing something, sometimes I will listen to people who I find energetically uplifting, and I don't mean like in a positivity guru kind of way, but I mean in someone who makes me think outside the box, right so someone who makes me question what I'm going through, and then that helps me to kind of be like oh well, maybe I'm just not seeing the puzzle pieces in the way that I'm supposed to be seeing them in this moment. 00:42:42.429 --> 00:42:49.826 Okay, so what if I shift and I do an interruption of my energy by doing something outside of the box for myself. 00:42:49.826 --> 00:42:53.550 Does that help me bump back in the way that I do? 00:42:53.550 --> 00:42:55.666 So it's kind of like a hard restart, right. 00:42:55.686 --> 00:43:02.244 When you do an interrupter, turn yourself on and off again, absolutely, absolutely. 00:43:02.244 --> 00:43:03.849 I tell people to do this all the time. 00:43:03.849 --> 00:43:20.432 So you should have some sort of interrupter that you have built in and it can be different every single time you do it, but you know that it's something that would be completely outside of your norm for that day and you decide to do it anyway, right, so, whatever that is. 00:43:20.432 --> 00:43:31.871 So if you normally don't go to the gyms on gym on Mondays and you're like I feel super weird, I feel super off, maybe I do need to go to the gym today, that would be considered like an interrupter, right. 00:43:32.050 --> 00:43:33.253 Something small that you do. 00:43:33.253 --> 00:43:41.489 It could be hey, I never take baths, but today I'm going to take a bath to see how it feels, and that's an interrupter because you never do that thing. 00:43:41.489 --> 00:43:43.847 It's not something that's normal to your routine. 00:43:43.847 --> 00:44:17.827 So anything that's outside of your normal routine is an interrupter and you can use those things daily to kind of like hard reset your energy, right, it brings you into the almost, not discomfort, but it brings you into a different realm of

being in that space because it confuses your brain when you're outside of your routine Question on that. 00:44:17.907 --> 00:44:19.108 So this is two more weeks. 00:44:19.108 --> 00:44:28.331 You know, I'm just, I wish I could go somewhere and I wish I could go to the freaking post office or the gym okay, so you can't drive for the next two weeks. 00:44:28.373 --> 00:44:29.342 Can you uber somewhere? 00:44:30.865 --> 00:44:35.204 not from the country, not affordably okay, that's fair. 00:44:35.664 --> 00:44:36.365 Do you have friends? 00:44:36.365 --> 00:44:39.952 I just have to wait no, not to wait. 00:44:41.782 --> 00:44:44.969 My friends live on my phone and they can't drive me anywhere. 00:44:44.969 --> 00:44:51.972 Oh, gotcha, so I gotta just wait these two weeks yeah, which okay, fine. 00:44:56.340 --> 00:44:59.447 I do have a business that I'm running but Workout at home. 00:44:59.708 --> 00:45:02.293 I don't even like driving or going anywhere. 00:45:02.293 --> 00:45:07.364 I just don't like being told no. 00:45:07.384 --> 00:45:08.164 That's the realist. 00:45:08.164 --> 00:45:09.545 Me too, me too. 00:45:10.547 --> 00:45:10.746 Me too. 00:45:10.746 --> 00:45:11.407 I'm the worst at that. 00:45:11.407 --> 00:45:13.269 Fish literally makes me vomit. 00:45:13.269 --> 00:45:18.755 But if you told me I absolutely can't, I will want fish sticks. 00:45:18.755 --> 00:45:25.139 You'll try it. 00:45:25.139 --> 00:45:25.440 You'll try it. 00:45:25.440 --> 00:45:27.143 You'll be like, oh, now it looks interesting. 00:45:27.143 --> 00:45:31.009 Now let me try it, because I am a cat and an Aries moon and a Taurus. 00:45:31.009 --> 00:45:33.472 Don't tell any of those things, no. 00:45:35.875 --> 00:45:40.570 Me too, I'm a Taurus sun Aries moon Sag rising. 00:45:42.003 --> 00:45:43.367 Oh, I'm. 00:45:43.367 --> 00:45:47.369 Sag rising, so we both got a little bit of a crazies going on. 00:45:48.541 --> 00:45:59.527 Oh for sure, I've just learned to manage mine, but you let me loose and you're like what the hell's happening over there? 00:45:59.527 --> 00:46:00.592 Chaos, magic, that's what it is. 00:46:00.592 --> 00:46:01.918 Demon mode. 00:46:01.918 --> 00:46:10.750 Demons are spirits too speaking of demons? 00:46:10.929 --> 00:46:11.090 not. 00:46:11.090 --> 00:46:12.494 Yeah, let's go. 00:46:12.494 --> 00:46:15.041 What's something you? 00:46:15.041 --> 00:46:17.068 Wish was discussed more in the witch community. 00:46:18.190 --> 00:46:45.059 Demons, demons, liking demons, which, um, uh, free will and the ability to interrupt things, and the idea that we can have magic in a routine but we don't require magic in a routine to make it work. 00:46:45.059 --> 00:47:36.101 Um, also, the intro to energy that I created, uh, or that I utilize a lot in my workshops, um, I find that when we are deep diving into whether it's witchcraft or energy work or whatever kind of practice you're you're utilizing even yoga work, right, anything that you're showing up and

you're helping others with I find that if you are fatigued, you are basically draining your energy for everyone else, and so the intro to energy that I created was specific to making sure that you aren't draining yourself and allowing yourself to be programmed to bring in outside energy and be in a conduit, instead of being someone who gives their energy freely and is always constantly drained. 00:47:36.101 --> 00:47:47.286 So, as an energy worker, I found that a lot of people who were laying hands on other people or doing terror, readings and things like that just showing up and serving for people are generators. 00:47:47.286 --> 00:47:51.510 They're yeah, they're batteries, they're battery packing people, right. 00:47:51.510 --> 00:48:00.485 So they're like here I'll give you my energy to make you feel better for the next 48 to 72 hours and I'm going to feel like shit when I'm done with this. 00:48:00.485 --> 00:48:07.282 And I get that question, a lot like when I'm doing back to back clients and things like that am I drained? 00:48:07.282 --> 00:48:08.411 No, I'm not drained. 00:48:08.411 --> 00:48:15.657 I'm energized because I'm utilizing universal energy in order to do those things, which is what you're supposed to be doing. 00:48:15.657 --> 00:48:17.112 So, like Reiki one. 00:48:17.152 --> 00:48:36.157 When I learned Reiki, I'm a Reiki master, teacher, all of that but I learned it in a very unconventional way and in doing it in that way, I learned that Reiki one doesn't actually provide you with how to be a channel for the energy you're supposed to channel to heal people, right? 00:48:36.157 --> 00:48:37.692 It just says to do it. 00:48:37.692 --> 00:48:40.516 It doesn't say how to do it, right. 00:48:40.516 --> 00:48:50.396 So the programming that your body is unaware of, that lives inside of you, needs to be activated somehow, and that's what we call keys and codes and downloads and things like that. 00:48:50.396 --> 00:48:51.780 Just kind of depends on who you talk to. 00:48:52.570 --> 00:49:17.132 But when I do intro to energy, intro to energy is specific to like if, if you want to, if you want to do Reiki with me, you're going to learn how to, how to manage your energy and not utilize it when you're doing things like Reiki or energetic work, because you shouldn't be giving away yourself like a battery pack, like you will just be dead and drained all the time and that's how does that help anybody? 00:49:17.132 --> 00:49:23.373 I don't understand if you, if you do an energetic work and you're like man, I'm beat afterwards Like that. 00:49:23.373 --> 00:49:25.838 That's not what we're supposed to be doing. 00:49:25.838 --> 00:49:41.143 So when I taught, when I taught intro to energy, it was specific to if you're going to do any sort of magic work, energy work, anything like that, you are supposed to be connected in a specific way to allow that energy to come in, so you don't drain yourself. 00:49:41.143 --> 00:49:42.052 That's the point.

00:49:42.052 --> 00:49:45.521 So we don't talk about that and that pisses me off a lot. 00:49:45.521 --> 00:49:49.476 I don't want to be drained after hanging out with people. 00:49:49.476 --> 00:49:50.418 I don't want to do it. 00:49:50.418 --> 00:49:51.001 No, why? 00:49:51.001 --> 00:49:52.110 Ew? 00:49:52.110 --> 00:49:53.431 Stop taking my energy. 00:49:54.452 --> 00:49:57.998 That's rude why Ew Stop? 00:49:58.018 --> 00:49:58.717 taking my energy. 00:49:58.838 --> 00:49:59.219 That's rude. 00:49:59.219 --> 00:49:59.940 Get your own energy. 00:49:59.940 --> 00:50:04.344 So the moral of the story is come down to hot us and take the intro to energy class. 00:50:09.949 --> 00:50:10.170 Absolutely. 00:50:10.170 --> 00:50:10.713 I do believe we are doing. 00:50:10.713 --> 00:50:10.974 I don't know. 00:50:10.974 --> 00:50:11.576 I try and get ahold of Rachel. 00:50:11.576 --> 00:50:14.445 If anybody can get ahold of Rachel or if Rachel's listening to this, call me, because I'm not sure what's going on this year, but we're going to. 00:50:14.445 --> 00:50:16.976 Not sure what's going on this year, but we're going to get it together. 00:50:16.976 --> 00:50:21.753 I know last year we just kind of threw me onto the schedule in certain areas, which is fine. 00:50:21.753 --> 00:50:29.079 I'm down for the spontaneous whatever we can meet on the on the field and just do like a giant intro to energy. 00:50:29.079 --> 00:50:30.221 I'm cool with whatever. 00:50:30.300 --> 00:50:44.865 But yes, intro to energy is specific to learning how to not be fatigued when working with other people and tapping into your energy so that you can use it for things like truth testing in your body, pendulums, things like that again without draining yourself. 00:50:44.865 --> 00:50:47.853 So that is the main point of intro to energy. 00:50:47.853 --> 00:50:56.065 I started doing that a lot when I started teaching Reiki, because people would come to me and say, oh, I learned Reiki one, but it was just really. 00:50:56.065 --> 00:51:00.331 It was just like a lot of energy and really draining and I was like, oh, it shouldn't be draining. 00:51:00.331 --> 00:51:01.894 And they're like what? 00:51:01.894 --> 00:51:14.422 And I'm like, yeah, exactly, this is where we need to go back, to go forward, so that and I usually teach Akashic records, which is a very basic walkthrough into the Akashic records. 00:51:14.842 --> 00:51:19.260 If you don't know what Akashic records are, they are the past, present and future timeline. 00:51:19.260 --> 00:51:23.436 Anything that is an emotional pool. 00:51:23.436 --> 00:51:29.079 So it could be good, it could be bad, it could be anything right, so long as it had some sort of emotion tied to it. 00:51:29.079 --> 00:51:31.778 Those moments are stored in the Akashic records. 00:51:31.778 --> 00:51:36.597 Akashic records is specific to your human life, human life or earthly life. 00:51:36.597 --> 00:51:39.994 Right, because you could have been a cat, I'm sure you'd find it in there. 00:51:40.431 --> 00:51:41.233 I was probably a dog. 00:51:41.233 --> 00:51:44.405 I'm not really a cat. 00:51:45.971 --> 00:51:47.297 Cat, dog, squirrel, whatever. 00:51:49.472 --> 00:51:51.179 My last person I interviewed. 00:51:51.179 --> 00:51:56.617 Her specialty is Akashic Records, so that's come up a lot in the past five days. 00:51:56.677 --> 00:51:57.278 Oh, that's awesome. 00:51:57.278 --> 00:52:00.297 Ah, maybe you should be visiting. 00:52:01.130 --> 00:52:10.041 Maybe think about the three biggest influences on your practice, whether they are people or a book or whatever. 00:52:10.041 --> 00:52:13.016 Thank them for the influence. 00:52:14.623 --> 00:52:14.983 Yeah. 00:52:14.983 --> 00:52:36.853 So I want to say probably my aunt Lori for getting me into what she didn't even know she was doing, but she was leaving me in her apartment alone as a child and I went through every book I was a book hoarder and I was like, oh, this is a book I haven't read and it had spells and crystals in it. 00:52:36.853 --> 00:52:49.094 So thank you for that, because I'm blaming you for this whole thing, um, and she knows that. 00:52:49.094 --> 00:53:01.682 She knows that Um, and then also one of my biggest um, um, and then also one of my biggest um, one of the biggest people that I follow, uh, and I have. 00:53:01.682 --> 00:53:05.224 I had met her, I think, in probably 2017 or 2018. 00:53:05.224 --> 00:53:31.918 And she was also just starting out in tarot and crystals and things like that, and I took a very small course from her and we wound up doing multiple courses after that where she was growing, growing, growing, and I wound up growing, growing, growing alongside her and I'm actually back in one of her courses now because I took a break, but she's one that always makes me think outside the box and test things energetically versus just going with what I quote unquote. 00:53:31.958 --> 00:53:34.561 Know, um, and her name is Caitlin Diana. 00:53:34.561 --> 00:53:51.472 Uh, she is at CaitlinDianacom is uh, it's C-A-I-T-L-I-N-D-I-A-N-N-Acom, um, and she owns Healer Rising, which is a community a huge community now. 00:53:51.472 --> 00:53:52.835 Huge community now. 00:53:52.835 --> 00:53:59.594 Um, that has allowed me to grow and learn different modalities. 00:53:59.594 --> 00:54:02.121 Um, there's workshops. 00:54:02.121 --> 00:54:17.583 There are, um, foundational things like learning Akashics, learning courts and contracts um, just things that I was not really privy to when I was going down this road back in 2017. 00:54:17.583 --> 00:54:30.063 Um, and I really, really, really needed the community in order to believe enough in myself to do these things, and that was the community that helped me do it. 00:54:30.063 --> 00:54:41.364 And they're actually out of Canada, um, which was even more fun because I would go to workshops in Canada, so I got to learn to be myself in different situations. 00:54:41.844 --> 00:54:51.375

Yeah, really, that's where I started international traveling and it landed me to go to other places as well and it's just been such a beautiful ride with really interesting humans. 00:54:51.375 --> 00:54:51.757 So that's probably. 00:54:51.757 --> 00:54:58.777 She's very much at the top of my list and it doesn't really matter if you think she's very much at the top of my list, and it doesn't really matter if you think she's a cult or not, cause it really doesn't matter to me. 00:54:58.777 --> 00:55:03.418 Um, so everyone thinks everyone's a cult. 00:55:03.418 --> 00:55:08.913 I've been called a cult leader the last two years myself, so whatever it's you know, I don't. 00:55:09.032 --> 00:55:11.056 I don't even have followers, whatever. 00:55:11.056 --> 00:55:33.313 So, um, and then also, I would say honestly, rachel, rachel Minton, wherever you are, my dear goddamn, you have flipped a switch in me and we I don't know if you know the story of me and Rachel, but I had just opened my shop in June of 2020 and someone on the block they they ran noble earth. 00:55:33.313 --> 00:55:40.378 They were like a kombucha shop and they were going to go to the Anahatas 2020 and offer kombucha. 00:55:40.378 --> 00:55:52.856 I saw them post about Anahatas, realized how freaking close it was, and I just emailed her right away and I said hey, whatever you need, you need a volunteer, you need. 00:55:52.856 --> 00:55:55.106 That was all I could think of at that time. 00:55:55.106 --> 00:55:56.451 You need a freaking volunteer. 00:55:56.451 --> 00:55:57.273 I'm here to help. 00:55:57.273 --> 00:55:58.978 However you need, you need a sponsor. 00:55:58.978 --> 00:56:00.282 Let me figure it out. 00:56:00.282 --> 00:56:01.010 I'll work it out. 00:56:01.010 --> 00:56:03.297 I've literally been open for like two months, right. 00:56:03.297 --> 00:56:04.519 So this was like August. 00:56:04.519 --> 00:56:08.112 This was this was three weeks to Anahata's 2020. 00:56:09.074 --> 00:56:13.798 And immediately she called me and she's like I'm better on the phone, let's talk about this. 00:56:13.798 --> 00:56:14.679 What do you offer? 00:56:14.679 --> 00:56:15.581 What's going on, right? 00:56:15.581 --> 00:56:16.963 And we gelled. 00:56:16.963 --> 00:56:30.539 We probably talked for like an hour or two hours and she was like I have facilitators dropping out left and right because COVID and all of this stuff, and can you take a COVID test and what do you want to teach? 00:56:30.539 --> 00:56:33.405 And I was like I don't know, but I'm down to teach whatever, let's do this Right. 00:56:33.405 --> 00:56:34.306 So she put me in, I did. 00:56:34.306 --> 00:56:38.135 I was the only person who knew anything about Akashic, so she put me in for Akashic. 00:56:38.135 --> 00:56:42.052 That's the first time I taught that outside of, like my own environment. 00:56:42.793 --> 00:57:03.630 Um, and I think we maxed out maybe a hundred 125 people that year and it was so kind of like small and niche

01:09:26.310 --> 01:09:27.453 Hugged a goddamn tree. 01:09:27.453 --> 01:09:30.358 Okay, I'm passionate about it. 01:09:30.398 --> 01:09:34.012 Go do it thing number two is tell me a story. 01:09:34.012 --> 01:09:36.251 I know you just told me a story, but can you tell me another one? 01:09:36.331 --> 01:09:44.521 anyway, oh man, those are my best stories, oh shoot. 01:09:44.521 --> 01:09:53.975 So the first time I met Kim, she gave me this look like who the hell are you? 01:09:53.975 --> 01:09:55.079 Why are you in my way? 01:10:00.010 --> 01:10:02.835 Then I realized it was just your face. 01:10:02.835 --> 01:10:05.619 It is, it just does that it just does that. 01:10:05.800 --> 01:10:07.382 My face does that too sometimes. 01:10:07.382 --> 01:10:14.891 I'm sure I gave Janie and um everyone else who was in the shop last year I was afraid of you a fright, a fright. 01:10:14.891 --> 01:10:18.000 When I walked in, because I was, I was just confused. 01:10:18.000 --> 01:10:24.233 Okay, so the story on that, on here. 01:10:24.252 --> 01:10:26.760 This is my show and I can click this and make you go away. 01:10:26.760 --> 01:10:33.761 But in real life I'm afraid of you. 01:10:34.421 --> 01:10:38.472 So the story behind the shop last year at Anahata's was normally so. 01:10:38.472 --> 01:10:47.176 For the last three years I've run the shop essentially like where I've just come in and I've sold my wares and no one like we just do what we're going to do. 01:10:47.176 --> 01:10:50.895 So the year before I feel weird. 01:10:51.858 --> 01:10:52.619 Yeah, yeah. 01:10:52.619 --> 01:10:53.882 Well, I didn't know any. 01:10:53.882 --> 01:10:55.537 I didn't know

it was going to be any different. 01:10:55.537 --> 01:11:19.989 No-transcript. 01:11:19.989 --> 01:11:32.835 You need to be outside of the space in order to do other things and speak to other people and have a different experience at this Anahatas than you have been having being tied to the store constantly for those four days. 01:11:32.855 --> 01:11:33.676 That was me last year. 01:11:33.676 --> 01:11:36.703 I took that over for you, just never leaving. 01:11:38.131 --> 01:11:43.353 Well, maybe we can find a better balance, right, we can find a better balance of it, right. 01:11:43.353 --> 01:11:46.158 So that's kind of what it was. 01:11:46.158 --> 01:11:54.457 I was just like, oh okay, I don't have to be here, I can just leave my Venmo up here with the few items that I'm going to put up and then I can just skid out on, do whatever. 01:11:54.457 --> 01:11:56.100 And it was. 01:11:56.100 --> 01:12:07.380 It was for the betterment of myself in being more involved and being able to have conversations with more humans, outside of the idea of I'm selling things. 01:12:07.380 --> 01:12:10.692 Yeah, right, which was really really great. 01:12:10.832 --> 01:12:22.002 So at the end of it, I was thankful and grateful to have that experience and that space to do that, and I didn't realize just how much I had taken on in taking over that shop. 01:12:22.002 --> 01:12:23.957 Like you'd like, yeah, it's a lot. 01:12:23.957 --> 01:12:30.550 It is a lot because you're constantly dealing with folks who are coming in and they're the most beautiful people in the world. 01:12:30.550 --> 01:12:39.158 But at the same time, you're like, yeah, I'm getting asked that question again and you're on for four days. 01:12:39.158 --> 01:12:41.518 You're on, you know, you're masked up. 01:12:41.518 --> 01:12:52.532 That's why I have very specific like requirements when it comes to, like my accommodations and things like that, because at the end of that day, that eight hour day or whatever you decide to have in that shop. 01:12:52.532 --> 01:13:00.179 You're completely wiped and you need to figure out a way to regenerate and I honestly I needed a break from that last year. 01:13:00.179 --> 01:13:03.153 So we can better, we can find a better way to do it. 01:13:03.212 --> 01:13:03.514 This year. 01:13:03.514 --> 01:13:10.055 I'm not going to be in the building this year, no, okay, I'm sharing with Amberlee this year. 01:13:10.055 --> 01:13:12.880 Okay, that's fair. 01:13:12.880 --> 01:13:23.302 But think sarah and janie sarah at least will be yeah she'll still be there with all her pretty ceramics yeah, we'll get it figured out. 01:13:23.302 --> 01:13:32.100 We always do well, it wasn't a story, but you guys did get to hear some little little little inside information. 01:13:34.523 --> 01:13:43.677 You're welcome that's a story, I think that's a story, it's a story about how don't let your business take over your life. 01:13:43.677 --> 01:13:47.211 Yeah yeah, this is why we haven't been to a class in four years. 01:13:47.211 --> 01:13:53.921 We're like, oh, we're gonna sell things instead. 01:13:53.921 --> 01:14:00.815 You know, and it's, it's beautiful and it's great, and there's four of us, we can take shifts and then I'll have so much time. 01:14:00.836 --> 01:14:01.737 We didn't do that at all. 01:14:01.737 --> 01:14:02.658 A lie. 01:14:05.262 --> 01:14:07.238 What really should like we should have figured out. 01:14:07.238 --> 01:14:17.932 Yeah, we need to figure out a schedule if we're going to do that shit again, Like prior to shit again, like prior to, brought my niece, who didn't even have a business. 01:14:17.953 --> 01:14:22.820 She was just there to help but I could not wow because I am crazy no, I totally get it. 01:14:23.041 --> 01:14:34.735 I was the same and I, the year before I had brought my best friend, who normally helps me with my events, at my shop and the goal was to get her to a couple of the workshops and stuff like that to do. 01:14:34.735 --> 01:14:42.600 And I think the only thing she did because I kicked her out of the shop at one point was she did the Highland games because it was directly in front of the shop. 01:14:42.600 --> 01:15:02.261 She didn't go to anything else the entire four days and she wouldn't leave the shop because she's a control a type and she was like I've got to handle all the money and all of that stuff, so, yep, she would not leave where, and I don't want to be obliged to someone else for baby having my stuff. 01:15:03.182 --> 01:15:10.860 Yeah, yep,
