But First, Alignment

In today’s episode, I talk about the 3 main ways we get into our own way before we audition & perform (these are soooo normal for us as humans! BUT they have a HUGE impact on the quality of: ✨our performance ✨our energy and how it’s received by the casting panel and audience ✨OUR experience - often one of self consciousness, overthinking, anxiety and cringe.    I talk about how we get into our own way in: 🤍our mind - our thoughts, level of clarity & focus 🤍our nervous system - whether we feel safe in our body or not 🤍our creative channel - whether our magic/ flow state/ innate story teller is free to come online and shine I also share with you guys one of my FAVOURITE tools that I have used time and time again throughout my career and life, to swiftly get OUT of my own way before auditions and before stepping onstage.

Today’s episode is inspired from a Gabby Bernstein quote I live by: 'Rejection Is Divine Protection & Redirection’, and that I have found to be profoundly true in my performing career. I share how I manifest my desires through rejections, and some personal audition stories of how things not working out at certain auditions ✨really✨ worked out for me 🪽 Including one of my first cruise ship auditions and my Tokyo Disney Audition (did you guys know I was actually cut in the last round of their dancer auditions?? And I went on to perform there for over 3 years 🤭✨ this story is WILD and I cannot wait for you to hear it!)   From my heart to yours,   ENJOY x   Join the Instagram fam 🫶✨⬇️  https://www.instagram.com/manifesting_with_grace?igsh=Z2o5bzhpanhsNWF6 DM ‘Mastery’ for 1:1 mentoring  @manifesting_with_grace . .

Today’s episode is a deep dive into the meanings we assign to events - being cut in auditions, contracts not being extended, not being chosen for certain roles or gigs etc, and how this significantly affects our confidence, self concept, perspective and ability to manifest our career dreams. I share my 3 step method for transmuting experiences that we’ve derived negative meaning and self doubt from - into our greatest power, confidence and clarity, and in turn, aligning swiftly with our career desires.   Tune in for stories that I share from my 11+ years as professional dancer, and to learn how emotional maturity, dismantling shame and being responsible for what WE make a situation mean is our greatest gift and manifesting ‘hack’ to expand our vibration and accelerate our paths to desired roles, contracts, and opportunities!   From my heart to yours, ENJOY x     Join the Instagram fam 🫶✨⬇️  https://www.instagram.com/manifesting_with_grace?igsh=Z2o5bzhpanhsNWF6 DM for 1:1 mentoring  @manifesting_with_grace .

Today’s episode is focused on one of our greatest resources - our energetic decision. AND backing it to create our desires from where we stand - regardless what’s in our current reality.  Utilising our co creative power to get out ahead of our manifestations, regardless of the ups & downs of audition season, to align with our hearts onstage desires.  In this episode I talk about: ✨the foundations of our energetic decision ✨how to back it & stabilise it to create your desires, regardless of how many times you’ve been cut or rejected this audition season ✨one of my own personal audition season stories, and being offered one of my dream contracts all with being cut in first rounds and falling on my a$$ through auditions (things that could have spiralled me, my self concept and my co creative power down, down down if I’d let them) and backing my own energetic decision again and again.   From my heart yo yours, ENJOY x   Join the Instagram fam 🫶✨⬇️ https://www.instagram.com/manifesting_with_grace?igsh=Z2o5bzhpanhsNWF6 DM for 1:1 mentoring  @manifesting_with_grace   Previous Potent Episodes Mentioned in Today’s Episode: 🎙️Manifesting Doll  Weight Loss | Emotional Eating | Manifestation | No Diet Babe | 172// Grace Used LOA To Drop Three Dress Sizes Without Obsession https://www.podbean.com/wlei/pb-27s7v-149ab00   Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/hartzmann/bamboo License code: Q1R78ULKX8XXHNAH  

Today’s episode is all about that feeling of being *on edge* whilst on a job, where your own deepest feelings of safety seem to be tied into how the people you’re working with perceive you & if your performance is ‘enough’… ’Is what I’m doing ok?

Will I be hired again?’… - we’ve all been there… In this episode I talk about: ✨The potent question to ask to discern if you’re picking up on other people’s stuff, or maybe unconsciously projecting your own ✨How to sharpen your own discernment & awareness of energetics and projections when on jobs & performing ✨A story from my own career of opening a new show with seemingly high stakes and an attack of people pleasing & self doubt ✨How to come back into your own Alignment, self assuredness, magnetism and clear, resourced channel (and my favourite tools for doing do)   From my heart to yours,   ENJOY x   Join the Instagram fam 🫶✨⬇️ https://www.instagram.com/manifesting_with_grace?igsh=Z2o5bzhpanhsNWF6 DM for 1:1 mentoring  @manifesting_with_grace   Previous Potent Episodes Mentioned in Today’s Episode: 8.

Today’s episode is all about that low key feeling of desperation, people pleasing & anxiety that we can be living with - on the jobs we’re rehearsing on, the auditions we’re going to etc - when we’re putting people in the industry on a pedestal. Aka who are you making ‘God?’ (And for many of us this happens unconsciously).   I talk about: ✨What does it mean to put someone one in a pedestal?   ✨How to identify that we are putting someone on a pedestal based on how we FEEL (in the rehearsal room, audition room etc)   ✨Why we can consciously or unconsciously do this    ✨How to shift our perspective & energy out of this dynamic and into our own alignment, power, inner guidance & sovereignty to thrive in our careers 💫   From my heart to yours,   ENJOY x   Join the Instagram fam 🫶✨⬇️ https://www.instagram.com/manifesting_with_grace?igsh=Z2o5bzhpanhsNWF6 DM for 1:1 mentoring @manifesting_with_grace   Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/hartzmann/bamboo License code: Q1R78ULKX8XXHNAH    

Today’s episode is all about when we are craving for people around us, especially authority figures in the industry, to compliment us/ approve of us/ affirm us e.g choreographers, the casting team, dance captains, colleagues etc in order for us to feel safe, seen & approved of.   - In other words, outsourcing our self esteem & inner child parenting to OTHERS around us…   In this episode I talk about:   ✨How this can result from inner child wounds/ experiences that brought up shame for us in childhood.   ✨Why we aren’t trusting ourselves and are looking so much to others to affirm us.   ✨Why entering the professional industry can feel like the rug has been pulled out from under you when transitioning from training & teen years into the adult world of the industry   ✨How to shift allll of this & feel confident, empowered trusting of yourself and whole within yourself, as you navigate the industry (and how to take your power back to give your inner child what they really need from YOU 🤍)   From my heart to yours,   ENJOY x   Join the Instagram fam 🫶✨⬇️ https://www.instagram.com/manifesting_with_grace?igsh=Z2o5bzhpanhsNWF6

Today’s episode is all about the energetics of not settling - when the Universe is testing you around the manifestation you’re calling in ✨   In this episode I talk about one of my own personal experiences with not settling -   turning down a perfectly good contract offer after a successful audition - (a DREAM offer for the me from a few years prior) because I had outgrown certain things and my desires had expanded - even when I had zero other offers or evidence that my manifestation was coming..   I cover: ✨being tested by the Universe around settling for less than what matches your truthful desire ✨having faith in the Universe, your manifestations and yourself as a co creator ✨how to identify when our minds are projecting scarcity & fear - so that we stay in our power and choose not to settle ✨being embodied in your self worth & holding your energetic boundaries for what you DESIRE to fill the space From my heart to your,   ENJOY x   Join the Instagram fam 🫶✨⬇️  https://www.instagram.com/manifesting_with_grace?igsh=Z2o5bzhpanhsNWF6 DM for 1:1 mentoring  @manifesting_with_grace   Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/hartzmann/bamboo License code: Q1R78ULKX8XXHNAH  

Today’s episode is a short & potent tune up for your vibration and mindset and a hug for your heart.  Our BIG career & life dreams will often come with the ‘messy middle’ - where it feels like you’re taking aligned action, devoted to your inner work, energetic alignment & mindset rewiring, yet it feels like NOTHING is progressing in your reality.  This is where our faith is tested.  In ourselves, in the Universe, in our desires. I share some of my own BIGGEST manifestations: ✨In career as a professional dancer & performer ✨In my relationship to food/body image/ weight fluctuations ✨In love and partnership And the messy middles that preceded them. May today’s episode call you home, to your deep inner guidance & knowing that you ARE on track, your tipping point where your reality catches up with your desires & embodiment IS coming (and is likely closer than you think ✨😉)   From my heart to yours, ENJOY x   Mentioned in this episode: •My guest episode on Barbara Orban’s podcast ‘Manifesting Doll’  https://www.podbean.com/ew/pb-27s7v-149ab00 •Join the Instagram fam  https://www.instagram.com/manifesting_with_grace?igsh=Y2plOWRxMWxydWE5&utm_source=qr . .

The things we desire the most, can be the things we separate ourselves from the MOST. How?
