Magic, Medicine & Art

Today I'm answering some questions asked by my community (if you're not following me on IG at @magicmedicineandart make sure you do to have your questions answered!) and I'm riffing on:  1. How to honour your need to rest when the people around you don't get it. 2. How to make money from your passions especially when you're multi-passionate, &. 3. How to start a podcast. If you wanna keep in touch you can come along for the journey on the 'gram here: @magicmedicineandart.Or you can learn from me or work with me here.And you can put it right here *HUG*.

Today I'm talking about 5 ways you can have a medicinal effect in this world just by you existing. This is by no means THE way but I personally believe these are incredible ways you can meet humans where they are & herald in a new generations of humans that don't have to keep perpetuating pain & trauma because they haven't been shown another way to be.We're talking specifically about:1. Being authentic & transparent - meeting people where they are and walking alongside them, rather than speaking down to them, & being open about what life is really like as a human.2. Embracing being fully human & honouring our cyclical nature as animals, rather than continuing to prioritise & glamourise the aspects of our cycle that are outwardly productive.3. Acknowledging our own uniqueness & creating space for others to be who they are, even (& especially!) if that's different from us & if that's different from who they used to be.4. Becoming emotionally intelligent & learning how to hold & process our emotions so we don't keep projecting our pain onto others. This for me is probably THE MOST IMPORTANT way we can be a role model for other people, especially our precious young ones, so we don't keep inflicting cycles of avoidance & punishment because we've never been taught how to feel. *Trigger warning* I do talk about a case of historical sexual abuse in my family that has recently been processed through the Courts so if this is a sensitive subject for you, permission to skip this.5. Cultivating true self-love & self-worth, which is an on-going journey, but an incredibly meaningful one because we unconsciously put a lot of pressure & expectations onto others when we don't feel worthy as we are.If you wanna keep in touch you can come along for the journey on the 'gram here: @magicmedicineandart.Or you can learn from me or work with me here.And you can put it right here *HUG*.

Today we're switching lanes and I'm talking, from my personal experience, about breaking addictive habits & behaviours. Specifically talking about how it's not the *thing* we want - it's how we believe it will make us feel. AND how we can release the physiological grips of cravings if we're able to release the thought before it works it's way into our bodies. Some of this may sound controversial, but I can hand on heart say this has changed my life so I wanted to share it with you.  And if you wanna buy me a coffee 'cos you love my work in the world you can do so here.As always, if you're diggin' this episode be sure to connect with your homegirl on the 'gram so you can see all the shenanigans I'm up to on the daily or flick me a message at paystobeyou@gmail.com to work with me.

Let’s normalise having human emotions!  We're talking all about true emotional intelligence - or what I prefer to call emotional wisdom - and we're truly so much more magical & powerful for having emotions - not less!  Feeling  doesn’t mean that anything’s gone wrong. Feeling  doesn’t mean that you need to fix things right away. They can just mean you’re humaning perfectly. They can just mean that you’re actually processing life.  If you want to dive deeper into this, there's a whole masterclass on this in Potent. Check out here for more deets.

In this mini episode I'm riffing on the biggest thing that's screwed me over in my entrepreneurial path: my perfectionism & buying into this idea that there's a "right" way to do things - & thinking I MUST do it perfectly in order to succeed.  If you to join Potent, my upcoming 10 week experience, or you want more details, just click here.And if you wanna buy me a coffee 'cos you love my work in the world you can do so here.As always, if you're diggin' this episode be sure to connect with your homegirl on the 'gram so you can see all the shenanigans I'm up to on the daily or flick me a message at paystobeyou@gmail.com to work with me.

You wanna SHINE bright - not burn out trying!  I’m basically just teaching you everything I learnt the hard way & wished I had’ve known when I answered my soul calling in 2016 when my nervous system was freaking the F out & I was working against my energetic rhythms & my Human Design (my unique nature) & felt like I was throwing shit at the wall while simultaneously pushing shit up hill.  For more details or to join, just click here.And if you wanna buy me a coffee you can do so here.

I’ve always been lazy & I thought that was a bad thing! But honestly, toxic productivity ideals have left a lot of people feeling unsafe, over-whelmed & anxious, & it’s a never-ending hamster wheel! Besides, if you can only succeed by hustling your nuts off you won’t let yourself relax when you get there because unconsciously you’ll believe the only reason you got it is because you worked so hard so you won’t want to “waste all your hard work”. It’s never ending.  It’s not the fact that you’re lazy that holds you back from succeeding, it’s: the SHAME you have around it, & the BELIEF you need to be different in order to succeed.  Laziness can be EFFICIENT.  It’s not about needing to be insanely productive; it’s about being POTENT.   Speaking of which, if you want to join my latest group container Potent you can check it out here.  And if you wanna buy me a coffee you can do so here.  As always, if you're diggin' this episode be sure to connect with your homegirl on the 'gram so you can see all the shenanigans I'm up to on the daily or flick me a message at paystobeyou@gmail.com to work with me.
