118. DAO - What is Dao? with Medicine Women for Mothers and BAM Community Member Camden Lenore Torres

9/18/2023
I circle around the concept of the Dao a lot on social media, but I’ve never pinned down exactly what my relationship to Dao is and how significantly this connection has impacted my life and the lives of my clients. So I’m going to do my best here. I’m going to try to explain the unexplainable. On this episode, we delve into the intricacies of the spiritual practice of aligning with Dao, a subtractive journey that peels back layers of conditioning to reveal our true selves. We take a strong stance against the manipulation of spirituality often seen in modern times, as we navigate towards authenticity and self-awareness. This episode features the voice of BAM Community Member, Camden Torres. Camden's Dao is 'sensual', a word that encapsulates a plethora of emotions and experiences - the wild, the exploration, the creation, the mystery, and the awakening. Together, we explore the power of the Dao as a guide to make everyday decisions that align us closer to our authentic selves. We demonstrate the transformative power of being in touch with our senses, embracing discomfort, and unraveling the mysteries of life. Being a spiritual business mentor is not just about guiding others; it's about embodying the words that resonate with our souls. Today, we explore the transformative potential of embodying the Dao and how this practice radiates out into our lives, relationships, businesses, and communities. As we reach the end of our discussion, I invite you to explore Business Alchemist Mentorship, a 9-month journey towards cultivating a business that is driven by your Dao .

117. PEOPLE PLEASING: Integrating the Self-Abandonment Wound with Venessa Rodriguez and Lindsey Lockett

9/11/2023
If you’ve caught yourself bending over backwards to accomodate others only to feel drained and undervalued, this is a must-listen episode for you. My dear friends Nervous System Coach Lindsay Lockett and Intuitive Nourishment Guide Vanessa Rodriguez join me in a vulnerable chat about a survival mechanism we unwittingly latch onto - people pleasing. We dissect the roots of this behavior and its relationship to how we relate to the energetic resources of the Earth Archetype. Drawing from our personal journeys, we illuminate how this behavior stems from societal and parental conditioning, manifesting as self-abandonment. We shed light on how the expectation for spiritual entrepreneurs to prove their value through service has fueled this pattern and how it could be taking a toll on your wellbeing and your business.

116. CREATIVE WAYFINDING: The Alchemy of Creativity and Business with Writer, Creativity Coach + BAM Community Member Sarah Cook

9/2/2023
What if creativity was more than just an abstract concept, but rather a life force that reflects your soul? Join me as I traverse the dynamic landscape of running a business intertwined with creativity. I shed light on my recent integration work and the changes it has brought into my life. In this journey, I am not alone. I am accompanied by the inspiring Writer and Creativity Coach, Sarah Cook, an alumni of the business alchemist mentorship program, whose courage has sparked my transformation. We delve into the complexities of creativity, its impact on cultural heritage, and the challenges it presents in business. Sharing a heartfelt personal tale about my mother's creative voyage and the role colonization may have played in shaping our artistic sensibilities, I hope to inspire you to view creativity through a different lens. As we navigate through the ebb and flow of running a business, I share the concept of "good hard" work and how it can help create a life that mirrors not just your bank account, but your inner self as well. Towards the end, we unpack the intricacies of creativity, its ties with responsibility, and how it can become intertwined with our personal traumas. As I reveal my struggles with creative expression, and the internal pressure to deviate from the norm, I invite you to reflect on your relationship with creativity. Lastly, I reveal a significant rebranding of my business and how I'm inviting creativity into my space as a decolonizing ritual. So, are you ready to embark on this creative journey and redefine your relationship with creativity?

114. HUMAN DESIGN: Unlock Your Potential with Spiritual Therapist + Human Design Teacher Nadia Last

7/20/2023
I've invited one of my own teachers onto the podcast this week! Nadia Last is a Spiritual Therapist and Human Design Teacher who I've been studying with for the past several months in her Human Design Training program. When I decided to do a deep dive into the system, I knew I wanted to study with Nadia because her approach felt inviting and expansive rather than prescriptive. Nadia shares her journey of climbing the corporate world and feeling empty while chasing success on everyone else's terms. When she found the world of spirituality, human design and psychedelics, she gave herself the permission slip to fully lean into the fullest expression of who she is. This is the medicine she carries into her work with clients and students. Learn about the power of holding space for others, and how human design creates an individualistic blueprint for us to celebrate our own unique qualities. Listen in to this inspiring conversation and discover the power of human design in unlocking your potential.

115. DAO: Aligning with Your Soul's Purpose with Singer/Songwriter + BAM Community Member Meghan Aro

7/4/2023
Today is a conversation about surrender. Surrendering enough to allow the Universe to surprise you with a path that you could've never planned. Meghan started Business Alchemist Mentorship in 2021 and she's one of my favorite testimonials for the program even though she technically "failed". She didn't build an online coaching business like she had intended. She poured herself into asking one of the core questions I ask my students: "What is your soul's purpose?" and wound up making a complete shift into becoming a singer/song-writer. Meghan used to equate purpose with helping others through selfless service which led her down many career paths ranging from self-employed fitness coach to climbing the corporate ladder. She found herself burnt out and losing touch with her own passions. By reorienting to her soul's purpose, she was led down a journey of getting into touch with her artistic spirit through painting and music. Meghan's story is a tale of embracing her creative side, setting boundaries, and learning to manage personal capacity without losing oneself in the pursuit of dreams. She shares wisdom on the importance of taking a personal inventory of where our energy is invested and how this can lead to a clearer understanding of our lives. Whether you're at crossroads in your career, looking to rediscover your passions, or seeking to align your energy with your values, this conversation is just for you. I am so excited (and proud!) to share that Meghan has produced her first album and you'll get a chance to hear a sneak peek of her first song here. Megan Aro: ARO is an independent singer and song writer living in Los Angeles. As an artist, she’s open about her mental health and internal process, using her music as a tool to alchemize some of the darker parts of herself. Neurodivergence is a consistent theme that she explores in her art, giving a platform to the inner chaos that comes from living in a one-size-fits-all culture.

111. SPIRITUAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP: Chat with Kat - Pivoting When Business Grinds to a Halt

6/27/2023
Last year, my business ground to a halt for seemingly no explainable reason. This led to me venturing on a journey to explore relational health and safety with my business. This episode isn't about the financial rebound, but instead the spiritual truths that emerged from that challenging period. I'll unpack the profound lessons from this contraction, the deepening belief that business is a spiritual practice and how everything is intrinsically relational. Not only that, but I'll also share how our businesses, like our bodies, whisper, and sometimes scream for our attention through signs and symptoms. Imagine the power of being in a co-creative relationship to the entities in your life - your clients, your business, even your fears. In this episode, we journey together, exploring the transformative power of surrender in both business and personal life. I reveal the challenges of self-validation, the fear of disappointing those I love, and how this tight rope walk between love and fear led to a stronger connection with my business and myself. We'll delve into the heart of surrender as an expression of love and trust, and how it opened up unanticipated paths to co-create something magical with my business.

6/21/2023
Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the numerous transitions life throws at you? If so, you're not alone. I had the pleasure of chatting with Somatic Coach and Healer Sam Pfotenhauer, who shared her own experiences with navigating transitions like moving to different locations, changing careers, and ending a long-term relationship. I've been studying with Sam in her Human Design Training program that she collaboratively teaches with Nadia Last and I've been in awe of how she speaks of major transitions in her life with such grace and self-compassion. Together, we delve into the power of being honest with ourselves, and connecting with our body to guide us through big decisions. We discuss the importance of understanding that our skills and intelligence come from an innate place, and how to release our attachment to external validation. Sam also shares her insights on the significance of staying with intense feelings of fear and trusting yourself to know what to do with them. By the end of our conversation, you'll be inspired by Sam's wisdom and experiences, and gain valuable lessons for navigating your own transitions in life and business. Whether you're facing major changes or simply looking for a fresh perspective on embracing the unknown, this episode is a must-listen.

What if we could live in harmony with land, community, and business by weaving the concept of ecosystems into every relationship we nurture? This week, we welcome Yaya Rivera to the Empowered Curiosity Podcast, who shares her inspiring journey of cultivating life on a homestead called Río Cósmico. Drawing from Taino cosmology and her European roots, Yaya speaks about her arrival to Río Cósmico and how being in relationship with this land has informed her practices that ranges from how she mothers to how she runs her business. Together, we delve into the moral challenges of quantifying resources exchanged between people and land and how we can balance these effects with regenerative practices. Those practices begin with our own bodies. We talk about the effects of dopamine and adrenaline on productivity and the need to be mindful of the balance between effort and reward. We also share insights into embracing symptoms as communication from our bodies that we can use as a compass to point us towards alignment.
