That idea that what's the right next step can keep us stuck. We are, we are powerful creators, and we get to decide who we are, who we want to be and how we want to move forward. This season on the living out love podcast, we are focusing on you, who you are, what motivates you, what you're here to contribute, and how you can expand will be utilizing my leadership skills and spiritual connection. diving deep into the Enneagram and astrology. Listen every week to become intimately aware of yourself, only then can heal and grow. Let's get to work loves. Fellow loves, you are just always going to hear the same two things for me, hello, loves, and I'm so excited to be. This is part two of our two-part series on asking who you are from the perspective of curveballs and life doing what life does and that feeling of things coming at us. And what do we do now? You know, in the first episode, I concluded with some guidance about how we make those decisions. And I suggested that if you can marry your heart and your mind, your emotions and your logic, that's a good way to go. If you can do what's calling you forward, that's a good way to go. If you can choose the expansion that you most desire, that's a good way to go. If you ask yourself, what would be the most loving direction to go in? That's a good way to go. And remember that what is, quote, best for you is what is best for everyone. We're all connected their divine intelligence at work. And there's not just one perfect option. I think our brains do that way of keeping us safe. I talked about that and episode one. But that idea that what's the right next step can keep us stuck. We are we are powerful creators, and we get to decide who we are, who we want to be and how we want to move forward. Alright, so today we're talking about how we do because often we make choices that feel right, they feel in alignment, but they're still not comfortable. We make choices that feel like they're the only way forward or they are our best shot. But we still have to, you know, reckon with things, we have to reckon with it even if it's in alignment, even if we're happy with our reasons, even though it's obvious. It's the next step. There's a reckoning, it's like, okay, my next step is grad school, I got a fair, I'm gonna pay for it. You know, I gotta figure out how I'm gonna feel like maybe no one in my family even got an undergrad degree. And now I'm going to go to grad school. And what's that going to mean? There are reckonings when it comes to our identity, when we make big decisions. So, for me, this reckoning has been about offering some new products and services. I'm not changing my business, I'm expanding my business, but it still has been a reckoning. And it's not what I thought I would be doing. But neither was mediumship. And much of my life is not the way I thought it would be. It's very different. And yet, that's been part of the reckoning. So, I've asked myself the question like, who am I? And what is this business? What's the business identity? And what is the business here for what am I really here for? And the truth is, this is the like, the honest truth that most people don't want to say out loud. I sometimes ask myself those questions, to avoid having to take action. You know, it doesn't feel like that in the moment. Right? It feels like I'm just doing my due diligence, trying to get clear on my motivation and trying to, you know, really search things out. But really, the truth is, sometimes I'll stay in that soul searching mode so that I don't actually have to move forward into the great unknown where it's scary, you know? So last episode, I asked, who are you? Who are you now? And this episode, I'm kind of asking Who do you want to be? What does that look like for you? I want to be I want to be a person that gave it my All, I don't want to have to look back and say that I didn't try, I don't want to wish I had tried something, you know, I, I'm comfortable with failure, I'm learning to be comfortable with success, but I'm comfortable with failure. But for both of those things you have to try I would rather fail doing than fail. By letting the pitch go by, by just not swinging at the curveball. So, I want to try and I, I want to the best of my ability to live my purpose. And it's, it's been very clear to me that my purpose is to help people heal. when I very first started this business, it was healing, clarity and inspiration, those were my guiding visions. And you could also kind of look at those is like Past, Present Future, but it's healing, clarity and inspiration. All of those things lead to more love. The only thing like love is all around us, it is everything, but we feel separate from love. And healing. Reduce reduces that separation. Clarity, and inspiration help us move forward into greater connection. So healing, clarity, inspiration, that always leads to love that that's what I'm here to do. Well, that's part of it, you know, I'm a mom, I have other things with it in terms of the way that I help people. That's, that's what I'm here to do. And I'm here to do it my way. You know, with me, I have the leadership skills and the organizational development skills and the emotional intelligence stuff. So, I want to teach all that stuff. I want to talk about that those things. And I also want to use my intuitive gifts. And I want to help people connect with their loved ones, if that's what they need. I want to use whatever I have at my disposal to help people he'll gain clarity and inspiration to increase love, whether that's their experience of love, their expression of love, their awareness of love. That's what I'm here for. We all we learn new skills so that we can be better humans, more loving humans, we heal ourselves emotionally, mentally, physically, so that we can have more access to live so that we don't feel a separation from spirit. And whatever. however you define that, you might define that from your highest self from you from your moral compass, you might define that as God, however you define that. We want to be our best selves. Why do we want to be our best selves, because that is the closest we have to enlightenment to Nirvana. That's the closest thing that humans will likely get. It's becoming your best self. And your best self does not carry wounds. That would be a distraction and a waste of energy. So, we need to heal. So, everything I do is coming back to that. It's coming back to that healing so that you can get to love learning a skill so that you can practice love, with more mindfulness with more awareness with more precision learning so that you can have a different understanding and awareness of love and where you might have access to it that you hadn't seen before that you hadn't taken advantage of before. So, this is who I am, I want to I want to try things. I don't want to wish I had done something. I would way rather try and fail and decide, okay, I'm not going to do that again, then not have tried at all. When the curveball comes, I want to swing at it. So, when it comes time for you to make decisions, you want to consider who you are, as well as who you want to be. And then move forward. Don't overthink it swing at the ball and try to get to first base. The I'm not the only one. I'm not the only one that you know we call it analysis paralysis. I Some call you sometimes call it like it's my soul-searching delay. It's my soul-searching sabotage actually. Because that sort of internal reflection, although uncomfortable, feels safer to me than trying new things. So

So, here's the personal update. I've decided to expand my offers and my dot love world. I will still be offering readings, doing workshops, all that jazz, but I'm now offering more direct physical healing services. So, for those of you that are new to me Your if you just haven't memorized my whole history, when I years ago, I did a Reiki training with Marissa Morris from Hay House. And while I did, several, I did lots of Reiki training. And it was in that training, that my gifts as a psychic and as a medium really began to get fine-tuned. And so, I had such a gift for those things that I didn't really think I was a talented healer. And so, I focused on the things that were easier for me. For better or worse, it's been good, it's been fine. But I have felt led, I've been guided, that it's time for me to start offering Reiki services for people that need them, I'm offering them at a much lower price point than my readings because I have much less experience. Be that as it may like I have no attachment to you getting Reiki services for me, if you want to go with someone that has more experience, please do. But I have felt guided that it's time for me to step back into that role for those that need it just like the mediumship. Like if that's what you need, then that's what I want to have, I want to give you everything that's in my tool belt. And when I can't do it, I want to find a referral for you. I'm here to help people here. I'm here to do it my way. But that will not always mean that I'm the provider of the healing. And if you ever find somebody that thinks that they are the healer of all things, please run. Run fast. So, I'll be offering Reiki healings. And those are live on the website. I'm also offering a new product that is for physical healing. And this is going to tie back to the WHO ARE YOU question? I found a wellness product that is essentially energy medicine. It utilizes phototherapy, which is you know, light therapy. And the light technology elevates the flow of your body's own energy. So, it's a lot like energy healing, except for it uses a device to help you with that. And it's different than you know, taking a supplement or putting out a topical treatment. It's just like, if you go outside and you get vitamin D, because the light does something to us this this product is reflecting our own light to help us heal and regenerate. Which it sounds I don't know too well to be true. I mean, when I first learned about it, I kind of did the yeah, whatever. But also, Pluto went into Aquarius, it's out now, but it's about to be an Aquarius for a long time. And this is just the beginning of the medical and we'll just technology, but this is the beginning of the technological advancements that we're going to be seeing in the next 20 to 30 years. We're gonna see some, yeah, advancements in innovation, medical and travel and certainly in AI. So, because I had that understanding about the astrology I was like, Alright, I'm gonna give this a shot because this is what's supposed to be happening. We're supposed to be seeing new medical advancements. So, I tried them, and they work. They work yeah, I, my family tried them. And they had some, I mean, I want to call them miraculous experiences. Everyone that I've given them to has wished they found them sooner. So, I never thought I would be selling something that wasn't of my creation and wasn't my services. But I wrestled with it because its helping people heal. And that's what I'm here for. So yeah, so I've been wrestling with it. And I've tried to really home in on that question of what is authentically me and that's been a question I've had for a while, and I think behind that there's sort of this am I allowed question? Am I allowed to combine you know, astrology and Enneagram on my podcast? Am I allowed to talk about leadership inside of a you know, healing wounds masterclass. Am I allowed to talk about politics in the spiritual audience realm, you know, there's that question for me. And I Yeah, so I've really done some soul searching around this, this whole two-episode series, but who are you? What? Do you swing? Or do you not swing has been based on my journey with this wellness product. And I ultimately decided I'm here to help people heal. That is what I'm here to do. And prior to finding, you know, the energy medicine I was being guided to get back into, I got back into hypnosis A while back, but getting back into the energy medicine and really forget focusing on that working on that. So, I feel like Spirit just kind of teed me up for this. So yeah, so, was it? Is it authentic? For me? I believe it is everyone that I've given them to, has bought has continues to buy them because they work. And I wrestled with it because I didn't imagine that I would be selling something that was not of my creation, that was in a large part outside of my control. But it is authentic, because my family has had miracles. My husband and I have had really positive experiences. It's a good product, you know, I wouldn't be here if it wasn't, I wouldn't have considered it if it wasn't. And so, I decided it was authentic to me. And for a while I wrestled with, okay, I'm going to sell these products, and I'm going to have my dot love business, and they're going to be two totally different things. Which would be fine. But there are people that have come to me in pain, physical chronic pain, and if I can help them, it wouldn't it be unloving of me not to offer, you know what I mean? So, I'm just making things available. Earlier, I mentioned that we can question things and question ourselves as a way of delaying as a way of not having to move forward. Because change is scary. And it inherently feels dangerous. And that's very much what this feels like for me. Oh, no, what will people think? And then, you know, I get past that. But some, sometimes, it seems as though, you know, we work really hard to cultivate a certain image, a certain reputation, a certain understanding of what people can expect from us. And it can feel disengaged, disingenuous when you expand that vision. So, I was wrestling with how do I do I offer things I haven't offered before? Is that genuinely me. And then I just realized, I get to decide, like, I get to decide what to genuinely me. You get to decide what is genuinely you, you get to decide who you want to be. There's not a one single right way. There's lots of right ways. And you are your Creator to some extent, and you get to decide. So, you know, earlier I told you, I don't want to be a person that looks back and wishes she had tried and that I'm a healer. That's been part of my guiding vision since the beginning. And so, this is what I'm doing. I'm it's one more tool in my tool belt for your healing. It is one more way that we can close the gap. Less than the separation between us and the divine. Whether it's emotional healing, mental cognitive healing, energetic healing or physical healing. Anytime we have a wound, it keeps us separate.

Healing our wounds leads us back to love every time whether we are cognizant of that or not. So, yeah, I'm scared and it's I did. And a little bit a little bit at peace. But it's, you know, time for me to come out of the healing closet and pick up Reiki where I left off and offer every tool on my tool belt. And you will choose the ones that you need, or you won't. That's the way it's supposed to you. So, I am thrilled that you're here love really genuinely everybody that listens now, and in the future, I'm honored. I mean, I, I try really hard to make sure it's worth your time. But I'm honored that you're here and that you're choosing to spend your time this way. So, remember, you get to decide who you are, who you want to be. And I hope that you choose expansion, and that you choose love and that you choose healing. And I honor that that will look different for all of us. And I honor that for some of us we will, these decisions will be easy and there'll be gut and instantaneous and some of these will be laborious and grueling and painful. But life is gonna throw pitches and you get to swing or not swing. That's your decision. I'm here for it loves. I'm here for your healing. I'm here for your expansion. I'm here to support you and hold space in whatever it is you choose. And wherever it is that your journey takes you next. Have a great week love. Bye. Oh, I totally forgot if you want to learn.
