It took me a while to fully make that leap and trust that if I
Speaker:put all of my energy and love into the creation of a business
Speaker:that would serve the world that it would actually work and that
Speaker:it would actually provide enough for me to live the lifestyle
Speaker:that I want to live.

Speaker:into it. I have an amazing woman here with me today, Katie J. She
Speaker:helps spiritual women manifest their desires without the
Speaker:struggle of limiting beliefs, doubt and fear. And I am so
Speaker:excited. We chatted a little bit before and I know you guys are
Speaker:going to love this episode. Hey, Katie, how are you doing today?
Speaker:I am doing wonderful. jameelah. Thank you so much for having me.
Speaker:I am so blessed that we got connected on Facebook. I really
Speaker:am excited for this chat. So let's just dive right in. And
Speaker:let's just kind of talk about your story. What like you are it
Speaker:have this amazing business right now where you help women really
Speaker:overcome those limiting beliefs and with your manifestation
Speaker:circles. Now. Can you bring me back to the beginning of your
Speaker:entrepreneurship journey? were you working in a nine to five
Speaker:before? How did you kind of get to where you are?
Speaker:Yeah, so I was working a nine to five, my entrepreneurship
Speaker:journey. I would actually, you know it, my entrepreneurship
Speaker:journey was a part of my greater spiritual journey, I would say,
Speaker:which started back in 2015. I remained in the corporate world
Speaker:for about a month after my first spiritual awakening. And then I
Speaker:shifted to working at retreat centers. And I was working at a
Speaker:retreat center outside of Austin, Texas, and living with a
Speaker:woman who ran her own online coaching business coaching
Speaker:women, women's fitness. And I was just so inspired by how much
Speaker:energy she put into her business. And I was so just
Speaker:taken aback by the results that her clients were getting over
Speaker:online space entirely. And in 2017, I went to Peru, and was
Speaker:sitting in this Plaza, and connected to Wi Fi, and fully
Speaker:realizing that I could do everything that I do from my
Speaker:desk, at the retreat center, from anywhere in the world and
Speaker:realize that there was this wide open possibility for my life and
Speaker:what I could create, if I set my mind to it. So from then on,
Speaker:things started happening, I was introduced to people who started
Speaker:planting ideas in my head and started to tell me to look into
Speaker:this type of business or that type of business. And I was all
Speaker:over the place, jumping around in all different sorts of online
Speaker:spaces that I had no business, like drop shipping, and all
Speaker:sorts of things that were just like felt really unaligned. And
Speaker:I just kept searching and searching and searching and I
Speaker:hired coaches and industry experts to help me kind of
Speaker:figure out where I should be in this online space if I could be
Speaker:at all. And it took me it took me a while to fully make that
Speaker:leap and trust that if I put all of my energy and love into the
Speaker:creation of a business that would serve the world, that it
Speaker:would actually work and that it would actually provide enough
Speaker:for me to live the lifestyle that I want to live and support
Speaker:my boxer puppy. He's five he's not actually a puppy. He's the
Speaker:only thing I have to support right now. You know. We don't
Speaker:need a lot You know, and things just started slowly opening up
Speaker:for me, I tried things I tried courses I tried, meaning
Speaker:launching and leading courses, I tried one on one coaching, I
Speaker:tried group programs, I tried all different sorts of things,
Speaker:just figure out what felt good. And from each time that I tried
Speaker:something new in my business, I took what worked and I let go of
Speaker:what didn't work. And I took what worked and I let go, what
Speaker:didn't work in everything that I made, I invested back into my
Speaker:business and back into the the parts of my business that were
Speaker:helping it to grow, helping it to connect with clients helping
Speaker:to sign clients. And that included a lot of coaching, a
Speaker:lot of mentorship, and getting that one on one support was
Speaker:really crucial for me in my journey.
Speaker:So what how So from what you're saying it sounds like there was
Speaker:kind of a lot of failure on your road to where you are now. So
Speaker:can you kind of dive into that a little bit. Um, and how you took
Speaker:that failure at that time, how you take failure now and because
Speaker:I know that a lot of entrepreneurs out there people
Speaker:who are, you know, striving to create something that very
Speaker:discouraged when that initial idea doesn't work the way that
Speaker:they pictured it, you're gonna dive into that aspect a little
Speaker:bit.
Speaker:Yeah, it might have a lot to do with the fact that what I am
Speaker:coaching, what I am holding space for, and teaching is
Speaker:manifesting, which, if anyone who's died, who has dove into
Speaker:the world of manifesting, has probably realized that it's
Speaker:mostly a fancy word for healing. And so and then a lot of that
Speaker:healing is, we were required to look at that failure and to look
Speaker:at those stories that we were telling ourselves that made it
Speaker:so that that failure happened, or, or that there were parts of
Speaker:that situation that just didn't feel good. And I can dive into
Speaker:more details like I was, I remember launching a course that
Speaker:I just did not feel aligned with. And I did it anyway,
Speaker:because I knew that there was something to learn about the
Speaker:launch process. And actually, I didn't know that my business
Speaker:coach told me that I'm not gonna didn't like, that was my idea.
Speaker:She was like, you should continue, go all the way through
Speaker:the launch process. So you can figure out what you do and don't
Speaker:like. And what I didn't like, was the negative self chatter
Speaker:that came up during it, it was less about, oh, I don't want to
Speaker:write this email sequence, or Oh, I don't want to promote
Speaker:myself on Instagram, because I gotten really comfortable doing
Speaker:that, at that point. It was just this, you know, this product
Speaker:doesn't feel aligned. And so therefore, I'm going to be open
Speaker:to the guidance for what is the next product that that maybe is
Speaker:more aligned, because I'm seeing, I'm seeing her launch a
Speaker:course and doing really, really well. And I'm seeing him launch
Speaker:a course and do really, really well. So surely, I should be
Speaker:doing courses too. But when you actually go through that
Speaker:process, which I'm really glad that I did, I was able to
Speaker:realize like it wasn't the launch or any of those nuances.
Speaker:It was like the actual product. So Okay, next launch, or at
Speaker:least between those two launches, leaving my really
Speaker:leaning into my spiritual practices and inner guidance and
Speaker:asking, like, what is it that I should be offering? And what is
Speaker:it that's gonna feel really, really, really aligned?
Speaker:So do you have any tips for people who it's I get these
Speaker:questions all the time, like, How do I know? What is my inner
Speaker:guidance? How do I know? What's my intuition speaking? And
Speaker:what's maybe just my ego or my limiting beliefs speaking? So do
Speaker:you have any tips for how to kind of discern between those
Speaker:voices?
Speaker:Oh, absolutely. So the best way that I like to really think
Speaker:about it is just this old school cartoons where there's like a
Speaker:devil on the shoulder, and an angel on the shoulder. And
Speaker:that's a little dramatic, right? We don't want to say that the
Speaker:ego is the devil because our ego is not the devil. The ego is not
Speaker:the is not bad, right? our ego has is here to keep us alive and
Speaker:keep us safe. And that's great and good and we need it. But
Speaker:it's not here to allow us to step outside of our comfort zone
Speaker:or to really flourish in life and thrive and ask for and
Speaker:receive a life that we've never lived before. Right That's not
Speaker:the egos job And so the ego will always sound like fear. It will
Speaker:always sound like fear, like scarcity, like not enough, like
Speaker:guilt, like shame, you know, that's that voice. If it sounds
Speaker:like that, then it's gonna be the ego. But if it sounds like
Speaker:it's coming from a place of love, then it's your higher
Speaker:self, then it's your inner guidance, then it's your
Speaker:intuition. Because your inner guidance doesn't say, get off
Speaker:this plane, it's gonna explode. Like, that's not how it guides
Speaker:you, it will just say, you know, what, I think you should cancel
Speaker:that flight. You know, well, in advance, it will guide you well
Speaker:in advance of those things. Like, that's the beauty of
Speaker:trusting it is, it feels like love. Always. And that's, that's
Speaker:the beauty of, of the distinction, too, is that we all
Speaker:we know that what that feels like in our bodies.
Speaker:Yeah. And I also feel like the ego is kind of more just like,
Speaker:looking for attention. Like, it's kind of like jumping up,
Speaker:like, look at me, it can be loud, and it can be very
Speaker:obnoxious. Whereas that inner guidance is not necessarily so
Speaker:loud. It's not so noxious, but it's steady. It's just that
Speaker:consistent feeling over time. That's like, hey.
Speaker:Yeah, exactly. So I'm in a place in my life right now, where I'm
Speaker:like, okay, you know, despite the fact that everything that's
Speaker:going on with Coronavirus, and stuff, like, I really can't,
Speaker:could live anywhere that I wanted to. And I've realized
Speaker:that and I've kind of been feeling the need to move but not
Speaker:know where to go. And so I've just been, like, releasing that
Speaker:question and asking for guidance. And I have noticed
Speaker:that Ooh, ooh, ooh, you know, like, kind of popping up here
Speaker:and there, and I'm just, okay. Well, I see you, you know what,
Speaker:I'm not gonna make any decisions yet. And then a few days later,
Speaker:oh, oh, I'm still here telling you to go here.
Speaker:That's so funny that you bring that up, because that's actually
Speaker:how we landed in Arizona is we I had been feeling for a while,
Speaker:like, we needed to move we needed, you know, something to
Speaker:happen. And so I started asking for signs, and just all kinds of
Speaker:crazy stuff just started happening. Like, there was a
Speaker:farmers market that we used to go to all the time. It's our
Speaker:favorite activity we did every Saturday. And we got kicked out
Speaker:of the farmers market, because I had my purse in my wagon. And
Speaker:the lady told me, I needed to carry my purse because someone
Speaker:was going to steal it. And I told her, oh, that's okay. My
Speaker:child's also in my way. And she like, told us that we weren't
Speaker:allowed to come back to the farmers market. And I was like,
Speaker:This is the weirdest situation I've ever had in my entire life.
Speaker:So I started reflecting on it. And I had this like, download,
Speaker:like, Oh, this is one of those signs that you're asking for.
Speaker:Like, it doesn't make any logical sense. This is one of
Speaker:those things that you're asking for. And then I don't know if
Speaker:you're into Angel numbers or anything like that. But these
Speaker:numbers just kept appearing. And that was when I first got into
Speaker:Angel numbers. I'd never looked up a number before. For some
Speaker:reason, my intuition was like, look it up. And he was like, you
Speaker:need to move right now. And I was like, Oh,
Speaker:okay.
Speaker:So I love that because that's, yeah, that's exactly how we
Speaker:ended up here. It was just over time consistently, kind of
Speaker:seeing these signs and asking for more confirmation, and then
Speaker:finally just taking that leap and be like, okay, I hear you.
Speaker:We're going.
Speaker:Yeah, and so many people are scared that they're gonna miss
Speaker:the sign. You know, they're like, what if I missed it? Like,
Speaker:what if that was it? It's like, you're gonna get it? Yeah,
Speaker:you're in like, safe loving hands. Think of it that.
Speaker:Exactly. And for me, like, because I've definitely been in
Speaker:that point, I'm sure you have as well. where like, was that a
Speaker:sign? Is that a sign? Oh, no. And how does it ask for more?
Speaker:Like, if you don't ask, you know, like, if you need
Speaker:clarification, like, just be like, Hey, what's that assigned?
Speaker:Can you give me another sign to confirm? Like, there's nothing
Speaker:wrong with just point blank asking that?
Speaker:Yes, exactly. I met this very witchy woman in Costa Rica one
Speaker:time who was telling me all about her games that she was
Speaker:playing with the universe. And she was like, I asked for a
Speaker:coconut yesterday, and I got to Oh,
Speaker:do you? That's a great point there. Do you do gamification
Speaker:with your life? You know,
Speaker:it's funny. It's something I just got started doing, which is
Speaker:crazy because I teach manifestation. So you would
Speaker:think that that'd be something that I mean, now. It's something
Speaker:that I'm playing with and I'm encouraging my clients To play
Speaker:with to, but like the other day, or not the other day, it was a
Speaker:month ago, April 1 that I moved into this current apartment. And
Speaker:that weekend, I said, I want flowers from flowers, you know.
Speaker:And then the day that I moved in to my, this house, my landlord
Speaker:was planting flowers all in her garden beds. And I was like,
Speaker:Yeah, not how I had imagined them, but I'll take it, you
Speaker:know?
Speaker:I love that. Yeah, you. Um, it's something that I'm just now
Speaker:starting to get into as well. I have. I mean, I have, I guess
Speaker:I've kind of been doing it for a while I just didn't realize that
Speaker:I was doing it like a big one for me is, when I'm driving. I
Speaker:have done this for a while I didn't realize like, I had no
Speaker:idea. But I would just think, you know, green light. Like
Speaker:whenever I'd be coming up near a green light, I always hit green
Speaker:light. And every time that I'm like, consciously driving, and I
Speaker:think that like I always hit green lights. And so like, I
Speaker:have been trying to incorporate that more into my practice
Speaker:religious, I'm taking things a little less seriously, because
Speaker:that is definitely something that I personally had struggled
Speaker:with. Just over my journey, I have, you know, felt this need
Speaker:to rally overcompensate? I guess because I do get a lot of flack
Speaker:based on my history and how I've gotten to where I am. And so I
Speaker:feel like oh, I need to show up, like extra, you know, business
Speaker:like or extra masculine to be able to fit into the marketing
Speaker:space. And lately, you know, over I mean, really, over the
Speaker:past couple of years, have really been diving into more of
Speaker:the flow and the feminine and really bringing in that into my
Speaker:business as well. Like I did. I did a a manifestation exercise.
Speaker:I don't know if you've heard of the five by
Speaker:55.
Speaker:manifestation challenge. Yeah, it's, it's a pretty big one.
Speaker:And I,
Speaker:I decided to try it with with my marketing business. I've done a
Speaker:lot of the manifestation stuff with my coaching business, but
Speaker:for some reason wasn't transferring it over to my
Speaker:marketing business. And so I decided to try it for my
Speaker:marketing agency. And then within two weeks, I signed on to
Speaker:new like high ticket clients. I was like, Oh, hello.
Speaker:Love it.
Speaker:It works all around.
Speaker:I have never fully committed to the 555 or 333. method. Three,
Speaker:like when you write something 33 times for three days, or
Speaker:whatever it is. Yeah, okay. Yeah. I've never fully committed
Speaker:to it. Maybe I'll give it a try.
Speaker:Yeah, you should definitely definitely try it. There have
Speaker:been a couple times where I had tried it in the past, but I made
Speaker:it to like two days or three days or whatever. I'm starting
Speaker:to
Speaker:get tired.
Speaker:Yeah, so finally I actually
Speaker:because of Tick tock,
Speaker:so I've been like really into Tick Tock lately. And I decided
Speaker:to make this video about the challenge. And I was like, Oh, I
Speaker:have to do it now. And because I had that accountability from the
Speaker:TIC Tock video, I follow through and then saw these amazing
Speaker:results, which was really cool, because then I was able to share
Speaker:that with you with Tick Tock. And yeah, that's one of the
Speaker:other things look, tell. Tell me about that. Like with coaching,
Speaker:like do you feel like that helps keep you accountable for your
Speaker:energy and what you're doing as well?
Speaker:Oh, absolutely. Yeah. Because, and that's probably the best
Speaker:part of it, too, you know, is that I get to show my clients
Speaker:what's possible for them, you know, and you can look at that
Speaker:and see like, and think of it as a huge weight or responsibility,
Speaker:but I think of it I get fires me up, you know, it gets me really
Speaker:excited to like, No, I can't shrink back and play small
Speaker:because if I were my client, I wouldn't tell them to do you
Speaker:know, I would not put up with that. So, you know, situations
Speaker:and, you know, we're constantly I think what's funny about the
Speaker:555 method and the 333 method and writing things over and over
Speaker:again is that I do feel like it's that subconscious Reese
Speaker:like it's, it's how we can reset our subconscious mind. And if
Speaker:our subconscious mind is thinking about something all the
Speaker:time time it's a magnet to it, right? So it's like constantly
Speaker:pulling those things in. But what I think a lot of people
Speaker:don't realize is that there are so many subconscious things to
Speaker:work through that it's the process is really, I mean, the
Speaker:process of manifesting and growing and evolving and
Speaker:whatever is like it's constant. So for me, having a coaching
Speaker:container is that constant support that like that in a
Speaker:weird way that I need to be like, yeah, this is a practice
Speaker:that we're gonna keep doing and keep evolving, and keep up
Speaker:leveling and keep expanding.
Speaker:I love that. So on the topic of manifestation, something I hear
Speaker:a lot in kind of the manifestation community,
Speaker:or people who are trying to learn about manifestation
Speaker:is
Speaker:they get really discouraged if they're not
Speaker:feeling, you know, high vibe or not feeling like they're in this
Speaker:really positive space. And they feel like if they feel down
Speaker:ever, then like, everything is just going to collapse and it
Speaker:can't manifest anymore. What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker:Yeah, I run into that belief a lot too, or that misconception
Speaker:maybe. So. There is such beauty in experiencing the full
Speaker:spectrum of the human emotions. And always, always, always, our
Speaker:emotions are like, what are they? What are they really,
Speaker:they're a biochemical release in the body. What releases those
Speaker:biochemicals, those hormones that make us feel the emotion of
Speaker:sadness, or feel the emotion of anger, feel the emotion of
Speaker:guilt, or shame. It's a thought, it's a thought that triggers
Speaker:that right? So what thoughts are making me feel these emotions,
Speaker:and we were talking before we hit record on Shadow Work, and
Speaker:that's what Shadow Work is, is looking at those thoughts that
Speaker:triggered those emotions. And not saying I'm bad for having
Speaker:those thoughts, I shouldn't have those thoughts. I'm a strong
Speaker:woman, there's no way I should be feeling these emotions, you
Speaker:know, I, I, that goes through my mind all the time. Instead, you
Speaker:just look at them and observe them, and maybe even crazy, it's
Speaker:gonna sound crazy. But imagine that they are your inner child,
Speaker:imagine that they are your inner roommate, imagine that they're
Speaker:the voice, excuse me of your grandmother, right? or wherever
Speaker:that nagging, or that limiting belief or that self conscious
Speaker:thought came from. And really taking that emotion, taking that
Speaker:thought, taking that situation, whatever is triggering you, and
Speaker:separating it from you, and just allowing yourself to experience
Speaker:that to learn from it, to grow from it, to evaluate it, to
Speaker:integrate it. And what I'm talking about is, is the Shadow
Speaker:Work process that I kind of walk my clients through, and really
Speaker:taking those feelings that don't feel good, those thoughts that
Speaker:don't feel good, and integrating them into our path as something
Speaker:that I'm debating how far I should go into this. So maybe I
Speaker:should give an example. Like, okay, for what's going on in my
Speaker:life and example from my life right now, is I need to get some
Speaker:dental work done. I don't have health insurance, I because I'm
Speaker:a full time entrepreneur. And I just haven't gotten to that
Speaker:point yet where I've gotten myself some health insurance,
Speaker:that would probably even cover what it is that I need done. And
Speaker:so I keep telling myself this story, this limiting belief that
Speaker:I can't afford to get the dental work done that I need to or it's
Speaker:going to, you know, put me in some sort of financial stress.
Speaker:And so I put it off, I put it off and I'm in pain, it hurts to
Speaker:chew and I'm like, Wait a second, like, this is not me
Speaker:living my best life, right? Like, I'm experiencing something
Speaker:that does not feel good. And that is kind of perpetuated in
Speaker:my reality by the pain, the physical pain, but it's all the
Speaker:root of it's just like my limiting belief. So I look at
Speaker:that limiting belief. And I'm like, Where's this coming from?
Speaker:Like, where is this? I don't have enough or like scarcity
Speaker:mindset coming from because the truth is like I do have enough
Speaker:You know, if I actually looked at my bank account, like I have
Speaker:plenty To cover this and going through the process of like,
Speaker:shedding light on, whatever it is that's making you feel like
Speaker:shit, whatever it is that making you feel, or that that is caught
Speaker:that triggering those thoughts that's triggering those emotions
Speaker:that's allowing you to experience that low vibration,
Speaker:emotion and doing the work. Like that's the work of manifesting
Speaker:is like, yes, experience those emotions, experienced them to
Speaker:their fullest, but don't experience them for the rest of
Speaker:your life, like, do the processing now, and look at them
Speaker:shine light on them, there's probably going to need to be
Speaker:some sort of forgiveness involved other forgiveness of
Speaker:others forgiveness of self, and then some loving compassion for
Speaker:self love and compassion for others. And people. I mean, when
Speaker:I first heard about this process, and when I was first
Speaker:taken through this process with my mentor, I was like, this
Speaker:seems like is that all I have to do? You know, is that is that
Speaker:it? You know, and that issue, that
Speaker:thing that's holding you back, that limiting belief, that
Speaker:unhelpful story, that timeline that's been, you know, projected
Speaker:onto you by others in your life. All of that, if you just look at
Speaker:it, and you realize, like, Wait a second, I don't have to
Speaker:identify with that I don't have to carry that anymore. I don't
Speaker:have to, you know, let that be my story, I can actually create
Speaker:a new story and a new paradigm for my life and leaning into
Speaker:that. So it's a process of all of it, of experiencing those low
Speaker:vibe emotions, so that you can return to your natural state of
Speaker:experiencing love and experiencing that compassion
Speaker:that exists within all of us.
Speaker:Yeah, so really, using those kind of bad those, I don't like
Speaker:to say bad. But those feelings that are can be
Speaker:compartmentalised as bad. Has the learning experiences like
Speaker:oh, this isn't maybe something I should dig into a little bit
Speaker:more, this is something I should explore more like, why is this
Speaker:coming up? That's, I mean, I think you really hit the nail on
Speaker:the head with that one, that's really how you can use those
Speaker:feelings, those low vibe emotions, to manifest because
Speaker:when you actually accept them, that's the other thing is accept
Speaker:those feelings, you set it at the beginning, we are human, we
Speaker:are here to have a human experience. And part of being
Speaker:human part of the human experience, is feeling those
Speaker:things is feeling those emotions, and so being able to
Speaker:accept them and be like, Okay, I see you, I feel, you know, why
Speaker:are you here. And using that as a trigger, to instead of
Speaker:downward spiral, but using that as a trigger to learn more and
Speaker:to explore
Speaker:more.
Speaker:Absolutely, and the only reason why it's called Shadow Work, or
Speaker:why those things are in the shadow, meaning those emotions
Speaker:or topics or relationships that we don't want to discuss, like
Speaker:they're only in the shadow because we don't want to discuss
Speaker:them. Because we keep pushing them further and further down.
Speaker:But the issue is that they're still there, they're still in
Speaker:your energy body, and there's, you will probably find that they
Speaker:will continue to affect your manifestations until you shine
Speaker:light on them.
Speaker:Yeah, one of the kind of images that I like to use for that is
Speaker:if you're thinking about a dark cave, it's completely black put
Speaker:away, you can't see anything, but if you just like the tiniest
Speaker:little light, if you just like one little tea light candle in
Speaker:there, you're going to create massive illumination, in this
Speaker:case in this cave. And so what you're saying is when you accept
Speaker:and kind of shine that light on that shadow, you really kind of
Speaker:open, open it up and it just even just diving into it a
Speaker:little bit is going to help expand more and more. When you
Speaker:think about like the layers like I know for me in my journey,
Speaker:like there have been lots of things where I dive into and
Speaker:emotions and
Speaker:then I
Speaker:clear them and then later on they start coming up again when
Speaker:I have reached like another level. What do you think about
Speaker:kind of that? Yeah, absolutely. I'm actually reading this book
Speaker:called do less by Kate Northrup, and it's all about cycle
Speaker:sinking, so sinking your life and business With your menstrual
Speaker:cycle, and yeah, I'm loving it so far. And one of the things
Speaker:that she talks about, and she has this whole diagram, so you
Speaker:can imagine, like, you know, an upward slope, but on this upward
Speaker:slope are these loops. And the loops kind of signify our cycle,
Speaker:whether it's a menstrual cycle, the seasons, you know, however
Speaker:you want to think about it, the moon cycles. And as we go up,
Speaker:you know, where we're evolving, we're doing our shadow work,
Speaker:we're kind of processing and integrating those that the
Speaker:shadows and the things that don't no longer service. But
Speaker:yeah, they're going to come up again. But you're going to be at
Speaker:a higher consciousness at that point, and able to look at it
Speaker:and say, Oh, yeah, there's that there's that daddy issue again,
Speaker:or whatever it is, say, like, wow, I can either allow this to
Speaker:impact my decision and make a decision out of fear, or I can
Speaker:make a decision out of love. And just just because it's there,
Speaker:again, doesn't mean that it, you're starting from scratch,
Speaker:it's just, you're human, it's not gonna, you know, you're not
Speaker:a computer that we can just completely wipe clean, you don't
Speaker:want that. Gonna take some layers, I think that's a really
Speaker:great way to visualize it.
Speaker:Yeah, and like, you know, when you are coming back to it from
Speaker:that higher level of consciousness, like you can, you
Speaker:can heal it even deeper, you know, like, I feel like we can
Speaker:only heal based on our current level of understanding. And as
Speaker:we continue to grow, some things, you know, might come
Speaker:back up because we didn't fully get all the way to the core,
Speaker:because we just weren't there yet.
Speaker:Totally or like, as your as you progress on your journey and
Speaker:connection, more and more of the natural loving essence within
Speaker:you, you tap into more and more forgiveness. So maybe you've
Speaker:forgiven that person, you forgiven that person, you're
Speaker:like, I can release you, you know, you haven't like really
Speaker:forgiven them to the point where you feel that you can look back
Speaker:on that situation and only feel love for them and only feel
Speaker:compassion for where they were in their journey and the tools
Speaker:that they had access to at the time. Ah,
Speaker:man, I absolutely love all of this. Now, we were running,
Speaker:running on time here. So before we close out, I just want had a
Speaker:couple more questions for you. First, what is one thing that
Speaker:you're kind of struggling with in your business? And then what
Speaker:is one thing that you're super excited about in your business
Speaker:right now?
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:I love the this question. Because two questions. So one
Speaker:thing I am struggling with in my business I actually mentioned
Speaker:before is the cycle sinking. I my cycle has been kind of all
Speaker:over the place recently, and I'm taking a year long course and I
Speaker:are VEDA. To learn more about this, I am actively tracking it
Speaker:and doing my best to because when the whole purpose of cycle
Speaker:seeking is that you don't do much in your business when
Speaker:you're menstruating. Right, so if you can't if you don't know
Speaker:when you're going to menstruate, how do you plan out your and so
Speaker:I think maybe that brings up the larger issue is just the
Speaker:planning of my business. Like, I know what I need, you know, I I
Speaker:for the first time ever jameelah for the first time ever. for
Speaker:June, I wrote out every single day what I need to do my
Speaker:business and it feels so good, but that's what I've been
Speaker:struggling with. It's just that like, organization around the
Speaker:lifestyle that I want to lead chillon when I'm, you know, not
Speaker:feeling like engaging as much during that time of the month,
Speaker:but also just being able to show up in a way that serves my
Speaker:clients because I'm organized and fully planned out and
Speaker:feeling present and ready to go.
Speaker:I love that. And then what are you currently most excited about
Speaker:in your business? Yeah, I
Speaker:am most excited about my women's circles. So like I mentioned
Speaker:before, I've been all over the place when it comes to my
Speaker:offerings for the world and just trying to figure out what how I
Speaker:can serve best really with with my background and talents and
Speaker:gifts and passions. And these women's circles that I'm
Speaker:wrapping up the first round right now and the container that
Speaker:I've created has transformed these women's lives and it's
Speaker:blowing my damn mind. And I'm loving it. And I can't wait to
Speaker:launch the next round in June. And the next round after that in
Speaker:September, like I told you, I'm planning things out. So these
Speaker:women's circles there, it's an eight week program. And we
Speaker:basically learn how to leverage the power of collective
Speaker:manifestation through sisterhood. And we go through
Speaker:the manifestation process, and we talk about really hard
Speaker:topics, we do Shadow Work together, we hold space for one
Speaker:another. And we encourage and uplift one another. And it's
Speaker:been just been this beautiful support group for spiritual
Speaker:women online. So that's what I'm most excited about.
Speaker:That sounds super exciting. You made me excited just listening
Speaker:to you talk about it. That's how you know that it's an aligned
Speaker:and aligned offer right there. So Katie, where can people find
